I Wood CropIi
. One-third of the latest land in the
‘Utlted States is on farms. 'l'hcse
farm woodlands yield only a small
proportion of the wood they should
produce. an enormous waste of pos-
sibilities. according to the report of
-. the forestry committee of the Chain-
1‘: ber of Commerce of the United
": ‘Btstes. Research and experiment
' are necessary to teach the farmer
how to make the most of his wood-
land. the report. adds.

.
forest policy. the American Tree As.
“elation of Washington. 1). C.. says
the farm woodlot is an important as-
Ilt and that the fainter should be
g’reatly interested in the Chamber's
referendum.
.As to what to plant. white pine
Yields very good returns in New
England. and the same may be said
of the yellow pine in various parts
of the South.
'.' Firewood is one of the important
crow. In 1920. an average of 10.6
% cords of wood. or a total of 68.2“.-
‘ " lino cords. were burned on the farms
“1.. fot the country. Piled continuously.
this would reach fouiitimes around
v the world. The total production or
.3 “ cord wood during the year. which
”V includes wood burned on farms and
that sold by farmers to city dwell-
era. is estimated at not less than :10.-
000.000 cords. The average iatlu
value in 1920 was 35.07 a cord.
Farmers in the South are the
heaviest fuel-wood users. North
Carolina and Tennessee lead with an
average of 17 cords used on each
farm during the year. The farms
of Vermont. Virginia six-d Arkansas
averaged 15 cords; Kentucky. 14
cords; Michigan. Georgia and Ala-
bama. 13 cords; Maine. New iluuip-
shire, Connecticut. Wisconsin. Scutli
Carolina. and Missouri. 1:: cords.
With the coal situation what it is.
it would seem the farmer with a
good wood crop coming along exery
year will be a. very wise man.

LITTLE BOY BLUE
By Eugene Field.
The little toy dog is covered with
dust.
Ilut sturdy and staunch he stands:
And the little toy soldier is red with
rush
And his musket moulds in his
hands.‘
Time was when the littl ctoy dog
\\‘-’18 "(WV
And the soldier was passing fair.
;And that was the time when our
Litle Boy Blue
Kissed them and put them there.
“Now don't you go till I come," he
said. .
“And don't you make any noise!"
So toddllng off to his trundle-bed
He dreamt of the pretty‘ toys.
And as he was dreaming. an angel
song
Awakened our Little Boy Blue.—
Oh. the years are many. the years
are long.
But the little toy friends art true.
lAy. faithful to Little Boy Blue. they
stand.
Each ill the same old place.
Awaiting the touch of a little hand.
The smile of a, little fade.
And they wonder. as waiting these
long years through.
In the dust of that. little, chair.
What has become of our Little Boy
lilue
SinCe he kissed them and put them
there.

Police Commissioner Croul was
conservatively within the facts too
when he said. "More serious than
even these Justified complain‘s on
the part of the dignified portion of
our people is the actual mellsce to
life that lies in this unnecessary
honking of horns. Men. "onion and
children are sick in homes flanking
the streets where traffic is general.
These sick persons must not on: dis-
turbed. Harsh and unexpecisd and
continuous noises are dangerous and
even fatal to them. but those horn
honkers never show any considere-
tlon for others.’ '
Naturally the horn honkcr rim-s
not think'of anything so 1- onsc-
quentlal as a sick person or a. sleep-
lng baby. He is not that sort of a
person. if he were. he woufil not be
a horn hooker. He has 'a form or
speed mania and there is'no other
disease more fatal to consideration
for others.
Experience has shown that a p‘ ‘-
perly painful session with. the 'ourt
is about the best remedy for that
mania existing. and we hope the po-
lice department will aucoeed in ap-
plying it effectively to all the busy
little footers that fall to fair in hint.
