Caruthers. ON CONSERVING GAS RESOURCES I (Uy The Associated I'rcus.) Little Kock, Dec. 2K Arkansas' supply of natural gas, although abundant, is considered far too precious to bo wasted by oil men who are so anxious to take liquid treasure from the earth that they sometimes do not take tbo proper precaution to conserve the less valuable fuel that goes with it. For.this reason, J. 0.

Pmalley, chief deputy of the bureau of conservation, recently paid a visit to the Union county oil field to check up on reports that operators were blowing oil and water from wells with gas, which is a violation of the law. Following his visit it was announced that Ostrich feathers have so lost their popularity that these birds aro now being killed in South Africa for their skins and flesh. above the output, Better weather has aided southern pine loggers, and with increased log Input there has been an improvement in production. Output of the larger southern pine mills, however, remained close to 13 per cent helow normal. Shipments were almost 10 per cent above the output, and orders were per cent above It.

Northern and eastern markets continue rather inactive, but building activity in the south and especially in Florida is consuming large amounts. During the week there were some advances in qoutntions on common items. The fir mills during the week ended December shipped 8 per cent more than their cut. Orders amounted to 97 per cent of the rut. Cargo trade, both domestic and foreign, showed somo falling off.

California trado is only fair, and probably the Atlantic coast will buy conservatively until after year-end inventories. The samo tendency to hold off is noted in the middlo west rail market. Florida is becoming an increasingly, important taker of fir. Late reports indicate that the usual holiday shutdown of logging camps and ruilli will be extended, and the curtailment in supply, is expected to firm up the market) for spring trade. Southern hardwood production to 71 per cent of normal as a result of weather improvement permitting some logging to be done.

Shipments were 107 per cent of the same mark, and new bookings were 97 per cent of normal production. It is not expected that output will catch up on demand until around the beginning of May. Quotations have steadied but of course remain very firm. Northern hardwoods are in a much stronger position than earlier in the season, the year's surplus of production over shipments having been reduced from C'J to SO' million fct in the last 20 weeks. Business in northern woods is good and prices arc firm.
