A GREAT WASTE,
United States imports half a millino
tans of rags and «-aste paper every
year, and yet burns and destroys
carelessly more •than she im•porfs.
The people of Canada may well aro-
fit by the informations All kinds of
rags -white and colored -linen or cot-
ton or woollen -are made into paper.
All kinds of paper -sailed, inked or,
clean -newspapers, magazines, books,
or wrapping raper -have a ready
market. Sir George Foster says: "It
is of great importance now that this
waste, should be stopped, and that the
saved material should be used to re-'
produce fresh supplies. A little at
tention, to the saving of rags and old
papers will mean a genuine relief to°
au:: paper industry." '
The Soldiers' Aid Society will col
lect rags rubbers, and paper again air
