FOREST PRODUCTS EXHIBIT, of paper pulps comprises 'temples made from each of the important woods of the northern Rockies an shows the wood fiber in both the un- bleached and bleached state. with a statement of the amount of chemicals required to bleach the fiber. These seekimene, which were prepared in the Forest Ser- vice wood chemistry laboratory in Washington, show that from many of the Rocky Mountain species, paper can be made of as good quality and as cheap as that obtained from the eastern spruce, while the abundant water power in this region offers unexcelled advantages for its manufacture. Another valuable object lesson is the collection of Douglas Fit distillation products presented to the Forest Service by a wood dis- tilling company of Oregon. These products include turpentine, rosin, tar, pitch, wood creosote, char. coal and various oils, as well as fruit sprays, disinfectants, shingle stains and other useful materials which are made from oils. All of these come from the pitchy wood of the common Red or Douglas Fir. which is plentiful throughout the Rocky Mountains and is the great timber tree of the Pacific Northwest. These products suggest great possibilities for the utilization of waste wood, as they can be obtained from pine as well as from fir. The sections of creosoted tics and timbers which were treated with preservatives in Forest Ser- vice treating plants, illustrate the thouroughness of the methods which the Service is now using in its demonstration work, while teaching wood users the best way to treat timber so as to double its life. The district office will sup- ervise the construction and ex- perimental operation of several wood preserving plants for pri- vate firms during the coming summer, in order that the use of treated ties, poles, posts and mine timbers rimy come into more common use and their value be better understood. The species display will attempt to give an accurate idea of each kind of wood that grows in the region. The twigs and cones, the bark, and the polished section of the tree trunk will help people to compare and identify trees they To be Installed in Missoula Chant. ber of Commerce. Missoula.— Acting in accord- ance with a request from the Secretary of the Missoula Cham- ber of Commerce, the district office of the forest service is col- lecting an exhibit for the Cham- ber of Commerce rooms. The collection now ready comprises paper pulp manufactured from the various woods of this region, tur- pentine an , d many other products distilled from the Douglas Fir, and samples of wood which have been given a preservative treat- ment with creosote to make them resist decay. These products will be installed very soon. To this exhibit will later be added other specimens, making a complete dis- play of each of the species found in Montana and of their products. Sections of the tree trunks, speci- men's of the twigs and flowers. and samples of the lumber manu- factured from each species will be shown. Wood which has been subjected to strength tests and photographs and eplargementa will illustrate the important phases of forestry work on the national forests. The collection do not .know,and the samples of lumber will show the usefulness and beauty of each variety for finishing purposes. The eamples of the tested woods and the photo- graphs showing testing machines and methods of operation wit' illustrate the work which is being done in the government timber testing laboratories. The series of enlarged photo- graphs illustrating the varied work of the Forest Service will be a particularly interesting feature of the display. Among the subjects pictured will be rangers fighting fires, or building roads and trails; logging and burnidg slashings on the Missoula end other National Forests; building forest nurseries, raising young trees, and reforest- ing naked lands; surveying and mapping of the forests, the graz- ing oratockun the National Forests end reasons why it should be regu- lated; and the results to be ob- tained by good forest manage- ment. Many of the photographs which are to form this part of the exhibit have not yet been taken, but they will be collected during the coming summer so that the display will be complete early next winter. Billings Polytechnic Institute. The formal opening of the Bil- lings Polytechnic Institute will occur on the second Tuesday of September, and classes will be organized Sept. 10. This now educational institution is estab- lished to give a practical educa- tion to the young men and women of the Northweet who are not now getting the training that is becoming more and more neces- sary. The need for just such an institution is illustrated in the following, which we clip from the June Bulletin, published by the Institute: \Tho eastern half of the great State of Montana is without a state educational institution, or anyother school of higher training, while Western Montana boasts of four State schools and at least three other institutions taking the name of college or university. This is not as it should be, for Eastern Montana is a Part of the State that is to have a permanent and substantial citizenship. Thru its immense agricultural resources it is appealing to the intelligent and progressive people of the East to make their homes here, and thousands of the beet families of the country are moving here to become a part of our life and citi- zentlii p. \Not only in this State, but Western Canada, Western North and South Dakota, Western Ne- braska and Northern Wyom:ng, swe without the opportunity of higher school training. This makes the largest area in the United States today that is neg- lecting the proper education of its boys and girls. Ours is not a desolate and uninhabited region, but a rich and wonderful section that will very shortly be the honie of millions of people. \But more than the lack of institutions of higher learning in this particular section is the fact that the peculiar type of edu- cation tO be offered in the Pply- technic has been neglected in all the Northwest. It is found that more than ninty-five per cent of the boys of Montana and the ad- joining states are completing their education before they are fourteen years of age, or with the most meagre grades. people training of the lower There are ten young today going out into the life of this .region untrained because theta is no instlution that fits their need, where there is one receiving the training of our present system. The demand far the Institute is practically un- limited. There is room for a dozen such schools in the North- west without iiiterfering in the least with the institutions now in existence.\ Progress In Cuba. • Witivehe beginning of the pres- ent fiscal year the Republic of Cuba established a Bureau of In- formation, President Gomez ap- pointed Leon J.
