alCKS' FORECASTS
A Reactionary Storm Period is
central'on the last three days of Feb-.
rua'ry. The Moon is at lase quarter
on the 26th, at extireme declination
south on the 27th, in perigee on the
29th. These ¢lays will bring return
of low barometer, southerly winds,
warmer weather, general rains. As, we
enter March, storms of rain turning

THE P00p, Q UALITY, OF PAiP,ER,
You hke]y ;have remarked the poor
quality and faded appearance of the
deity papers in this and almoe,t all
other newspapers for some weeks
past. This deterioration is sir•:d to gal
one of the incidents of the war is
Europe:- It is said that certain dues
used; in the in iking of white. paper
are .no longer proeureable. Germany
oppears to have had quite a monopoly
of dye production. Colored papers, too
,as are generally teed for bills and
posters lave gone up one and two
cents per pound accent -1y because of
the advance in blue, green and red
coloring dyes. By lie time the war
is over 'the Gcrm•irt manufacturers
will find that they will have Jost
much of the valuable dye industry.
A traveller last v eek stated to the
New Era that certain lines of paper
were still selling `,t the csaal price
$2.60 per ream, het that the same
paper in scarlet color 'was $1.00 extra.
The price of ink has now started on
the upward climb. News print
which was sold on contract last
summer, the lowest being $2.50 per
100 lbs. is now as high as $3425 at
some mills, while ' others are selling
about $3.10 and $3.15. This is gorn,g
to he a serious quest ion to th,a 'prin-
ters and it means one oil two'tLings,
