L. Allen, Federal Prohibjtion Director for: this state. ast r our alien farm crops were hall except the cane crop, which was larger ‘than usual,” said Mr. Al- Jen. “One year ago this month. cane syrup was selling at $1.50 a gallon. This year with double the crop, peo- ple in West Florida have told me that they are offered only thirty-five and forty cents a gallon for their syrup. “Many of these people in those circiunstances haye found the ‘part- ing cf the ways and have sold their syrup to a bootlegger neighbor or have used it themselves in making moonshine, Only three gallons of Syrup are- necessary to make a quart of liquor. The market value of the syrup is $1.05 to a $1.20 while the quart of moonshine will sell for $5 a f or $6, First water mill in the United id to have been_built on States is the Dorchester side of ‘the Neponset river-in New England in 1634, j Nel NNERS IN RACE-FOR BEST CURLS Girls of Crosby High School; Waterbury, Conn., are giving their curls ithe best of care to win a prize to be given by M.

RETAIL LUMBER DEALERS MEET IN MINNEAPOLIS 2,000 Delegates From Six States | ‘ Are Said To Be in | Attendance Minneapolis, Minn., Jan. 18.—With retail lumber dealers from Minnesota, North and South Dakota, Iowa, 4 and Montana in attendance, | the thirty-second annual convention } of the Northwestern Lumbermens’ as- sociation opened here yesterday. More than 2,000 delegates were on hand from the six states. Sessions continue today and Thursday, In view of the prospective building} throug gh their membership, gave their boom the coming year, the lumber- men were to further plans for a “buil@ homes” campaign, oné that will include the erecting of homes to fit the pocketbook of the builde ing to officials of the assoc! Edgar G. Griggs of Tacoma, Wash., was the principal speaker at the; opening session, which begun short- ly after noon. A prediction that the biggest-building program the world has seen would be inaugurated, if ali commodities: were readjusted in price as Jumber manufacture has been, wa voiced by Mr. Griggs, who is. pres tion. dent of the St. Paul and Tacoma Lum- | ber Company. Lumber manufacturers know that dealers in the middle west have to deal with farmers who “have faced ruin and low prices on their produc’ admitted. Money, however, is. easier, he said, and the dealer will need lum- ber in 1922, “We believe there is a shortage’ throughout he the lumber company presi ed, “and we know the railroads them- selves have been unable to provide | housing | he} | new equipment or even care for re- newals and repairs. Mr. Griggs utged the necessity of seeking foreign trade, inasmuch as the | general situation in thé export lum- | ber markets has been a reduced de- mand. Ships are need to carry on this trade, he added, but stated that under American laws, American ships “are not sailed at a profit, ept on | intercoastal trade, while British bot- | toms returns dividends. | Thirty per cent less lumber was | produced on the Pacific coast in 1921 than in the previous year, through a | decreased demand, Mr. Griggs inform-| {ed the lumbermen. He made a plea, also, for a reduction in the present high freight rates on lumber. Welcoming, the visiting lumbermen jon behalf of the Minneapolis » Civic | |and Commerce association, Frank. T.
