OH, BOY! AMT 1T A GRAND
AND GLORIOUS FEELING?
No Castor Oil Now. Your Uncle Sam
Wants All of 1t.

Wants All of 1t.
Johnny may rejoice in the news
that castor oil is a luxury now. The
price is Is cents an ounce, two
ounces for quarter.
Before the war castor oil brought
$1.7O a gallon wholesale, and in the
neighborhood of $500 retail Now
the price has risen to $3.40 a gallon
wholesale. For household use the
government is buying up all the cas-
tor oil in the country for airplane
fabrication purposes, and the drug
store price is sky-rocketing as a re-
suit. Maybe we can't buy castor oil
at all in a short time.

KAISER SWEPT US.
OF BLACK WALNUT
His Agents Bought Up This
War Timber Years Ago
Replanting Urged.
Special Despatch TO THr srx.

ALBANY, Oct. 12.-Evidence in pos
session OF the United States Forestry
Service and Of George D. Pratt, state
Conservation Commissioner. discloses
that the Germans virtually denuded
America Of black walnut timber as far
back as twenty years ago as part Of
their great plan OF military prepared
ness to conquer the world. Shipload
after shipload OF black walnut trees
we're collected by German agents ard
transported TO Germany for military
purposes This forehandedness means
that American black walnut is now being
used against American troops German
shrewdness and forethought. combined
with American neglect, brought black
walnut to the point of determination.
That is the condition of this Inn
mensely valuable and useful tree
to-day. When the plants working
on Government orders discovered that
the country had been stripped almost
clean. and that there were no known
tracts OF black walnut left, President
Wilson called on Boy Scouts to seek
out individual trees that could he used
for airplane propellers and for gun
stocks. The Forest Service now reports
tnaI the Roy SCOUTS reported lftVoo,OhO
board feet or about 1867 carloads Of
black walnut. Much OF this timber has
been cut or will be cut for military uses.
The Forestry Service realizes that II
is essential to replant these trees at
once and TO make an effort Immediately
TO restore the black walnut forests of
America. DR.. William T. Hornaday.
who has made a special study OF the
situation. says that trees should he
planted in October or November and
that the process Is extremely simple and
easy, The walnuts should be planted in
good soil with the hulls intact, lying
sidewise. The depth should be about
four inches.
The black walnut Is beautiful tree.
which grows rapidly and produces nuts
in five years Future Governments DR..
Hornaday points out, will need the black
walnut lumber for alrplane propellcrs
and for gunstocks, because black wal
nut does not warp and IL does not
splinter when hit b. bullet OF shrRpnel.
Future furniture makers will require 1t
because OF its rich brown color and
easy working qualities Also the food
value of the nuts is not to be over
looked.
Conservation Commissioner Phillips of
Pennsylvania In a recent statement
says:
1--WE are gladly assisting the French
to rebuild their towns and plant trees
to replace those destroyed by the Hun
and think we should do a little work
for ourselves along the same lines, as
the Hun Is directly responsible for the
threatened disappearance of our walnut
trees"

WEST TEXAS REEVES
WITH HEAVY RAINS
Property Sho,Un in Ooersub-
scription to Loan.
Special DespatcA to Tns SUI.

FORT WORTH, Tex, oct l2.-The
drought In western Texas has been effec-
lively broken by continual heavy rains
in more than one hundred so-called
drought area counties. Scores of tenant
farmers and their families are now pass
ing through this city daily, returning to
their farms In the western section OF
the State, which were abandoned on ac-
count Of the drought early in the sum-
mer.
Recent rains are estimated TO be
worth $4,000, 900 to the agricultural
and livestock interests of western Texas.
Excellent winter ranges now are assured
and sufficient moisture Is In the ground
to insure the planting OF the largest
small grain acreage In the history OF
the state.
West Texas cattlemen have abandoned
the idea OF putting large herds 10 winter
pastures. Business generally has as
sumed the most optimistic aspect in re-
cent years and every county in western
Texas has oversubscribed its quota to
the Fourth Liberty Loan.

SHORTAGE IN STEEL
is 100000 TONS
September Production Heavi-
est Average on Record, But
Is Absorbed Quickly.

Shortage of steel has necessitated
further cu~tailment in supply for nm
ishing shops. Government requirements
for the most part call for rails. shell
steel and barbed wire for use In France.
and to meet this II has been found nee
essary TO reduce the output Of sheet
bars. Government estimates are with
out material alteration and a deficit OF
about 1000 900 tons has yet 10 be met.
The untitled tonnage in the books II
the United States Steel Corporation at
tho end OF September amounted to e.
2e7,s05 tons, as against s.759,0i3 on
July 81. decrease Of S6l,13S tons.
September output of pig iron was 81
41S,G70 tons. as compared with 1885,
5s5 In August. The daily rate OF pro-
duction, 1899 gross tons, was the
heaviest average on record, the nearest
to this being 1889 tons in October
1915.
While production has been as salts
been absorbed as quickly as produced
and the supply is still so short as to
require exceptional care In making al
lotments. No new business worth men
tioning is reported and all iron dis
tributed has been on Government ac-
count Prospects for heavy outturn
during October are excellent.
The price OF copper to be effective
after October 81 will be determined In
Washington on or about october 10.
II is generally believed that the present
price of 2s cents win he continued. The
supply OF refined copper Is no more than
sufficient TO meet var requirements.
Lead continues scarce at the estab-
lished price Speltcr Is quiet and easy.
The Government is In practical control
OF tin, and all importers and dealers
will require to be licensed. The new
regulations as to price and distribution
are not yet known, Meanwhile the mar.
ket Is neglected with light offerings, but
no buyers. The spot price ranges be-
tween 50 and SO cents.
