WEEKLY WAR
NEWS DIGEST
Wartime Demand for Cotton
Is Enormous.
Recent Investigations in the use of
cotton in war show:
A 12-Inch gun disposes of a half
bale of cotton with every shot fired;
a machine gun in operation will use
up a bale in three minutes; In a naval
battle like the one off Jutland over
5000 pounds a minute are consumed
by each active warship; more than
20,000 bales a year are needed to pro
vide absorbant cotton for the wounds
of the Injured; one change of apparel
for all the troops engaged in the war
represents more than a million bales.
Even Food Administration Men Can't
Get Their Sugar.
Members of the Food Administra
tion at Washington, D. C, now have
an added personal reason for urging
conservation of sugar.
A recent canvass of retail stores of
the city showed that of 22 stores 15
had no sugar. Three had only a small
supply of cube sugar in packages.
Every store had less than 100 lbs.
and none had prospect of an immedi
ate supply. Ot three wholesalers and
one Jobber, two had no sugar. One
had a three-day supply.
No relief is promised for at least
six weeks, and Washington will be on
a short sugar ration until after
Christmas at least.
In the Middle West and on the Pac
ific Coast, where reserve stocks are
heavier, dealers generally are respon
ding to the cry for help by placing
the same limit on sales in use in the
hard-hit Eastern districts 2 pounds
to a customer, providing other pur
chases are made.

miles of telephone wire and appara
tus, and vast quantities of construc
tion and repair equipment.
A duty Imposed upon the engineers
has been the purchase ot the neces
sary Engineer equipment tor more
than 1,000,000 men. Within 15 days

made covering the requirements tor

AMERICAN M0LESK1NSSU
American moleskins, particularly
those from the Pacific Northwest, are
superior to the moleskins of Europe
which largely make up the world sup
ply for industrial uses, according to
biologists of the United States De
partment of Agriculture. It should
be profitable, therefore, the biologists
declare, to trap these animals for
their pelts and so establish o new
American fur industry. This is true
particularly in the Northwest, where
the animals are large and plentiful,
and where it is often desirable to
keep their numbers down to prevent
injudy to filds and lawns. Such a
new industry should be especially de
sirable for farmers' boys as a side Is
sue it is pointed out.
The habits of American moles are
described and methods of capturing
them and treating and marketing
their skins are outlined in a Farmers'
Bulletin, "Trapping Moles aud Utiliz
ing Their Skins," recently issued by
the United States Department of Ag
riculture. The publication also offers
sugegstions for the tanning of the
pelts so that they may be made lo
cally into women's neckpieces, muffs,
and coats. Copies of the bulletin
may be had free si long as the supply
lasts on application to the United

To Our Friends:
The day of Thangsgiving is again at
hand. And there's much to be thankful
for, regardless of building operations,
which have been below par.
During the past year our country has
attained a position among the nations
which will ultimately be of direct or in
direct value to every business.
It is only a question of time when
the United States will lead every other
nation in world-commerce, finance and
power.
The war has placed in our hands the
"balance of power" as a guarantor of the
permanent peace of the world.
In the thousands of years of world
history the present generation is the
first to see man's mastery of the heights
of the air and the depths of the ocean.
Wireless communication has reduced the
cost and increased the opportunities of
world business to a point our forefathers
could only dream of.
To be living in such a country in such
times as these is alone sufficient cause
for the deepest gratitude.
Let us observe Thanksgiving this year
with full hearts and a fitting apprecia
tion of the wonderful advantages we en
joy. Sincerely yours,
THE TUM-A-LUM LUMBER CO.
