The Waning Hardwood Supply.
Although the demand for hard
w ood lumber is greater than ever
before, the annual cut to-day is a
billion feet less than it was seven
years ao. In this time the
wholesale nrice of the different
classes of hardwood lumber ad
vancttd from 25 to C5 per cent
The cut of oak. which in 1800
was more than half the total cut
of hardwoods, has fallen off 36
rr cent. Yellow rtonlar. which
was formerly second in point of
output, has fallen off 38 percent,
and elm has fallen off one-half.
The cut of softwoods is over
four times that of hardwoods,
vet it is doubtful if a shortage in
the former would cause dismay
in so many industries. The co
operatfp. furniture, and vehicle
industries depend upon hardwood
timber, and the railroads, tele
phone and telegraph companies,
agricultural implement manufac
turers, and builders use it exten
sively. This leads to the question,
Where is the future supply of
hardwoods to le found? The cut
in Ohio and Indiana, which, sev-
I II i 1 A A I
en years ajro, leu ail oilier hiaies,
has fallen olf one-half. Illinois,
Iowa. Kentucky. Michigan, Min
nesota. Missouri. New Jersey,
Tennessee, Texas, West Virginia
and Wisconsin have also declined
in 'hardwood production. The
chief centers of production now
lie in the Lake states, the lower
Mississippi valley, and the Appa
lachian mountains. Yet in the
Lake states the presence of hard
woods is an almost certain indi
cation of rich agricultural land
and when the hardwoods are cut
the land is turned permanently to
agricultural use. In Arkansas,
IiOiu'siana. and Mississippi the
production of hardwoods is clear
ly at its height, and in Missouri
and Texas it has aleady begun to
decline.
The answer to the question,
therefore, would seem to lie in
the Appalachian mountains.
They contain the largest body of
hardwood left in the United
States. On them grow the great
est variety of tree sixties any
where to be found. Protected
from fire and reckless cutting,
they produce the best kinds of
timber, since their soil fflid cli
mate combine to make heavy
stands and rapid growth. Yet
much of the Appalachian forest
has been so damaged in the past
that it will be years before it
will again reach a high state of
productiveness. Twenty billion
feet of hardwoods will be a con
servative estimate of the annual
productive capacity of the 75,
HX),(XK) acres of forest lands in
the Appalachians if they were
rightly managed. Until they are
we can exiect a shortage in
hardwood timber.
Circular 11(5, of the Forest Ser
vice, entitled "The Waning
Hardwood Supply," discusses
this situation. It may be had

"We hear it frequently assert
ed that if persons will impress
the thought firmly upon their
minds and continue thinking
nlnnit it until they have fallen
asleep when they desire to awake
at a certain time in the morning
that they will do so, but how
many have tried that method of
insuring a prompt awakening at
a given hour in the morning only
to find their rest throughout the
night disturbed and uneasy?
"The brain will usually re
spond to the will and awaken one
in the morning near the desired
hour under any circumstances,
but to prevent the broken, uneasy
sleep the adoption of only a very
simple device is necessary. Thei
last thing before getting into bed
take n watch or clock and turn,'
the hands to the hour at which
one wishes to rise and gaze at
this just long enough to fix the
hour firmly on the retentive mem

A Queer Lizard.
An extraordinary reptile habit la de
scribed In a book by K. L. Dltmars of
the New York Zoological park. A large
Mexican horned Heard, excited by an
attempt to measure It, emitted a rasp
ing sound and expelled a Jet of blood,
which struck a wall four feet away
and formed a trail of 103 large spots
along the floor. Tbe blood came from
the eyelid, momentarily much swollen.
Shooting blood from tbe eye has been
long attributed to this creature, but It
seems so rare that naturalists have
doubted Its reality.
Mexican Horse Hoods.
The automobile horn walled mourn
fully, and the horse began to rear and
back.
"Whoa, there!"
The driver pulled a tiny attachment
to the right rein and a hood fell from
the animal's forehead down over hi
eyes. Instantly then It became lamb
like. "A Mexican Idea," said the driver.
"In Mexico all spirited horse wear
these hoods that at the flint sign of
trouble can be dropped. It la a good
thing. It has saved thouaands of
lives." Kansas City Independent
