weak some specialtes yielding 3 to points,
while high priced issues suffered more Sc.

COTTON



NEW YORK Jan The cotton market

Liverpool was higher than due and the
market here opened steady at an advance
of 3 TO points in sympathy. As was the
tered local and Wall street selling, while re-
ports that exporters had been fair buyers
in the south late yesterday were once more
accompanied by some southern hedge selling.
These offerings were absorbed ON a scale
down by the active buying by houses with
Liverpool connections and after showing a
net loss Of about 6 10 < points, with May
selling at ~ 6Gc and July at 12.slc, the
market became stcadier.
More numerous reports Of an improved
spot demand i'm the south at full prices
seemed to restrict selling to some extent and
during the middle Of the afternoon buying
became more active following a rumor from
Galveston that the British government would
limit ocean freight rates on cotton from Gull
ports 10 Liverpool to 81 per hundred. This
Limitation would, of course. apply only To-
British steamers and a private report from
Dallas later in the afternoon said that a
message had been received there from Gal.

point OF the day.

LUMBER CENSUS
TO INCLUDE PULP
WOOD STATISTICS

Washington, Dec. 6.-Figures show
ing the amount of wood used in the
United States for making pulp will, it
is announced, be obtained by the For
est Service in connection with it's 1916
census of the lumber industry. Be-
cause of the increasing scarcity of the
pulpwood in some parts of the coun-
try, the need for accurate figures
showing the consumption of this class
of material is realized by manufacture
ers and foresters alike and it Is ex-
pected that such figures will be made
part of the yearly statistical work of
the Forest Service. The pulp manu-
facturers will cooperate in the work,
through their trade organization, the
Newsprint Manufacturers 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 well as to the For
est Service. Owing to the compare
lively small number of pulp mills in
the United States, it is thought it will
be possible to issue a report on the
work at an early date.

NATIONAL FOREST
ELIMINATION OF
1890 ACRES

Washington, Dec. 6.--As result
of recommendations of the secretary
of agriculture, based upon approved
classification reports submitted by the
Forest Service, 19,S40 acres of land
have been eliminated from the Routt
National Forest in northwestern Col
orado by Presidential proclamation.
This action is in accordance with the
policy of putting all lands in the Ma
tional Forests to the use to which they
are best suited. The area in question
is located in what is known as Hams
Creek Basin, or Elk River Park. about
20 miles north of the town of. Steam
boat Springs. and consists chiefly of
grassland with small amount of
scattered woodland.
The elimination comprises practi-
cally a solid block from to miles
long and about 4 miles wide. APP
proXimately one-third of the entire
area is already alienated and in
private ownership. Forest Service re-
ports on the classification of the area
show it to have little value for water
shed protection or other National For
est purposes: The greater portion Of
the soil itself is more or less adapted
to cultivation, but on account of the
high elevation and unfavorable cli-
matte conditions, it is believed that
the area has only low value for prac-
teal agriculture.
A classification of practically all the
National Forests is being made by the
Forest Service in order to determine
the character and suitability to agri-
culture of the land which they contain.

was partially successful, the Germans
gaining a footing in some of the adj

the French front there have been only
commandments and operations by raid
ing parties.

National Bird Reservations.
The number of bird reservations was
increased during the year by the al
dition OF the Big Lake reservation IN
Arkansas. Sixty-seven reservations
are now maintained primarily Tor
birds. The report urges the impor-
lance and necessity Of retaining as
breeding grounds for water fowl ana
other birds, tracts Of land which are
not especially valuable for agricultural
purposes. The area Of marsh land
necessary for breeding grounds is In
significant, it is said. in comparison
with the benefits which will accrue to
the public through the increase in our
supply of game birds.

Remarkable Feat

The capture of Bucharest marks the
elimination Of an operation accounted by
military commentators as one Of the most
soundly conceived and brilliantly execut-
ed strategical feats Of the great war
The beginning of the Teutonic campaign
against Rumania dates back to the Ru-
manian entrance into the war on August
q. Perhaps taken by surprise by the
speed with which the Rumanians threw
their troops across the Transylvanian
Alps into Hungary and took possession of
Kronenstadt, Hermannstadt and wide
sweep OF Hungarian territory, the Austro-
German military authorities were awake
to the opportunities in Dobrudja on the
Rumanian southeastern front Within a
few days the Bulgarians were found to be
winning signal successes along the Dam
ube. capturing Turtukai on Sept. and
silistria on the 10th. There remained then
the operation Of clearing the remainder
of Dobrhdia up to the important railway
running from the Black sea port of Con-
stanza into interior Rumania over the
bridge at Tchernavoda- This Won Mack
enzen accomplished something more than
a month later. defeating the Russo-Ru-
manian army and capturing the railway.
thus shutting of Bucharest from direct
rail communication with the Black sea
and cutting the most convenient route
for sending Russian achievements and
supplies into Rumania.
Nut-Craekers Attack
This accomplished. there began the pro-
cess of crushing Rumania In the nut
cracker fashion made familiar by the
Germans in this war. First the Ruma-
mans were pushed back to their frontier
on the north.
