Lightning c'od Points.

Farmers Bulletin S42 from the Ohio experiment station gives the following advice for the installation of lightning rods.
 Conductors should be installed in as straight runs as possible. Where bends are necessary, use curves of at least one foot ra- dius.
 Rods are best secured to the building by the single piece screw fasteners.
 Aerials should be spaced along the rods.

OUR VIRGIN TIMBER
IS FAST DISAPPEARING

New Orleans, La.-Our Louisiana
virgin timber is being rapidly depleted.
Each year sees more lumber and wood
using industries cutting out and aban
doning their operations, causing q
slack in business and the drifting Of
labor and population, thus leaving the
few that remain to pay the price that
,desolatlon creates. It is OF vital i'm
portance that we utilize every stick
OF timber If the state of Louisiana
wants to retain Its prestige as the sec,
ond largest numbering state.
Protective steps must also be given
to Che young timber. The greatest
enemy OF reforestation is fire. Care
with fire is little thing which every
man can help. Louisianians must
realize that fire will ruin the indus.
trial prosperity Of their state by des
troying the timber and also the range
for stock. How many stop to think
of the damage a little match, ciga,
rette stub, or camp fire may do?
Mr.. Hunter, Mr.. Smoker, Mr.. Farm
or and Mr.. Camper, please remember
that your carelessness may dig at the
Industrial heart Of our State. Each
year of fire brings its toll OF black
charred ruins and barren lands. Make
this year an exception. Be careful
with fire.

SPLIT POSTS And
ROUND POSTS

Madison, Wis.-Is split fence post
As durable as round fence post? This
is a question frequently asked OF the
q. s. Forest Products Laboratory. The
fact is, one kind of post will last about
as long as the other If the amount OF
heartwood Is the same In both. But
II the percentage Of sapwood Is in
creased by splitting, the split post will
be less durable, and II the percentage
Of heartwood Is increased, 1t will be
more durable than a round one. Posts
Of spruce, hemlock or any Of the true
frs are exception to this rule, because
their heartwood and sapwood are
about equally durable.
When posts are to be treated with
creosote or other preseryative, round
post Is preferable to split post, be-
cause OF the comparative ease with
which the sapwood can be treated.
The heart faces on split posts do not.
as a rule, absorb preservative we'll.
Split red-oak posts will take treatment
because the wood Is very porous, but
the heart faces Of split posts Of many
other species, notably white oak, red
gum and Douglas fir, resist the peno-
tration of preservative, even undae

Small Merchants Flock Here
for Seasonal Purchases;
Cautious Spirit Prevails;
Some Place Future Orders

The number of retailers from all
parts of the country who are visiting
the local wholesale markets on
initial fall buying trips is much
larger this week than it has been for
the last month. Although many lines
of merchandise for the fall season
have been on the market for three or
four weeks. this week marked the be-
ginning of main buying interest in
most commodities.
J Although the season has NOT nd.
vanced sufficiently to give an accurate
KEY TO the buying trend that NAV be
+ expected, there is little evidence so far
that the retailers have shaken off eau
! ZION IN operating for the future. How
ever, from all reports, there is slightly
less conservatism in ordering than
there was for the spring and summer
season, and in many cases retailers are
placing orders for delivery further into
/ the future than at any time in the last
ten or twelve months. The bulk of the
demand evidenced by the visiting buy
eers, however, is conferred on goods for
immediate delivery.
Several thousand retailers have been
attracted to the city by the shoe style
| DSih5 oIdScu LnlS week at the
Hotel Commodore by the associated
Brooklyn manufacturers. Yesterday
the sample rooms taken by the manu-
facturers in the hotel were filled with
visiting buyers, many of whom were
said to be placing fair orders, but
mostly for delivery within the next
month or ut most six weeks in ad
vance.
Spot demand for cotton goods, par
tlcularly ginghams, percaes, branded
bleached goods and bedding, and some
OF the heavier colored cottons is slight
y stronger than it was last week, ac-
cording to selling agents here. More
activity is noted in the silk trade.
Buying of wooden goods for fall has
been completed in most cases and in
terest in the offerings of spring goods
to be made late this month or early in
August are engaging the attention of
the cloth trade
One of the features of the augm ented
activity, particularly in the apparel
markets, is the increased number of
smaller retailers who are now doing
some purchasing. For some time the
larger stores have been operating on
fall merchandise to a limited extent.
but the present week saw small retail
ers actively interested in forward sea-
son merchandise for the first time
since the selling season opened.

ances eligible for purchase by Federal
China Buying Cottons Here

The continued demand for American
cotton goods, particularly branded mar
row shectings and similar merchandise,
from the Far East is strengthening
some divisions of the cotton goods mar
ket. Several important deals with
large Chinese houses have been con-
summated this week, according to SELL
ing agents here. The volume of this
business is small in comparison with
pre-war years, it is stated, but the fact
that it is tending to increase is taken
as favorable sign. For some of the
leading brands that have been long
established in China premium of an
eighth or quarter cent is being paid
by Chinese importers
