El Big- Redwood Falls,- A giant has fallen. The Lafayette, | | the tallest tree in the Calaveras grove, 800 feét high, with a diameter of 30 i feet at its base, has yielded to the | wind, and lles on the ground. Thlsi tree was one of the sequoias, thos towerlng redwoods of’ California. Ed- win Markham has described them | thus: “They are the Titans of our forests—yes, the Titans of the forests of the world. The sequoias are the oldest’ living- things on the globé, the survivors of a widespread family or | race of trees which flourished back | In the Mlocene era. before the age { of ice. But they all pervished in the | glacial age, except a few in the shel- tered canyon in the southern belt of California. The Culaveras grove In the north is the one whose story | has run most widely on the lips of the world.” John Mulr estimated the age of a certain sequoia in the King’s River forest at 4,000 years. This tree had beeén burned down. These monarchs of the woods should be care- | fully guarded, from commercial raids ;us well as otherwise. | Remember There’s a Limit, | “Evefy man Is Intitled to his own | opinion,” said Uncle Eben. “But dar | ain’ any use o' your puttin’ yoh own | | iden of what de time o’ day ought to | | be agin dat of de gemman dat’s run- | nfn’ de railroad train.” | " e TR, e ] Wing, who hayve been the guests of |\ | rear door and powerful railwa | befilrg roomy and comfortably |of “a buzzer system.

RELIEF TO SUBURBANITES Relief. seems in sight for the sub- urbanite doomed to ,a mile hike in ordér to rTeach the street car that s to take hin{ to the office, for now, comes the trollibus which promises speedy extension cf the nation’s street car facifities. } Emerging irom the experimental stage this new mode of travel is in general use 'in at least one large city In fact, Richmond, Va, has had a number of ‘trollibusses in operation for some tyme and, according to the Pirestone Ship-by-Truck Bureau, the new vehicles are a much less expen- ive 1pethed of transportation than a street car system. In appearance the new busses are somewhat ‘similey to ‘the one-man street cars used,in the smaller citi They are operated on the pre-pay- ment plan, with mechanical door con- trol. Other working features ure the \dead man’s handle, emergency mot- or. IKxcept that the car gains its power from overhead trolly lines, it is operated in all respects like a big motor bus. It may be guided in and out of the traffic and brought to a stop at the curb. The troltbusses now in use will seait thirty and take fifteen standees, says the Firestone bulletin, the seats up- rried holstered. No advertising i withiln or withtout cars and it has the overhead ventilating system. Pas- sengers designate their stop by means The exit steps are within the docrs. Wheels are of the cushion type and although it has not as yet been defi- nitely decided whether cushion tires will be the permanent oju’pment, present indications point to the fact that they will be. According to Fire- stone motor bus tire experts the cush- fon tire is percularly adapted to the new cars on account of their combin- ed advantage of cushioning, traction, protection against skid or spin and ability to carry heavy lcads without trouble. ! VALUE OF FARM IMPLEMENTS LAST YEAR $537,000,000 Gas tractors to the number of 203,- 000 with a total value of $193,000, more than 1,000,000 plows, with a value of over $40,000,000; 5,000 farm wagons, with a value of nearly $25,000,000, and 412 haying ma- chines, with a value of nearly $25,- 00,000, were manufactured in the United States during the year ¢ 1920, according to detailed reports from 583 manufacturers summarized by bureau of public roads, United States department of agriculture. The total value of implements manufac- tured was $537,000,000, and gas trac- tors constituted more than one-third of the total. The exact number and value of - {the early part of 1921. these and other classes of equipment manufactured—of those sold in the United States and of those sold for export during the year—are given in the accompanying table. These figures are a summary of d. tailed reports which 583 manufac- turers of tractors, farm implements, vehicles and other farm-operating equipment recently gave to the divi- sion of agricultural engineering. Ev- ery manufacturer of farm equipment in the country was asked for a report of his activities, and, while a few did not respond, it is certain that at least 99 per cent of the entire industry is represented in the figures above, and | for most classes of equipment, the in- formation is practically complete. The reports of a considerable number of firms covered fiscal years ending in the latter part of 1920 or The reports of such firms do not represent exact- ly their activities for the calendar year of 1920, but in every case the report covered an entire r, and it is believed' that for all practical pur- poses the totals may he considered representative of the industry for 1 calendar year.
