Principles of Forestry Management. During the past twenty years timber lands have constantly in creased in value and owners have derived a profit from their holdings due to this appreciation. This is a speculative, although legitimate profit. Timber lands are capable of yielding an addi tional profit independent of the increase in the value of the stumpage, which is due to the annual growth of the timber. This profit, which comes from growth, is greater on cut-over lands and from young timber than from old growth. Although it accumulates on all land which has any timber growing on it, it can be greatly increased by defi nite methods of management, by protection and systematic cut ting. It is evident then that the value of timber lands as perma- net investments depends primari ly upon the amount of the annu al growth of timber taking place on the land, just as the value of farming land depends upon the amount of the crop which is yearly produced. The farmer can determine without difficulty the amount of his yearly crop and his profit or loss from it. It is difficult for the owner of tim ber land to ascertain the amount of annual growth on his land and its consequent earning value. t is still more difficult for the owner ot timber land to ascer tain methods by which he can increase the yield from his land. It is in fact a complicated prob- em involving the determination of the yield, the grade and the value of the timber which grows each year, as well as the rate of growth of the trees ot difterent sizes. Many owners have con sidered the earning from annual growth too small to be consider ed. They expect to secure profits only from the increase in the value of the stumpage or the speculative profit. By failing to apply business methods to the management of their timbered land they only relalize partial profits. Heretofore we have been dependent upon the old growth of timber. Every year as the amount of the old growth becomes smaller we are more de pendent upon the second growth and must evidently be entirely dependent upon it and upon the annual errowth of timber which comes from it to supply the United States with lumber. The natural rate of growth of timber which takes place can be accelerated by certain systems of management. This is called for estry. It is the means of secur ing the greatest amount of the most valuable wood growth from the land and increasing the earn ing value of the timber lands to a maximum. It is in faet the application of business principles to timber lands to obtain the highest profits from them just 1 . ,t t-ij as banking secures tne nignest returns from the use of money compatible with safety of the investment. Forestry is the meth od of cutting the timber not on ly so as not to destroy the pro ducing power 01 the land, as is frequently the result in ordinary lumberinff. but so as to increase the producing power of the land. The same system ot manage ment is not applicable to all land or to all kinds of timber, it is usually necessary to modify the method to adapt it to the condi tions of each ' locality and each kind of timber as well as on ac count of the use to which the timber is applied. The same system, for example, would not be used even in the same locality for obtaining the highest yield from cordwood as from saw-logs. In general, the forester must determine the following facts in order to develop a system. 1. The rate of growth ot the timber must be ascertained to determine the" yearly growth and to fix the period which must elapse between cuttings, and to ascertain the amount of timber which will be produced during given intervals, as for example the amount of timber which can be cut from a property every ten years, or what period must elapse before a cutting yielding 3,000 feet of lumber to the acre can be made. 2 The diameter above which the most rapid growth takes place. Trees have, at different diameters, different capacities for growth. On the basis of the yield per acre there is a diame ter when the productive capacity of the forest is at a maximum. The forester fixes the diameter limit for cutting solas to always maintain on the land as many trees as possible at or near this size of rapid growth. For example, by cutting to 10 inches in diame ter the growth on a tract of land may be 200 feet a year per acre. By cutting to 16 inches the growth between successive cut tings may be increased to 300 feet a year. 3. The forester outlines plans to be followed to secure the full stocking of the land. Owing to fires, lack of seed trees or other causes a large proportion of the land is often unproductive, hav ing no timber upon it, either old or young. Such unproductive areas are especially common on second growth or cut-over pine land and often amount to one third or one half of the total area, occurring as small openings or thinly stocked areas. Such open ings indicate that a portion of the land and therefore a portion of the investment is idle and un productive. Young timber on the land is necessary for continu ed growth and earning. Its pres ence is necessary if the lands are to pay as the amount of young growth determines the volume and value of the next cutting. Partial restocking is one of the chief reasons why the money re turns from much of the timber lands are unsatisfactory. A great part of the capital is dead and inactive. Better legislation is necessary to protect timber lands from fire, and the assistance of the State is required for such protection of cut-over lands. 4. When several species form the forest the forester develops methods of cutting which will se cure the reproduction of those species which are of greatest value, and which will suppress or reduce the number of kinds of least value. Realizing that the complicated nature of the managment of tim ber landsdetersmany owners from considering them other than as temporary investments, the State Geological and Economic Survey is attempting to remove this dif ficulty by having its forester pre pare for owners working plans showing them the best method of managing their lands. Tim ber which is growing on poor, wet or rough land should be re garded as permanent forest and where the scarcity of labor makes clearing and cultivation indefinite the maximum earning power of the land should be realized by treating the timber as a perma nent forest investment.

Whaley and J. A. Wooten, of Lumberton, N. C., who allege an indebtedness of something like $10,000 on a timber contract, Judge C. C. Lyon, in chambers at Burgaw yesterday, appointed receivers for the Monira Lumber Company, with offices at No. 402 Southern building, this city, and mill plant at White Hall, Bladen county. The assets of the company are estimated at from $10,000 to $12, 000 with liabilities estimated at $13,000. The general depression in the lumber market is attribut ed as the cause of the failure of the concern,which is a copartner ship composed of Messrs. W. L. Currie, F. M. Roberts, I. C.Trip lett and J. M. Currie, all young men who began business as the Monna Lumber Company only about 12 months ago just as the trade conditions were going from bad to worse. Judge Lyon upon motion of Hon. Jno. D.

Sanderlin, a practical mill man of Bladen county, each of whom gives bond in the sum of $2,500 for the faithful discharge of the trust. The defendants in the suit are ordered to appear before Judge Lyon in Wilmington on Saturday, September 26th, to show cause why the receivership should not be made permanent. The indebtedness to the credi tors, Messrs. Whaley and Gough, is understood to be on certain timber privileges sold to the de fendants upon which $5,000 had been paid, a note having been transferred to Mr. Wooten, the third party plaintiff. The assets of the company consist of certain timber at the mill, which it is un derstood to be the purpose of the receivers to cut and market, ap plying the proceeds to an equit able settlement with the credi tors. Mr. Bellamy returned to the city last night from Burgaw, where he appeared before Judge Lyon,presiding at the present term of Pender Superior Court The Commissioners Express Ap preciation for the Support Given Them and Make a Plea for Harmony Within the Ranks. The the Citizens ef Robeson County: We find it in our hearts to ex press our deep and sincere ap preciation and gratitude to those who stood by us so loyally in the primary held last week. The fight was one in which we were deeply interested. Our concern was not for the office which was involved, bnt for the protection of our official conduct and the characters which we have built up after years of residence among our people. Now that the contest has been waged and the verdict registered, it is but proper and flitting that we should make this puonc acKnowieagment ana ex pression of thanks to those who believed in our personal integrity and official probity. We cannot refrain also from pointing with pride to the fact that in those townships from which the mem bers of our board come, we re ceived our highest majorities, thus showing that the people with whom we have lived and who know us best, had the most confidence in us and showed this confidence by their votes. As is usual in all such hated contests, some feeling has been engendered and we fear some of this feeling may still exist. Doubtless some things have been said upon both sides which had better not have been said, and which would not have been said in calmer moments. If such feeling exists, we deplore it but cannot help it. Our fight has been in self-defence. We have attacked no man and have tried to ngnt iairiy ana in the open. Now that the fight is over, we can see no reason for the contin uation of this feeling, if it exists anywhere in the county. We do not cherish any ill feeling to wards those who did not support us for office. We have always recognized that every citizen has the right to support whomsoever he pleases for public office, and did not think the less of any citi zen because he did not see his way clear to support our board. It is true that many things have been said which have been hard to bear. The public, however, is not responsible for this, nor do we blame the public for it. How ever we may have felt towards those making the attack upon us, and however those who did not approve our conduct may have telt towards us, we should all re member that this has been a fight within ourselves within the Democratic party ana that as the fight is over we should ro sume the same cordial and friend ly relations which existed before Bad feeling should not continue to exist in the same household, We should remember that a con tinuance of any feeling can but have one result the succes of the Republican party. We can not feel that cur people will per mit such a result to come to pass on account of any feeling which may have been brought about by the past campaign. We think the public at large ieels as we feel that while we wished most earnestly for the success of our board, still, if the people had chosen a new board, we would have gone to work to roll up as large a mojority for the nominees as possible. We believe in the rule of the majority, and had the result been otherwise than it has, we should most cheerfully have rendered hearty and loyal sup port to the party nominees. We stated this before the primary we re-affirm it now. It isla poor Democrat who will say say will support the ticket provided the man I want is nominated, but will not do so in case he is not All good Democrats will feel that a full and fair expression has been had within the party ranks and now that this has been done time to present a united THE SEABOARD AIR LINE. . r OR PEACE. Generally Admitted That closure Proceedings Are Cj templated But What Action Bondholders Will Take is Not Known. Baltimore Special to Wall Street Journal. On October 1st the receivers of the Seaboard Air Line Rail way will have to pay the coupons on the general mortgage 4 per cent, bonds or interest will be in actual default It is generally understood that the coupons will not be paid. What action the bondholders will take to protect their interests is not known, but it is not believed that they will go to the extent of foreclosing without re-organization. That foreclosure is ultimately contemplated is generally ad mitted, but this step will not be taken till a plan of re-organiza- tion is periected and provision made to provide cash require ments for the new company. New capital will undoubtedly be rais ed by the stockholders through assessment, but it is the idea of all interests to rehabilitate the property without drastic scaling of bonds or unreasonable assess ment against the stocks. j, Thus far tonnage has more than met expectations. The August showing probably will not be as favorable as that of July owing to damage to road bed, bridges, etc., and loss of traffic by floods. The future of the Atlanta & Birmingham is un certain. This division of the system is in detault on the in terest on the 5 per cent, bonds due September 1st The road has never been self supporting and it is felt in some quarters that the Seabord would be better off without it. . Ever since it began operating it has been a drain on the Seaboard, the deficit for the fiscal year end ed June dUth, being approxi mately $500,000. Besides its bonded dept of $5,740,000 the Atlanta & Birmingham owes the Seaboard approximately $5,000, 000 for advances made during construction It has been suggested that the property be operated jointly by the roads entering Birmingham, as is the Richmond-Washington ine. which is owned by the six systems entering Washington, four of which use the tracks of the Richmond-Washington road between Kichmond and the na tional capital. The Seaboard W1IU1UV1IO 111 IWUCBUU Bitterness and Strife Should be Forgotten. In his sermon at the Metho dist church Sunday morning the pastor, Rev. E. M. Hoyle, sub mitted some observations on local conditions that have oc casioned considerable comment. He took for his subject "Those things in our civilization into which the Christian principles are not injected," and his re marks applied largely to political conditions in the town of Lum berton. The following brief out line will serve to give an idea of the nature of his remarks and will furnish food for thought: No man should enter into any thing into which he cannot take Christian principles, but none of these principles is injected into modern politics, especially the politics of Robeson county. No county is so torn by factions as is this. The recent campaign has caused hard feelings and strife which it will take a gene ration for this community to out live, hence it becomes a moral question with which the pulpit must deal. It has come to a pret ty pass, he declared, when a man cannot walk down street with a friend without beinc lined up;" when he cannot give expression to his own private thoughts without being classed as a tool of one faction or another. It is all right to differ, but we should love each other, just the same. The great difficulty is the selfishness andself-interest which enters into the whole matter. Citizenship rests upon the truth that no man liveth to himself and no man dieth to himself: it im plies that you sacrifice some of your wishes for the good of your neighbor. You keep your cow m your lot in order that vour neighbor may have a srarden. Those who have engendered this bitterness should fall upon their knees, beg each other's forgive ness, repent of their sins and hereafter be friends. Such conditions are hurting the prosperity ot our community. Men do not like to live in the midst of strife, and under ex isting conditions few people will care to moveintothis community It endangers business interests His plea was for peace.

The night riders of Alabama and Arkansas have gone a bow shot beyond those of Mississippi who have merely notified gmners to suspend business. In the two States first named, cotton plant ers are being held up and threat ened with dire consequences un less they reduce acreage and hold their crop for the minimum price fixed by the Fort Worth convention. Farmers as a class do not take very kindly to in- timadation. We wonder if those of Alabama and Arkansas will submit to it or defy the night riders and be subjected to the drastic discipline that was visited upon the tobacco growers of Kentucky. It might be more pertinent to enquire if the State authorities will take hold of the situation, uphold the law and protect the rights of those farmers who think themselves caDable of attending to their own business. There are intimations that the Gover nor of Alabama will move in the matter. If he does it is to be hoped that his efforts will be attended with better success than attended those of the Governor of Kentucky, who issued procla mations and made threats but whose troops killed none of the outlaws nor put any of them in jail.
