These consist for the most part of conifers !—pine, cedar, hemlock, spruce and ‘other species—of which many attain i enormous size and tower aloft for hundreds of feet. Not long ago a giant yellow fir was 1 found in Oregon by loggers working at Bllng slough. Tills venerable king of the forest was felled and the butt section placed on an iron platform • car. The tree was perfectly sound ‘ throughout. The log was 28 feet long, 110 inches in diameter at tine butt and 9S inches jin diameter at the upper end. It ! weighed more than 23 tons, and con _ talned 12,000 feet of lumber, board measure. The tree from which it was '■ cut was 431 years old, and rose to r. ' height of 200 feet without a limb. Seven sections of this tree which were , logged yielded together 40,000 feet of . lumber. The log was cut into first* ■' class flooring and sold at a good price.

Under th# auspices oi 4 commission of the League of Nations there has be#n going on In the Aegean a salvaging operation for which it is doubtful if there is a parallel in ali history. The Treaty of Lausanne provided for the removal of friction between Turks g Greeks by an exchange of population. A million and a quarter sk inhabitants of Asia Minor were to be transported to Europe, ee hundred and fifty thousand Moslems in Greece were to be ted to Turkish territory. It meant tearing from their homes a Greek population which had been planted on the soil for 2,000 years before the Turks made their appearance in history. Eco homieally it meant the removal from Asia Minor of the greater |>art of its industrial and trading population. But the League is no economist. Faced with a bitter human problem, it went to Work, ably seconded by the sacrifice and efforts of the Greek people. Greece, with a population of four and a half millions, has had to find homes and livelihood for a mjllion and a quarter refugees. By the middle of last winter, half the problem had been solved. Ma cedonia received 320,000 refugees on her land. The cities received 03,000. A quarter of a million succeeded in placing themselves with out publio aid. More than half a million must still be provided for ata cost, estimated by Mr. Henry Morgenthau, of about $30,000, OOOj The League is eudeAvoring to find the money. Mrs. MoCormick does not think there is much exaggeration in the popu lar estimate that one-quarter of the refugees have succumbed. Out of one band of 3,000 refugees in Asia Minor who started for the coast under Amerioan guidance, only 5,000 reached thqir destina tion. The League had a problem left on its hands by the (Ul states manship and it has been solving it. Weak, perhaps, in the prin ciples of eoonomios, the League is strong in recognizing such things as racial, religious and political animosities, and it proceeds to do its best. The problem in the Aegean recalls what happened in 8il«na three years ago. The eoonomiats all knew that the partition of Silesia was an impossibility. But the League put through the plebiscite, the province was divided between Germany and Poland, and there has been a total l*ok of news from Silesia, which argues that the impossible scheme is Working. By the drawing of frontiers by the Salvaging of refugee popula tions, and, it may yet be, by its supervision of the rights of min ority populations, the League, so ill-trained in fundamental prin ciples, managts to do its bit for the future peace of the world WOMAN GAINING IN TEXAS RACE Mrs. Ferguson Likely to Go Into Finals in Guberna torial Contest Universal Servloe. Fbrt Worth, Tex., July 22.—Out of five-six the of last Saturday's ballots compiled. If Mrs. Miriam A.

The tusks of the elephant supply the Ivory which Is so highly esteemed the world over for ornamental purposes. Among the Indian or Asiatic elephants only the male has the tusks, but they are found on both the male and female of the African species.
