PIPE MAKERS BUY
MOUNTAIN LAUREL ROOTS

Washington, Aug. ia sale of a
large quantity of mountain laurel
roots from one of the national forests
in the southern Appelachians is re
ported by officials in charge, who say
that the roots will be used to make
pipes.
The mountain laurel root is simi-
lar in appearance to the Frencf
briar, which the majority of pipe
smokers are said to prefer. The
French briar Is the root of the white
heath or "bruyere." These roots are
gathered in large quantities, and af
.er being cleaned and sawed int
blanks they are placed in hot waite
md simmered for twelve hours o
more. This process gives them tn
ich hue for which the best pipes ar
oted.. 1t is said that in 1915 the va
le of the blanks shipped to tn
ountry was almost 100000, and !
ddition a large number Of finishet
ipes were imported.

these matters have been kept. The
net surplus was only 1866 cars. The
smallest net surplus previously re-
ported on August l was that of 1907,
which was 27,S36 cars, and in the
fall of that year. there was a severe
car shortage, the net shortage rising
on October 30, 1907, to $4,000 cars.
Past experience seems to indicate
that whenever the net surplus in the
early part of August is less than l00,-
600 cars there is pretty sure to be a
net shortage beginning October or the
early part of November. There H9re
only three years from 1907 to 1915,
inclusive when the net surplus on
August l was less than this. These
were 1907, 1912 and 1913, and in every
one of them there was a car shortage
in the late fall and early winter. The
figures regarding car shortages and
surpluses and net surpluses on August
l for the last 10 years are as fol-
lows:

have also found that number OF the
various kinds of chaparral which are
abundant in the west give promise
of yielding material which will be
equal of French briau in every way.
Other woods now widely used for
pipe making are apple wood red
gum, ebony and birch, together with
smaller amounts of olive wood, rose
wood and Usage orange.
Considerable amOun,s of the lau
rel roots are being used, and officials
expect to make further sales, The
lands purchased bv the government
in the southern appalachians are re
ported to contain unlimited quantities
of laurel which is widely known fOl

itors to the mountains say that II
the spring these thlckets, or "plnl
beds" as they are called by the noun
talneers, are indescribably beautiful
and form one of the main attractions
of the region.
The sales Of laurel root will not b'
made at places frequented by tour
lists, or where the removal of the lau
rel will detract from the beauty o
