The demand continues urgent for black w-alnut for manufacturing gun 

 -tiiiks for the Viiited States army. Capt. Estes, an army officer, was 

 in Nashville recently taking steps to encourage the sale of walnut logs. 

 Local manufacturers have been instructed to run at full capacity for tin- 

 remainder of this year in the manufacture of gunstocks. Farmers are 

 being urged to sell their walnut timber as a patriotic matter to help win 

 the n-ar. and if they show disposition to be obstinate it is thought not 

 improbable that some steps will be taken to compel them to sell the logs. 

 High prices are now being paid, and owners have the most attractive 

 opportunity ever olTered In the matter of walnut. 



Several Tennessee lumber concerns have recently filed amendments to 

 their charters, increasing the amoiinl of stock authorized. The following
