Duty on Compo Board.
A recent Order-in-Council states that the duty on “compo” board, which consists of timber with a layer of paper-pulp, strawboard, paper or similar material, cemented thereto on one or both sides, is to be charged at the rate of four shillings per hundred superficial feet, and, in addition, is liable to a primage duty of 1 per cent, ad valorem. This material, which is used as a substitute for dressed timber, is not specifically mentioned in the tariff.
