WOOD WASTE USED IN
MANUFACTURES OF PULP

WASHINGTON, D. C.-The use OF
a steadily increasing amount of wood
| waste in the manufacture of pulp is
indicated by figures compiled by the
Forest Service. Although the PUN
industry showed decline in the last
year for which complete figures are
available Q914 on account of the
increasing cost of raw material and
general business conditions, more
wood waste was used than in any
previous year.
Approximately 100000 cords of
waste with value of 100000 were
utilized by 35 of the 200 pulp and
paper mills of the United States. 1t
is thought that as the price of cord
wood goes up the amount of wood
waste used will become greater.
The Canadian pulp industry has, it
is stated, had vigorous growth dur
ing the last few years and the great
er portion of it's product marketed
in the United States. An average
cost of about $3.50 per cord, as com
pared with the $40 to SIC per cord
which many manufacturers in this
country are paying for pulpwood, is
the reason given for the growth.
1t is pointed out tina the develop
ment of the supplies of spruce in the
National Forests of the West and in
Alaska, together with the abundance
of cheap water power, will eventu-
ally attract the paper industry to To-
cate in those regions. Suitable pulp
timber can be delivered to desirable
mill sites for the next twenty to for
ty years at prices of about $3.50 to
81 per cord, say experts of the For
est Service. 1t is thought that the
low price of material and power will
more than Offset the higher freight
rates on the product to the eastern
markets.

just received. You apparently have
overlooked the fact that the entire
steel industry of Pennsylvania is de-
pendent on Lake Superior ores ex-
cepting to the extent of very small
supply of foreign ores. Pennsylva-
MIA makes one-half Of the steel pro-
duced in the United States, but all
of this is made out of ores brought
from Lake Superior district and a
limited amount of foreign ores, the
entire production of iron ores ir
Pennsylvania being too small to be
given any consideration and amount
ing to only about l per cent. of the
total amount of ores used in the
State. My contention has been t.
try to save the Government from
making the fatal blunder of contin-
uing armor-plate making in Penn
sylvania, where all of it is now cen
tered, since that State and its steel
interests are just as dependent upon
Lake Superior ores as are Western
steel-making districts. There are
great iron ore supplies in Alabama
and Virginia as you suggest, as well
as in other Southern States, but it
will take time to adequately develop
them in order to save the Govern
ment from its present dependence
upon Lake Superior ores, and this
development should be begun on a
large scale at once. Permit me to
suggest that you are mistaken in
supposing that "if the Lake Superior
ores were not obtainable" the Gov
eminent still would not lack for ma
terial to make armor." The Govern
ment would be just as helpless and
unable to secure the materials for
armor-plate as would be the COM
mercial interests of the country in
their inability to secure structural
steel and other steel needed by COM
merce." When once the Lake Super
Tor district supply has been shut of,
Pennsylvania iron and steel inter
,sts would collapse as completely as
would iron and steel interests of the
Lake Superior region, for all alike
depend upon Lake Superior ores.
The only possible salvation of he
situation, and it will be a fearful
mistake for the Government not 20
recognize this, is to build armOr-
plate and munition plants in the
Central South or Southwest, so that
all of these interests may not be de-
pendent wholly upon one ore supply
as they are at present. Please do
not overlook the fact that under eX
listing conditions the Government
could no more secure the materials
'or armor-plate making if the Lake
Superior district were shut off than
could the business interests of the
country secure the material for struc-
tural iron and steel, and this like
wise applies to guns, large and small,
and to munitions of war. To fail to
take account of this situation would
be a mistake of incalculable posi-
bilities of evil.

had been informed of the intentions
of the firm.
The following statement was made

TROTT|NG
MARE MEETS DEATH
Maggie S., Owned by Bloom

Accident.

The trotting mare Maggie S.. be-

field, was so badly injured in an ac
cident last Saturday afternoon that
the animal was shot by DIR. Wilfred

TO end its, sufferings.
Mr.. Cogan, at the time OF the acci-
dent, was driving the animal hitched
to a sulky, on Glenwood avenue.
Bloomfield. As he approached the
bridge of the Lackawanna railroad.
over Glenwood avenue, a train was
approaching the bridge. He stopped
the animal until the train could cross
oyer. The. noise of the train on the
iron bridge frightened the animal and
she bolted into Conger street. The
frightened animal got beyond Mr.. Co
gan's control and ran up onto the
Conger street sidewalk in tho rear of
the William c. Corby Coal Company's S
office
Near the sidewalk on vacant
lot lay a number of steel shutes used
to shoot coal into cellars, and the ami
NAL stepped onto the end of one of
these. The other end flew up and
struck the mare right in the stom-
ach and imbedded itself there, almost
tearing the side out of the animal.
The cliute was removed aal ih2 %ri

When DR. Harrison arrived he
said that nothing could be done
to- save the animals life. Maggie S.
was sorrel in color. and several fire.
quenters of Waverly race track tried
to- buy her. the latest offer made for
the mare being $1,000, which Mr.. Co
gan refused about two months ago
The mare had just turned four
years old and was going fast, but Mr..
Cogan would not allow her to make
record. Outside Of the money loss
Mr.. Cogan feels the loss of the mare
very much. for she was only four
teen months old when he bought her
and he has attended her like a baby
ever since.
