The timber owners and manufacturers will be interested in the results of the LfltflMn, Bln,iaa nf nnmm . . ... tre)8 which the Forest Service of the tt u r U. 8. Department of Agriculture ib mak mg. rbe studies are not confined ex clusively to tbe well-known trees of recognized value, but, owing to the rapid decrease in the supply ot our valuable woods, include those cheape woods whose properties are imperfsctly known. Such studies of the tapelo gum and western hemlock have done much to overcome the common prejudice against these species and have added materially to their commercial portance. im Commercial tree studies begin with the tree in the torest and follow it all the way to the finished propuct in the ma'ket. The intermediate steps are many and complex, but a little expla nation of them may not be amiss, since they typify tbe field methods of a forest inve8t'Batlon The selection of a suitable place is tbe first step. In this the aim is to obtain average conditions as far as possible. When the range of the species to be studied is small, one locality may be sufficient, but generally it is necessary to take at least two localities, the data from which, if similar, can be thrown " 1 u,B'"ul' UU11" BePeraie ,or 'ent regions within the range of the Bpec,e8, For examP,e-the yellow popular, or tulip-tree, has a very wid raD b t t d - h tfa 8 ' 0 a 7 01 118 growin wauiu bdow veryainereni re8Ulca in lDe or,D ana in ,De !sontb An Keng "e rate or growtn oi a T ... . ... 8pecieB the annual riD2S on the 8tumpB are counted and the. difltancn bPfWPpn are counted and the. distance between each tenth ring is accurately measured. In other words, beginning atthe outside of the stump, the rings are counted in ward along the average radius, which is obtained by actnal measurement and indicated by a pencil line. The layers of ten rings are marked off ,a!ong this line and then the distance to each mark from the center of the pitch is measured and tallied. Additional data as to the relative width of sapwood and heart wood, the width of the bark, the height of the stump, and so forth, are obtained at the same time. These figures are taken for a great many stamps, in order to secure a fair average. The results show the growth ot the average tree inside the bark at the average stump height In order to re ducethisto diameter growth outside the bark at breastheight i feet above the ground,) the taper of tbe average tree must be known. This ie fonudj by measuring the diameter of a great many trees at 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 feet above tbe ground and averaging the results. The bark width is already known, so that all that is necessary is to add to it the figure obtained for srrowth inside the bark and subtract the loss through the taper between stumpbeight and breast height. As a rule, a number of seedlings are measured to find out how long they have taken to reach stumpheight. Fy adding this period to the ace of the average tree on the stump the measurement of the height growth of the average tree is complete. This would not be tha ca?e excePl fr a peculiarity in tree growth. A given point on tne trunn never moves upward with the growth of the tree. Only the tip grows, and a nail driven into the trunk at a given height will hold the same height always. The taper measurements also serve as a guide for fixing the proper height of stump in felling, so as to avoid waste but still get above the stump-swelling peculiar to some species. Frequently felled trees are treasured, noting the diameter breastbih, the length fir distaLCd without branch's, the "clear" and actual merchantable lengths, and the total heigrhtof the tree. Where this is done in conjunction with the stump analyses, s. table of age and height is readily made fr m the table of age and breasthigh diameter already . explained. In order to apply the tables described. the stand cn average acres of different types of land is determined by means ef sample plots, usually of an acre each. on which the diameter of every tree is carefully measured and tallied. The future yield on average acres is then figured out from the diameter growth. tables and tabulated by decades. Cutting over an area oftea markedly increases the growth of the remiiuing trees, eo that a eeparate yield table is requentlv made for second erowth af ec fumbering. This forms an excellent basis for an estimate of the future stand on logged areas. Besides the more purely technical matters of the life history ot tbe tree; tbe bpst methods ot management and reproduction; the distribution of the species; the soundness; the damage by re, wind, insects and fungi; and the general form and development of the species, a study of the methods of lumbering is undertaken, especially is regards waste and damage to young growth. Finally, a market study is made throughout tbe range of the species. Figures are obtained by measurement at some mill of the actual cut and grade n board feet of the logs from trees pre viously marked in the woods. From, these measurements the actual value of trees of all diameters is found. The present uses of the timber are looked np, and the practicability of extending its UBes substituting it for other species is considered. In connection with this, timber tests of the wood are made at one of the Government timber testing; laboiatories. To sum up, every detail and aspect of the problem receives careful attention in these commercial tree studies, since) it is their especial object to set forth alt facts that will assist forest owners in managing and improving their timber- lands. U1RLS DON'T WORK. ESOICH Think Too Much of Clothes, Saysi Hetty tireen. New York, Aug. 18. Young girla of today are too extravagant. They think too much about'clothes and they don 'I have enoogb to do. If they bad some useful work to oc upy their thoughts they would not run to such ex travagance." So spoke Mrs. Hetty Green, the world's gieateet woman financier, when asked her opinion on some topics of current interest. From her corner in Chemical National Bank, she watched the tide of girls, ycung and old, ia Summer finerv turning toward Brooklyn bridge and Coney Island. "I speak from experience," ehe'added- "Ferhaps you don't know it, but I was quite a belle when I was young. But L outgrew all that sort of tiling.
