Lum berm en T e ll of Business Ilia. Portland— Untoward conditioua con tributing to present stagnation in the lumber industry absorbed much atten tion at a hearing of the federal trade commission held here. Mill men, lum ber exporters and bankers gave their views as to causes of the troubles of the lumber trade, and unanimity of view was noticeably lacking. Over production, overspeculation in stump- age, shortage of available tonnage for export and general financial stringen cy were variously assigned by those who spoke as being, in their respec tive opinions, the chief cause of the dulness. Evidence also was taken regarding conditions in the grain business, and other speakers explained to the com- mission the difficulties that Oregon fruit growers and shippers have re cently encountered in finding profit able markets.

Mount Vernon, the Home of Washington (From the Washington Herald, April 17) The beauties of Mount Vernon, and a short account of its interesting history are written about in an exceptionally delightful way in the above-named book of about fifty pages. The author shows himself to be thoroughly acquainted with the subject, and in an easy manner takes one from Washington to Mount Vernon, there to depict in detail the well-marked points of the greatest object of interest. Although the book is writ ten from a litterarv standpoint, as is evidenced by a concise and graceful style, it would well act as a guide for the pilgrim visiting Mount Vernon for the first time, and especially so for the visitor who has a deep regard for the traditions which clothe the nation's greatest shrine. P o rk H e ld N ot Infected. Portland.— Portland's recent hog cholera scare was without foundation. Bacteriological tests of four hogs con fiscated by the health bureau on sup position that they were slaughtered while infected with cholera showed under tests that the real trouble was overfeeding and overheated condition when slaughtering took place. The outward appearances of hogs slaught ered under these conditions and hogs suffering from cholera are similar. The hogs were shipped to Portland from Yamhill by a farmer.

Washington.— Acceptances of the Pan-American plan for restoring peace and government in Mexico are expect ed by officials here in a few days from General Villa, General Angeles and other leaders in northern Mexico. It became known that under direc tion of General Villa and his lieuten ants, copies of the peace appeal from the United States and the Latin-Amer- ican diplomats had been printed at Juarez and 1 hi huahua for distribution throughout « very section of Mexico that can be reached. Have you paid the Printer? Communities interested iu the im provement of roads are recommended by the United States department of agriculture to apply for a lecturer on the subject Lecturers will be sent at the government’s expense wherever there Is reason to believe that audl- euces will be large enough to make the expenditure of time and money worth while. Whenever possible it is, of course, desirable for a number of com inanities in the same vicinity to make arrangements for lectures at the »am * time, since in this way the traveling exi»enses for each stop made by the lecturer are materially reduced. The number of lecturers at the dis posal of the department is limited, and it is not always possible therefore to comply with every request. When a lecturer cannot be sent, however, the department will loan a set of suitable lantern slides to any responsible local association or individual who will pay the express charges. The only require ment Is that the slides be made of ac tive and practical use in the communi-, ty and that they be returned In good condition in ninety days. In addition a brief outline of a lecture to accom pany the slides will be forwarded on request. Iu addition to this educational work the department Is always ready to re spond to requests for practical assist ance which may take the form of spe cial advice and inspection, superintend .once of county roads, road surveys, experimental road work, bridge work or the development of a model system of highways for a county. To obtain such assistance local authorities should secure a blank form from the office of public roads on which to make appll cations. Requests from corporate vil lages or cities cannot be met, however. Bridge work is one branch of roa l building in which the department may be of particular service to local author ities. Typical designs have been pre pared, and copies of these can be fur nished on request. A few minor altera tions would probably make such a dr- sign suitable for special conditions, ( r an engineer may be assigned to inspe» t the site and otter suggestions. In some cases designs by bridge companies have been reviewed by the department for the benefit of local officials. Rond materials are also being contin ually tested by the department and the Information thus obtained is available for any community in doubt ns to the kind of road they purpose to build. Similar tests can also be secured on dust layers, such as road oils and tars, and the department will furnish to any one instructions as to selection and shipment of samples. The tests are made free of charge when they are de sired in connection with public im provements.

This county lies round Detroit, the automobile city, and mod ern roads have been built uuder the stimulus of the motor industry, says the Country Gentleman. They have been built so fast and in such level country that a movement Is now afoot to make them more beauti ful. Trees are either lacking or have been trimmed to accommodate wires or baVe been otherwise abused, allow ed to decay and -cut down. Wayne county proposes to have more roa l beauty by planting and taking care of roadside trees and as an object lesson |W)ints to the part trees are to play in Uncle Sam’s national highways. The tree hanging over the road is certainly a thing of beauty. And any road engineer will tell you it is some thing more. He knows that the tree shaded stretches of gravel or water bound macadam highway can be kept In good condition for 25 to 50 per cent less exi>ense than places in the same kind of road exposed to the sun. Shade conserves moisture. The road under a tree never dries out so much as that in the open. So the dust made by traf fic is not so easily blown away, and trees do an Immense work in keeping the road together The low growths of brush that some times spring up close to wheel tracks along neglected country roads of dirt nmy be harmful because they shut otT sun and wind during wet weather and prevent drying out mud to a degree that facilitates travel. Rut big trees with limbs high enough In the air to permit air drainage are always benefi cial. even on such n back road, and worth a great deal of money for the road protection they give. Roadside trees are something more than a background. They are a vital part of the road. When this fact Is added to the plea for trees as road beantlflers It adds to the force of a roadside tree movement.
