GOVT WILL DECIDE
WOOD PULP STATUS
Federal Officials Prepare for a
Thorough Investigation Tend
ing to Solve Paper Matter
THE APPROPRIATION IS LARGE
ProberS Provided with Plenty OF
Money to Carry On In
portant Work
THE APPROPRIATION IS LARGE

WASHINGTON, July 11.-Wood pulp
and paper making experts in Uncle
Sans employ have begun preparations
for what will be probably the most
thoroughgoing investigation ever mace
by this or any other country looking
toward a solution of the so-called
white paper problem.
That congress wanted to get at the
bottom of things was shown When II
made two appropriations amounting TO
S44. 900 for wood pulp experiments, the
agricultural bill giving $4,000 and the
sundry civil bill an additional $50, 900.
This is more than four times as much
as has ever been allowed for similar
work, and all of the money will be
available for use by the department or
agriculture.
Secretary Wilson decided before leav-
ing on his vacation that the work for
his department would be done by the
forest service, instead of splitting the
Investigations up between several
bureaus, as has been the case hereto
fore. The experiments are to be prac-
tical in every detail, and for this rea-
son they will be carried on in large
part on a commercial scale. This fea-
ture is made possible largely through
the cooperation Of the American
Paper and Pulp association, which Will
work with the government in getting
the results which are hoped for.
That part of the experiments which
1t is not necessary to carry on in the
commercial plants will be conducted i'll
the new products laboratory of the
forest service at Madison, Wis. AS
sistant Forester William L. Hall, in
charge of this branch of work, has re-
turned to Madison after trip to this
cIty to confer with other officials OF
the department concerning the inVesti-
Henry S. Graves, the chief forester,
is much interested in the plan for the
work and thinks that the experiments
will give the government the best op-
portunities it has had to help solve one
of the most important problems con-
nected with the utilization of forest
products. 1t is likely that he VIII
make a number Of trips to the Madison
laboratory and to the mills after the
work has begun. In speaking OF the
proposed work today Mr.. Graves said;
"The demand for this extensive IN.
vestigation into the manufacture or
paper pulp from American woods other
than the fast dwindling spruce was
brought about partly out of the IN
creased consumption Of products by the
Los Angeles herald., 1910-07-12

paper using industries and partly be-
cause of the prohibition of the export
of pulp wood cut from crown lands by
several of the Canadian provinces. To
insure a permanent supply Of paper
pulp for the making Of news, wrapping
and other cheaper grades Of paper 1t
seems certain that this country must
depend principally upon the conserva-
ton and economical utilization OF the
forests within it's borders.
1.-The method known as the ground
wood process, consisting of pressing a
two-foot stick Of wood by hydraulic
pressure against a revolving grind
stone, Is the cheapest process of pulp
manufacturer and besides produce a
much larges quantity of pulp than the
chemical processes. The spruce is prac-
ticaly the only kind of wood used in
the ground wood process. The demands
upon the remaining spruce supply are
very great, and as the cheap production
of the lower grades of paper depends
largely upon the cheapness of the pro-
cesses, one of the most important lines
of work Of the government experts will
be directed toward determining how
far the more abundant and cheaper
woods can be used to produce CONNER
cially a good grade of ground wood"

DOCTORS EFFECT CURE
FOR DREADED L0CKJAW
Hypodermic Injections of Anti
toxin Serum Effective

NEW YORK, July 11.-Science has
saved a 4-year-old boy of Brooklyn
from the terrible death of lockjaw
Physicians in the Bushwick hospital
are greatly interested in the case'
which is that of Walter Robinson.
About a month ago one of the boys
fingers was tammed in a swinging gate
in front of his home. Tetanus developed
in a few days and the boy was re-
moved to the hospital. His jaws were
locked tight and his head and feet
were drawn back by the distressing
muscular action of the disease.
While holding out absolutely no hope
for the boys recovery, the doctors be-
gan treating the lad with heroic hy-
podermic injections of anti-toxin tet-
anus serum for several days. Gradually
the rigidity of the muscles relaxed
and last night after $4,000 units of serum
had been injected the boy was able to
sit up. Physicians say he will be able
to leave the hospital in another week.
