Althoughgnot ravenous the t| packs follow dog trains for long dis- “| tances without offering serious men- ace to the teams. The huge numbers of wolves trav- eling in the packs has surprised ex- ricnced trappers and ‘hunters, who y they never have seen anything to equal it. A few small packs. also have been een. At Herb Lake thirty-five wolves were scen on the trail or a herd of moose and trappers gave chase, kill- ing seven of them.

Hall of Fame For Trees Inaugurated Washington, Dec. 3—A “Hall of Fame for trees” has been inaugurate] by the American Forestry association for the recognition. of famous trees and the location of the largest shaae tree in the United States. An elm at Huntington, Indiana, long has been regarded as the largesu shade tree in the country. This claim of course excludes) the Red woods of California, ‘Now comes Dumont Kennedy of Crawrordville, Indiana, with a picture of a tree on his property and the suggestion that it is larger than the tree at Hunting- ton. This tree has a spread of 99 feet while the Huntington Elm has a | spread of only: 75 feet. A tree at Framingham, Mass, also. makes claim to being the. largest. 19 Charles Lathropack, president of the American. Forestry ‘association, says: “We want a complete list of fam- ous trees now. There is the Liberty tree on the campos. of St. John’s College at. Annapolis: under which a treaty wih the Indians was signed in 1652. The experts tell us this tree is close to 800 years old... We all know of the William’ .Penn — Treaty Tree beneath which Washington took command of the continental. army, At’ Oberlin, 0., is the elm on the cor- ner of the campus under which was the first log house in which Oberlin College was founded,. The American Forestry association, has‘listed many famous trees but it wants the list complete.

Since the Quebee goverument — se- cured jurisdiction over the extended territory to-the north there have been numerous clashes between the two go ernments in the matter of grants vf timber limits, and mineral rights. In spite of the fact that the country is generally recognized to be desolate in character, it is stated that it is rich’ in timber, minerals, fish and fur. Canada and Newfoundland have de- cided to submit the dispute to the ju- cial committee of the privy council in England. They have also decided upon the form of refprence which is as fol lows: * Phat is the location und definition of the boundary as between, Canad and Newfoundland’ in the Labrador orders-In- peninsula, under statutes, council and proclamation?” Newfoundland formerly opposed hay- ing proclamations submitted.

Official statistics of Domluion. finances for October, show that the na- tional debt increased $35,545,000 dur- ing that month but that this was a sharp reduction over the September in- crease Which was $65,000,000. Canada’s net debt is officially total- led as $1,74.331,000. This is slightly more than $500,000,000 higher than the debt was a year ago. War expendi- tures since April 1, of this year, total- led $206,000,000, according to federat statistics, According to Dominion of- ficials, it was more expensive for the Dominion to mobilize its forces than «t was to keep them in the field. One encouraging feature of the lat- est report is an increase in revenue. The total for the seven months since the beginning of the fiscal year, April 1, is $186,400,000. The total for the corresponding period of 1918 was $164,400,000. ! Great increases in ordinary expend'- tures were reported this year,’ be- cause of renewal of building ac- tivities.
