LUMBER INDUSTRY ASLEEP.
Forester Says Substitute Materials Are
Injurng the Business.

Kansas City, Nov. B. Greeley, as
sistant government forester, spoke of
the lumber business as IAN industry
asleep" In talk he made to the South
western Lumbermen's association at
the Hotel Muehlebach. He said the
trade had permitted other building ma
terials to be substituted for wood with
out making any effort to find new uses
for its products. according to the Kan
sas City Star.
"All social movements" he said, "af-
feet the lumber business one way or
another. The safety first movement
has caused demand for steel cars, fire
proof buildings and n revision of the
building codes in almost all cities to the
detriment of the lumber business.
"The industry in a sense has been
asleep. Substitute materials for lumber
have been popularized by the manufac-
turers. Cement and steel have dis
placed wood, and the manufacturers of
those articles have been delving con-
stantly to find new uses for them. The
lumber industry has made no effort to
keep itself in the field by finding new
uses for its products"

neighbor and last winter stuck a nail
in It's hoof, sustaining injuries promis

animal and sent for a veterinary, who
amputated the calf's leg. Later a
wooden leg was substituted, and the
calf is now only little slower than

Tom Tracy, the one man put on trial

stirring up trouble and doing what they
can to hamper production and prevent
the harvest OF crops. If Governor Lis

legislature fixing penalties for sabotage,
syndicalism and terrorism, the state au-
thorities would now have the means OF
dealing with the I. w. w. But Lister
vetoed that bill, so there is now no
state law against what the /. w. w.

is possible the federal authorities will
find reason for action. Unless there is
federal intervention the situation will
grow more serious.

Mentone, Cal. - Hunger has driven
mountain lions and wildcats closer to
the settlements than in many years, say
old timers. One night recently two big
lions made their appearance at the Edi
son power house at the mouth of Mill
Creek canyon ard killed two burros
kept in a corral there.
One burro was killed outright by the
lions. The other burro fought and at
tracted the men at the plant, but 1t
was so badly torn by teeth and claws
Of the lions that 1t had to be shot.
The tracks showed the mountain
lions to be of great size, and the men
kept a close watch in the hope that
hunger would drive them out again.
