GYPSUM INDUSTRY PROSPEROUS.
Value of Output in 1918 Reported by
Geological Survey at Six and Three
Fourths Million Dollars.

| Gypsum, the rock that makes plaster
of Paris, was mined in the United
States in 1913 to the extent of 2,599,50s
short tons, an increase of 9S,75l tons
over the production OF 1912, according to
IR. w. Stone, of the United States geo.
logical survey The total value of
gypsum and gypsum product produced
in 1918 was S6774,s22, compared with
SO, 500, a0s in 1912, an increase of S2l0,-
Igl4. Gypsum sold crude without cal
ching and used principally as an ingre-
dent in Portland cement and paint and
as land plaster amounted to 463,l36
short tons, valued at S697 ,,066, which is
a good increase over the business of
| 1912. About IS per cent of the gypsum
sold crude in 1918 was used for Portland
cement at an average value of SLAB a
ton. The quantity sold for this purpose
is steadily increasing. The quantity of
gypsum sold crude for land plaster has
remained stationary for four years, but
the average price dropped in 1918 from
S202 TO sl.75 ton.
There was an increase of 42,l75 tons
in the amount of eslcined gypsum sold
in 1913. vet the average price per ton
was S343-the same as in 1912. A total
of l6S0l57 short tons was calcined for
wall plaster, keenes cement, plaster of
Paris. etc. About l,l50,000 tons of this
amount was used for mixed wall plaster,
the socalled cement plaster and hard
wall plasters of the building trade.
II is interesting TO note that only 10
years ago Gin 1909 did the output OF
the gypsum industry first pass the mil
lion-ton mark. The present production
of over 2.5O0O00 tons, as shown by the
figures. goes very largely into the man
ufacture Of Portland cement and of hard
wall plasters. So long as concrete con-
struction remains in public favor the
demand OF Portland cement manufactur-
crs for gypsum as an ingredient assures
the gypsum industry OF good business az
points near Portland cement mills, and
the increasing sales Of hard wall plaster
speak well for its success.
A marked advance in the quantity
and value Of gypsum imports was made
in 1918. There was an increase Of 34.-
Csc tons Of unground gypsum over i'm
rortations OF 1912. the total importa
ton Of unground gypsum in 1918 being
al .3S8 short tons valued AZ S473 .5e4.
These figures wiil later appear in a
chapter OF mineral resources on the
gypsum industry IN 1918. The chapter
win also contain descriptions 81 the oc-
cuuenoes Of gypsum IN = states and IN
Alaska.

rectors that he had decided to accept
their offer, but that be had agreed to
play with the Hartford, Conn, team
yesterday, Hartford made an effort to
secure him permanently.
There has been intense interest in the
baseball situation here the past few
days, due to the fact that on account OF
the teams reported defeats the fans
were demanding change in manage
ment At a meeting Friday night the
directors voted to drop Manager f. L.
Breckenridge, who led the team to the
championship the first season.
This is naturally the best baseball

HELPING OUT PASTURES BY SOIL.
ING CROPS
JARED VAN wAGENEN. JR.


Thoughtful dairymen realize that,
while in northern states cows are in the
field five months, yet there are only
about six weeks or two months when
pasture alone is sufficient to enable
them to do good work, so progressive
dairymen are adopting some plan of sup
plementing pastures and thus maintain
ing a better flow of milk throughout the
year. There are various ways OF doing
this. Merely feeding grain in connecs
ton with scanty pasture is expensive
and unsatisfactory. The cost is too
great. Besides, what is needed is some
form of fresh, succulent food, rather
than dry grain.
1t is possible to plan succession of
soiling crops which maintain constant
supply Of green food throughout the
summer He may plan rye sown in the
fall to furnish green rye in early spring
This may be followed ten days later by
green wheat, which may be followed by
alfalfa, which can be fed until the first
cutting of red clover. When the clover
begins to harden, a plot of peas and
oats will just be coming into head, and

The New Health.

The new health, as a social IDEAL sig
nifies that in our day, because OF our
new knowledge, our new science of sani-
tation. our new conscience, our new
spirit of brotherhood, our new democra-
CIV. our new social intimacy of under
standing, we are coming to feel about
the public health as our fathers have
felt about religion, education, liberty,
and nationality.
We are to feel that health is funda-
mental and inalienable, that it imposes
sacred obligations, calls us to willing
concern, makes us ashamed of in
efficiency, stupidity, and graft, because
thew mean disease, raises us to new
level of brotherhood, of citizenship, of
sonship to a common Father and of joint
parental responsibility to the heritors of
a racial stock whose full inheritance con
sists, not merely of the germ plasm of
a fortuitous set of parents, but OF all
that we jointly bestow upon the gen
Grafton to which they belong.
The emphasis then will be not upon
disease, but upon health; not upon pa
thology, but upon hygiene; not upon
germs or germicides, but upon life and
vigor; not upon the shady side, but upon
the sunny side; not upon weaknesses
and abnormalities, but upon work and
play, healthy activities and pleasurable
functions. Thus the new health will
represent a positive way of looking at
life. not a series of subtractions of pains
and terrors We shall think of our
selves as conquering new territory in
order that we may 20 up and enjoy it;
not as entrenehing ourselves to ward of
formidable and unconquerable foes.-

IN THE FIELD
OF SPORTS

Neither Walter johnson nor Dubuc OF
the Tigers is hitting very strong this
season. Both are regarded as excellent
Ihitters--players who would be allotted
regular berths with their respective
teams because of their hitting prowess
in event of their pitching arms being
disabled Both pitchers are hitting only
around 200.
Battling Nelson, that famous light
weight, holds a worlds record when it
comes to short knockouts. He paid Billy
Ressler away. in two seconds at Harvey
ILL.,, in April, 1902. Next comes the
fight between Sal Hawkins and Martin
Flaherty, which took place in the same
ring where Fitzsimmons knocked out
| Jim Corbett at Carson City in 1897.
This was won by Hawkins in four sec
onds.
The Detroit Tigers are sorely missing
the services of Ty Cobb, their premier
batsman, during the present invasion of
the East. Cobb was disabled with a
fractured thumb at Detroit few weeks
ago. While practicing recently he again
injured himself and will be out of the
y
less, the Tigers are holding their own in
the East.
Heine Zimmerman of the Cubs bears
the distinction of being the most timely
hitter in the big leagues this season.
The eccentric third sacker has already
passed the 80 mark. There are a group
practically tied for second honors, but
quite distance in the rear of thinner
man. Among these are Baker, McInnes,
and Collins of the Mackmen, Lewis of
the Red Sox, Shanks OF the Senators,
Walker of the Browns, and Wheat of
the Superbas. Each Of the second group
has hit in 40 counters. The Baker, Nc
lines and Collins trio of the Mackmen
excel any other trio. They have driven
in lis scores. Magee, Cravath and Luz
derus of the Phillies have accounted for
100 scores. The Red Sox have a strong
combination in Lewis, Speaker and
Gardner, who have pounded in 80 OF
their teams scoring output.
McElwee, the star third saeker of the
Keene club, is virtually the leader for
batting honors in the Twin State league.
He is hitting for .42l in IA games. Fer

Just eight men on the team too fresh to

but all they allege is that Viewpoints
tactics on the field are too rough. In

PLAYERS allege they received rough treat

is satisfied with his Keene team. He
says there has been but one change in
the teams personnel since the season
started and that there will be no more
for some time.

if there have been two or three sowings
of these week or ten days apart, they
will last until the early corn is ready TO
feed, and the corn--frst the early and
then the later varieties--will last until
frost. 1t would even be possible to add
a crop of rape to feed until cold weather.
Summer Silage Best.
Now, the foregoing is very fine the
ory of COW feeding, but it doesn't work
in practice. Some crops may be partial
failures and some may be used before
the next is ready; also, soiling cows
means cutting and drawing green food
every day regardless of weather con-
ditions or what other work presses. All
these considerations have led the writer
to feel that there is just one best way
to supplement pastures, and that IS by
feeding when needed corn silage put in
the previous autumn.
There are several reasons why this 10
the best way. One IL that the possible
food production from an acre of corn
ia much greater than from these other
crops Another is, it is possible to put
this corn in the silo Just when it is at
its best, whereas other crops will fire.
quently be either too green or too ripe
lust when we need them.
The difference in labor between going
for load of green oats or throwing out
supply of silage from convenient
silo speaks for itself.
The better dairymen we are, the more
we shall feed cows in addition to pas
ture, and summer silo is the easiest way
to provide the needed food
