DRAIN ON THE FORESTS We Are Cutting Them Three Times as Fait as They Are Qrowlng. 650,000.000 ACEES OF WOODLAND Cheapness and Abundance of Timber Has Made Us Reckless In Its Use. "The total yearly drain upon our forest, not counting losses from fires, storms, and Insects, Is some twenty billion cubic feet," says R. S. Kellogg, assistant forester In charge of the of fice of forest statistics, In a publica tion Just Issued by the Forest Service on "The Timber Supply of the United States." "Our present forest area of 550 mil lion acres may be roughly estimated to consist of 200 million acres of ma ture forests, In which the annual yro-wth Is balanced by death and de cay, of 250 mllllqn acres partially cut or burned over, on which, with rea sonable care, there Is sufficient young' growth to produce In the cpurse of time a merchantable, -but not a full crop of timber, and 100 million acres of more severely cut and burned over forests, on which there Is not suffi cient growth to produce another crop of much value. "Taken as a whole, the annual growth of our forests under these con ditions does not exceed twelve cubic feet per acre, a total of less than seven billion cubic feet. That Is, we are cut ting our forests three times as fast as they are growing. There 19 men ace in the continuance of such condi tions. While we niight never reach absolute timber exhaustion, the un restricted exploitation of our forests In the past has already had serious effects, and It will have much worse If U Is allowed to continue unchecked. "White pine, for Instance, which was once considered lnhaustible, has fallen off seventy per cent In cut since 18&0, and more than forty-five per cent since 100. 'The cut of oak, our most valuable hardwood lumber, has decreased sixteen per cent since 1900, and that of yellow poplar twenty-two per cent The same story will be told of other woods If they are not con serred. "The fact that timber has been cheap and abundant has made us careless of its production and resckless In Its use. We take 250 cubic feet of wood per capita annually from our forests, while Germany uses only thirty-seven cubic feet, and France but twenty-flve. On the other hand, Germany, who has learned her lesson, makes her state forests produce an average of forty- eight cubic feet of wood per acre. We have as fast-growing species as Gar- many, or faster, and as good or better forest soil If we protect it. "The necessity for more farm land may eventually reduce our total for est area to 100 million acres less than It Is at present. It Is entirely possi ble, however, to produce on 450 mil lion acres as much wood as a popula tes much greater than we have now will really need If all the forest land Is brought to Its highest produc ing capacity and if the product is economically and completely utilized. But to reach the necessary condition of equilibrium between timber produc tion and consumption will take many years of vigorous effort by individual forest owners, by the States, and by the National Government. None of them can solve the problem alone; all must work together." HOME OF HISTORY AT LEIPZIG. Especially Strong; In Ita Collection of American Material. A few years ago the new lnstltut for Kultur and universal history of the university of Leipzig, under the direc tion of Prof. Lamprecht, was opened. I Is especially favored In its site, for tho building itself, as its outwara ap pearance Indicates, is of especial his torical interest. For what true citizen of Leipzig does not know the "Golden Bear," that remarkable old house on the Universltatsstrasse, which liern uard Breltkopf, the founder of the firm of Breltkopf A Hartel, erected in t"3C for business purposes, and which later became the seat of the Breltkopf . Hartel bookstore? asks a correspond ent of the Hartford Courant. In the scond story of this building above the ! Etore Gottsched lived until his death, in The year 1767 Gottsched, to whom, as Goethe in his "Wahrheit und Bicb- tans" says, the elder Breltkopf had j promised a lifelong dwelling In the second story of the "Golden Bear" be cause of the great advantages his store offered In Gothic manuscripts, transla tions and other such aslstances. In order to enake the acquaintance of Gottsched, Goethe visited this house In 1766, In consequence of which we nave that happily drawn sketch !a "Wahrheit und Dlchtung." Wha Goethe said In this passage about th's dwelling will seem even to-day credible to the visitors of this house, which In the last summer has undergone n itoration. It Is still to-day "ein .n sft'nnllches Gehaude." although It Is only three stories high and surround ed by four or five storied modern houses, and the words "sehr anstaadVs" which Goethe used In describing Gott sched's apartments apply still to the rooms of the new lnstltut. Naturally, the history of the German nation has the largest section devoted to It and all branches of Its history are well represented. The collection of material for United States history la by far the best in Germany and sn excellent selection. Besides the Ger man and American sections the llbrarj Is especially strong In Its collection of Belgian, English colonial, East Asiatic and a still more remarkable collection In the Chinese and Japanese sections, another remarkable fact about the li brary is that the books here deal not only with political, constitutional and economical history, but also with tht hiBtory of art, music, sculpture, relig ion, education, manners and customs. The idea Is that a knowledge of all th different kulture branches is necessary really to understand the history of a people. So we find here an unusually rich assortment of art collections, at lases, same 140,000 drawings by chil dren from all nations, family letters of the earlier centuries, many that cannot be found elsewhere. y$fekcience asByiivciuiuii Prizes will be offered at the coming German aeronatlcal exposition for i metal lighter than aluminum, but re taining its solidity, and for balloor halls of various types. The two battleships authorized bj the last Congress, which will be laid down next fall, will carry heavier bat teries than any other warships afloai or ordered by any nation. To measure the amount of air ad mltted through cracks In buildings t novel instrument has been devised shaped like a funnel and carrying f small anemometer In its nozzle. While the forests of the United States are Increasing at the rate ol 7,000,000,000 cubic feet a year, th country Is using 23,000,000,000 cubl feet of wood each twelve months. A simple fire escape patented by ar Iowa woman consists of a spool ovei which a rope is wound two or.thret times. At one end of the rope Is t seat, the occupant of which lowen himself with the other end, thtf frlo tlon of the spool checking the rapidity of descent. At Nelson, British Columbia, a large electric smelter 1b now at work rs duclng mixed ores of lead and zinc The ore Is first crushed to the size ol wheat grains, and then roasted, bj which process most of the sulphur If removed. From the roaster the or goes to the electric furnace, which melts it into slag. The lead, sinking through the slag, passes Into a crucible, the zinc takes the gaseous form ant! is led Into condensers, from which 11 Is ladled out Into pigs. Exaggerated Ideas have been enter talned, according to the opinion ol F. A. Lucas, concerning the prodigious size of the ancient mammoths, whos remains have been found In Alaska and Siberia. It is a mistake, he says to ascribe to them a greater size thar that of the modern elephant. He be lieves that no Siberian mammoth ha been found with a greater height, at the shoulders, than 9 feet 6 Inches Indian elephants occasionally attain this height, whereas the African ele phrnt often stands 11 feet at th shoulders, and sometimes slightly more. The real giants among fossl! elephants were found In southern Eu rope and the western and southwest ern parts of the United States. These stood "from 12 feet 6 inches to possi bly 13 feet 6 inches high." The constantly growing Important of India rubber in various industries makes the question of the cultivation of the rubber plant, as well as thai of the production of "synthetic rub ber," one of general interest The In vestigatlons of Herbert Wright appeal to show that the wild Para rubber h superior to that produced from cult 1 vated trees. "A wise manufacturer.' says Mr. Wright, "would not dare t buy fifty tons of cultivated rubber and store It for six months, for fear o! grave deterioration in quality, but he would buy thousands of tons of up river fine Para with a full knowledge that It would grow better in storage.' As to synthetic . rubber, Mr. Wright aski how we can have that when we do not yet fully understand the chem leal composition of the components o! natural rubber. Mode In Xerr York.
