2. Kendall, Montana, May 5, 1903 BiLuort - f OF CIGARS SMOKED, interent Ina Facts Revealed by Figs stre• in the Report of Internal Revenue Commissioner. In one year 6,905,749,968 cigars were consumed by the cigar smokers of the United States. For every one of the 365 days of the year, beginning June 30, 1901, and ending June 30, 1202, 18,- 919,862 cigars were consumed. Or, it might be said, in every second of the 24 hours, comprising each day, 216 stubs were thrown away. There were 90 cigars consumed for every man, woman and child in the United States, says a Washington corA:spondent of the Chicago Inter Ocean. The information upon which these figures are based was gleaned from the annual report for the fiscal year 1902 of the commissioner of internal revenue, recently issued by the United States treasury department at Wash- ington. The estimates are made upon the receipts from the sale of revenue stamps for the payment of tax on domestic and imported manufactures withdrawn from warehouses for con- sumption. ' In order to place it more readily within the grasp of the reader, if the entireumber consumed in the year were laced end to end they would reach distancof 490,465 miles, which b is more than 19 times the circumfer- ence of the earth. The average yearly increase in the number consumed for the past five calendar yeers is 573,233,161, or more than half a billion a year. It the present rate of increase continues, ten years hence, in 1912, the people of this country will be smoking at the rate of 12,000,000,000 cigars annually. As enormous as the number may seem, the cigars smoked last year do not represent one-third of all the to- bacco consumed. The consumption of cigarettes alone ia estimated at the approximate number of 2,653,176,130. From this source the government real- ized in tax .2,687,139.55. The nuother of pounds of tobacco and snuff, which does fleet include ci- gars and cigarettes, produced last year was 298,048,339 and 17,671,136, re- spectively, making a total of 328,464,- 428 pounds. Dec:acting the amount ex- ported, 13,118,431 pounds, and adding the amount imported, 373,47s poune:s, gives 315,719,475, which represents ap- proximately the number of pounds of tobacco and snuff cOnsumed in the United States last year. In the fiscal year 1901 the production of tobacco and snuff was 320,019,531 rounez. The increase in 1902 was 8,444,987 pounds. The increase in the quantity of to- bacco and snuff withdrawn for con- sumption was 4,925,915 pounds; the in- crease in tobacco and snuff exported was 3,594,301 pounds, and the increase in tobacco and snuff imported was 75,319 pounds.' FORESTRY FOR FARMERS. Suggeationo for Theft. Guidance in the Matter of Economy lin Timber Cutting. The farmers of this country own about 500,000,060 acres of woodland. ' ten times the acreage of all the federal forest reserves. Most of it consists of small wood lots from which the own- ers derive their timber supplies for farm purposes. It was to help the farmer in caring for his timber land that the bureau of forestry several years ago under- took to furnish him, without cost, the serviCes of its foresters. The offer proved popular, says a Washington report, am, applications for assistance have far exceeded the ab.lsy of the bureau, with its limited number of trained foresters, to answer them. During the season just passed the bureau has accomplished more than ever before in putting small wood lots under forest management and in teaching the farmer how properly to treat his timber. A great deal of wood is consumed every year on the farm for fuel, petits end other uses. Ordinarily th, ,...tiler cuts what he needs withou 1 CF to whether he is lessenini the power of his forest constantly t( yield its supplies. The result is tha the forest becomes' poorer and podre; every year and less able to furnish at WOOd . its owner needs. The skill tht farmer exercises in the tnam.gerr. • of his crops is not of the kind tha. enables him to manage properly hi, timber. He needs te's services of a forester. Usually only one visit to the . fartt by the bureau's expert is necessary and this service is given without cost to the owner. When, as occasional!) happens, a second visit is needed, the owner is required' to pay the travel- ing and living expenses of the expert wnile employed at the work. \The haray Catalpa,\ a bulletin just published, forms„ dnother contribu- tion to the series of studies of Amer- ican commercial trees which the bureau of forestry has undertaken. The value of this publication will be greatest in the middle west, where the catalpa has been planted for many years with varying success, and where even now it is imperfectly understood. The farmer of the prairie states who 'desires to put a part of his lands into catalpa, either_ for profit in selling posts and ties, or to supply his farm with timber, will find in the bulletin valuable infbrmation clearly and' sim- ply given. Remarkable Cerebration. Twelve couples recently celebrated their golden wedding together at Novi Vinodo in Croatia. Fifty years ago 24 couples were married at the same time and in the case of half of these both husband and wife are still living. M INEItAL APPLICATION NO. 94, U. S.
