NJ DECLINE: FUR FURNITURE PRICE

Mir Arthur Guy, sales manager, and MT. W. E.. Doris, furniture buyer. of the Doris Heyman Furniture Co., have just returned from a trip to Chicago, Grand Rapids and eastern furniture markets. This trip was undertaken for the purpose of speeding up delivery 3u goods bought some time back, de- ilveries on which have been consid- erably delayed; also for the purpose of buying for immediate and later de- livery.
 MT. Guy reports that there seems no possibility of an early decline in prices on furniture and house furnishing lineSe Many of the leading makers re- ported they are from six months to a year behind on deliveries. The demand for furniture is still greatly in excess of production. One of the principal reasons seems to be that high wages have caused skilled workers to put in only part time. In Chicago alone, something like 25,000 skilled workers are contented to work only three days a week, spending their leisure time at the movies, which are running night and day.

ARIZONA GRAPEFRUIT
 CREATES FAVORABLE
 MARKETS OIN COAST

By reason of it's excellent quality, clean, appearance and uniform pack Arizona grapefruit is creating a mar ket for itself in California. according to Chairman Andrew kimban of the state commission of agriculture and horticulture, who has just returned by way of San Francisco from the second annual convention of the western plant quarantine board at Salt Lake City. Leading commission merchants of San Francisco spoke in emphatic terms of the high quality Of Arizona grapefruit and the demand for 1t which is in creasing daily in the markets of their city. The California quarantine off cers are much pleased with this de- VelOpment. as it lessens the demand for the importation of Florida grape fruit, which demand, the quarantine officers state, cannot be satisfied be- cause of the danger of the introduc- ton of destructive insect pests and diseases, not now present in the Cali fOrnia groves.
 Florida grapefruit is frequently smutty and unclean in it's appearance, and often laden with plant disease and insect pests, which render it not only undesirable, but totally unsafe to be allowed to come into California, ac- cording to the quarantine officers Florida is just emerging from the ter Tible menace of citrus canker, which has cost the state thousands of dollars to combat. Five million dollars is the official estimate placed upon the value of the trees and nursery stock which have been destroyed in an effort to eradicate this one disease alone Ac- cording to the official records ending August 31. 1919, 234,998 trees and g. 613,000 nursery trees have been de stroyed.
 California and Arizona have many agricultural crops in common anC many similar ouarantines directed against a common enemy. For ex- ample California's quarantine order No. 2S has been amended to read as follows:

LIVED MANY CENTURIES AGO
Skeleton Of Giant wombat, Recently
Found In Tasmania, Believed to
Be 10000 Years Old.

A complete skeleton recently discov-
cred in the Mowbray marsh. On the far
outskirts Of the wild marshy regions
Of Northwest Tasmania confirms the
existence 10000 or 10000 years ago of
4 giant wombat Zone of the pouched
animals peculiar to the Antipodes).
The discovery was made by Mr..
Lovett, farmer. who was digging q
drain into the swamp.
The skeleton lay buried in six feet
Of decayed vegetable matter resting on
sand that was once the bed Of a lake.
Mr.. Scott Of the Launceston museum.
examined and excavated the skeleton
and expressed the opinion that the
animal had lived perhaps more than
10000 years ago. says the London
Daily Mail. It Is the only specimen
yet discovered. In life the animal
would be bigger than a mule, with
four elephantine legs and head very
much like bulldog. Experts believe
1t to be a smaller species of gigantic
marsupiai approaching in size the
Brontosaurus (which weighed 80 to 90
tons). 1t has long, bearlike tusks. and
probably lived on herbs and was slow
Of movement.
The present-day wombat is a bur.
rowing animal from two to three feet
long. with a short, thick body. short
legs and very little tail.
