More forest plantings were made last, year than in 1930 Wilcox .naid, and the afofs planted were increased in total acreage by 48(5 acresTin 1931 forest plantings from the stat, nursery were divided a-si follows
126 acres; stripped-over coal lands, 175 acres; on private game preserves 234 acres, and on farm lands, 651 acres. Indiana Black walnut trees are to he introduced in Hawaii, Wilcox said, and 1,000 black walnuts were shipped to C. S. Judd, territorial forester at Honolulu, who ordered them for experimental plantings In preparation for the 1932 planting, the forestry division has collected 850,000 black walnut- which have been tested and stratified, Wilcox said. In addition the state nursery will have available nearly 2,000,000 trees, providing stock for one of the greatest tree planting campaigns ever possible in this state.

"It won't be our fault, and Haste « if it doesn t. ptetty soon I” Jim said to himself now. Inspector Haste's name was in itself a good omen I "By the way, Sant."

I he sound of footsteps running excitedly across the hall had broken in upon
them.
I here came a hurried tap at the door and sw dtly upon it the door was flung open wi i an indecorous lack ol ceremony on the part ot the man ol whom they had tust spoken. Martin’s face at the open doorway was white and incredibly startled, a 1 if from some shock. He was breathing like a man who had been running hard. Hi- scared eves seemed to he starting out ot hi- head "Good Lord, Martin ” began Sam m frowning displeasure Mt. Sant I Mr. Sant I” broke out the man. "Can I speak to you at

With the first sight of his white

shutting the doui after him. Through the closed dooi those
within the room could hear low excited voices, and then suddenly one ot the voices. Martin's voice, went involuntarily shrill in his strangely

Hie * ed shaking voice floated into the room audible to everyone there above the dying strains of the
gramophone;

"Escaped I”
Martell had started up from his chair as it his first unguarded impulse had been to run out after Sant into the hall to learn the news Mar. tm had brought—news no doubt that nirant * s '"uch to him as to Sant.
