BUYING STOCK
The Newark Livestock Com
. pany is advertising in today’s
paper that they want to buy a
, hundred head of hogs. This
firm is composed of B. A. Mag
ness and R C. Chamberlain of
this place and J. M. Cravens of
This firm is now feeding
; and preparing for market
about two hundred head of
good cattle, and have some of
as fine beef animals as have
ever been raised Jiere. The
feeding process has been
going on for some time and a
number of the best grade cat
tle are now being finished on
corn, preparatory to shipping
to market in the near future.
Farmers who have hogs to
sell, call on either of these gen
tlemen at Newark, or farmers
south of the river may see J
Oil Trough.
These getlemen state that in
order to secure these hogs they
will pay the top market prices,
as they pelieve hogs can be
very profitably handled in con
nection with their cattle opera
tions and they wish to secure a
good number of hogs as quick
ly as possible.
THE SCARCITY OF
WOOD PRODUCTS
The American people are
cutting wood cut of their for
ests three or four times as
fast as the supply is being
grown- This produces scarcity
in the basic essentials of life.
A large part of the pros
perity cf this country has been
created by the former abun
dant and cheap supply of
wood products. In Europe
they depleted most of their
supply of wood many years
ago. Consequently European
cities are largely built of
stcne, brick, cement, etc., at
a higher cost than the Ameri
can town, which is largely
built of wood.
One reason for popular in
telligence in this country, is
that the abundant wood sup
ply formerly permitted the
manufacture of paper pulp at
a very lew price. This made
it possible to distribute great
quantities of cheap paper for
use in newspapers, maga
zines, and books. This has
made popular education
through the printed page
available to the humblest
family.
The high prices of the past
three years in lumber, paper
pulp, etc. reveal how these
products have been wasted.
Forest fires have burned up
these essential materials with
inconceivable rapidity, and
careless lumbering has in
creased the waste.
You can burn up in one
night timber enough to build
the houses of a large town,
or to run the newspapers of
your state for many months,
while it takes 40 years to.grow
the trees that shall take the
place of those that have gone !
