The discovery of a new way of ex tracting turpentine, made two years ago by Dr. Charles H. Herty, work ing under the direction of the Bureau of Forestry, is resulting in a complete change of methods by turpentine oper ators all over the south. In a bulletin published last spring by the bureau of forestry the claim was niade that the experiments with the new cup and gutter system of turpen tining had resulted in an increase over the old boxing system of 23 per cent in the amount of the product extracted. This figure has now been raised to more than 36 per cent. In other words, Dr. Herty's system, when universally adopted in the south, as it is bound to be sooner or later, will have increased the turpentine production of this coun try by more than a third, provided the same number of trees are used. Two years ago when Dr. Herty first made known his discoveries he put 20,000 cups into operation. Last year this figure was increased to about 400,000. Ttiis year a- conservative estimate, places the number of cups to be used at 3,000,000. The figures jfive some in dication of the rapidity with which tur pentine operators'are adopting the hew' system. The change of methods has been so rapid that the pottery company which undertook to supply operators with earthen cups has been unable to keep up with its orders and has been bbliged to -refuse contracts for over 2,000,000 cups. It is safe to say (hat the majority of the, large tur pentine operators in this country have given pthe boxing system and will £xtc*ct their turpentine by means of '(tap* And gutters. economic saving of this new ^Uctovery iS (:normous, Jit not oiily tnis, but hoW well it (iifts here that are bargains in price, beautiful in style, full of j£race and elegance, and the kind that last a lifetime.

AH Mail Orders ffivmt prompt attention. causes a great increase in the amount of turpentine produced, but it is a most important factor iri saving the pine forests of the south. Every one knows that trees from which turpen tine has been extracted by the old meth od—"boxed" timber it is called—soon die from the wounds inflicted on them. 'JTie cup and gutter system, on the other hand, is not fatal to the life of the tree, and does very little damage to the timber. The bureau of -forestry has .arranged to give the personal asisstarice of Dr. Herty to turpentine operators whp jb« sire to install the new system. V GOLD WIN SMITH. A familiar figure in Toronto is Gold win Smith. Every fine day he take's his carriage drive and one sees a shrunken old man, as thin as he is tall, silent and grave of demeanor, preoc cupied, it would seem, with his own thoughts. "One might make the mis take 1 of supposing," said an observer, "that the aged citizen—he has celebrat ed his eightieth birthday—was a dys peptic pessimist, that life had lost its charm for him and that time had for gotten him in its merciless march to ward a future that is never overtaken. Such is one picture of the old profes sor—a mental snap shot taken from a curbstone."
