But before we go farther let me tell you what wood pulp Is, and how it is made. It comes from the soft woods of the forest and there are a score or more trees which are furnishing our present supply. In Canada, for in- stance, there is a strip of spruce and poplar which runs across the greater part of the continent. It contains the chief wood pulp reserves of this hem isphere and it will be furnishing paper for many years to come Connected with it are some of the biggest pulp mills of the world. I visited the larg- est of them not long ago. It is mak- ing mechanical and chemical pulp for shipment to the United States. The wood used is spruce cut in the forests above Lake Superior, and brought down to the great water power at Sault 20 feet from LaKe Superior to edge of the water and great turbines furnish the powers The spruce is cut in the forests during the winter, and floated down the rivers to the lake and thence on to the Sault. There are great piles of this timber on the shore and in the water, and stacks of it not far from the mills. As I looked at it it seemed to me I could see the newspapers inside the log, and I was reminded of the duke in Shakespeare's play AS You Like It. who expected to find in the forest of Arden

tunnels, one inside the other, with spaces between. There is a hole for the wasp to pass from one gallery to another. The opening of this paper house is at the bot tom.
 The first wood plup made by man dated back to the beginning of the Christian era, at which time the Chinese made paper from the mulberry tree. They boiled the wood in I've until the fibers could be beaten into pulp with mallet. The Moors introduced wood pulp into Europe about 7o4 A. D., and they be- came the paper makers of Spain. About 300 years later the Crusaders brought 1900 linen was first used in Europe as a paper making material. The first pa- per mill in America was established near Philadelphia by William Rittenhouse in 1890, and in 1776, the year of the Deelara- tion of Independence, paper mill at Hartford was furnishing news print to the extent of 5000 papers per week. Twenty-three years later a mill twas built at Dalton, Mass, the same place where they are now making linen paper from rags for our bank notes and Liberty Bonds; and from that time oh our paper- making industry has so increaseds that we now produce 60 per cent of all the paper used upon earth. We began to make wood pulp about the time of the civil war, and today nearly 90 per cent of our paper contains more or less wood pulp, and 75 per cent is entirely from wood. The demand for all kinds of paper is increasing, and among the great op- portunities when peace comes will be

lions are billions of copies a year. We have in the United States a dozen cities the dailies Of each of which have sub scription list of more than q half mill lion copies daily. In New York the daily copies issued number also 4,009,0O0, and those of Philadelphia, Chicago and Bos- ton have each 2,60o,OG0 and upward. In 1914 the circulation of the Boston papers was 2,2s5,0q0 eopies per day, and that city led Philadelphia and Chicago in it's daily output of papers New York is now is- suing four daily papers for every family
 iii that city.
 Let Us stop a moment and think what the above figures mean. The New York Times has figured that it's average cir culation of 3590C0 would make strip of paper about 1880 miles long. Using that average as the unit of calculation the daily output of Boston would require newsprint enough to carpet a pathway the width of this page you are reading SSS0 miles long. The strip of paper would reach from Boston to Chicago, and on to San Francisco, and across the Pacific ocean to Shanghai, and up the Yangtse river to somewhere near Hanllow in China. Turn it the other way and it would go across the Atlantic ocean to where our troops are fighting in France, ana rom IAeFe 10 Beflln, ana on across Russia to somewhere in Siberia. If you could bore right through the earth from Boston to the other side of the globe this days output of newspapers would more than carpet the tunnel to where it came out on the other side, Somewhere in Siam or further India.
 But that is the paper output of only one city, and proport1onate demands are made day in and day out all the year through in all the cities of the United States, and for the 60,000 periodicals read by the world. The pa- Fer uses is newsprlnt and it is all made of wood pulp of one kind or another.
 Wood pulp is needed for our week lies and monthlies as well as the dai- lies. The former have circulation of 50,000,000 copies and the latter one of S0,000, 900 copies per issue. The books and pamphlets we print number about S7,000,000 a year, and in addition we are turning. out seven or eight million pieces of sheet and book music. Every bit of the paper so used comes from the forests. It requires men to get out the wood, and great mills to grind up the flores or by chemical action to turn them into paper like that or bet ter than that of this page you are The number of mills we have devoted to the business is more than roo, and in ordinary times they ern ploy S0,000 men. We make about half of all the wood pulp made in the world. The war and the influenza are reducing the number of workmen, and the price of the product continues to rise.

MaShlUSton, II. N-. E7N1HE whole world is in the throes
 of a paper famine Every con
 tinent is short of newsprint and
 the prices are reaching the skies. In Italy they have mounted to Sl50 a ton, and here in the United States the open market price of newsprint is double what 1t was at the outbreak of the war. It is SC high in Europe that England has cut down the size of it's newspapers and France has reduced it's pefiodicals one half. For two days of the week the French 'dailies do not use more than two pages each. Italy is also cutting on paper, and in Hungary the use of news print Is limited by law. Newspapers of the highest price may publish eight pages only. Those of the next grade are per nlitted four pages, while those of the low est price can publish only two pages per issue. There has been material reduc- ton in the size of our papers, and the government has put all newspaper sales and subscriptions upon a cash basis. No complimentary or gift copies can now be distributed, and the padding of circula- tions is not permitted. The government itself is using about five times as much paper as it consumes in peace times. Roughly speaking, it will take this year one pound out of every 100 pounds pro- duced in the United States and it is urging the people to save paper in every possible way.
 This famine is largely due to the war. It is impossible to ship paper from the United States and Canada to Europe, and. some of the big Canadian mills which formerly supplied the English periodicals are now sending their product to us. This is so of the mills in Newfoundland belonging to Lord Northcliffe, which were established by him to make newsprint for the London Times, Mail and others of his periodicals. He is not able to get the paper over the ocean, and he shipped 1S,000000 pounds into this country last year.
 Another cause of the famine is the in- creased consumption of newsprint all over the world. New papers are springtng up in every locality Japan is now printing almost as many periodicals as any west ern country of similar size. China has its dailies, and there has been a great growth of newspapers in alr parts of the far east. South America is using more and more paper. and it has now one or two journals whose circulations compare dailies. Australia has more papers in proportion to it's population than Eng land, and the number of periodicals in the United States is steadily increasing. Taking the whole world into account, there are now published something like 6o.000 periodicals, and their total eircula-
