CANADIAN NEWSPRINT
OUTLOOK FAVORABLE

A special bulletin has been issued
by the Canadian Pulp and Paper As.
ISOLATION on the newsprint outlook.
The bulletin shows that during July
there were exported to the United
States 1882 tons more than In June.
United States imports from Europe,
according to the bulletin. amounted to
ASS tons. II says:
1.-THE situation as to the American
market for Canadian newsprint n
still very favorale and likely to i'm.
prove from now on. There are in.
dications, such as q resumption Of
advertising to move fall goods, an
increase in newsprint circulation due
TO reduction In selling price, and the
starting UP Of new publications,
which encourage the belief that from
now on the demand for newsprint
will gradually increase.
Recent reduction in contract price
for paper will also contribute to this
end. In Canada the Federal election
is expected to have q stimulating ef-
feet on the newsprint market"

Years

Columbus. Ohio. June 3.-The oil
supply Of the United states will be ex
hausted in 1G years. if present rates
Of production are kept ul, and no new
producing territory is discovered, it
is asserted by Professor John a.
Bownocker, state geolosist and pro-
fessor Of geology at Ohio State Uni
versity.
According to Professor Bownockei,
the United States has petroleum re-
serves amounting to six or seven bill
lion barrels. The rate of production
in 1920 was 40 million barrels a
year. However, this is thought 10 be
the highest mark production VIII
reach, Bownocker, said geologists be-
lieve. The production rate is expect
ed to decline this year.
Thus, Professor Bownocker points
out, this country actually can produce
oil for longer than 16 years, but at a
constantly decreasing rate each year.

$4,000 DEAL IN
MASONIC DISTRICT

1t has been reported for some time
that deal was pending by which tht
S. L. Perrin property in the camp o.
Masonic was to change hands. How
ever it was not till July 9th that the
deal was finally closed and the own
ership of the seven mining claims
passed into the hands of Santa Bar
bara capitalists. The price paid fo-
these claims is in the neighborhood OF
$4,000.
These claims adjoin the famou,
Cereta mine, owned by Stahl Brothers
which produced some $750,0OO worth
OF high-grade.
Mr. Perrin has been prospecting
his ground very Thoroughly for some
time and has opened up a ledge which
car. be traced for several hundred feet
on the surface Values ranging from
$40 and SIS to $500 have beet
received. The new owners intend to
start immediate operations to open
up the property and it may be safely
predicted that they will soon have a
paving mine, for the claims are SUI
rounded by property that has produc-
ed many hundreds of thousands OF
dollars but for unknown reasons have
been closed down for years
This is the second deal tc lie made
in the camp of Masonic i'll the last
month and in all probability is the
forerunner of the predicted influx of
capital to western mining camps, OF
which the meritorious camp OF Ma
sonic will receive her share. The
other deal consummated on July 5th
saw the passing OF the ownership OF
the Success claims from the hands OF
c. c. and John IL. Hayes to Elmer
Green and associates of San Fran
cisco, S45,000 being the purchase price.
Masonic has produced better than
two millions Of dollars i'll years past
but the high cost OF transportation
has always been a drawback to the
camp However, it begins to look
now as though men Of such stable
character as the new parties will see
the benefit to be, derived and erect
efficient mills in the camp. 1t does
not necessarily follow that when their
Individual mine does not furnish a
sufficient quantity OF ore that they
need to close down. for great many
claims in the camp can furnish a
large tonnage OF from SIS to $40 ore.
This ore will not only keep force
working steadily bit will be the
means Of giving the poorer men in
the camp an opportunity to open TIP
and work their property with the pro-
ceeds received.
Keep your eye on Masonic for it IS
going to be one OF the best mining
camps in the west i'll the near future.
