prce OF Paper Advancing.

In these days of high paper prices.
high wages and an advance in the
cost of almost everything entering
into the makeup of a newspaper,
the publishing of paper has become
more serious proposition than in
years. More paper is demanded and
our spruce forests are rapidly being
ground up to supply the demand.
The lavish manner in which the
United States has consumed the
products of its forests and the
rapidity with which our timber
supply is melting away are wholly
unappreciated by most people. We
are now using annually 400 board
feet of lumber per capita, while the
average for Europe is about 60 feet
per capita. The country as whole
consumes every year between three
and four times more wood than all
of the forests of the United States
grow in the meantime. The rapidity
with which the newspaper is eating
up the American spruce forests is
causing alarm among officials of the
government, who have been looking
into the matter The conversion of
spruce timber into paper is going on
at the rate of l.T65. 900 feet for
every working day in the year. And
most of this timber Is cut in the
the United States, although few
wood pulp logs are imported from
Canada. During 1905 the news
paper demand alone consumed 900,-
600 tons of manufactured white
paper This was one-third of the
output of all the paper mills in the
country. To make it required ar
army of Is, 600 men who drew &c..
OOO. 600 in wages. The mills used
raw material amounting to 300. .OO(
cords. representing the cut of about
l00, 600 acres.
