Notwithstanding the increased
use of cement, steel and other
building materials, the use of wood
continues to increase and increases
at a rate that is alarming. It
causes US to stop and wonder what
people are going to do for wood or
timber after a few decades. AS
rapidly as the population OF the
United States is increasings the
lumber consumption is increasing
still more rapidly. The increase
in population from 1850 to 1900
was So per cent, but the increase
in lumber cut for the same time
was approximately ga per cent.
The above bulletin, issued by
the government, should tend to
stop the vast waste of timber going
Z
on in the country. The statement
is made that only one Of the large
nations of the earth, besides the
United States, has more timbeE
than it will consume and this coun.
try is Germany. But what will
such an insignificant supply ;
mount to when all Of the other ma
Itions are clamoring for timber
Probably no section on earth ha:
been more wasteful with its rich
natural resources than the south
ern states, and the vast areas q
magnificent timber have suffered
more, possibly, than anything els'
by waste. Great forests Of oFigt
nal timber of the finest quality
have been destroyed to make wal

But it is not TOO late to men'
our ways. II is true that mao.

Extracting the Principle o, Plant,

A new method of obtaining the ac.
tive principles OF plants In the state
in which they exist IL the fresh plant
is used with success by the French
scientists. Prof. Perrot By his means
he obtains extracts OF different ma.
ture from what are given in the usu.
al processes where dried plants are
employed. Such extracts can be used
to great advantage, as they contain
the active principles OF the plants in
a more suitable and unaltered form.
Thus. by his process. the leading ac.
tive principles such as alkaloids or
glucosidcs and diastases are preserved
In their complex combinations Just as
they existed in the cells OF the plant,
and under this form It is found that
their action on the human body Is
identical with that OF the fresh plant.
Such combinations are rendered sta.
bic by treating the sterillzed powder
OF the freshly dried plant by alcohol
SO as to make an extract This Is
then evaporated In vacuo and then
freed from from fatty matted. wax, OF
resin. then dried by cold process
Such extracts are soluble In water.
