t-fio SUCCEED as a marketer implies the ability to I know two things -,the source of supply and the placing of this source ofsupply atthesenrice of those who need it.

That is the solid foundation on which the new McC,ormick structure is being built. As a marketing and distributing organization, our volume has steadily increased. For thelast five yearis, we have averaged over four hundred million feet a yerrr.

Now the McCormick facilities include a most complete shipping service by Munson-McCormick, with weekly sailings from coast to coast.

Four big lumber mills, backed by one of the finest timber stands, are now being pushed to completion. At St. Helens, the Mdormick treating plant is equipped to treat 3010001000 feet of timber anntrally. For thirteen years, McCormick creosoted produas have set a standard with railroads and large users of ties, pili"g and timbers.

Thus the chain of a truly national lumber service is fast being welded. Ghas.

ROY E. HILLS RETURNS FROM EASTERN TRIP

Roy E. Hills, Wendling-Nathan Co., San Francisco, has returned to his desk again after spending the past month visiting the lumber trade of the east and making a survey-of lumbei conditions in the eastern markets. He went as far east as New York, visiting many of the larger lumber consuming centers while en route.
