Steel has been the chief bene ficiary of the great demand for raw materials by auto makers. Production has attained new peaks this year and unfilled orders have continued to climb. Automobile accessory manufac turers have also exceeded previous records by wide margins. Tire companies are expected to continue extremely active during the next two mouths.

E Announcement of the develop ment of a new wood preservative, which will add many years to the lite or wood and which will ulti mately save American industry millions of dollars annual ry, was made yesterday by the Western telegraph company. This preserva tive, z ine meia arsenate, was de veloped by Dr. Leo Patrick Curtin, chemist of the telegraph company,: alter several years ot research. Public announcement of the pre servative by the telegraph company has been withheld pending devel opment of commercial facilities for producing il, and completion of various tests by which the effec tiveness of the process lias been definitely established. "The economic importance of this discovery can best be Hppre- elated when it is realized thai ut least 15 per cent of all the timber used in this country each year goes to replace wood that has do- ayed in service," a statement is sued by the Western Union point ed out. "Zinc ineta-arsenate, which is commercially known as ZMA, has properties possessed by no oth er wood preservative. It is applied by means of a water solution, which is non-corrosive to iron and sleel, and penetrates wood easily. Having beeu deposited lu wood, the preservative is henceforth insoluble in water and cannot be leached out of the wood by rain or other weuthenug influence. It, therefore, Is more permanent ihan uuy ma terial which has heretofore been ..ed to prolong the life of wood. t u. t..ieriuore, it is highly toxic lo decay organisms and insects. ZMA produces no change in the color, appearance or physical characteris tics of wood, and wood treated with it cau be painted as satisfac torily as untreated wood. We are already obtaining thousands of telegraph poles treated with zinc ineta-arsenate, and we believe Us use will save us millions of dollars iu the next few years." ; Dr. Curlln, internationally recog nized expert ou wood preservation, has studied many different types of wood destroying fungi. His re searches have definitely establish ed the fact that zinc meta-arsenate will add many years to the life of wood. In fact, his work indicates that ultimately the increase lu life will be greater than that effected by any of the other, present day, more expensive, preservatives. The new preservative will pro long the life of timber used lu any climate and under practically uuy conditions. It is admirably suited for treating railroad cross ties. poles, mine timbers and lumber for general construction. It furnishes permanent immunity to atalck by decay orgauisms and Insects. Wood treated with it, being paiutable, hieets all requirements for build ing and construction lumber. It is especially suited for use in the south and in tropical countries, where the destruction of timber by decay and insects is exceedingly rapid. It Is low in cost and Is ex pected to greatly increase the durability of wood and contribute much toward the conservation of the nation's timber supply. STATE MARKET AGENT'S LETTER Seller's Liability Defined Selling Qunlity Products Wheat Acreage Increased More Rain Desired Movement American Wheat Eastern Wheat Market Off (SKYMOL'H JONES) The supreme court ot Oregon rendered a decision last March which is of interest to buyers and sellers of seeds or other crop ma terials A man near Jefferson bought from a loeal merchant what the farmer desired and the seller represented to be Itosen rye, in tending it for a pHHiure crop for sheep. It turned out to be com mon rye and of far less value as siK'h pasture. The fanner sued for damages and lost his case In cir cuit court, but on appeal the su preme court reversed the decision and held that "where specified goods are sold In compliance with an order desnihine the goods, the seller in held to warrant that the (roods are of the kitui ordered. Where therr Is a contract to sell or a mile or goods by descriptor there Is an Implied Warranty that t he coodn shall corrrppond w i f h th description. " It was held alo that the true measure of dnmnires Is thf difference between the value of the crop raised by plaintiff and a crop of Rosen rye. The Farmers P::n of Toronto. Canada, cives strong voire to a sug gestion which has ben advanced in this bulletin several time?. The Sun says. -There is little doubt linn potato growers could have ob tained a profit fisiead of a Ins.1 from hist year's production if everv crnwer had graded his rrop. ell inr only the large, desirable pota toes which command a kim price i Tho cul!s could have been 1 used to feed livestock, or even leu to rot with profit If this had been done. The same idea holds true for the fruit growers, the poultry men and the hog producers. This ts a day of quality demand on the part of the consumer. Tho poor quality products can bo sold at a price, but often this portion is all iliat is needed to create a surplus und thereby drive down the price of the entire crop." In nearly all of the heavy wheat producing countries there Is an in crease in acreage this year over that of Vj2H. in Canada the In crease in winter wheat planting is 9.6 per cent; In the United States 11.9 per cent; in 15 countries of Europe 1.5 per cent; In Africa 2 per cent. In total Asia is a de crease of 1.1 per cent. The total planting of winter wheat in Canada this year is 898,000 acres and In the United States 40,467,000 acres. Spring wheat, which constitutes the principal planting In Canada and which is small in the United States, is not yet officially re ported. The Union Pacific system's weather atid crop report of May 31st for eastern Oregon Indicates a need for rain at all points east of Hood River, where there was a welcome downpour during the week and the soil Is in excellent condition. At La Grande, a light rain did some good but more Is needed. At Imbler, there was a light rain and ground is In good shape. Stock is doing well In all localities and crdps are not suffer ing seriously yet, but moisture is greatly needed. The exports of wheat, Including flour, from the United States from August 1, 1928 to May 11, 1929, were 141,563.000 bushels, against 191.789.000 bushels during the same period last year. The exports during ihe week ended May II were 2,129.000 bushels, against 1.6S5.000 bushels the previous week, and 1,018,000 bushels a year ago.
