The United States department of agriculture is. using this year on the national forests over ten tons of tree seed. The rest will be utilized later in the season, as favorable conditions are presented. It takes a great many tree seeds to make ten tons. Jack pine, the most important tree for planting in the Nebraska sand hills by the forest service, wil! average something like 125,000 to the pound. Of western yellow pine, the tree most extensive ly planted throughout the national forests as a whole, 10,000 seed will make a pound. Altogether the ten tons of seed to be used this year represent perhaps 30'0 million single seeds. If every seed could be depended i on to produce a young tree suitable for planting, the result would be a supply of nursery stock suficlent to plant three hundred thousand acres of land, but no such result can be looked for, because many seeds do not germinate. Most of the seed will be sown either broadcast or in seed spots, or planted with a corn planter directly in the place where the trees are to stand. Even when nursery stock In raised a liberal allowance must be made for loss. In the first place, t. con siderable percentage of the seeds will be found to be Infertile. Of those which germinate, many will die before they leave the nursery beds, and many more will be lost in transplanting. If from a pound of western yellow pine seed that con tains 10,000 Individual seeds 4,000 three-year-old transplants are avail able for field planting, the depart ment of agriculture has obtained satisfactory results. There are now twenty-four nation al forests nurseries, with an annual productive capacity of over eight mil lion seedlings. But there are many millions of old burns on the national forests which are awaiting to be re stocked,' and some quicker and cheaper method than the actual planting of nursery grown trees Is urgently needed. Therefore, the for esters are making experiments on a large scale with different methods of direct sowing and planting, and most of the seed gathered last year was obtained for this use. Broadcasting has already been found to give results in some regions. It was first tried in the Black Hills of South Dakota, with an encourag ing outcome. To broadcast an acre of land with yellow pine seed about 8 pounds of seed is used. One of the most formidable draw backs to this method is the extent to which the seed may be consumed by birds and rodents. If the season happens to be one in which food for these animals Is scarce, the loss Is heavy. The problem of control of animal posts, such as fli'ld mice, i ground squirrels and gophers, which eat the tre seeds, and also the fur- ther problem of preventing the dep redations of lalililts, which arc al together too fond of the Utile trees themselves, whether nursery trnns . plants or field-grown seedlings, Is re ' reiving the attention of the biological ! survey experts of the department .of Hgrlcnll 'ire In some localities the department has bad to purchase seed, but most of that used Is gathered by forest service men themselves. The rot of gathering lias varied for the differ ent regions from thirty-five rents to ;oi)e dollar a pound. Ah a rule the seed is collected In the fall months, 'when most conifers ripen their seed, Parties of three or four men ordin arily work together. Where lum bering Is In progress the collectors follow I he sawyers and take the cones directly from the felled trees. In standing timber the task Is much more arduous. The men must often climb tall pines and pull the cones from the branches as best they can. Where these Hie on the extremities and beyond the reach of the band, pruning shears are used. The cones are dropped 1o the ground and then gal tiered Into buckets and transfer red to sacks, In which they are car ried to h central point for further in i'Mih lit. Til" extraction of the ured Is tedi ous rather than difficult.

Arthur Wallace Dunn, a promin ent newspaper man at the National capital, says that Cuba Is a seething volcano. 'iue eruption probably will occur In December, although there may be sporadic outbreaks from time to time, such as have re cently occurred In the vicinity of Santiago. The United States author ities are aware of the situation and it Is believed that steps are being taken to meet a revolutionary move ment that seems bound to material-! ize at an early day. Major General Leonard Wood, an officer who knows more about Cuba than any other man In the service, has been made chief of staff of the army, and even In these hot sum mer months when most officials are on leave, Is devoting himself to problems and maneuvers that may well mean another Cuban occupa tion. American representatives In Cuba are generally agreed that an outbreak can not be averted, and have so informed the goyernment American owners of property In Cuba have Informed government of ficials they expect that their Inter ests will be protected, and have been assured the United States will not allow the lives or property of our citizens to be Injured or des troyed. And what Is It all about? In the first place, the Impending revolution may be attributed -to the restless ness, the revolutionary tendencies and disquietude of the Spanish blood. Then there are dissatisfaction and suspicion on the part of the "outs," who believe that the pres ent government Is robbing the peo ple and that the officials are en riching themselves. The "outs" In Cuba declare that looting Is going on and they want their share. Hence there Is organization of ''bands." The "general" and his negro follow ers are ready for a revolution In the name of liberty. The grand farce Is In course of preparation, The dream of a century Is about to be accomplished. Cuba Is to come to the inlted States. It will bo two years before there Is a presidential election In Cuha, but the revolutionists will not wait until then to displace President Gomes and the gang that surrounds him. In December there will be elections signals for riots In Span ish American countries when gov ernors of provinces, councils and municipal officers will be elected. The government will endeavor to sustain Itself by securing the choice of Its own officials, and will Inter fere everywhere to attain this end. Then the revolution will break forth. Murder will be committed. Planta tions will be fired. Rands of revol utionists will roam nbout the coun try: "generals" will Issue proclama tions; In short, the top of the vol cano will be blown off. There will be loud ctles for Intervention by the United States. In order to pro tect life and property, the United Slates will Intervene. And that In tervention will be the death knell of the Cuban republic! Does tills outlook deter the men who fire responsible, either those who are running the government or those who are peeking to destroy II?

The horse can only furnish labor and can only return a profit to his owner when conditions are right for returning satisfactory grain crops. It is a well known fact that the dairy cow Is the Balvatlon of the farmer In times of poor crops, as she Is able to convert the rough crops which are never a total failure Into dairy products, which always have a cash value, In nddltlon to this she furnishes skim milk and buttermilk for the calves, pigs and poultry and fertility for the poll, without which a farm becomes less valuable each year and the whole country less prosperous. The elimination of the dairy cow would necessitate an almost revolu tionary readjustment of man's tastes and requirements. It would mean un told suffering and hardship. Of course she will not be dispensed with but her value can perhaps best be appreciated by contemplating such a loss. She will continue to be man's best friend as long as the human family exists and will keep on supplying him with his greatest needs Just as slie Iihs done through all the ages.
