They reque'st California lumbermen to forward to their office there, 1203 Fourth Avenue, any items of interest that they might use. \Me are reprinting herewith an editorial from this first issue:

T'he California Department of the Nettlet'on Lumber Company was organized trvo years ago to conduct a

"direct Mill to Dealer" lumber business. We pinned our,hopes of su,ccess upon the surmise that, heretofore, there had not been a close enough relationship between the mill ,pr'oducing the lumber and the dealer in California selling the same. The co-operation which we have s,ecured from the Southern dealers, together with the most satisfactory growth of this department is convincing evidence that there was need in Southern California of an organization with ,s,uch a policy.

We desire to foster and preserve the spirit of close cooperation between mills and dealers wlhich now exists. In our opinion this can best be accomplished through the medium of a department paper which will incorporate news of the mills, vessels, and dealers doin$ busin,ess through the Nettleton Lumber Company. It will also be the purpose of the paper to further the business acquaintances and friendships between mills and dealers, thereby strengthening the confidence of one in the other.

We get a lot of 'enjoyment out of doing business and find that the better we know the other fellow. the less reasonr we have for suspecting him. So here's for a most successful business y'ear through a larger and more complete understanding between the manufacturers in the North and our Southern friends. the retail lumber mer'chants.

We can ship you straight or mixed cars of the materials listed here. You can put many necessities in a single car. We manufacture all trhis stock ourEelves. You know the quality of Arkansas hardwoods. Prices or information gladly furnished.

Plans Made For Timber Sales On Two California Forests

Plans for perman'ent logging operations on 45,000 acres in the Owens River-Mono Lake Working Circle of the Inyo and Mono National Forests have been approved by the Forest Service, United States Department of Agriculture. The area involved contains a stand of timber estimated at 560,000,000 board feet, mostly Jeffrey pine, lodgepole pine, and fir.

Under the approved management plan the forest will be cut over twice during the next 140 years, during which time a new timber crop will have grown to insure a continuous supply of merchantable timber from this forest. Trees which may be cut will be designated by forest officers and the cuttings will be limited to mature and over-mature stock, the thrifty trees and saplings being reserved for the future.

The timber from this region will be used to meet the needrs of towns, ranches, and mines located in the Owens River Valley north of Owens Lake, Deep Spring and Fish Lake Valleys, and the ,mining camps in nearby Nevada north to and including Cand'elaria. The area has a permanent population of about 7,000 arid a recreation seeking population of about 30,000 each summer. T,his locality, surr,ounded on three sides by desert, has been designated by the Forest Service as a dependency area in that it is dependent upon the timber from the Owens River-Mono Lake Working Circle for its lumber and fuel necessities.

The sustained annual yield during the first 7O years is forecast at 7,000,0@ board feet. A sawmill ,plant has already started.the manufacture of lumber from the mature tree,s with the prospect of a never-ending supply of merchantable timber.
