BOOK PAPER FROM SOUTHERN
 PINE AND RED GUM

The possibility of using southern pine and red gum for the production of nigh grade book and magazine papos has been 3oa.o.,stratea Ill le- cent trials at the U. ;. Forest Pro- ducts Laboratory, Madison, Wis. Book paper requires for it's manu. facture two kinds of woods--a long fibered wood, such as spruce, to im- part strength, and some short fiber ed hardwood to give the formation, finish, opacity, and other printing qualities. The southern pines are long fibered woods, excellently suited for the manufacture of wrapping paper and fiber board, but their pitch content and the difficulty of bleaching them have heretofore been obstacles in the way of their use for white paper. These obstacles, 1t has been shown, can be ovrcome in large measure by proper cooking conditions and improved bleaching methods. Red gum is typical of many southern hardwoods that might be used with pines in the manufacture of the better grades of printing pa- per.
 The laboratory experiments indi- cate that one cord each of loblolly pine and red gum are capable of yielding one ton of paper, at cost which should allow a god profit un- der prevailing conditions.
 The utilization of the southern pines for book paper would spread the burden of the pulpwood over con- siderable territory which is favored with a large annual growth of tin1- Der. In fact, although the bulk of the standing timber of the United States is in the Far West, the bulk of the annual growth is now in the South. Pines and hardwoods are dis tributed throughout the southern states in proportions well suited for the manufacture of book paper, and the forests are near the centers or paper consumption as well as the supplies of coal, chemicals, and other necessary raw materials.
 Additional information and sam ples of the paper made in the trlai runs of pine and red gum may be ob- tained from the Forest Products Lab- oratory on request.

Baby Ostrich Scrappy.

Vancouver, Canada.-Jonathan, the first ostrich chick matched in Canada, is progressing under the care of Zoo Manager F. Green in Stanley park. It was at first believed that the rare and valuable bird would not live, and 1t was taken from it's parents and placed in the Green home. Appear ance of weakness proved deceptive, for Jonathan quickly whipped the house cat and won decision over the family spaniel.

 FAITH 0F HAITI
Admiral Knapp, Investigating Conditions, Tells Shocking
 Tales of Practices.
KILL HUMANS, DRINK BLOOD
Native is Strongly Superstltious, Fears Evil Eye and Stands Tn Great Awe of Voodoo Priests
 and priestesses.

Washington, D. C.--That 95 per cent of the natives of Haiti believe in the African jungle faith of yoOdooism which requires the sacrifice of human beings and the drinking of human blood Is declared by Rear Admiral Fl. s. Knapp in his report to the secre- tary of the navy on investigation of Haitian conditions.
 Admiral Knapp cites shocking case of the trial of yood0o priest. who is reported to have killed 13 chill dren, whose blood was drunk and flesh eaten by persons present at the rites.
 "VoodoOism Is prevalent" says the admirals report, land the further one goes from the coast into the interior the more openly is voodooism prac- ticed. Voodooism is essentially snake worship, and in it's extreme rites 1t requires the sacrifice of human beings and the drinking of their blood and the eating of their flesh.
 Orgies at Sacrifices.
 'The human sacrifice Is called the hornless goat;' minor sacrifices of goats are made. These religious cele- brations, if the word religious can be applied to such affairs, end in dis graceful orgies of debauchery. It is very difficult, of course, to determine just how extensively the beliefs are held, but some Haitians themselves have asserted that probably 95 per cent of the total population believes in voodOOism to a greater or less ex- tent.
 "Of course, the contrary is strongly held by apologlsts for the Haitian character. It seems certain, however that whether 1t be the effect of v0o- dooism or not, the average Haitian Is strongly superstitious-super with the superstitions of the jungle. He is afraid of the evil eye. or, as 1t is called here the 'ouanga,' and stands in great awe of the voodoo priests and priestesses. It Is also believed the educated classes are not free from much of this superstition, even where they deny belief in or the existence of VoodOoism.
 Voodoo Followers Feared.
 Haitian officials high fin place will not take action against persons ac- cused of vOodoOism, whether because of their own belief in 1t or because of fear born of their own knowledge of the extent to which voodooism is prev aient among the population or of in curing enmities. A voodoo priest has been lately tried and sentenced, and the proceedings of the military com mission are uoW in Washington await ing action.
 "Thls man Is said TO have killed. a one time CT another, 13 children whose blood was drunk and whose
 oo-2n be -erslas Yrozen- sE the rites. The practice of similar VOC doc rites is confidently believed by those most familiar with the situation in Haiti to be not unusual in the re mote places, although it is very diffi- cult to obtain any positive evidence in cOrr0boration."

OVER A MILLION MORE BALES ALREADY THAN THE TOTAL CROP OF 1919
