'M0NTANAPULP
 SUITABLE FOR
 PAPER MAKING

NISSOULA, Mont, Jan. P (by As ssociated Press) )-Condition unusu- ally favorable for the location, in northern Montana, of a paper mill with an annual capacity of 1,300,0OO cords of pulp wood are described by R. P. Mclaughlin, supervisor of the Black feet national forest, in a report cover inginvestigations he has been con ducting for several years.
 The most likely location, Mr. Nc Laughlin says, in in a compact body of timber on the Flathead river, just west of Glacier National park. He says this stand would afford 2,500,G00 cords of pulp wood, easily accessible to government roads already built at a cost of $2OO,O00, and handy to nat ural waterways for cheap transoorta- tion to the mill Natural power sites may be found on or adjacent 70 Flat head lake, it is declared, and railway transportation is close by.
 The market for such a mill, the re- port states, would be found in th7 -n- termountain territory from the Cana dian border to the Gulf of Mexico. It is estimated that the annual paper con- sumption of this region is l40,OOO tons. Sufficient wood to run mill with this capacity is available in the Flathead territory for sixty years operation, or with rotation of cutting, it is de- clared, the yield will be found prac- tically inexhaustible.
 It is expected that bids for the pur- chase of government timber in this section, with a view to erection of 9 paper mill, will be asked by the for est service in the near future.

CANADIAN BEING BOUGHT
 AT TOP PRICES
FRINGE ALBERT, Sask., Jan

PRINCE ALBERT, Sask, Jan 22 (by Associated Press) ).-The bitterest competition for fur trade in the his tory of the Canadian Northwest is Araging this winter. Unprecedented prices for furs are said to have brought 10000 buyers to the Western provinces, and it is believed that hun dreds of fur agents have risked their lives to work their way to the wild Northern regions where competition is not so keen and where the trappers' prices are not so high.
 Trappers are reaping the golden harvest this year, it is claimed. Last year, according to some fur, men, the trappers received only small advances in prices for pelts, whereas the fur dealers made tremendous profits. This Y year, it is said, conditions are re- versed. Trappers are demanding from 200 to 300 per cent more for their furs than they did a year ago.
 Farmers in this region have been making considerable money hunting wolves. They have taught their dogs 0 ride in wagons or automobiles until wolves are sighted. The fresh dogs then invariably corner the wolves, which are shot. Coyote skins brought about $5 before the war This year the average price is $25. Musk rat belts sold for 25 cents few years ago. The price this year ranges from $2 to S3.
