Randall of Lower Paw- catuck was thrown from his wagon on Main street Monday morning and sustained a severe cut on the top of his head about three inches in length. Randall’'s wagon was struck by an express ‘'wagon drawn by a horse owned by Willlam A. Burk of Main street. The express wagon was be- ing loaded with iron pipe in the rear of the store of Davey and Maxwell when the animal became worried and- started on a run up Main street. Near Bannon's drug store the express wa- gon collided with the Randiall Tig and Mr. Randall was thrown onto the pavement when the wagon tipped cver. The horse continued up Main street and struck the automobile own- ed by E. Howard Clark. The animal had an iron weight attached to its bridle, but nevertheless it ran up High street almost to Canal before it was stopped by William Smith. Randall was taken into the Bannon drug store where he was given first aild treatment by Dr. John F. M. Keighley, a dentist, who happened to be in the store at the time, and soon afterward Dr. M. H. Scanlon arrived and dressed the wound. Clans Soneral of Watch Hill was arraigned before Clerk Clarence E.

Washington, July 23—The United States today emphasized its faith in the Russian government by extending it a further credit of $75,000,000. This is the second Russian credit, the first, for $100,000,000, having been established soon after = the United States entered the war. It is under- stood most of the $100,000,000 already has been spent for railroad:supplies and that much of the $75,000,000 will be used in theysame manner. An_additional credit of $60,000,000 to France also was authorized today by Secretary McAdoo, bringing the total advanced to all the allies, in less than three months, up to $1,523,000,- 000, or more than half of the $3,000,- 000,000 authorized by congress.

FREE AUTO DELIVERY "~ ALMOST NATURAL : DEMAND $120,000,000 Wasted Every Year on Containers of Wood Fibre. Boston, July 23.—Every person in the United States should be interest- e@ in reducing the shortage of paper supply and thereby helping to lower the cost of paper. This because they all are helping—possibly without realizing it—to pay for the present high costs. Many of the publishers have been forced to advance the prices for their newspapers and magazines, wWrapping paper and bags and boxes cost the candy stora, the groceryman more and everyone who sells goods contain- ed in them more—and, lastly, the pub- lic pays. Secretary of Commerce Redfieild has appealed to*the people of the country to save old newspapers in order to help relieve the situation and the national government is un- derstood to be contemplating further steps to conserve the supply and reg- ulate prices. Every newspaper publisher, no mat- ter whether he owns a great city daily, a suburban weekly or a coun- try paper and all who buy papers and anything made of or wrapped up in paper should realize that he is paying his part, directly or indirectly. If he pays another cent for his newspaper he probably realizes it; If his sugar bundle on Saturday night costs him a cent more probably he doesn’t know what part the wrapper plays, Prices are excessively high—some- thing like twice normal for news- print. Some papers of half a mil- lion or so daily circulation are paying at the rate of $1,000,000 more for their paper than they were a few years ago. This is a great burden, espec- ially in these times of high labor costs and high prices generally. Some pa- pers have been forced to So out of business as a result; others are mak- ing_little or nothing. While the great newspapers of the largest cities are paying out extra money by the hundred thousands for paper and the smaller ones are pay ing more in proportion to their circu- lation, some of the papers have been forced to go up on their prices, nota- bly the one-cent dailles; magazines jumped long ago. A remedy was sought through the government—and with some success— but under present conditions prob- ably further action will be taken. There are some men who believe that there is available one oppor- tunity to stop at least a iarge part of the waste every year of pulp sup- plies. They claim’ that $120,000,000 is wasted each year on containers of wood and fibre, which might much better be ground into pulp for pa- per, so far as continuous usefulness goes, and that these are thrown away after completing a single trip. This waste has grown tremendously in the past few yvears. The volume it now has assumed may be shown clearly when one takes into consid- eration the exports of paper and pulp wood from Canada. For the year ending in July, 1916, $21,678,868 worth of paper and $%),865,266 worth of pulp and pulp wood were exported. Of these totals the United States re- celved eighty-eight per cent. of the paper and eighty-seven per cent. of the pulp. The point of interest, how- ever, is that there was spent for boxes and fibre containers—all thrown away after one trip—$120,000000 or roughly twice the value of all the Ca- nadlan paper and pulp exports. This is worthy of the most careful consid- eration—that the United States throws away each pear on contain- ers twice as much as the value of all exports of one of the Dominion’s lead- ing industries. It has been said by Willlam G. Groom, traffic manager of the Whita- ker Paper company (in an address be- fore the Industrial Club of Covington, Ky.) that a single Sunday edition of some of the New York newspapers consumes the pulp from fifteen acres of forest trees or 750 acres of trees for one year's Sunday editions of only cne of the great newspapers. Proba- bly the same paper would require about one-fourth as much for its dai editions _on the averaze, and if this be so then in cne ear nearly 2,000 acres of forest trees would have to be cut down and reduced to pulp to meet the needs of a_single newspaper of the largest circulation. With many thousands of newspa- pers.to be provided for and with the other enormous demands for pulp and paper it would seem sputable that anythinz that will help conserve the supply should be adopted, if it is cconomical and practical. An_indestructible container would largely eliminate the waste on one- trip boxes. It could be used over and ove and, if strongly built, sure- ly would save the railroads hundreds paid of thousands of dollars annuall Bulletin’s Pattern Service 1629 A POPULAR 20-MINUTE APRON.

It would make it possible to pack freight so as to secure much larger advantage of the car space than now is possible with the fragile containers of thin wqod and fibre. These cannot be piled’one on top of the other without breakage, Another viewpoint from which to obtain an idea of how much effect the elimination of the one-trip con- tainers means to the public is to re- member that the value of all of the pulp and fibre used in the United States is $300,000,000 and that one- half, nearly, is thrown away after brief usefulness. There are those who believe that this waste should be stopped. One packing case good for say 100 trips should be economy in the end even for the packer, when contrasted with the 100 cases now used for 100 trips. If, in this way, one-half of the pulp supply could be conserved the saving should Jower the price at once, and permanently. No other argument seems possible to those who have studied it. There is still another great benefit to be considered in this connection, say experts, and that is that by en- abling much fuller loading of box freight cars the metal containers will release thousands of cars for reliev- ing the congestion. If only ten per cent. larger were carried it would mean 2 more cars would be released and $40,- 000,000 in actual operating expenses would be saved the year. At present on 3 cent. of box-car space is u in the business. average, so that a saving of several times ten per cent. seems possible and practicable with these contain capable of being packed properly Naturally, hlso, the releasing of cars and the more expeditious hand- ling of freight the country over would be of tremendous advantage to every business man and, presumably, would make for lower prices on many things.
