THE USES OF PAPER.

The manifold uses of wood-pulp paper are
astonishing. That we have paper cord, pa
per bottles, paper boxes, paper houses Gin
Japan), paper collars, and paper cups is we'll
known, bat how many people have heard of
plper screws, paper window panes, paper rain
coats, paper hencoops, or paper sails for ships?
These are only Il few Of the q1aer develop
ments of the paper industry described by a
writer In the "Scientific American" who
tells Us also of the extent of the wood pulp
manufactures:
:" At first wood pulp was used entirely in
making paper, but to-day it is employed
for manifold purposes. Its use bids fair to
be lnrge for holdings, friction-clutches,
belt-puileys, gear wheels, barrels (reluforced
with wireC tubs, pals, washboards, water
pipes, conduits, caskets. bathtubs, carriage
bodies, floor covering, electric lnsulators,
umbrella-stands, furniture, imitation of leath-
er, cloth, an silk, C,early the employment
of wood-pulp is practically unlimited.
"The great consumers of wood pulp to-
day ae the paper manufacturers, who use
nearly ninety per cent of the entire produc-
ton. According to ths Bureau of Statistics,
there are ut present about $50 mills which
manufacture wood-pnll i'll this c3lntry-
The capacity of these mills is over 2,5OO,0OO
tons of pulp annually, valued at more than
$4,000, 900. In addition to this amo int,
more than 100000 tons are imported
Canada aud various countries of 81
The value of the mNterial received
abroad in 1911 was nearly $500
These figures show nm increase III the
ness Of over five hundred per cent i'll the past
ten years. and the sane time in the futur-
promises even greater strides. -O"'t0oH.

SPORTING NOTES.

With the close of the 1913 season in
the American league, Ty Cobb was found
once again at the head of the batting
list, with percentage of 800. Cobb
failed to reach the goal of his ambi-
ton, the 400 mark jackson was sec
ond with $40. Speaker of the Red Sox
closely followed jackson with 1865. Col
Inns, Laioie and Baker finished in the
order named. No other Boston regular
besides Speaker managed to creep up
into the 800 class.
Provided w. +. Baker of New York,
the heaviest stakeholder in the Philadel-
phia National club, will swing his votes
to Charlie Doom, the latter will be re-
appointed manager of the Phlllies. At
