Record Is Set
By Paper Mills
Product Now Rolling Out
At the Highest Rate in
American History.

NEW YORK.-Exclusive of news
print, paper and paper products now
are rolling from American mills at
the highest rate in history. and the
gap between supply and demand in
most categories may be closed by
the end of the year. One OF the
major shortages, according to in
dustry leaders, appeared to be in
paper tor the book and magazine
trade.
Chief difficulty in this division was
not to determine supply - esti-
mated to be about 100000 tons
greater this year than last-but to
guess the future demand, since the
recent hike in OPA wood pulp cell
ing prices of about 10 per cent could
work two ways:
Production might be spurred by
attracting more pulpwood from
farm woodlots and adding profit IN
centive at the mill level.
Cost May Go Higher.
But, at the same time, the cost
of paper might go to point where
publishers would drop some OF
their marginal publications and
print fewer books.
Total U. S. production of paper
and paperboard in August was esti-
mated at 1,715, 710 tons by DR.. Louis
T. Stevenson, economist for Amer
lean Paper and Pulp association.
Daily average production was run.
ming about II per cent ahead of last
year.
The industry entered 1916 hoping
to produce at rate of about 18 mil
lion tons domestically this year.
Present production is at rate of
more than 20 million tons year.
Estimates for 1916 have been re.
vised as follows: Domestic produc-
ton, 18,62O,0O0 tons; imports. $780,
600 tons; exports, 475,000 tons; CIV
ing American consumers 81, ,245. 900
tons of paper and paper products.
The gap between supply and de.
mand has been steadily narrowed.
One industry source estimated that
at the end of June supply was rum
ming one million stons behind de-
mand, but the association believes
that the gap should be whitfield
down to reasonable dimensions by
the end of this year."
Future Trouble Spots.
There are, however, several fu-
ture trouble spots.
Swedish pulp, on which American
mills have depended in the past to
fill the gap between American pro-
duction and American needs, has
practically stopped coming in, and
the OPA price rise of 10 per cent
designed to meet the 10 per cent in
crease in the value of the Canadian
dollar-fell short of meeting a IA
per cent hike in the value of the
Swedish krona.
The Swedes shipped about 200, ,000
tons to the United States so far this
year, and Finland 5000 tons. If the
price incentive boosts total domestic
probationary per cent, loss of the
Swedish shipments would be offset.
Little more is expected from
Sweden because, American mill
owners pointed out, the Swedes can
sell all their pulp in European and
South American markets at prices
above the American ceiling.
Consumers of paper noted with
satisfaction that several pulp mills
being built in Canada are about
ready to start production.

Coveted Star Farmer Award
Given to Four Rural Youths
Top Honor Goes
1H Pennsylvania
High School Boy
By w. j. DRYDEN
WNU Farm Editor.

of the United States is 2O-year-
old William G Carlin of
lCoatesville, Chester county,
Pa. He has won the title of
Star Farmer of America
most coveted honor that can
he won by an American farm
boy.
fOf what stuff are champion farm
cerS made? In the case of William
CCarlin the answer would be summed
up in a statement of his zeal, his
enthusiasm, and his attention to de-
tail in developing rundown farm
into a high producing enterprise.
The award was made at the re-
ccent National Victory convention of
Future Farmers of America held
at Kansas City. Carlin was chosen

ing vocational agriculture in high
schools oof the country, who make

Farming in partnership with
his brother on 100 acres of land,
fCarlin has made an outstanding
record in bringing rundown
farm hand back into production.
His accomplishments in soil re-
'habiIitation are cited as exam
pies for farmers throughout the
country.
In 1910 the Carlin brothers took
over "a farm owned by their father
and previously operated by tenants.
Through the years the land had
been literally 'farmed out" with
severe gully erosion present and
with the soil in poor condition.
Purchase New Farm.
Through their classes in vocation
al agriculture in high school, these
boys learned what had to be done
to bring such land back into good
production. Land that had produced
only Is bushels of corn to the acre
in 1889 brought yield of SIS bushels
in 1912 BY 1914 they had acoumu-
lated enough profits to buy 80 acres
of land with house and farm build
ings. Today the farm is a going
business, with assets of nearly $15,-
900. It's resources include 145 head
of beef cattle, $4,000 chickens, SO
market hogs, so acres of corn, IS
acres of hay and 25 acres of oats
and barley.
Billy Carlin has been active in
the affairs of his community. He
is a member Of the farm bureau,
farmers exchange, cooperative ex-
change and grange. In 1944-45 he
was president of Pennsylvania Asso-
