Tie laws wliieli govern I lie distribu lion of frees produce the tvv > great types, file pure and the mixed forest. Tiie former is the result of local eon ditions which trees of one kind only ran survive. In the North woods the Imlsum oc cupies the swamps, usually to the ex clusion <4 all < nnpetitors, since no oilier of the native trees can thrive in wet places. In tin* l»!a«U Hills and other parts of the middle west the small demands of the bull pine upon moisture enable it t*» form pure woods on a soil too dry to support oilier na five trees. The jack pine of tin* New Jersey barrens and tile long leaf pine of the southern states grow in pure or nearly pure stands since they alone can withstand tin* peculiar conditions of these regions. Whore climate and soil are favorable to various trees we timl the mixed for est, Hu* number of species In mixture depending upon the suitability of the locality to forest growth. Upon tin* hardwood flats of the Adi rondacks the bill'd maple, the yellow lurch and the hccch an* the only de ciduous trees aide to withstand the se vert* climate. hi the southern Appa lachian forests, where the trees of the north and south meet under conditions favorable to both, we liud more Ilian loo different kinds. Tla* distribution of trees, therefore. Is the joint result of local conditions and of the individual and varying re quirements of the different species up on moisture, soil and climate. Thu laws, however, which govern forest dis tributlou are not identical with those which regulate tin* behavior of trees in mixture. They do not explain why each species, it undisturbed, maintains the same proportion in the mixed for est. Why does not the hard maple drive out its competitors in the Adlrou ducks, the oak gain the upper hand in the forests of the southern Appala chiuiis, tin* red tir ex terminal to the western hemlock on the Uaclflc slope? Wherever a mixed forest occurs there Is an unrelenting struggle going on. Let us see how the combatants are armed and why tin* representation of each species remains unchanged. The more important of the character istics which affect the capacity of r tree to hold its own in mixture will.' trees of other kinds are its demand* Upon light, its rate of growth and it* power of reproduction. No two species require an equal amount of light, grow at the same rale or are identical in their capacity to reproduce themselves. The endowment ol each, with habits differing from those of Its neighbors, but with strength and weakness so balanced that all which occur in mix tun* cider (lie struggle for existence Upon an equal footing, is one of flu* marvelous feats of nature. The red spruce of the North woods, through its ability to endure dense shade, lias been given the power to bold Its own against faster growing competitors, some ol which exceed it greatly in their capacity to reproduce themselves. The young spruces which spring up here and there throughout the lores! struggle along under the heavy crowns ol llu hard woods, where u tree making more insistent demands upon light could not snt v i\ e In the forests id the southern Ap palacldans the oak is in many localities tin* characteristic live. Hd'owiiug rap idly and exceedingly hardy, it might be expected to increase steadily its pro portion hi llu* mixtuiv llu- equilibri um is maintained through the fact that the oak can cudim* but little shade and that its seed is heavy, limiting its reproduction to the immediate vicinity of t he parent tree. In the same ivgkm the yellow poplar and the chest unit. both trees which grow rapidly mui arc c.qwihle of etulur iug c »nsid**rah|e shade, are eonlrollod. the one because much «q its seed is barren, llu* oilier Iwcaiev many of the nuts are eaten by animals .Mat tin* red cedar, of slow growth and sparse representation, is aided through the distribution of Its seeds by birds, xvitli their power to germinate unimpaired. The aspen, short lived and requiring much light, holds its own with longer lived and shade enduring lives Ur- a use its downy seed is produced in great quantities and .s scattered far and wide by llu* wind. The ash and the basswood, of rapnl growth and bearing ail abundance of seed, are withheld by strong dem.iiul' upon light and by the ftee.l of a fresh and fertile *oil The red tir. equaled by few North American troes in rapidity of growth and other wise well equipped to gain the upper band in its region, is cuiilrolVod llw ougli the usual failure of its seed to gorud mite except when acci-icid lies remov ed the leaf litter and expo.*, -t llu* mill oral soil The study of tree-; as living, striving organisms hi a world of t licit* own leads an almost human Interest in the forest I'.veiy day spout ill the woods will be the pleasanter for some insight gained Into what is going on whtliin it. and an earnest observer can gain knowledge of practical value by an at tempi to discover the fnetor* which control the occurrence of trees in mix tore Uorestry. which deals witli the development of tlu* highest utility of forests, means a t boring I*. utMlerstiiml lug of tlu* habits of lives.

FREEBOOTERS la Hum land They W ere Mow* Troop era, lu Ireland ftloictrottera. Moss troopers in olden days in l'ng land infested the marshy country of , Liddesdule and subsisted chiefly by rapine. Such freebooters in Ireland were called bogtrotters, apparently for a similar reason. Sir Walter Scott, in the “Lay of the Last Minstrel,” introduces the word thus: A fancied moss trooper, the boy The truncheon of a spear bestrode And round the hull right merrily In mimic foray rode. This name was also given to maraud ers upon the border. Mr. Caindcm calls them borderers and describes them as a wild and warlike people. “They are called moss troopers,” says Fuller in a long account of them in his “Worthies of Flight ml,” “because they dwell In the mosses and ride in troops together. They dwell in the bounds or meeting of two kingdoms, but obey the laws of neither. They come to church, as seldom as the ‘29th of Febru ary comes into the culeudar.”—Pear son's Weekly.
