now takes a minimum of 16,000 pounds 

 and a 40-foot car a minimum of 20,000 

 pounds all over tlie United States. 



Attention is called to the fact that to 

 secure the lowest rates values claimed 

 naust not exceed 5 cents per pound in 

 Western territory and 3 cents per pound 

 in the Southern territory. 



The trade is urged to ' ' favor such leg- 

 islative supervision of railroads as will 

 eliminate all favors in the way of ship- 

 pers' passes, rebates, etc. The question 

 of rates is being adjusted with devel- 

 opment of business. Fair treatment of 

 the railroads by you will be reciprocated 

 by them." 



Copies of the circular with full clas- 

 sification tables will be sent to any appli- 

 cant by either Mr. Eeed, Mr. Albertson, 

 or the Review. 



STORING TREE SEEDS. 



Numerous packages of forest tree 

 seeds are being received by the Forest 

 Service in Washington, from the several 

 nursery stations throughout the west 

 where seedlings are being grown for 

 planting on forest reserves. These seeds 

 will be used in carrying on extensive 

 storage tests to determine the best 

 methods of preserving seeds of the sev- 

 eral species most commonly used. The 

 more important species are western yel- 

 low pine, jack pine, Coulter pine, knob- 

 cone pine, red fir, white fir and incense 

 cedar. 



The work in Washington is in coopera- 

 tion with the seed testing laboratory, 

 and the seeds will be stored dry, in cool 

 basements, in cold storage, and in her- 

 metically sealed jars. Corresponding 

 tests will be carried on at the nurseries 

 on the western forest reserves, and the 

 comparative results are expected to show 

 not only which method of storage is best, 

 but in which locality seeds retain their 

 vitality longest. In view of the rapid 

 increase in forest planting operations, 

 particularly in connection with planting 

 on denuded watersheds, this work be- 

 comes of high importance. 



Taking into consideration the general 

 information the Eeview gives and the 

 usual reliability of the advertisements 

 it prints, I consider it would be poor 

 business policy to do without it when it 

 can be had for the small sum of $1 a 

 year. — W. G. Negle, Beaumont, Tex.
