sary to Build UP Output to Point
Where It Will Meet Demands
Of the Nation.

Uncle Sans own forests contain
enough pulp wood to supply the nae,
ton with paper for all time, if it is,
properly conserved, declared Secretary
of Agriculture Houston in statement
concerning the print paper situation,
which he declared had constituted one
of the most serious Of the country's
domestic problems during the past
year.
The statement shows that, although
newspapers have suffered severely and
small publishers of books have been
brought to the verge of ruin, the stu
alton is by no means hopeless. Prop
erly handled, the paper pulp supply
may be made adequate for all time.
At present there is almost an equal
balance between the supply and the
demand. The report shows use of
5000 tons of ncwsprint daily in 1914
and present use of 5000 tons. Jews
print alone requires annually about
100000 cords of pulp wood; all 9th
er purposes an additional 100000
cords.
One-third of our supply is derived
from Canada. This is a dangerous
condition, the secretary asserts, and
one Which should be rcmedled at once,
as changes in Canadian policy might
mt any time cut off our newspapers
from this source of supply or make it
available at excessive cost"
We need not be dependent upon Cam
ada, he declares, since "Our own for
est resources are ample to meet all
the paper requirements of the coun-
try" The publicly owned national for
csts alone "contain enough pulp wood
TO supply the entire paper needs of
the United States for the next eighty
years." This, "cut intelligently, con
stitutes virtually an incxhaustlble sup
ply for all time"

on farms in the United States this
year, according to a special census ta-
ken by Uncle Sam.
To secure this data the Office Of.
farm management in cooperation with
the bureau of crop estimates of the
department of agriculture, addressed
inquiries to $4,000 selected correspond
ents. They were asked to report all
tractors which were to be actually
used in farm operations this season..
Steam-drlven tractors, tractors pur-
chased but not delivered, tractors out
of commission or not to be used this
season, and tractors employed for rOnd
or work other than farming were to be
excluded.
The figures given indicate the num-
Der of tractors the actual ownership of

intention to use which during the sea-
son, implied. Mere estimates as to
the probable number of tractors in
any county were dlsregarded. The fig
ures, therefore, are not an actual
count Of all tractors, but indicate the
relative employment of tractors in
farming in the different sections.

The pulp wood supply mi The ma
tiohal forests is estimated by the fed
crat forest service at over 600,0O0.~
600 cords. There are also large sup
plies Of pulp wood in privately owned
western lands.
Since much capital is tied mp in East
crn plants. considerable portion Of
the Western pulp is not available foE
Eastern use Nevertheless, n huge
supply in the section west of the Cas-
cade mountains on the Pacific coast is
close enough TO tidewateT to enable IL
to be shipped cheaply. and this, to-
gether with the supply afforded by
Alaskan national fOrests-estimated at
70,000000000 feet of spruce and hem
Locks readily available to the East
ern and Central states. The report as
serts that the Alaskan wealth in pa
per woods will be found ultimately
to exceed in value all of Alaska's enor-
nous resources in coal, minerals or
fisheries.
Another valuable timber belt extends
Through the northern Rocky noun
tains from the Canadian line into Colo
RADIO and Utah" This, shut off from
water transportation, is not practical
as a source of supply for the East, but
is a logical stOrehouse of raw mate
rails for the paper requirements of the
Mississippi valley, it is declared.
Tests have shown that there are sew
eral new woods suitable to paper
making. These include Englemann
spruce, lodge pole pine, white fir and
line other cheap and abundant confer
Dus woods of the Western states, the
'eport states.
New Mills Proposed.
That these immense natural re-
sources may be readily available, the
report recommends increased sales of
raw materials to manufacturers and
the erection of mills in Alaska, the
Puget Sound country or the Rocky
mountain region, "under agreements
with the government for a long-term
supply of raw material, guaranteed I'M
der an equitable adjustment Of prices
from time to time"
Expert estimates show the practi
cablity of manufacturing newsprint
in Alaska and delivering in New York,
through the Panama canal, at cost
of not more than $50 per ton, as
against recent prices of over $50 per
ton.
The waste in the manufacture of
government might itself erect mills
in the West, especially to supply pa
per for government needs, and, If pri
waite enterprise fails, to build up the
paper supply TO point adequate with
the nations requirements, sit may
we'll he that the federal government
should enter the industry as direct
method of controlling the situation"
The waste in the manufacture of
lumber estimated at over 6000OOO0
cords annually, contains at least 40
100000 cords of coniferous woods
adapted to papermaking, and much of
this can be utilized.
But the ultimate solution of the
problem is the practice of forestry to
keep up continuous production of
pulp wood" the report concludes. This
is easier than might appear and it is
recommended that we follow the exam

producer in the world. i'm intelligent

BLOCKED BY HIGHER PRICES.
Contractors for Road Improvements
in Virginia Cancel Agreements.

Special Dispat ch to The Star.
LYNCHBURG, Va, February 3.-Pa-
irons of the movement in Brookville
district, Campbell county. for a 100000
bond issue voted for road improve
ments last year are not a little dis
turbed over the fact that some of the
contractors for the work have asked
for a return of the checks submitted
with their bids and have practically re-
linquished their contracts. Nearly all
the contracts are yet to be signed. The
work was contracted for months ago,
but was held up early in the summer
because of litigation over the manner
in which the bonds were issued. This
was decided in favor of the district
and since that prices have advanced
so that contractors do not care to take
the work at bids submitted six months
or more ago.
The roads proposed to be improved
are those leading through Brookvil!e
district into the city, and all of the
main thoroughfares were to have been
covered with permanent, water-bound
