Hush dear! \"* '\nRate of Growth Studied In Canada and\nUnited States\nThe aspen poplar, frequently spoken of as tbe white poplar, is one of\nj the most common trees all over Can-\nI ada (at any rate ln that portion of\nI the Dominion east of the Rocky\nMountains). In many parts ot the\nDominion it forms quite extensive forests (especially ln districts that have\nbeen burned over). ThiB fact gives\nit a place of some Importance In the\nforestry of the Dominion, although It\nIs one ot the interior woods.\nSome years ago (in 1906) the Forestry Blanch of the Department of\nt'ie Interior made a careful survey of\nthe Turtle Mountain forest reserve ln\nSouthern Manitoba, on which, this\npoplar Is by all odds the most plentiful tree. As a result of luvestlgatlon\non the basis of data collected during.\nthis survey, lt was estimated that. If\nthe poplar were allowed to grow to\nthe age of forty years, there would be\nan average growth, for the whole of\nthat time, of one cord per year on a\nfully stocked acre. At the end ot\nthat time there would be standing on\neach acre about 850 trees, ot an average height of 45 feet and an average diameter, at i% teet above the\nground, of 6 inches; these wonld yield\nsome 40 cords of wood.\n, Recently the United States Forest\nService published their Bulletin No.\n93, entitled \"The Aspens,\" and it ls\ninteresting to note that their results\ncome close to the flgnrea made out by\nthe Canadian survey. Volume tables\ngiven at the conclusion ot this bulletin show that trees of the height, and\ndiameter given above will each yield\nbetween one twentieth aud one twenty fifth of a cord of wood apiece. Thus\nthe 850 acres would give somewhere\nbetween thirty-four and forty-two\ncords of wood. The average of the\ntwo amounts gives thirty-eight cords,\na figure nearly the same as that obtained by the Canadians.\nAs there are 55,t\u00C2\u00BB00 acres In the\nTurtle Mountain reserve that are capable of growing timber, lt is a reasonable inference that the reserve\nmay be counted on to produce 55.000\ncords, or thereabouts, of wood per\nyear. At the low rate of $1 per cord\non the stump, this would mean an annual revenue to the state of $55,000.\nOr, to take another point of view it\nwould give to each inhabitant of the\nelectorial district of Sourls almost\ntwo cords of wood per year.\nC^*'\n_HK _____\u00E2\u0096\u00A0__>\n[vMOONEY'S^TJlSCUITS\nARE THINNEI\nThat makes them noater, crispcr, daintier, more appetizing;\nThc one biscuit good enough to take thc place of your own baking,'\nFresh as the biscuits from your own oven.\nThink what that means!

EWING\nA few yeara before the war between\nIhe stntes 1 was obliged to go from mj\nnorthern home to South Carolina. I\nwas sitting ons evening In s cafe wltb\na friend when a discussion aross st s\ntable near me between sn elderly mun\n\u00E2\u0096\u00A0ud one wbo was, st least by comparison, youug. Ths latter bad been sitting alone at tbe tabls whsn ths formei\nentered tbs cafe, stood at tb* entranci\nlooking about him, then walked with a\nlimp to wber* tb* otber was sitting\nand, taking a chair, called tor a Julep.\n' Neither spoke to tbe other, and It wai\n\u00E2\u0080\u00A2vldent they war* strangers.\nBut presently the older man address-\ned a remark to the younger, which led\nto conversation. At that time th* pro\nand sntl slavery parties wer* contend'\nIng, the one to make Kansas a tree, tht\n\u00E2\u0080\u00A2ther a slave slate. Xhe man wbo bad\nentej-ed Inst began to Inveigh against\nth* \"border ruffians,\" aa they wen\ncalled In the north, at tbe same tlmt\ncharging tbem wltb committing Innumerable crimes. I was rather sur<\nprised nt this, since be spoke wltb s\ndistinct southern accent, though at thai\ntime the southern people wer* not united on the slavery question, Indeed wen\nnot united eveu after tbe war com\nmenced.\nTbe younger man took Issu* wltb his\nneighbor, averring that the south bad\nthe right to carry tbelr Institutions Into\nthe new territories as well aa tbe north.\n.Whereupon the other became violent\nand abusive. The advocate of those\nwbo were trying to mak* Kansas a\n\u00E2\u0096\u00A0Iar* state endeavored to withdraw\nfrom the discussion, but his opponent\nwould not permit blm- Finally tbe latter, waxing wrothy, declared that ths\nproslavery movement tn Kansas was\nconceived Jn iniquity and any man wbo\nadvocated lt was a scoundrel.\nThe other's cheek burned, but he eon-\ntrolled blmtelt, whereupon bis opponent, wbo waa evidently disposed to\ndrive blm to the wall, said tbat a man\nwho bad sucb opinions nnd declined to\ndefend them was a coward. Tbls forced tbe younger man to resent the Insult offered him, and, drawing a card\nfrom bis pocket, be banded It to bla\nloaulter.\n\"I bnven't a cabd wltb me, suh,\" said\nthe challenged man, \"but wltb yo' ps'-\nmission I will writ* my name on tbe\nback ot yo'a. 1 will send a friend to\nyo' Immediately to arrange a meeling\nat 4 o'clock tomorrow morning. I most\nleave the city at 0 on impotent business.\"\n\"And I. sir,\" replied Ih* other, \"hav*\nan Important engagement In the early\nmorning wblcb will prevent my fighting you llll later.\"\n\"If yo' mean, suh, lo crawl out o' th*\naffair 1 should be glad to know It now.\"\nThe goaded man, seeing me and my\nfriend sitting at another table witnessing tbls Imputation oo bis courage, said\ncoolly to his tormentor:\n\"Very well; since yon wish to be\nkilled before breakfast I will put off\nmy other engagement and kill you. I\nwill be at bom* for th* SM of th*\n\u00E2\u0080\u00A2venlng, when I shsll await tb* coming of your friend.\"\nHe arose from his chair snd went\nout, leaving bis opponent In possession\nef the field.\nII* bad uo sooner disappeared than\ntb* man wbo had provoked blm beckoned to my friend Mortimer, wbo left\nm* and went wltb blm to an unoccupied corner ot tbe room, and the two\nbeld a conference In a low tone. Wben\ntt was over Mortimer returned lo me\nand gar* m* a few word* of explanation.

Colonel lilngold hnd not\ngiven his tru* name, and bis opponent\ndid not know wbo h* was.

Tbe probability Is, bowsvsr, lhal\nIt will lead to another tight.\"\nThis fraction of a story left me more\npuasled tban before. Indeed, my curiosity waa excited to such a pitch\nthnt I did not sleep s wink during tbs\nbrief Interval before tbe meeting. I\nwas cnlled at II In the morning by\nMortimer and, with my case of surgical Instruments, entered a carriage\nIn waiting and drove to tbe ground.\nTbe colonel wns tbere, standing\nalon* In the gray of th* morning.
