The average man takes life as a trouble. He is in a constant state of irritation at the whole performance. He does not learn to differentiate between troubles and difficulties, usually, until some real trouble bowls him over. He fusses about pin-pricks until a mule kicks him. Then he learns the difference.

California has been building with Green Fir for years because it got into a bad habit, and habits of long standing are hard to tfrow off.

Of late Fir has been fooding the Middle West and Soutfiwest (Texas-Oklahoma) districts. First th"y rhipped them Green Fir. But the trade took less than a year to discover that Green Fir mahes a far inferior building to Dry Fir, and notw the mills are shipping Dry Fir to those territories.

And the difference between a green lumber home and a dry lumber home is just as great in California.
