she lost by buying those two work dresses
that shrank and could never be used
would be made up by having less to con-
tribute to pay OF the small mortgage on
the house. or less to spend on household
linens or less to spend on meat. 1t was
such a small amount that it wouldn't real

is on a dress allowance she buys more
carefully. Had she had a stated allow

was shopping that every wasteful pur-
chase meant just so much less by way of

MAMMOTH PULP
MILL TO Be BUILT
At FREDERICTON

st. John, n. g.. Nov. l9.-Fraser's
dtd.) is considering the question Of
erecting a pulp mill at Fredericton or
in the county of Northumberland. If
its plans are carried out the mill will
be built and operated by a separate
company with a capitalization of $A,-
100000 and the plant will be one Of
the finest in Canada. Archibald Fraser
informs the press that several sites
for the mill are under consideration.
The Nashwaak Pulp 4 Paper Co..
which bought the mills and lands of
the Darlington Pulp and Paper Co.. this
winter will cut 100000 feet, COM.
pared with 100000 feet last winter.
The higher prices for pulp and paper
have given a new impetus to the in
dustry. A great development Of the
Canadian pulp and paper industry Is
predicted.
The large and increasing export Of
pulp to the American market, due to
the present shortage there, will give
a foothold there which will not be
lost. 1t will also cause more capital
to flow into the industry in Canada,
and this has been one of the Difficult
ties In the past. Canada has the tim
Der and water power and COMPARE
lively cheap labor. It is also pointed
out that before the war Germany
shipped thousands Of tons of news
print IN addition to specialties, to the
British market. The German firms
secured a large market by cutting
combinations subsidized by the gov
eminent.
1t Is said that German prices were
as low as ono penny per pound less
nve per cent, against the British mill
price OF one penny net. Germany lost
this trade. and Canada therefore will
have a large British market which;
includes Australia and South Africa.
with regard to paper making, Canada
Is said to be 20 years behind the timea
IN extent Of the industry and It IA
claimed that the present output OUGHT
to be doubled.
