The bureau of forestry hns contin ued this year on a far largor scale the experiments in timber seasoning and preservation which it bogan last year uiH.er fir. Hermann von Schrenk. This summer the work will un carried on in many states East. South, and West and will be broadoned In scope and made even more morougn than before. This work will be done for the New York Central, the Erie, the Baltimore & Ohio, and the Pennsyl vania railroads in the East; and for the Illinois Central, the Santa Fe. the St. lnuls & San Francisco, the Missouri, Kansas & Texas; the North ern Pacific, and the Burlington in the South aud West. The scarcity of valuable timbers is ; felt by no class of consumers more 1 keenly than by the railroads, which use every year lUUHKUHMJ ties mere ly to renew those worn out and de cayed. The price of timbers has risen in some instances to a figure which makes their use prohibitive; in other 1 cases the supply is so nearly exhaust- j eii that the roads have been compel!-1 ed to look about for new timbers. The bureau of forestry has been ! railed on to assist in solving the dif ficulty, and has come forward with j no very practical and simple sugges-. tion that the railroads, instead ot I ' imtinuing to use expensive, high-1 grade timbers for such a low-grade purpose as that of railroad ties, shall use the cheaper woods. For example o the complaint of the New York Central that it Bnds it more and more difficult to secure the long-leaf pine tie trotn Georgia at the price it can afford to pay, the bureau suggests thai the road use the beech, maple, and birch of the Adirondacks. The complaint that the timbers rot very quickly when laid in the ground is answered by the suggestion that they should be seasoned and preserved, just as beech is seasoned and pre served in France. The Great Eastern Itallroad of France has succeeded in making beech ties las! 35 years ,iy impregnating them with tar ous. The unseasoned long-leaf pine ties used by the New York Central last only five years; and the heech if laid green, without seasoning or preserv ing, would In many cases last no 1 more than three years. The substance of the proposal which the bureau has made to the railroads, and which the railroads has thought so well of as to adopt, is that experiments be mode to determine whether cheajier timbers may be treated with preservatives at a cost ! so low nnd be made to last such a long time, that It will pay to substi tute them for the more expensive tim bers now employed. The railroads have thought bo well of these Ideas that they will not only carry on under the bureau's direction the necessary experiments in season ing and preserving, but have engaged the bureau's help in learning where cheap timbers for ties may be obtain ed. In other words, the railroads have decided that if they can be con vinced that it will pay to season and preserve cheap timbers for ties, they will acquire large areas of timber lands on which they will grow their own trees, cut their own ties, and thus be usaured of a steady supply. This means that some of the great railroads of the country are in a fair way to practice forestry ou a very large scale, and to employ a groat many foresters. The present method of purchasing railroad ties can not long continue. It Is becoming more and more hazard ous to rely on what may be obtained on the market for the reason that the market Is becoming mure and more unwilling to let its timbers go as railroad ties when as sawed lum ber they would bring a higher price. Eastern roads often have to haul their ties us far us 700 miles. It is absolutely necessary that sup plies be grown nearer home aud that there be a certainty of how much can be obtained. A railroad that noeds half a million ties on short notice must have Uioho ties at any price and is often comiielled to pay far more than they are worth, The great ad vantage to the railroad of growing hk own ties and practicing forestry would Im- that It would know to a certainty jusi how many ties it could count on I every year and how much they would cost. The experiments in seasoning the lodge-iwle pine, carried on last year tor the Burlington railroad in Boar Canyon, Montana, and Shondan, Wyo,. have been continued this year. I.nst yeur It wus found thut 3! per cent of the weight of the ties was lost by open-air drying, which resulted in an enormous saving in freight. caw wsev: . -r. - Is the most prac tical Typewriter tor SCHOOL or BUSINESS pur poses 1 A II D P AUbE Us writing is always VISIBLE, the work is right "before the eyes"fr I the first letter struck until the communication is finished I No heavy carriage to lift or slam.

Invention Which Promises to Revolu tionize Business World. The wlroless telography typewriter Is the latest application to industrial uses of the ethereal wavo system of communication across spaco. Tho forcfathor of the Invention was n du plicating device with wire connection, whicn was t'xhibited some yean, ago beloi. various si . entitle bodies. With 'hai apparatus one dispatch ing a message wrote it upon a gela tin pad. with a metallic stylus. A duplicate pad was attached to the other extremity of the wire. Upon this second pad a facsimile of the written message appeared in electri cal tracing, the letter inscribed upoi the sending pad being instantaneous ly reproduced. The wireless type writer is an application of this prin ciple. Instead of using a stylus, the send ing operator merely writes his mes sage on an ordinary typewriter hav ing polnr connections. As the com munication is tapped off, a sympa thetic connection through the ether is formed with another typewriter which dots down the corresponding letters. In the case of the model and first working apparatus, wireless it was in the depot rostaurant of connections were established between one of the great railroads. "Mr. various apartments in a large Indus- Kaatt." said the sweet singer, "why trial works. do you stand up while drinking your As the transmitting typewriter nets eotTee?

It i more certain than the telephone, for It leaves a permanent rocord. Should It be carried out in imaglim tion to indefinite possibilities, the re sult is startling. The mail service would bo abolish ed. millions lost In money to govern ments and to manufacturing concern biipplylng writing materials would be saved, tne telegraph would be super seded, an army ot the world's work ers would lie thrown out of cmplov ment In fact, Its potential possibili ties are unlimited. However, the de vice is stla in its experimental stage.
