CONCERNING PAPER.
By Frederic J. Haskin.

Because you do not write your letters
on tablets Of clay like the ancient
Babylonians you will find letter-writ-
ing something more Of luxury this
winter than It has been In the imme-
diate past. For clay is plentiful IN
these United States. but rags, owing to
stoppase Of European exports. are not.
And It is from rags-linen rags-that
our best writing paper is made. So In
Still another direction you will hnd
the war Is affecting you and your pock-
etbook.
On account Of the rag shortage. prices
OF bond, ledger and other papers made
wholly or in part from cloths have also
materially advanced and will continue
to rise until rag collections in Europe
can be resumed.
These. however. are but straws indi-
eating the way in which the winds OF
the war have blown Some of the big
effects on the paper trade of the United
States have been in other directions.
and incidentally have taught the lay
man what a surprising array of sub
stances Is used in the manufacture OF
paper. The industry. for instance. was
materially affected by interference with
the exports of Scandinavian wood pulp.
the shutting down Of the English china
clay mines, the stoppage OF shipment OF
aniline dyes from Germany and the
falling off Of casein and bleaching pow
der impor+at!ons. 1t also felt the loss
Of importations Of such things as old
ropes, FAX waste and woven wire.
But by far the most conspicuous ef-
feet Of the European conflict was on
the news print paper situation. The
very cause which sent a flood OF lex
tras" over the country and so increased
the demand for paper from 10 to 80
per cent cut OF simultaneously an I'M
portant part of the normal supply Of
its materials.

Supply Of Wood Pulp
Averts Print Famine.

time Of the outbreak of the war con-
siderable part of the ground wood
pulps used In making news print pa
per, and with the general upheaval the
European supply suddenly stopped.
A news" famine was thought to be
imminent, but with increased imports
from Canada and drafts on stored
stocks the danger period was passed.
Another interesting development has
been the arrival at eastern ports with
in the last six weeks of few cargoes
Of pulp from our own Pacific coast
through the canal.
News paper is made almost exclu-
sive1y from the pulp of spruce trees.
Some idea of how vast is the demand
OF the more than $500 daily newspapers
of the country for. paper is indicated
by the fact that one New York daily
requires for Its morning edition of
$4,000 copies sixtv-two tons of paper,
and this requires In turn all the ma
terial in ten acres of ordinary spruce
forest. For d years supply for this
paper between 1000 ard 5000 acres of
forest must be denuded. If only the
annual growth of spruce were cut, be-
tween 100000 and $4,000 acres of for
est would be required to keep this SIN
gle journal in paper.
| In the whole United States about 5000
From these figures the fears of for
esters concerning spruce exhaustion
can be readily understood. In recent
experiments the forestry service has
proved that jack pine and hemlock pro
duce excellent pulp, and these woods
will no doubt soon be largely used.
OF paper manufactured domestically
book paper leads with value of over
500, ,00O. 900 annually. and is followed
in order by news print, wrapping and
writing paper. Even the seemingly
W eightless tissue paper is turned out
in sufficient quantity to reach total
annual production of over 10000 tons,
valued at nearly $4,000 900.
The. process of manufacture of paper
consists in the reduction OF whatever
materials are used to a fibrou$ pulp
In water, the addition of filler" and
sizing materials, the felting or inter-
lacing of the hbers as they dry. and
the application of pressure. Practically
any substance containing as much as
80 per cent of cullulose, the 40 Gus
tissue of plants. can under appropriate
treatment be utilized in the making
of paper.
Simple as the process seems, it was
not made use of SO far as is known
until about 105 B. c.. when the Chinese
discovered the secret. Their knowledge
of papermaking was spread into the
near east by the Arabs in the eighth
century of this era, and was intro
duced by the Moors into Spain in the
eleventh century. BY the fifteenth
! century paper was in general use in
Europe.

Among the Eskimos Of the Boring

whalebone, furs or anything they may

thing OF value he will keep it until
some white man appears with some
thing that appeals to his eye. And
the money value of what may take
him does not make any difference to
him. If he has a trinket that may be
worth q dollar, and some one offers to
give him for it something that is
worth a thousand dollars but of which
ne has TO need he will refuse to trade.
But he VIII give anything he possesses

Safest is Cheapest.

Sunday, Nov. %, has been designated
by the National Association for the
Study and Prevention of tuberculosis,
as tuberculosis Day." and all the
churches throughout the United States
have been asked to join with the asso-
citation in an educational campaign
against this disease.
The tubercle bacilli was discovered by
DR.. Koch, 81 years ago, and the entire
civilized world has been waging war on
it ever since. The United States is
spending twenty million dollars annual
ly fighting this germ and has reduced
the death rate thirty per cent.
Pasteur says cit is within the power
of man to cause all germ diseases to
disappear from the Earth 1t is now
known to the medical world that bovine
tuberculosis is communicable to man
and that two per cent of the adult pop
ulation of the United States have tuber-
culosis contracted in this way. Before
federal quarantine was placed on the
dairy section around Chicago, many
of the tubercular dairy cattle
were shipped to Eastern Kansas and
even to this part of the state. May
not some of them be furnishing your
milk? Few dairy cows here have been
tested and test is the only proof.
While we know there are many other
important factors entering into the pro-
duction of safe milk the tubereuline
test is essential. A dairyman who con-
tends that a test is not necessary, Is
either ignorant on subject that should
be part of his preparation for the dali
ry business, or he is using cows he
is afraid to risk testing. Testing
part of a dairy herd and leaving the
more doubtful looking ones INFESTED
is no test Better learn how tuberch
bacil is disseminated and you viii know
that this is no protection whatever
Then too, what protection is a tubercu-
line test to you if your dairyman buys
a large per cent of his milk from other
sources. We are not pretending but
have papers clearing every cow IN our
herd and we sell milk from no others.
We still have every right to claim the
richest market milk IN Hays; the clean
est market milk in Hays, and the only
market milk in Hays that can be guar
anteed free from tuberculosis.
When people insist on getting their
milk at a price below the cost of pro
ducing sanitary milk they are encour-
aging dirty, unsafe milk Those who
under-se1 US do so not because they can
produce milk cheaper, but because they
do not put into the business the work
required for frst-class. milk, and their
milk is inferior. The quality of milk is
not matter of personal opinion or SEN
timent but scic.see. Woodbridge Dairy.

Inspiring Battle Pictures.

The Crimean war inspired many
wonderful battle pictures, one of the
most pathetic. perhaps, being THE
Return from the Crimea," painted by
Sir Noel PAton, showing the return
to his cottage of a corporal of Fusilier
guards with an empty sleeve. head
bandaged and a twelvemonth's beard.
He sits with closed eyes, while his
wife kneeIs at his feet and clasps his
waist. Prints of this picture are to
be seen in thousands OF homes
throughout England.
Of naval battle pictures, perhaps
the most notable is that which illus
trates the famous incident of the bat
tie of Copenhagen, when Nelson re-
fuses to see the signal of recall,
painted by Thomas NJ. Henry, the IA
nous marine artist. The painting is
one Of the most inspiring sea pictures
which have ever been exhibited.
