Lumber Census To Include Pulpwood
Statistics.

Figures showing the amount of
wood used in the United States for
making pulp will, lit is announced,
be obtained by the Forest Service in
connection with it's 1916 census of
the lumber. industry. Because of
the increasing scarcity of the pulp
wood in some parts of the country,
the need for accurate figures show
ing the consumption of this class Of
material is realized by manufac-
turers and foresters alike and it i
expected that such figures will be
made part of the yearly statistical
work of the Forest Service. The
pulp manufacturers will cooperate
in the work, through their trade or
ganization, the Newsprint Manurac-
turers Association.
Detailed information in regard to
the amount and cost of different
kinds of pulpwood consumed in the
different States is to be collected.
Comparative figures showing the
total pulpwood consumption of the
country for 1899, 1909, 1914, and
1916 are to be compiled.
The data to be obtained, will, it IS
stated. be of considerable value to
pulp manufacturers, as we'll as o the
Forest Service. Owing to the CON
paratively small number of pulp
mills in the United States, 1t is
thought it will be possible to issue

date.
