TIMBER FROM DEAD TREES
GOOD AS THAT FROM LIVE

The prejudice held by certain build
ers against the use of lumber from
fire or insect-killed trees has been
proved groundless by recent expert
ments Of the Forrest Products Lab
oratory Here it has been found that
lumber cut from sound dead trees is
in no way distinguishable from any
other. except that it may be partly
seasoned If the wood has not been
injured subsequently by decay or
further insect attack, this dead"
lumber is the equal of live" of the
same grade for all structural purposes.

OTTAWA FANS
OFFER SITE FOR
BIG TITLE SCRAP

New York, Dec. 2-An offer of a
site for staging the Dempsey-Car-
pentier heavyweight championship
fight in Canada was received today
by promoter Tex Richard.
The proposition, from syndicate
of wealthy Ottawa sportsmen sug-
gested holding the contest in June
at Hull. just across the river from
Ottawa. 1t was stated that $25O.OOO
was available as a guarantee and
Rickard was requested to meet and
discuss the matter with a represen-
tative of the Canadian syndicate.
Richard said that he would ar
range for a conference in the near
future but that no definite plans had
been made for staging the interna-
tional titular battle at any particular
place. 1t again was intimated today
by the chief promoter that in case
it was found inadvisable to hold the
contest in or near New York City,
the match would in all probability be
staged in London. where Carpenter
is a popular pugilistic idol.
Should the emergency arise it is
quite likely that instead of Dempsey
receiving 100000 and Carpenter
100000, the boxers will agree to
battle for a percentage of the gate
receipts which are estimated as like
ly to run into hundreds of thousands
of dollars with the fight staged in
London.
