Avoidable Waste in 

 I he Forest. 



A lodiied tree in a 

 New Brunswick opera- 

 tion left to rot. 



A $30,000 corporation has been 

 formed by twenty-eight prominent 

 business men of Dallas, Texas, ac- 

 cording to the News of that city, 

 to manufacture paper from cotton 

 stalks. It is planned to increase the 

 capitalization of the company, which 

 had been chartered, and erect a one- 

 quarter million dollar mill for the 

 process. Samples of paper from cot- 

 ton stalks have been made and the 

 method it is announced, has been 

 proven satisfactory. 



TEA BY THE OPEN FIRE 



From the faucets of the fountain. 



And the bottles of the bar, 

 I've tried many fancy gargles. 



Most as many as there are. 

 But the drink that's first and fore- 

 most, 



If you put it up to me, 

 Is the scalding can of ashes, 



Swamp juice, soot — and tea. 



From "OUTI XG-'.
