Forest Notes. 
It has been discovered that the waste from 
dogwood shuttle blocks can profitably be made 
into handles for steel knives and forks. 
Contrary to popular belief, forest fires sel¬ 
dom travel more than two or three miles an 
hour. Even in extreme cases it is question¬ 
able whether they burn at a rate of more than 
six to ten miles an hour. 
Uncle Sam’s forest rangers require that 
permanent camp sites within the forests shall 
be kept in sanitary condition. The ubiquitous 
tin can must be buried and waste paper burned 
when a camp is left. 
More than 3,000 small logging operators 
now buy national forest timber; at least 25,000 
persons—settlers, miners, stockmen and others 
—obtain timber from Uncle Sam’s big wood- 
lot for their own use free of charge. 
The forests of Corsica, the little island 
upon which Napoleon was born, are managed 
by the French Government. They produce 
lumber, firewood and turpentine, and all parts 
of the tree are far more closely utilized than 
in America. 
Twenty-two States, including Hawaii, now 
employ State foresters. 
A 115-foot lookout tower on the Sitgraves 
National Forest, in Arizona, just constructed 
by forest officers, was built entirely of logs and 
without the use of hoisting machinery other 
than ropes and tackle blocks. 
Forest officers on the Payette National 
Forest are using a compressed air drill in road 
work on the forest. There is considerable 
rock work to do, and the drill saves time and 
money in cutting grades on mountain roads. 
In an experimental test track near Janes¬ 
ville, Wis., an inspection just made showed 
that hemlock and tamarack ties put in the 
track without preservative treatment were de¬ 
cayed afer five and a half years’ service. Those 
which had been treated were practically as 
good as when first laid. 
Night burning of underbrush to remove 
forest litter had been practiced in India, with 
the idea that it improves conditions for teak 
growing. Now after long investigations forest 
officials there say that the fires are harmful, 
that full fire protection must be extended 
everywhere, and that to be really effective 
this protection must be continuous. 
A Comprehensive Shot. 
Old Sambo’s young hopeful Rastus was 
all swelled up about his school work in arith¬ 
metic. 
His dad said: “Rastus, if seben crows 
set on de fence, an’ I shoot one, how many 
left?” 
Rastus painfully manipulated his fingers, 
then replied confidently: “Six.” 
“Wrong,” said Sambo. “When I shoot 
one, dey all left.”—DuPont Magazine. 
Elk have been found in the Uinta Nation¬ 
al Forest, Utah, for the first time in many 
years. Since they are not from shipments 
from the Jackson Hole country to neighbor¬ 
ing forests, the State and Federal officials are 
gratified at this apparent increase in big game 
as the result of protection.
