JOHN SUFFER-, whose dis
covery sent the Washington
ianS on their way to Califor-
mia, died in Washington in
1880. at the old Mades' Hotel
at Third street and Pennsyl-
vania avenue N. w. That was
nine years before gold fever
hit the city again.
In the spring of 1888, a
Georgia miner named Kirk
came north and discovered
gold on the Harrison farm,
near Great Falls. A syndi-
cate headed by a DR.. w.
KempSter bought the prop
erty in 1889, and began work
ing 1t. Y
Reports that gold assayed
at from $12 to $50 a ton sent
the hopes of residents in the
area soaring. Most of the
people in the Great Falls
section fell victim to the gold
fever.
They hurried into their
farmlands to dig shafts and
prospect holes in some cases,
and in others to pan the
streams and do a little super
iicial digging. Most of the
prospecting was of the latter
variety, because it cost money
to sink mine shafts.
At about the same time,
in another section of Mont
gomery County, a, little north
of Great Falls, A. B. Russ of
Chicago, opened his Potomac
Mine.
He invested heavily in his
mine, and, as befitting a gold
miner, entertained lavishly.
In the winters he lived in the
National Hotel. In one room
of his suite there was a table
bearing samples of gold quartz
from his mine. n
In the summers, when most
of his entertaining was done,
he lived in a plushly fur
nished house at the gold mine
site.

NO MILLIONAIRES we're
made in the Great Falls gold
rush. Mr.. Russ, and others
like him, went broke. Some
made a profit, but that profit
was small. 1t cost too much
to get the gold out.
There still are reminders
of the gold fever.
The property where DR..
Kempster had his mine still
is known as the Gold Mine
property. 1t was in the news
recently as one site being
urged as the new location for
the Geological Survey.
Last month almost touched
off a new squirt when a piece
of quartz that looked as If it
had gold in it was found at
the Taylor Model Basin. That
turned out to be iron pyrite

But perhaps the most
permanent reminder is in the
bed Of Macarthur boulevard.
At one time that road was
macadamized with gold quartz
which a Geological Survey
man said would assay out at
about SIT a ton.

LONDON (JTA)-Nikita a
Khruschev, head of the Soviet
Communist Party, refused to
discuss reports of anti-Semit-

termed them nonsense"
The question was raised by
Hugh Gaitskell, chairman of
the British Labor Party, at a
dinner given the two Soviet
leaders by the l. a bor Party,
who asked for easing of anti
Semitism in the Soviet bloc
states. Mr.. Khruschev's reply
was termed "uncompromising

Labor Committee in the U. S.
that he query the Soviet lead

The Petal paper. [volume] (Petal, Miss.) 1953-19??, 1956-10-11

All trees do not produce SO many,
but all do produce many more
than can possibly find favorable
situations for growth.
Other Uses
By its scheme for perpetuating
any given species of tree, nature
makes it possible for many ami
mails and microscopic plants to
live. While all parts of the plant
body may contribute to the live
lihood of many animals such as
insects, the seeds and fruits form
substantial part of the diet of
many larger animals. It would be
difficult to evaluate the contribu-
ton OF acorns to the feeding of a
deer, bear, a wild hog, a wild
turkey, or the many other species
OF animals that feed on them.
Our song birds depend extern
sively on the fruit harvest of GER
tain trees for their living when
insects become scarce. An illus
tration of this is a blackgum tree
(nyssa sylvatica) about 20 feet
tall and having an umbrella shap-
ed crown about 20 feet in diam
eter that had approximately 65,-
quo berries on it in the summer
OF 1949. During August of that
year the song birds began to feed
on them. A half dozen species of
birds could be seen visiting the
tree IN a quarter hour, and some
times that many at one time.
Included among the visitors in
the black gum tree were knocking
birds, catbirds, brown thrushes
bluejays, cadinals and others
They could be seen taking 8 or
berries and then leave. This pro-
cess went on all day. Before the
leaves had fallen not a single
berry could be seen on that tree
This year it had about 10000 ber-
rles IN July and now it has none.
Variety of Fruits and Harvesters
There are approximately 1,1OC
trees and shrubs native to the
forests in the United States. There
are some introduced species which
escaped and have gone wild or
naturalized. Each of these are
making contribution to the feed
ing of our wildlife of this country
The Petal paper. [volume] (Petal, Miss.) 1953-19??, 1956-10-11

An example of an introduced spel
cies that was brought over here
as an ornamental is the Chimes
talloW tree (Sapium sebiferum).
During the spring when it is in
full bloom the nectar is in great
demand by honeybees and much
honey is made from it. In the fall
when ducks return for the winter
season, they feed on the fruits
which fall off in great numbers
and quantity.
There is considerable range in
the size of the seeds on native
trees and shrubs. Perhaps the ex-
tremes would be the rhododen-
cron which has powderlike seeds
and black walnuts which are an
inch IN diameter. Many shapes,
colorS, textures and other charac-
teristics can be seen. The naked
seed plants as the conifers are
called Gymnosperms. Such trees
as our pines are typical represen-
tatives. The seeds are dry fruits
and many are equipped with
wings with which they may be
transported long distances by the
wind
Some seeds are inclosed in
fleshy fruits while others have
dry coverings of scales as in the
case of hickory nuts or pods as
the redbud. Each type served its
purpose in protecting the seed or
in insuring the distribution of it.
Season. Distribution. Etc.
Generally we look on the au-
tumn as seed time and harvest,
and for good reason. More seeds
and fruits are matured at this
season than at all other combined,
but each season has its contribu-
ton to make toward the harvest.
The fall has the maturing of our
PiAiSo, ooho, 11ShO1yo, Wo1lIo1o,
sycamores, poplars, sweetgums,
blackgums, and many others. If
we would gather seeds for our
own paintings, this is the time to
do it. But some of these seeds and
fruits cling on or may be found
at later dates.
The type of fruit is usually
helpful in the distribution of
seeds. Seeds having fleshy fruits
are frequently eaten by animals
and are scattered far and wide by
them. Dry fruits with wings as
naples, elms, pines and others
depend on the wind for dispersal.
The squirrels carry acorns, hick-
DRY nuts and walnuts and bury
them. This is their means of be-
ing scattered.

The Forest Seed Harvest

The forests yield many products
for man. AS our civilization moves
onward our demands on forests
increase. New products are devel-
oped each year which require
some part of the yield of the
trees. We more frequently thing
of the wood and the wood prod
ucts derived from trees. Lumber,
pulp, polesA crossties, mine tim
bers, fence posts, furniture and
thousands of lesser articles give
the wood the greater commercial
value in dollars. There is the out
er value of trees that cannot be
evaluated in this medium.
The seed crop has its values in
perhaps as many, but different,
ways as the wood. Let us consider
what use is made of the seeds of

the forest trees. Without seeds for
the propagation of the species,
forests would soon vanish from
the earth. Pines would be here
less than two centuries, oaks,
beeches, naples and few others
would be here less than three CEN
turtles. Even the giant sequoias
and redwoods would last shorter
period than our civilization has
existed. This is the long-lived
group. The shorter lived trees
would begin to make the forest
liik thin in Is to so years.
Natures plan of perpetuating
the forests is by producing an
over supply of seeds each year.
This is illustrated by the seeds
produced on mature, large, black
willow tree. The estimate of one
years crop was 100000 seeds.

Notes

Elsie H. Butler

Have you discovered a short
time after hanging new or freshly
Numbered white nylon curtains
that they look greyish?
Does your plastic upholstery
seem to be constant dust
catcher?
Here's one reason for this: Eric
ton causes static electricity in
synthetic fibers. This charge is
slightly negative and dust has a
positive charge. Thus, dust that
is stirred up in a room is attracted
to them, as iron is to a magnet.
Most manufacturers are solving
this problem by using perma-
nent anti-tatic finish.
To eliminate the dust catching
habits Of your nylon curtains or
plastics that do not have this fin
ish, add a few drops of vinegar to
the rinse water when washing.
The vinegar acts as an anti-static
solution and eliminates the at
traction for dust.
