TARIFF ON WOOD
PULP IS USELESS

Five hundred thousand tons of fl
ber have been adhering to cotton
seed every year.. It has been fed to
farm stock along with the seed and
has done the stock no good. Cattle
and sheep do not like the fiber and
the seed cake Is better without it. A
machine has been invented, which, it
is claimed, will separate the lint from
the seed. Paper makers think they
can use it.

A practical paper maker recently
called attention to a few of the
sources of enormous waste, when
speaking of the number of materials
ln America's refuse heap which are
worth while considering as promis
ing substitutes for wood pulp.
The northwest annually produces a
million and a half tons of flax stalks
which are not now used for anything.
That amount of waste remains after
the twine makers take all they want.
It makes excellent paper.
The farmers in the south burn or
plow under 13,000,000 tons of cotton
stalks every year. That which Is
plowed under is not wholly lost, for
it enriches the soil to some extent,
but not so with what goes up ln
smoke.

The time has not yet come when It
Is absolutely necessary that substi
tutes for wood pulp be found, but It
is coming. The forests are still able
to furnish materials for paper, but
they cannot continue to do so for a
great many years to come, at the
present rate of cutting and growth.
Makers of paper anticipate a scarcity
of pulp wood and It Is this which
prompts the active search now going
on for substitutes.

It is estimated that the population
of the city Is 22,000 at the very least

Freewater, July 4. Nearly every
body is spending the day at either
Meador park or at Walla Walla, while
there are also a number of camping
parties in the mountains, where they

The Freewater Cannery Is now ope
rating on cherries, about six tons a
day being packed. The cherry crop Is
at its height in this section of the
country, and plenty of fruit can be
had. The quality Is good, but the
fruit Is small on account of the un
usually heavy crop. An average price
for cherries in quantities Is three
cents per pound, or $60 per ton,
which makes the demand of the can
nery worth $350 per day to the far
mers. In addition, the cost or can
ning 1-3 about the same amount.
At jM-csont, Manager Kortz of the
cannery states that he has a payroll

GATHERING OF BISnOPS.
All Corners of Earth to be Represent
ed at Ijambeth Conference.
Galtered and aproned bishops of
the Angeiican church from all cor
ners of the earth 80 of them from
America are assembled today In
London to take part ln the decennial
Lambeth conference. In all, 250
bishops are there, many of whom
took part in the Pan-Angellcan con
ference, and will represent at the con
ference a Christian community of no
less than 100,000,000 persons. While
the actual business of the conference
will not be commenced until Monday,
the distinguished churchmen will be
received tomorrow at Canterbury. On
Sunday there will be a celebration of
holy communion at Westminster Ab
bey, the sermon to be preached by
the Dean of Westminster.
England and Wales will be repre
sented by 37 bishops at the confer
ence. Canada, Australia, India,
South Africa, China and Japan have
also sent nearly all of their bishops,
Among .the delegates Is Assistant
Bishop Cluwolle, a full-blooded ne
gro who has many native clergymen
under his Jurisdiction in the Jungles
of the dark continent. The United
States has by far the largest represen
tation.
The conference will continue to Au
gust 6. Among the subjects slated for
discussion are the relations of the
church to modern thought, science,
philosophy, democracy and social and
economic questions. Religious edu
cation in schools, supply and training
of clergy, foreign missions, reunion
and intercommunion, prayer book
adaptation, marriage problems, di
vorce, "race suicide," faith healing,
and Christian science are other prob
lems which will be considered.
It must be understood that while
the decisions of the conference will
carry great weight with churchmen
the world over, they will have no
binding effect on anybody. They will
be simply expressions of opinion by
the leaders of the church which the
various branches of the Angeiican
communion may or may not adopt as
they please.

lar nature, are questions which have
popped up in La Grande today and
which local attorneys are wasting
brain matter over.
It is likely that the supreme court
will have to decide on some of these
Issues in the near future, but until
it does, there will be a considerable
quandry in La Grande. At short no
tlce, several attorneys of the city have
today agreed on various phases of the
shipping laws. It Is the concensus of
opinion that liquor can be shipped In
and out of this city without molesta
tation by the authorities. There is a
restriction, of course, and that Is that
no local dealer can ship liquors out
that have not been paid for before
the law became effective as they
would then be violating the provision
which stipulates that liqudr cannot be
sold, exchanged or given away in
dry county. That does not provide
that a foreign shipper can supply lo
cal wholesalers or retailers, but for
domestic purposes only. It also ap
pears that liquor can be shipped from
La Grande to any outside point, pro
vlded, as stated before, there Is no
deal to be construed as exchanging,
giving away or selling. That series
of provisions naturally dispels any
possibility of manufacturing the 11
quor ln Union county for sale out of
the county.
It Is only to be expected that some
one will violate the law unlntentlon
ally or otherwise, and thus bring the
matter before the supreme court, to
have it acted upon by that august
body. La Grande Observer.
FERN'S PRESERVE FOOD.
Eurojenns SticceSNfully Use the Leaves
In Many Ways.
Consul General Richard Guenther,
of Frankfort, advises that a newspa
per of that German city states that the
fern plant, which grows almost every
where, Is an excellent preservative for
nucklne articles of food, fruit, etc. A
summary of the article follows:
People who have lived in England
know that the English have used it
successfully for many years. Valua
ble fruit, fresh butter, etc.. are no
longer seen ln the English markets
nacked In eraDevine leaves, but al
most always In fresh fern leaves,
which keep the articles excellently.
This Is done where grapevine leaves
are to be had In abundance. Every
one posted well In botany knows the
hleh nreservative power of fern
leaves with reference to vegetable and
animal substances.
On the Isle of. Man fresh herrings
are packed In ferns and arrive on the
market In as fresh a condition as
when they were shlppea. Potatoes
packed In ferns keep many months
longer than others packed only In
straw. Experiments maae wun Doin
straw and fern leaves ln the same cel
lar Bhowed surprising results In favor
of ferns. While the potatoes packed
In straw mostly showed signs of rot
ting ln the spring, those In ferns were
as fresh as If they had just rjeen
dug.
Fresh meat Is also well preserved
by fern leaves. It would seem as If
the highly preservative qualities of
fern leaves are due to their high per
centage of salt. No larvae, maggots,
etc., approach ferns, as the strong odor
keeps them away.
