Her modest beauty their hearts would

Or does this little poetic touch

llest Season to Cut Timber.
Qvustion.—W the hen tipiber is tho for best durability? season

There #eems to be various opinions ou
this subject.
AnswkkV—Y ou era entirely correct in
the shite me nt that there ary various
opinions on thi«? Wbjeot, and ^uilgh& even in
^
c .
— ineo may bfi foSCd who will cow
salt some out Of-date fifid
whether the moon and the siglifl a
right before they will cut timber of any
description or for any purpose. Of
course such gujdes are worthless and
are simply remnants of past supersti
tionsin which our ancestors behoved, 1
but which modern science has proved to
be false. There is, however, a proper
time to cut timber where durability is
desired, and the reason for it is plain
and simple. "Other things being equal
timber will naturally last longest if the I
tree is foiled at a season when the wood
contains the smallest amount of sugar
or starch, or oilier matters fit to feed j
fungi and worms." So says Stoter, the
R. best a a aUthority ntithnritv that thut could could be bo auoted quoteQ on
the subject. At uhat time of the yw
thenU the tree in the condition lp<M
cated? Why plainly when the spring
• nd early summer growth is completed
and the winter's store of starch, sugar,
ate., is exhausted in the making of
leaves, twigs, fruit, new wood, etc. Con- j
sequently ih^ the late summer aufl fall are
timber. proper An season. eminent *"£**«» authority says,
that when timber is cut m the epriug,
when the sap is rich in sugar, the ier
meutative prooess changes tlie sugar
iuto'auacid, which is the very first stage j
of deoav, aud thus early started, can It j
be wondered at that posts aud orossties j
do not last as long as they would if out
when theso couditioos could uot possi- 1
bly exist. In 1800 in Virginia a fence j
was set with poste split from an oak ;
cut when the leaves were ot full size
and vigor. Twenty-two years after
wards these posts wore taken up and re
set elsewhere and most of them are
doing duty yet after being used
more than St) years. Had these posts
been cut iu March or April they would
uot have lasted over ten years at the
utmost. Away back iu the time ai Ju
Iius Caesar it was found that ships from were
not durable when built of timber
tree* that had been cut down in the
spring. And the Roman architect, Vi
trurtus, held that "trees shoukl never
be felled in the spring.” While at that
time the want of durability • m spring
felled limber was attributed to wrong
causes, still the effect was well known.
and the people were notified of it.
Now as regards cutting timber to be
used as fuel, doubtless the winter is the
best time for that purpose, for as an
eminent writer on the subject of cord says
"any given number of sticks
wood that have been cut in the winter
wcmld naturally weigh more aud con¬
tain more combustible heat producing aud kinds
B **‘. than the came number
of sticks , cut in the summer, afh r -i,~ the
jtnrch. etc., had passed out from them,
j Aliother valuable point * is that trees
cut . the . , lat^ will seia* j ___ up l ut
in summer
f t w shoots and sprouts as compared
1 with those cut from Deoeniber to Marcli.
i This is important to those wh'o Wish to
destroy any particular kind of tree, or
j to clear laud. To sunt up:
j 1. Timber for posts, rails, building
j ‘ purposes, aud etc., eafly should fall. be cut in .the late
summer and
2. For fuel cut in midwinter, up

We believe that progressive Washington and vicinity, with its keen business
judgement. Is thoroughly apace with the times and recognizes the superiority of pro¬
fessional merit.
In the era of almost vital competition the survival of the fittest is becoming more
and more pronounced, especially along professional lines, this is noticeably so in
dentistry. To bo successful requires constant study and application. To-day
the dentist who succeeds must liaye the latest ideas, the most cheerful surroundings,
be honest, intelligent and kind, and use every possible .-Sort to mitigate the suffering
of his patients. ’This is our constant aim.
We fully realize that the time has passed when the public will be deceived by
high sounding phrazesann promises that are impossible of fulifillment. So we claim
nothing that we are unable to do, and are not competing with cheap John dentists.
We want to call your attention to a few facts m regard to our business in ^lis
city.
First—By use of our Catapborotis we can drill out the cavities of teeth and even
take out the nerve without the slightest pain to the patient.
Second—That we alone manufucture and use Aroppeue for the painless extrac¬
tion of teeth.
Third—That it is perfectly harmless, and can he placed on the gums of children,
oldpeoelc, adults, delicate or strong, with equal impunity.
Fourth—That our artificial teeth are true to nature, restoring lost contour and
expression.
Fiftli—That in placing of gold, and porcelain crowns, and gold crown and bridge
work, we have paid special attention to this new line of work, and are using only tiro
very latest methods and appliances.
Sixth—That we fill teeth with Gold, Platinum, Amaigum, Silver, Gntterpercha
or Cement, method artistically and well and guarantee them to be satisfactory and to last. We
take this of letting the people know we are here to stay, and will for a short
time give SPECIAL LOW PRICES, and invite the most critical examination of our
office and work. Call aud have your teeth examined by a competent dentist. No
charge.
