V , Jrmnnxno1'i'r or pmmwoon, V H Canada s area of pulpwood isemuch' more the envy` of tne United"States than it is-.=+as it should be-the pride of` Canada. This is made clear when we realize that, out of 70,000 square `miles of timber lands under license in the Province of Quebec alone, the Yankees own nearly 15,000; there- fore, as _I5 is to.7o, so is the position of these mercantile rnarauders to the south of us with respect to Quebec timber lands. _ And unless we prohibit exporta- tion of pulpwood from"-Canada this ratio will increase year by year. In theilast quarter of a century, we have seen it `grow from practically nothing to its present alarming proportions,i and those who come after us` will nd it worsefor Canada.` and its pa.- per industry, unless a stop is put to [this marauding. ' Millions upon millions of spruce logs, hundreds of thousands of cords of pulpwood, from Quebec, On- tario, Nova Scotia and New Bruns- wick; go annually to feed the pulp and paper mills of the `Eastern, Mid- dle and Western States; Canada gets but little out of this`; the Government does not get one dollar a cord for the standing wood; the chopper, the loader and the teamster not much! Imore, and the railways only a low` rate on coarse freight; so that in all not over $6 to $7 a cord is left in Canada, on an average, for the hund- [reds of thousands of cords of pulp- wood taken out of our country an- nually. ' l i While pulpwood is a raw material of comparatively low value, it pro- tduces manufactured articles of high [cost I watch the disbursements for wages, and freight grow; every cord. of wood made into pulp will realize] about $20; when made into bre,| about $30 to` $32; when made into` paper, $40 to $45 and upwards. The {pulp and paper industry gives more healthy, steady, day and night em- ployment to a larger number `of men, women and children, at higher wag-m Grind this wood into pulp and es, all the year round, than any oth- er industryin Canada, LII. man y 1 Has Canada anything to'fear from! t 'the United States about` this ?~~.kCan| they retaliate? "Will they? No, they`? got about all they could stand of that t sort of medicine when the Dingleylf Tariff on eggs, aroused the great! 5 Canadian hen. President Roosevelt s'i big stick has no retaliation knobs on , it just now with which to whack E Canadian wood pulp. The President 1 and the press_of the United States-} urge the repeal of the United States import duty on pulpwood, wood pulp, and white news paper, and are now suggesting, nay may soon be `suing for and begging for, an agreement with -Canada to try"and prevent the Canadian Government_ from impos- ing an export duty on pulpwood or from prohibting the exportation of our wood and logs. But we must not permit `our country "and its pforestil products to be further devasta ted by 1 these marauders; let them come over ' `here and establish pulp and paperll mills; just as the Eddys, the Ba1d- ` wins, the Millens, the Bronsons, theil Youngs, the 'Westons, the IHughsons ` and others came here and established - sawmills.
