THE present low price for hemlock logs for
lumber and pulp mill uses has centered interest
in~the Pacific Northwest in a branch of the
numbering industry long known and practiced
in the East, the preparation of bark for tam
ming purposes The bark of the hemlock has
served for generations as a profitable source
of the tannic acid used by the tanners.
Years ago, before there any shortage
in lumber even thought about, it was the prac-
tice of tanning bark interests to fell large trees,
gather the bark and leave the trunks to rot in
the woods The growth of the acetic acid in
dustry however changed this condition and the
logs in time came to be the principal product
sought. Tan bark, however, once again gives
promise of coming into its own as profitable
by-product of the Pacific numbering.

Lands laid waste in the eastern por-
ton Of the United States during the
devastating drought Of 1880. particu-
larly in the farming sections about
Washington, have been practically re-
stored to normal by the heavy rainfall
of the past Fall and this Winter, it was
stated today by Joseph B. Kincer OF
the climate and crop division OF the
United States Weather Bureau
Heavy rains and snow that have fall
len during the last four months of 1892
UP to noon today. had poured into the
ground, some to seep down and replen-
ish the underground moisture and some
to flow away. almost 10 inches more
than the average for this period.
In the last four months 2l.57 inches
of rain have fallen. and the total for
the year has been 47.58 inches.
Khcer, has put the ground in such
shape that the farmer can regard his
land as normal again.
For the entire year, according to
Weather Bureau figures. the local rain
fall has been 7.06 inches above normal.
with the only thing that approached
a drought occurring in August, when
only 1876 inches of rain fell, compared
with an average of 40l inches.
The heavy rains Of the Fall started
in September, which, with a recorded
precipitation in Washington and sur
rounding territory of 4-24 inches. was
exactly one inch above normal Almost

with an average precipitation for that
month of 2.84 inches. The heavy fall
continued in November, with total OF
6.43 inches, compared with an average
of 81, and up to noon yesterday the
December rainfall had been $50 inches,
compared with an average OF 3,32.
Mr.. Kincer pointed out, however that
not all the damage done by the drought
has been repaired by nature. but that
so far as crops are concerned the con-
ditions again are normal. TIE surface
areas have been well-saturated for
many feet down. he declared, and this
water is gradually seeping farther into
the ground to replen,sh the deep wells
that are not yet up to the levels of
the days before the drought. There is
enough water he believes. seeping down
to them at present to bring those wells
up to normal, with the help of anything
like normal rainfall in the months to
come.
The replenishing Of the moisture far
below the surface, dried out by the
whitening heat and the almost total
lack of rainfall in the Summer of 1880,
is e long process, and it would be diff
cult to predict just when the deep
wells. of from go to 100 feet, will re-
turn to normal. In some instances they
are already normal but this has been
due to peculiar local conditions rather
than a general seeping down Of mois-
ture.
1T would be safe to say" declared
Mr. Kincer. that so far as surface
conditions are concerned, the land is
back 10 normal

Ground work fer the charity ball that

women with whom the inaugural chair
man, Admiral Cary T. GraySon, has

was announced today.
Admiral Grayson said today invita-
tons to take part in the planning of the
ball have been sent out to several prom
inent women. and others will go out as

except that 1t will BE- for charity. and
that, while Gov Roosevelt IS not ex-
pected to attend. he will be represented
by members of his family.
Men will be added to the Ball Com
mittee later. but the initial steps are
being taken by women.
Various other plans for the inaugural

REFUSES TO GIVE
COURT AFF|DAV|TS
Duke, Charging FaIsifying Of
Record in Appeal, De-
Clines Invitation.

Jesse c. Duke, lawyer, who filed
charges against District Supreme Court
Justice F. D. Let's and United States
Attorney Leo A. Rover Of falsifying q
record on appeal in liquor case and
who had been invited by the Court Of
the charges for hearing early in jan
uary, today declined to accept the In
vitation of the court.
The lawyer points out that the Court
Of Appeals has had the record Of the
trial before it since last August and
has net decided the questions raised
by his complaint. The suggestion to
now restate the matter in a different
form, he claims, would merely furnish
opportunity for further delay by the
court and would render moot a pro-
ceeding now pending In the United
States Supreme Court asking man
damus against the appellate tribunal
Such proceeding, he AYERS, would stul-
tify himself
Duke insists the only question to be
decided by the Court of Appeals IS con-
tanned in the record of the trial and h
expresses willingness to stand on that
record and invites Justice Let's, Mr.
Rover and the Court Of Appeals to
stand on their records.
These records" Duke asserts in con-
clusion, "cannot be changed, and by
these records we will all be judged"
The United States Supreme Court
has cited the members of the Court of
Appeals to show cause January why a
mandamus should not be issued against
them
Duke has also filed impeachment pro-
ceedings before the House of Represent
atives against Let's and Rover.
