Norwich, Menday, Aug. 1, 1910 A CONFLICT OF LAW, The demurrage Jaw of this state is n harmony with the demurrage law of no other state, and now attention is called to the fact that a demurrage Jaw pas=ed by the last congress makes the Connecticut law invalid. Congress in extending the power of the interstate commerce commission gave it authority to make and enforce orders in respect to demurrage and doubtless that authority will be ex- ercised. The Hartford Courant say: The railroad commissioners of the coumtry have asreed upon a two days’ term with modifications, as, for exam- ple, that, if a car is not ready at 7 a. m. on the day the notice is sent, then the demurrage period does not begin until 7 o'clock the next morning, and, if cars are not delivered in an orderly manner but are bunched, the law does not hold. In a word, it puts the roads on their good behavior, but, If they behave, the cars must go out again in two @ays or extra charge be made. “There seems no doubt that New England is coming to this regulation. One reason is the same that reconcilsd the old farmer's wife to death—she couldn’t help it. The rest of the coun- try is on 2 two days’ Dasis, and the railread commissioners of the country ink it is fair, and the interstate com- mission has the power to order such a regulation “ft surely looks like business, and those who ought to know say that it will not prove half so annoving as the shippers have feared it would be, but in time may be endorsed even by those who have been so strenuous for the mt status.” The falrness of the reduction of demurrage delays by half is apparent enough; and as all the other states a two d imit suffi- be good reason of a stat- o defensi- lone in v ought sy little Mr. Comstock take business as a political view of the situation.

GOVERNMENT FORESTRY. Washington that tural department has in past year wdistributed and had ted in the national forest reser- vation ten tons of tree seed. As the spondent remarks, it takes a many tree seeds to make ten tons. Jack pine, the most important tree for planting in the Nebraska sand comes from hills by the forest service, will aver- age something like 000 to the pound. Of western yellow pine, the tree most extensively planted through- out the national forests as a whole, 10,600 seed will make a pound, Alto- gether the ten tons of seed to be used this year represent perhaps 300,000,000 single seeds. If every seed could be depended on to produce a young tree suitable for planting, the result would be a supply of nursery stock sufficient to plant 200,060 acres of land, but no such re- sult can be looked for because many seeds do mot germinate. Most of the seed will be sown, efther broadeast or in seed spots, or planted with a corn planter, directly In the place where the trees are to stand. If from a pound of western yellow pine seed that comtains 10,000 individ- val seeds, 4,000 three plants are available for field planting, the department of agriculture has ob- tained satisfactory results. There are now twenty-four national forest nurseries with an annual pro- ductive capacity of over 000,000 <n-d ngs. But there are many mil- of old burns on the national for ests which are waiting to be restocked and some guicker and cheaper method than the actual planting of nursery- grown trees is urgently needed. There- fore the foresters are making exper ments on a large scale with different methods of direct sowing and plant- %, and most of the seed gathered last year was obtained for this use. This showing leaves no doubt that the agricultural department diligent attention to forestry and pushing the work with a will A man from the state of Washing- ton presented his personal card to the clerk of the Astor house the other day, and it bore upon its back the family tree. It fully anticipated the usual inquiries and saved the regular ver- bval explanations. The MSS. copy of Byron's “The Siege of Corinth,” has just been sold for $3,800 in London. When Byron was writing it he was thought to be crazy—what abont the buyer of the iginal production?

It may be of interest to the veterans hereabouts to learn what is going on in “Old Glory” post, G. A. R., Chicago. George A Vinton, as representative of Mrs. Roland, tells his story in a letter to the Chicago News as follows: “It is true ‘that Capt. William Dri- ver first named the stars and stripes in 1881, as a recent article ‘old Glory’ in the Daily News said, but the origi nal flag is mow in the possession o his daughter, Mrs. Mary F. D. Ro- land of Wells, Nev. I have in keeping the portrait of that stanch o}l unionist, who saved ‘old Glory’ from being destroyed in Nashville, T during the civil war, and I have sh of that same ‘Old Glory' and ail facts and history that Mrs. Rolund most kindly and generously doni Old Glory post, No. 798, G. A. L. Chicago, of which I am a membor, Commander W. W. Fletcher, founder and organizer. “At odr next open meeting Mrs. Roland’s representative, will sent her rich domation to Old < post. We do not indorse the st ment that the ‘Essex institute of Sa- lem, Mass, has the original “0.1 Glory.”’ have the documents s facts to disprove it, and W. mers of Park Ridge, I, near Chi who married Capt. William Ur daughter, also has the facts and m documents and small shreds of flag, which he will also donate t» Oid Glory post at our next open meoting.” It is not probable that there are two genuine “Old Glories” of this unig distinction and it now looks as if Massachusetts might have to take th> hat off to Illinois.

Stucky, of Indianapolis, Ind., says: “To say'that we have recom- mended and sold your Castoria fer years is the best endorsement we can poseibly give any preparation. It Is surely full of merit and worthy of recommendation.” Henry R. Gray, of Montreal, Que., says: “I would say that your Cas- toria for children i8 in large demand and that it gives general satisfaction.’ Not being a secret nostrum many medical men order it when circum- stances indicate the use of such a preparatien.” ‘W. G. Marshall, of Cleveland, Ohlo, says: “We have found your Castoria to be not only one of the best sellers in the medicine market, but a preparation that gives almost universal satisfaction; in fact we cannot recall having had a single complaint from any of our customers who have used it.” Owens & Minor Drug Co., of Richmond, Va., says: “It is with pleasure that we lend our endorsement to Castoria, a preparation of proven merit. During our long experience in the drug business we have had' abundant occasion to note the popularity of the genuine Fletcher's Cas- toria, which we unhesitatingly recommend.” Brannen & Anthony of Atlanta, Ga.,, say: “No doubt if we were called upon to state positively what medicine we had sold for the greatest length of time, the greatest number of bottles sold, and the most satisfactory | preparation to us and also to the customer, we feel that we could safely. . and conscientiously say Fletcher’s Castoria.” GENUINE CASTORIA ALWAYS the Signature of The Kind You Have Always Bought In Use For Over 30 Years. l}whst Spot in Iawn Feature Picture.
