INCREASING DEMAND
FOR TIMBER OF ELM
Total Stand Placed at Approx.
mateIy 71z Billion Feet
Wood Re Desirable Where Strength,
Bending Quality and Ability to
Withstand Shock Are Con-
cerned-Takes Good Polish.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture.)
Elm timber growing in the farm
wood lot is valuable asset.
The demand for elm is increasing,
while the supply is rapidly diminish
. ing. 1t is estimated that the total
stand of elm in the United States is
approximately ~ billion feet. This
amount would furnish a supply for
approximately 80 years at the present
rate of cutting, as the annual output
of elm lumber is about 24,OOO,OOO
board feet, placing elm twelfth in rank
among all woods and tenth among
hardwOods in point Of lumber pr0duc-
ton.
Elm wood is desirable where
strength, bending quality and ability
to Withstand shocks are required. 1t
is, in general, heavy, hard and strong.
The most important use to which it is
put, according to the bulletin, is in
the cooperage industry, the amount
credited to this use being more than
twice that of the next in Importance,
which is in the manufacture Of bas-
kets and crates. It is estimated that
147,OOO,OOO board feet are used annu-
ally in making cooperage stock or bar
rels.
Elm is used extensively in making
agricultural implements and vehicles
also. 1t is useful in the manufacture
of wheels and bodies for automobiles,
and the rapid growth Of this industry
has brought about considerable in
crease in the demand for elm. Its abil-
ity to take a good polish makes it de-
sirable in the manufacture Of certain
pieces of furniture, cabinet work and
interior trimmings. It is fairly dura-
BILE wood, the average untreated lum'
her in situations exposed to weather
lasting six to eight years. When prop
erly treated with creosOte this period
may be heightened to 20 or more years.

RUSSIAN THISTLE OF VALUE
Once Considered Noxious Weed-Now
Used for Wintering Stock in
New Mexico.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.)
The Russian thistle, considered one
of the most noxious weeds in New
Mexico, is now declared by many
stockmen in that section to be Of value
as stock feed. Some farmers in
Santa Fe county already have put up
large stacks of from five to fifty tons
to be used for wintering stock this sea-
son. Its value as a feed was discOv'
cred during the last two years OF
drought when it was the only thing
which stood between the live stock Of
the region and starvation. The coun-
ty agricultural agent of Santa Fe
county is urging the building of silos
to be filled with Russian thistles,

more rapidly than other farm animals
and make greater gains per hundred
pounds of concentrated feed con-
sumed.
AS a consumer of by-products the
hog has no rival.
Hogs might be kept prOfitably upon
a number of farms where they are not
found today. As a general PROPOSE
ton, it is safer for the average farm
er to handle q small number of hogs

ness.
Z AS much. feed as possible for hogs
should be raised on the farm; no more
feed than is absolutely necessary
should be purchased.
Hogs weighing from 200 to 800
pounds are in greatest demand on the
market, and usually the greatest prof
it is obtained from selling hogs at
these weights. The price realized de-
ponds upon the kind Of carcass the

Those who wake up with bad breath,
