On the shore, dimly seen through the mists of the deep. Where the foe’s haughty host in dread silence reposes, What is that which the breeze, o’er the towering steep, As it fitfull blows, now conceals, now discloses? Now it catches the gleam of the morning’s first beam, In full glory reflected now shines on the stream; Tis the star-spangled banner! O long may it wave O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave! And where is that band who so vauntingly swore That the havoc of war and the battle’s confusion A heme and a country should leave us no more? Their blood has washed out their foul footsteps’ pollution. No refuge could save the hireling and slave x From the terror of flight, or the gloom of the grave; And the star-spangled banner in triumph doth wave O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave! Oh! thus be it ever, when freemen shall stand Between their loved homes and the war’s desolation!

Daniel, president of The Federal Lard Bank, which makes long-term first farm mortgage loans in this, state. North Carolina, Georgia and Florida. “In this state, as well ar. those adjoining it, land and trec& will obtain a quicker return and a larger return than in almost any other part of the United States. Experts in forestry frequently have made this statement. With the low price of land which can be de voted to the profitable growing of trees. I anticipate that the demand for land for this use will increase materially in the next few years. That recognition cf the opportun ities in forestry in this and ad joining states is becoming more- generally known is evidenced by the increased sale of land for this, purpose. “A rather large acreage has beer? purchased in the last few years for hunting cr game preserves., some of which will be handled sci entifically in the growing of .com mercial forests. Other tracts our- chased for hunting purposes pro bably will not be planted to forest trees, but tree growth in this area is so vigorous that a great deal of effort is not necessary to reforest an area; in fact, it is reseeded rather easily. “One of the principal difficul ties in bringing a young forest to maturity is the fire hazard, but this can be controlled from a prac tical standpoint at least" by Uky co-operation ef those owning large areas, and it is being done econ omically,” continued Mr. DanieL “The laws cf these states already are favorable to those holding standing timber trees to maturity. In the interest of conservatibn of our resources, regulation of the water flow and adding to the wealth in the states, the legisla- you find most becoming.

The output of forest pro ducts of North Carolina during re cent years has been about $25,000,- 000 annually, while that of Georgia has totaled about $17,000,000.” x Onion Diseases Ambitious Writer—What maga zine will give me the highest posi tion quickest?
