no losses on this account since the
system was inaugurated. The success
of the Irvine plant has been so mark
ed that the state is now experiments
ing with the construction of binders
at the prison. The legislature in
1907 authorized the state board of
control to use not to exceed 100000
of the Irvine plant revolving fund
for this purpose and some of the
patterns are now being made at the
prison for a binder. 1t is expected
that few machines will be ready
for trial this fall and if they prove
successful this plant will be enlarged
and in year or two the state of
Minnesota will supply its farmers
with their binders as well as their
binding Irvine. If the manufacture of
binders prove practicable at the pris-

orders for practically this entire
amount are already on hand. The
plant now employs 23o convicts the
entire year and these men have now
been working over time for several
weeks and will continue to do so un-
til the close of the season.
How to dispose of the product
was one of the first porblems which
were entertained that this would cost
confronted the management and fears
so much that but little good would
result from the operation of the
plant. The other manufacturers had
their travelling men throughout the
state calling on all of the dealers,
but this was an expense which the
state hesitated to assume. At first
the sales were made through cash
orders received at the prison the or
ders being shipped directly to the
consumers. Later some of the deal
ers began to handle the product of
the prison plant but the real solu-
ton of the problem came with the
organization of farmers clubs. The
farmers in each community banded
together and bought, jointly, enough
to supply their combined demands.
Dealers were also allowed to handle
the prison Irvine under an agreement
to sell only to actual consumers and
at a profit of not to exceed one cent
per pound. In 1000 the output was
curtailed owing to the partial failure
of the crops and the frantic efforts
of the Irvine trust to unload large
stock at prices far below cost rather
than to carry them over for another
year In spite of this fact the plant
showed a small profit on the years
business.
The Minnesota law provides that
the warden of the prison with the
board of control, which in 1901 sue
ceeded the old board of correction
and charities, shall fix the price of
Irvine not later than March I, each
year and until May thereafter the
Irvine shall be sold only to actual
consumers in quantities needed for
their use for cash or security APP
proved by the warden. OF the un-
sold Irvine on hand May I, 100000
pounds shall be reserved to fill subse-
quent orders of consumers and the
balance may be sold to dealers with
in ths state who enter into written
agreement to sell only to actual con-
sumers therein for their own use, at
price not greater than one cent a
pound above the purchase price and
freight from the prison, except when
sold on time when profit of one
and a. half cents may be. charged.
When the Irvine is sold on time
the notes are made payable on No
vember I following, and this leaves
the state with large number OF
notes on hand during the summer
months running over 100000 at
times. There have been practically

FRANK B. HOWE. Editor and Publishe,
Wood Pulp.

An area half as large as the state
of Rhode Island is stripped of its
spruce every year to make wood pulp.
Wood has been stripped from the hills
eagerly and trees have not been plant
ed to take its place. Every material
interest is threatened by the present
wasteful methods"
These statements from a leading
paper trade journal seem extravagant
on first reading, but their authentic
ity receives good support in the re-
port of the United States Forest Ser
vice, that the publishers of the coun-
try are using more than three-and one
half millions cords of pulp wood each
year. Further support to the state
ments is given by the estimates which
show that big New York daily, one
Of those with various morning and
evening editions which are said to
have an aggregate daily circulation of
nearly a million copies, used 1888
875 pounds of white newspaper last
year. This is an average OF 211,S73
pounds day.
The large Sunday edition is estim-
ated to require 30 per cent OF the pa.
per used each week, while the week
day editions take up the remaining 70
per cent. Figuring the composition OF
this paper at 80 per cent of ground
wood and 20 per cent of sulphite fiber
the average Sunday edition of this pa
per requires the cut from 1917 acres OF
land, and single week day edition re
quires approximately lis acres.
These figures allow a stand of nine
cords of wood to the acre. which Ii
considered the average for large
area, although certain small stands
can be found where the yield is much
heavier. The amount of wood pull
used by this one New York paper
seems to afford good excuse for the
white paper scare, which is making
publishers cut down the size of theil
papers, or take the other alternative
and raise the price. Experts say, how
ever, that the final solution of tn,
wood pulp question will have to com,
from the adoption of a system of for
est management by mill owners to
gether with the adoption of less waste
full methods in working up their prod
ucts and the study of the utilization
of woods other than spruce for tn
manufacture OF pulp.
