The Dry Kiln Market

Kilqs Much in Demand

From "Circulation," The Northwest Blotrrer Kiln Company House Organ

Never before in Western lumber history has the demand for dry kilns been as active as it is at the present time: This condition is due to the following facts: l. Modern kilns enable drying all lumber items, including common and box.

2. Mill executives who have used modern kilns to the fullest, have learned the operating and marketing advantages.

3. Consumers are demanding better seasoned stock.

4: Lumber prices afford little or no profit unless every manufacturing department is 100/o efficient.

5. "Hand-to-Mouth" buying, as a result of improved rail facilities, requires more "sawing and drying to order."

6, Banks and bond houses are recognizing the earning power of good kiln investments.

7. More and more Western lumber is being shipped long distances by rail at higher rates than ever before.

8. Many lumbermen believe that it is better to build kilns now before competition reduces their present "excep- tional earning power."

Asa result of these conditions, the Northwest Blower Kiln Company has sold more kilns since the first of the year than ever before in its history, for the same period.
