new LUMBER OUTLETS
ARE In UNITED STATES
Must Be Developed On Farms and III
Homes, George M, Cornwall Tells U.
of o. Students.

University of Oregon, Eugene, March
1.-The most promising two ways of
stimulating lumber consumption that
are seen by George NJ. Cornwall, of
Portland, publisher of the Timberman,
were told hy him to State University
class in commerce this week.
The first is retail solicitation.
The second is the carrying of lum'
bcr by stores to sell in small lots for
minor domestic uses.
Mr.. Cornwall did not suggest these
two methods as mere minor helps: he
emphasized them as the salvation Of
the half dormant lumber industry.
He believes farmers would be much
more extensive users of lumber, for cX'
ample, if lumber agents would visit
them, show them where small invest
ment in lumber would give them a shed
to lessen wear and tear of weather on
stock or implements; or a feeding rick
that would save waste from scattering
hay; or, say, chicken houses that would
make possible winter laying. "The
sewing machine agent, the automobile
agcut, the lightning rod agent, are con.
stant visitors, yet no one suggests lum'
bcr TO the farmer,' said Mr.. Cornwall.
Especially in the middle west would
this plan Of solicitation by experienced
lumber agents greatly stimulate the
lumber trade. "
Similar increased use would result in
city and village homes il at stores par.
GELS Of dressed lumber could he bought
for window boxes, for wood boxes,
flower boxes, picture frames, and any
of hundred other small domestic uses.
"Ncarly every householder is now 60
ing without useful or ornamental wood
devices that would he made at once if
the householder did not have to 20
through the following procedure;
journey 10 the lumber yard; persuade
the yard man to sell single board
hunt the board; hire q dray to carry
1t to his home; pay the drayman; work
out his own measurements for the re.
rcptaclc; cut the board and probably
/ spoil it, said Mr.. Cornwall.
A great advertising and educational
campaign should accompany the estab.
liShment of small lumber parcels in
stores, the lecturer said This cam.
paign would point out unthought of
uses for wood, tell the householder what
sizes TO use and how to fit the pieces
| together, and impress upon him that at
his nearest store he could find these
standard pieces neatly wrapped, ready
for delivery by the next store wagon.
Only ten per cent of the American
lumber cut goes abroad, and | doubt
whether the export trade can be mater.
Ally increased. We must therefore
stimulate the business at home. The
competition Of cement and steel is en-.
rroaching upon the former standard
uses In large quantities. II is now
necessary to stimulate use Of lumber
among the 90,OOO0O0 home owners OF
the United States,n said Mr.. Cornwall

CHURCH COOPERATION
BOOSTED LAST NIGHT
Over Sixty Delegates From
Different Churches Met
at Leonard

The meeting of the delegates from
the different churches at the hotel
Leonard last night marked the begin
ming of closer unity between the
city and the upbuilding of an effort to
bolster up the attendance at the sun,
day schools, mid week services and
evening services in the churches. About
60 delegates were present at the meeting
and the enthusiasm and sincere inter
est shown indicates that the movement
will be a success in all departments.
DR.. E. F. Reames, presided as toast
master and was chosen temporary
chairman of the organization, Professor
Elliott was selected as vice chairman,
and r. w. Walton was selected as
secretary and treasurer. The recon-
mendations of the committee on organ
ization were accepted and adopted by
the meeting. The first one was that
two members should be named from
the committee to visit each church in
the city once each month to talk on
the evening service. The various pas
tors will give each of the speakers five
minutes time for short addresses. See
ond, that committee of 10 from the
original committee be appointed to look
after the Sunday schools of the city
and to make special effort to bring the
heads of the families to Sunday school
as well as the younger members of the
family. Third committee will be ap'
pointed to bolster up the mid-week
services and to make these meetings Of
such importance that the people can
not afford to miss them. One member
from each church was appointed on the
executive committee.
Rev. Carl Elliott gave a short talk on
cooperation and the relation between
the church and the layman. He brought
ont the fact that the business Of con
dueting a church is not a one.man
proposition. Rev. James Elvin gave a
talk on "What such committee can
do" Mr.. Elvin has been through a
campaign of this kind in The Dales
and gave a practical talk on the sub
icct. Rev. Hammond of Willamette
University gave a talk from the stand
point of the layman and made a report
for the committee on arrangements.
All who attended the meeting pro
nounced it success and the ultimate
good Of the movement is assured.

ACID STOMACHS
ARE DANGEROUS
Common Sense Advice by a Distin
guished Specialist.

tAcid" stomacbs are dangerous he.
cause acid irritates and inflamcs the
delicate lining of the stomach, thus
ana preventing the proper
action Of the stomach, and leading to
probably ninc-tenths Of the cases of
stomach trouble from which people suf.
fer. Ordinary medicines and medical
treatments are useless in such cases,
for they leave the source of the trouble
the acid in the stomach, n dangerous as
ever. The acid must be noutral2cd
and its formation prevented, and the
,est thing for this purpose is a tea.
lpoonful Of bisurutcd magnesia, sim.
pie antacid, taken in little warm or
cold water after eating, which not only
neutrai2cd the acid, but also prevents
the fermentation from which acidity is
developed, Foods which ordinarily
cause distress may be eaten with i'm.
punity IL the meal is followed with "A
httlc bisuratod magncsia, which can be
obtained from any druggist, and should
always be kept handy.
