being to timber just ais surely as did
the old oaken bucket of bygone days,
and the hickory stick which dispensed
discipline in the ancient village school

and alcohol have been and are being
made from wood and wood waste Over
ninety per cent Of the paper produced
comes from wood, and everyone knows
that without paper science, art, in
dustry, aud big business would be
paralyzed, for we use paper for almost
every conceivable purpose. from the
decoration of our walls to engraving
gilt-edge securities. Products made
from paper range all the way from
soda water straws and cups to packing
boxes, trsnks and car wheels So
stupendous has the paper industry be-
come that il consumes annually 6,000,-
900 cords Of wood
So great is the drain upon our Tim
Der resources that every year precau-
tons are being taken to guard our
forests against devasting fires and the
inroads of the thoughtless lumber man.
Not only is this being done, but thel
government experts at the Forest
Products laboratory are teaching the
how to eliminate needless I
waste and use their material TO the |
very best advantage Built-up con-
struction furnishes an example of how /

consists in fastening together several /
smaller pieces of wood and thus max
ing certain products which used to be
made from single piece of timber.
Not only does built-up construction at
'ord a means of saving immense guam
titles Of wood. which must otherwise be
brown away or burned, but the prod
Icts made in this manner are often
stronger and better suited for the pur-
pose thsn when made from single
pieces. Airplane propellers, bowling
,ins. shoe trees, hat blocks. and even
,asebal bats have been successfully
made in this manner.

WHY WOOD is IN DEMAND.
Although Much Construction Is in
Stone, Brick, Cement and Steel.


Those who want TO prove how the
world has progressed since grandfather
father or even we were boys often use
as illustration the supplantng Of wood
by metal. cement tile and brick. They
point convincingly TO the modern
dreadnought aud giant freighter, the
fireproof building and the up-to-date
steel railway car They scontrast the
latest model in automobiles, con
striicted almost entirely Of metal, with
the carriage Of twenty five years ago,
which was practically all wood except
the springs, axles and upholstery tacks.
They will tell you that even furniture,
filing cases, desks and chairs are now
made of metal and wood substitutes
All Of this Is perfectly true. 50 far
Rs il goes, but he who recounts Tie
things which wood is not doing has
told only part Of the story An equally
striking illustration of modern progress
Is furnished in "What wood is doing to-
ward advancing science, art and in
dustryD
While other materials are now being
used for purposes where wood alone
was once employed there is little pros
ability that tn chief function of timber
in the future will be to produce golf
sticks and baseball bats or to supply
us with flour barrels and firewood In
stead of being supplanted wood is in
greater demand than ever before even

Hungary Fear. Exhaustion
