Once commercially unimportant, It now is used extensively in production of pulpwood, box lumbar, mine timbers, cabin logs, piling, poles and posts. According* to the U. S. depart* ment of forestry, the present total area of Jade pine hi the lake states is slightly more than S minim. acres. Present total merchantable volume is estimated at IS cords. Total merchantable volume includes more th^n 8 mniun cords of pulpwood and S billion hoard feet of sawlogs. The remaining 1.666 million cords are substandard cord* wood. The current annual growth of Jack Pine In the lake states la fa the neighborhood at 45 million cubic feet, or about 18 cubic feet per acre per year. This la only one-third of what can be produced under favor* able .conditions of stocking. Depending on ags and site, a fufiy stocked acre of Jack pine land should grow from 25 to 86 cubic feet per annum.' , Straight Railroad | j The longest stretch of railroad i without a curve in the United States is the 79 miles of the Seaboard rait road between Wilmington let, N.

The young Phalins have been residents of Indian Ridge since their marriage in February. Mr. and Mrs. J. A. Scott and son Terry Wayne of Lakewood, Ohio, were guests ove r the weekend in the home of Mr. and Mrs. Robert Scott of Wonder Center. This was the first reunion between the Scott brothers for more than a year. The visiting considerably cheered Mr. Scott who had been recuperating from a bout with the flu. ages for the sake of bee sting treatments. The natural venom of the bee contains a poisonous substance similar to canthardin end a sapotoxin somewhat similar to that found in snake venom. The physiologic eff^pts produced by injections of the venom of bees are said to be •nalogous to the effects of administering histamine. Since the procedure employed by bringing about the stinging of patients by live bees is somewhat hazardous, methods of harvesting the venom have been developed. On the basis of the evidence available at this time, bee venom therapy cannot be recommended, says the association. \ o \°v Correct alignment will save yoo money--give you more tire mileag* FRONT WHEEL TOE-IN CORRECTION GREEN STREET PHONE 98-M Briig Yovr Tlr* * Wh**l TrowbU to TIM SEIVICC HEADQUARTKS ^IIIIIKllililllllllllllllillllllllllllllltllllllilHllllllllilliillllllllMMIHIII'lHNtttlHttl MARTICKE & NIXON Hrerside Drive and Elm McHenry PHONE McHENRY 424 rniiiiiiiiiiiiiitiiiiiiHHiiitiiiiiiiiituHiiiiH!iiiii!ii!ii!ii:ntiii!i:mitiiiffliiiHi!iiiiiiiiiitiHui:u]iiiHimiitii:ii:uiit!(R New Synthetic Robber ~-A chemist recently has patented a \>ew synthetic rubber, belonging to khe neoprene family, but with fluorine substituted for the customary ichlorine.
