Thla I the whit birch, sometimes
railed the paper blrcb or cauoe birch,
since It furnished the Indians tbe ma
terial for tlielr ranimia cauoe. The
opluloo baa been veutured by the for
est service that more white blrcb I
now growing In the United State than
waa th case Sis) years ago. It spreads
rapidly over spaces left bare by forest
Area, but It la abort lived tree and
doea not prosper where It ba to com
pete wltb other tree for light and soil.
No other wood aa hard aa blrcb can lie
worked with ao little dulling of the
tools, and thla quality, with Ita hand
some color and Ita failure to warp after
seasoning, makes It iniicb used In tbe
manufacture of various novelties. Prac
tically all spools are made of blrcb. and
In Maine alone, which la the chief seat
of thla Industry, some 800.0UO.OUO spool
are turned out ench yenr. Harper's.
Oil From Shale.

about 400 feet below tbe surface. Tbe

Edinburgh and Glasgow. It la known
a tho oil Held of West Cnlder. The
deposits are extensive and believed to
be Inexhaustible. This oil shale la
mined as con I la mined. In vurious
pnrts of the Held there nre shale crush
ing works similar to the coul breukers
In our iinthmclte coal fields. To these
works the shale la run na It Is mined
and broken up Into small pieces, the
crude oil being extracted nt the crush
ers. The crude oil of the Scottish pe
troleum shales we would rail tar over
here, it Is so thick and black, but from
It the rcllncrs obtain illunilnatliig oil,
lubricating oil, ammonia und puratUu.
