INCREASING HIS TRAPS

John w. Dryer, well known resi- dent of the Mile IA country, came inta town last evening on a brief business trip leaving again today. Dryer, who when not mining or showing his many visitors where the moose in that region can be found, says he is increasing his number of traps this winter owing to the fact animals seem to he har- der to catch; he believes that on account of them being fat at the present time they are more or less, sticking by their holes.

Pineapple to Furnish
Future Paper Supply?

Caroa, a species of wild pineapple
found In Brazil, may soon be used to
provide pulp for making frst-class
paper.
For centuries the natives of Brazil
have cut the long narrow leaves that
protect the carOa fruit, and obtained
fiber from them by beating the leaves
between two stones. From this they
make Irvine and ropes by "wet rot
ting"
In the experiments the pulp was OBJ
tanned from this native rope, which
was cut into short lengths, threshed,
cooked In a solution of caustic soda,
bleached, and beaten. The caroa
fibers are cylindrical and compare
lively long. but of small diameter,
properties that enable them to mat to-
gether easily, giving compactness and
strength to the shoot
Gum, oil, baisam, pitch and acid, are
also obtained from this pineapple.

Rat Killing Profession
of Two College Girls

New York.-Overcoming the fem
mime aversion to rodents, two college
girls, Miss Helen Caldwell, graduate
of the University of West Virginia
and Miss Evelyn Wagar, graduate of
the University of Minnesota, have
adopted rat killing as a profession.
"We have already exterminated rats
in important cities in 80 of the United
States, two provinces In Canada, Ha-
wall, Alaska and many Mexican bor-
der Cities" Miss Caldwell said. "As
we travel in our own automobile we
have had much sightseeing and pleas
ure as well as profit out of our pro-
fession, and we can recommend it to
other college girls"
Miss Caldwell got her original idea
from a community rat drive in Vir-
ginia, during which she learned the
use of barium carbonate, the most
effective rat poison known, from her
study of chemistry in college.

over the period there had been a grad

including oil, which continued to in
crease.
This and the large and increasing
number of failures in America, he
said, suggested that industry in that
