On account of timber frauda dis covered in Montana and Idaho. Commiaaioner Hermann of the Gen eral Land Office has euspended all proof made during the present year under' the timber and stone act, pending conclusion of the full inves tigation and inquiry, begun some time ago. Thia action applies to all States where government timber land is purchased, and involves thousand of cases Many of the large companies and speculators who, it is alleged, have had "dum mies" as agents make purchases of these lands from the government, re, in Michigan, Wisconsin, and Minnesota. The President has issued his pro clamation establishing free trade be tween Porto Rico and the United States, and declaring the organiza. tionofa civil government for the island. The proclamation is purely formal, and only in the body of the resolutions adopted by the Porto Rican legislature does it appear that the island was set free commercially in commemoration of the anniver ary of the planting of the American flag on the island The Secretary of the Interior has announced the lommittee to super- rise the drawings for the lands of the Kiowas and Commanches as fol lows.!

The government of Nicaragua has recently put in a claim to sover eignty over several groups of small islands, including the Mangle Is lands, lying off the Atlantic coast of the Isthmus of Panama. The Is lands ate unimportant except for their strategic location off the east erly entrance to the Panama Canal. For 1 his reason the controversy haB received the attention of ihe Isthm ian Canal Commission, which has not, however, had occasion to tHke definite action on the subject. The status of the Porto Rican reg iment has been fixed. Judge Ad vocate General Davis says: "The Porto Rican command is to be con sidered legally as much a part of the regular army as the First Infantry or the Fifty Cayalry or any other regiment of the army, and its of-ricer-i are quite as much officers of the regular establishment as those graduated from the Military Aca demy and holding commissions on the active list. " Lieut. Gen. Miles, commanding the nriny, has issued an order an nouncing that authorized adults and children over twelve years ofT age traveling as first-class passengers on army transport will be charged $1.50 a day for subsistence while nn shipboard. The rate for children over five and under twelve years of age is 75 cents a day. No charge is made for children under nve years of age.

Experts from the Agricultural Department are engaged in prepar ing regulations for the insection of dairy product intended forexporta tion, the Department having been authorized by the agricultural ap propriation bill to apply the law for the inspection and branding of cat iieiosucn products, the purpose is to enable exporters to give foreign buyers the assurance of certification by the government of the United States of the purity, quality, and grade of dairy exports. Secretary Wilson decided to exercise the au thority conferred on him by estab lishing a system of inspection in the custom districts of Boston, New York, Chicago ; and San Francisco. A beginning will be made in a ten tative way, with the urpose in view to bring about a practical am) an honest system by which all per sons may be properly protected It is stated at the department to be "probable that at an early date the owners or shippers of products for export may, upon application, have the same marked and certified as to purity and quality, provided they are above minimum grade, yet to be fixed." Live stock receipts at the five principal markets of Chicago, Kan sas City, Omaha, St. Louis, and St. Joseph during 1901 show remark able gains over last year, but as re gards April and the four months ending with April, the official re ceipts of cattle, hogs, and sheep in the four months just ended showing an increase of 359,417 head, as com pared with the corresponding four months of 1900 The rise in the price of corn is pointed out as being largely responsible for this increased movement of livestock to market, it having become more profitable to sell corn at 25 per cent, above last year's price than to keep the stock on such high priced feed. ' Statistics have been compiled by Mr. Frank H. Hitchcock, chief of the loreign market section of the Department of Agriculture, showing the agricultural exports of the Un ited States for the .years 1896 to 1900. The figures show, that dur ing the year 1900 there were twelve countries to each of which the Un ited States exported over 1 10,000, 000 worth of domestic farm pro duce. A total of 1408,000,000 was purchased by the United Kingdom, the largest on record except that ol 1898, while Germany bought 1134, 000,000 worth, an increase of about 100 per cent, in the past five years. Other large importers were the Netherlands, France, Belgium' Italy, Canada, Japan, Denmark, Cuba, Spain and British Africa. Other countries took less than ten millions worth. Consul Mahin, of Reichenberg, re ports that it is intended this year to essay the cultivation of the cotton plant in Hungary. It i said that it will ripen in the southern part of that Kingdom, efforts to grow cot ton in the lower provinces of Asiatic Russia, in , the same latitude as Hungary, having been successful. It is probable tbat bounties will be paid the cotton planters, in keeping with Hungary's liberal treatment of the founders of factories." More or less success is now attending the culture of cotton in 9pain. southern Italy, Macedonia, ami Malta. : Consul Hughes at Coburg, f attri butes a notable increase in the not ion production of Ruwdan middle Asia, Bokhara and Khiva during 1900 to the dm of fine American cotton seed. , , ' Extraordinary stories are coming in as to the profits of truck farming in the south for, northern markets.

S, Consul John C Corerk Lvom; France, In' a report to the Sute Department, gives the follow ins; inform abort in regard to agn cuitoral organisation in ; France : Associations of farmers, called "syndicate agricoles," have been organized all over France since the passage of the law of March 21, 1884, their aim being to further the economic, industrial, commercial, and agricultural interests of their members and to attach the farmer more closely to the country. They are organized under a general law which authorizes any twenty pei- sons of one trade, or several similar trades, to combine in a society, The dues are fixed at from 10 cents to 91. per month. According 10 the latest reports there are now in France, 2,067 societies of farmers with 512,794 members. These sociaties are combined in ten unions which have representatives in Paris, who watch the course of legislation in the interests of the members. Secretary Wilson of the Depart ment of Agriculture and party have returned from a trip in the moun tains of North Carolina. The trip was to observe the country, with the view of including it in the pro posed national park for the protec tion of forests, the preservation of natural waterways and the preven tion of the erosion of soil and filling up uf the river channels. This movement for the formation of such a national park is especially strong in Virginia, Nor Hi Carolina, 4outh Carolina, Georgia, Kentucky, Ten nessee and West Virginia. , Advo cates of such a park desire to in clude in it 5,000,000 acres, embrac ing the high mountains from Vir ginia to Georgia and the main chain of the Appalachian system. While other countries are spending large sums of money in order to add to their forests, it is only necessary in the United Stales to preserve what is already provided by nature in abundance.

WelL the old man wouldn't have enjoyed it anyhow, for he was used to plain, substantial cooking, snd a supper of little cakes, ice cream, a croquette, a dab of salad and a glass of frappe would floor him. When he had suppers, there would be a big dish of birds, hot bis cuits, pickles and preserves, old style chicken salad and a hot punch after ward. But the old man stood the change in the boy for awhile until one day he came down home and asked him to give his wife a chiffonier, pro nouncing it "chee-fon-ee-ay."

"By earth roads," says Pro cessor Baker, "Is meant roads built of oara and clay," and be continues: ! Drainage Is the most important mat ter to be considered In the construction of eartb roads. No road, whether earth or stone, can long remain good without drainage. Drainage alone will often change a bad road to a good one, and the best road may be destroyed by the absence of proper drainage. Water is the only agent that destroys earth b-oade. Water and dirt make mud, and mud makes bad going. The dirt Is al ways In the road, and the water comes SAMFXS OV AICXBICAX BOAD. at unpropltious times, as rain or snow. The water softens the eartb, the horses' feet and wagon wheels mix It, and It soon becomes Impaiaable mud. Final ly the frost freezes It, and the second state of the road Is worse than the first, for a time at least Further, if the wa ter Is allowed to course down tbe mid die ef tbe road It will wash away tbe earth and leave gullies In the surface that must be laboriously filled up by .the traffic or the band of man. No road, however well made otherwise, can endure If the water collects or re mains on It' Prompt and thorough drainage is a vital essential In all road construction. ' ' ' ' A perfectly drained road will have three systems of drainage, each. of which must receive special attention If the best results are to be obtained. This Is true whether the trackway be Iron, broken stone, gravel or earth, and It IS emphatically true of earth. ' These thiwe avatema are underdrnluaco. side ditches and surface drainage. " Many if not most country mgnwsys mnM ha mnalderablv I m Droved br thorough subdralnage. Most roads need underdral'nage even though water docs not stand In tbe Side ditches, r . The most Important object of under drainage Is to lower, tbe water level In the soli.; The action of the sun snd the hrsMa wm SnaUv rfr .tint surface of the road, but If the foundation is soft and spongy the wheels wear ruts and bone's feet make depressions between tbe ruts. Tbe first shower fills these depressions with water, and tbe road is soon a mass of mud. good road can not ha maintained without a food foun. dition, and an undralned soil is a poor foundation. A dry sudsou can support almoat anv load. A friend of the writ er, an Intelligent man and a close ob server, claims tbat even in a ary time tbe easiest digging oa or around a farm 1 to Just under the surface of a road hav ing no onderdralnage. - Ills theory Is tbat except in tbe road vegetation is nntlnnall nlimnlna tha water tin from the sabsoil and giving It oat Into tbe air, while in the road ue compact sur face prevents evaporation of tbe water In tbe subsoil. Therefore the roaa needs anderdramage more tban tbe field. .' -A second object of underdraltiago Is to dry the ground quickly after a freeze. When tne rrost comes out 01 tha ernnnd In the' SDrlDff. . it thaws qalte as much from the bottom as from tbe fop, If lbs land. Is underd rained, tbe water wbea released by thawing from below will be immediately car rled away.
