Asbestos Is Costly and
America Hasn't Much of 1t

Washington. Asbestos, magic
wicking material once used IN the
-burnable Wieks of the eyer-burn-
ing lamps tended by the Vestal
virgins Of Rome, and now a part of
nearly every farmers oil stove, is
not a single mineral, but trade
term applied to a number of fibrous
materials, DR.. Oliver BoWles, of the
United States bureau of mines, told
the Geological society Of Washing
ton.
Commonly found associated with
serpentine rocks, from which it is
formed by alteration and recrys-
utilization, asbestos varies in value
from $3.50 a ton for inch-long fibers
of chrysotile Ga very high grade),
down to less than the cost of mining
for the short-fibered poorer grades.
The greatest problem in asbestos
production, Doctor Bowles said, is
TO separate the asbestos from the
rock without breaking the fibers.
Not we'll supplied with asbestos,
the United States has commercially
productive deposits only in Vermont
and Arizona. Most of our supply
today is imported from Canada,
with the other producers = South
Africa and Soviet notwithstanding
small amounts.

The new federal tax increases on

the government TO help pay for
Americas huge preparedness pro-
gram will be absorbed by the Noun
tam States Power Company, and
will not be passed on to consumers,
according TO a statement made by
z. E. Merrill. its president.
we appreciate. said Merrill,
that the United States cannot hope
to raise billions for national secur-
itv in a world at war unless all in
dividuals and business organiza
tons willingly make sacrifices, be-
cause the government is dependent
upon taxes produced by personal in
itiative and private enterprise.
Increases in federal taxes as of
July |. 1910. are of course in addi-
ton to very substantial increases in
state. county, and other local taxes
1t is estimated that the company's
total federal tax alone for 1910 will
be a quarter of a million dollars
Rates TO customers will not be in
creased to provide funds for these
tax increases, but will come out of
money paid by customers at present
rates. which means that it will
leave lesser amount for use in
conducting the company's business, =
he said Mr. Merrill also pointed
out that no publicly-owned utility
pays any federal taxes

Big Increase
In Timber Cut

MISSOULA. July 26.-The vol
ume of timber cut from the ma
tional forests of Montana and
northern Idaho more than doubled
in the fiscal year ending June 30,
as compared with the previous
year. according to Elers Koch, in
charge of timber management in
the Northern Rocky Mountain Re
glon
The total cut during the period
July |, 1889. to June 80, 1910, un-
der commercial sales and land ex-
change agreements, amounted to
1892, 00O board feet with value
of S488,730. During the previous
fiscal year the cut was 67,718,000
board feet with a value of S23S.87l
This increase is due in part to
better business conditions in the
lumber industry, and in part to in
ereasing dependence of the industry
on national forest timber.
''On all of the producing
forests of the Northern Rocky
Mountain Region the amount of
timber cut is not allowed TO exceed
the sustained yield of each for
est, says Mr.. Koch. The annual
cut is now at about its maximum in
the more valuable and marketable
pine forests, and no considerable
increase is expected unless the de-
mand improves for other species
such as Douglas fir, larch, white fir.
and hemlockn
