War Needs Call
For Two Billion
Feet Of Lumber
Trees Needed to Furnish This
Amount Would Cover Half
of Rhode Island

The average lumberman, when he
reads that the governments lumber re-
quirements for use in connection with
the war are more than 100000, 900
feet, is likely to whistle and say, Gee,
that's a lot Of lumber" Unless he
stops to give it considerable thought,
however, it ia very doubtful whether
the enormous magnitude Of the govern
ment'5 requirements make any appre-
ciable impression upon him.
Two billion feet Of lumber doesn't
sound like nearly as much lumber az
it is. It is hard 70 grasp big figures,
even when we consider that this Is as
much lumber as could be stacked on
1000 yards. each having d stacking
capacity OF 100000 feet.
The trees necessary 20 furnish this
much lumber, computed on the basis
Of the average stand OF timber. would
cover half az much ground as does the
State of Rhode Island.
Two billion feet Of lumber cut into
boards three-fourths of an inch thick
would build a plank walk two feet wide
from the earth to the moon.
II cut into inch boards, laid end to
end, they would reach around the world
eight times.
II all this lumber we're stacked to-
gether in stacks 10 feet high It would
require a yard Of something over 1000
acres.
Manufactured into half-inch flooring.
IL would floor a platform big enough
to cover the City of New Orleans.
Cut into two-inch plank, 1t would be
enough to provide every street in
greater New York with = nice hardwood
floor, such as Broadway has enjoyed for
the last two or three years.
4 lumberman is apt to think OF
sawmill cutting 1000 feet a day as
a pretty good sized mill. II would take
such a mill. working six days a week,
a little more than siyty-four years 20
cut this much lumber.
Figures are dry things, however, and
we will refrain from carrying the mat
ter any further We will leave il 20
the reader 20 figure out for himself
how many toothpicks or matches could
be made from this lumber, and how
many three-ring circuses could be sup
piled with the sawdust accruing from
its manufacture. 4 little consideration
Of such figures in comparison with
figures with which We are familiar
would furnish sufficient evidence that
1000. 900. 900 feet Of lumber is a whole
lot Of lumber-and then souie.-The
Southern Lumberman.

Industrial
Cotton

While there were rather wide and ir-
regular fluctuations in the cotton mar
ket yesterday. midday losses we're fol-
lowed by sharp advances in the late
trading and the close showed a net adj
vance of 90 70 30 points. October con-
tracts were relatively firm, selling up
from 25.O5 TO 26.l5 and closing at
26O7.
The market opened at an advance of
II to % points and sold about II TO 39
points net higher right after the call.
Sellers of Wednesday afternoon were
evidently disappointed by the showing
of the weather map. II had been ex-
pected 70 indicate showers in the South
west, possibly rains, or at least pros
poets for a break in the drought. In
stead no rain was reported in that sec
ton, while it seemed that overnight
changes in barometric conditions had
lesened its probability. There were
also further rains in the eastern belt
territory, where there have been some
complaints of excessive moisture, and
the early buying was encouraged by
frmness in Liverpool. The more ur-
gent demand from shorts was soon
supplied, and the market broke pretty
sharply during the middle Of the day
on a renewal of local pressure. Re
ports Of freer new crop offerings and
Of slightly easier basis in the South
west were current on the decline which
carried January Off from 1888 TO 25.43.
This selling was checked by the lar
ger exports and the market frmed up
again late in the afternoon with near
months relatively strong. Closing
prices were a few points off from the
best under realizing.

Railroad Accused
Of Depicting Stock
Charged With Selling Coal
Cars While Asking Money
to Buy New Ones

COLUMBUS, Ohio. Aug. 9.-Attorney
General McGhee and the State Public
Utilities Commission to-day we're in
vestigating reports that the Toledo &
Ohio Central and Hooking Valley rail-
roads have sold coal cars to the Cana
dian government. 1t was said that
John Kay, Of New Brunswick, agent for
the Canadian government, has adj
mitted that he has purchased 100
coal cars from railroads in Ohio.
Attorney General McGhee said the
state is ready TO take drastic action
to prevent another car owned by an
Ohio railroad from being sold for use
In another state or country. Inasmuch
as the railroads have asked authority
TO increase freight rates TO get money
to buy rolling stock, the discovery that
they have boen selling cars to another
government has amazed state officials.
Attorney General McGhee said he has
learned from II. E. Speaks, general
superintendent OF the Toledo & Ohio
Central Railroad, that this company
recently sold $50 cars 10 the Canadian
government.
NJ. S. Connors, general manager Of
the Hooking Valley, denied that his
company has sold any cars recently,
and stated that the last sale of cars
made by his company was four years
ago.
Governor Cox issued the following
statement to-day:
can inquiry is under way concern
ing a report that some railroads in the
state have been selling their rolling
stock 70 Canadian sportation con-
Germs.
ar this is true, It is a most radi-
cal violation OF the cooperation pro-
fessed by the railroads at the outset
of the war. | am unwilling 70 believe
IL. The state will enter upon the In
quiry open-mindedly, but the public
will be fully advised of the result Of
the investigation

War Bread "a Centuries Ole
Verse in Ezekiel Gives Recipe
to Children of Israel

A thirteenth century commentator
David Kimchi. drew attention TO the
verse in Ezekiel which says: Take
thou also unto thee wheat, and barley

ftches, and put them into one vessel
and make thee bread thereof" ."The

japanese Claims
Discovery of the
Germ of Typhus
Demonstrates Presence Of
Bacteria in Human Be-
ings and Monkeys
From TIE Tribune Bureau

WASHINGTON. Aug. 6. Professor
Keno Futaki, a Japanese scientist,
after three years research work in the
imperial Japanese government labora-
tory, claims 70 have discovered the
specific cause of typhus fever, accord
ing to advices from Toxic received
here to-day. He calls the newly iso-
lated germ the spirochoete exsnthe-
matotyphis.
The report says that in the cases Of
several patients who died from typhus
DR.. Futaki demonstrated the presence
OF the spirochoete in the kidneys OF
seven of the bodies. It continues:
"The eighth patient died in twenty
days after contracting the disease.
which probably accounts fer the alb
sence Of the bacteria in that particular
post-mortem.
Professor Futaki infected many
monkeys and guinea pigs with the
spirochoete taken from the patients.
and in the monkeys infected with the
germ he discovered the identical spiro-
choete. The Japanese medical profes
sion was informed Of his discovery, and
after thorough investigation accepted
its accuracy.
Last week. in St. Luke's Hospital
Toxic. Professor Futaki demonstrated
70 the staff Of the hospital the presence
of spirochoete e1anthematotyphis n
sections of kidneys taken both from
human subjects and from monkeys deac
from the disease. The discovery o.
the cause OF typhus fever az this time
is especially interesting, as owing to
the war there has been a great increase
of the disease both in Europe and n
the Slav countries. There have beer
severe epidemics in the trenches on the
French front as well as on the Eastern
front, especially IN Rumania, where the
disease has done devastating wors
among both the army and the civil
population.
Recently the Rumanian government
asked the japanese government 20 senc
a hundred japanese doctors 70 Ru-
mania 70 assist them In combating the
disease and instituting sanitary meas.
ures 70 control the epidemic.
"Typhus fever is an infectious dis
ease. and IL has been known as hos
pital fever iail fever camp fever,
ship fever and BY other similar names
Il has been one Of the greatest cpl
denies of the world, and II has almos
always accompanied war and famine
Its gradual disappearance has been
great triumph of modern sanitation.
and its recent recurrence in the wa
zone is a mute tribute TO the insanitar,
conditions and the suffering CT TIL
armies at the front. II H. a diseas'
