1. Increases, in 1929, compared with 1928, were experienced in l_anuary, Marc!,M"y, June, August, September, October, November and December.

2.Decreases, inl9D, compared with 1928, were experienced during the months of February, April and July. -

3. The greatest and most consistent increases, in 1929 compared with 1928, were during the last third of the year, the two largest months being, lespectively, October- and September.

It is interesting to check these facts with the policy and activities of the California Redwood Association. ai laid down by its Board of Directors. ,

To go back, fora moment, it will be remembered that the Association condu,cted a national advertising campaign d_uring the. years 19268, inclusive; that one objective -of that campaign was to widen markets and increas-e sales in so-called "Eastern" territory-and that during this thrcey-ear p€r-tod "Eastern" sal'es increased, 23/o ovcr those of the prwious three-year period.

In 1929, on the other hand, there was no national advertising; Association eff,ort was concentrated in California (with one exception) and 77/o of the 1929 increase (cofirpared with 1928) showed up in California, rather thin in the East.

-One more_{act (or coincidence, depending upon the point of view) indicative of the sound juclgmeniof-the Board of Directors and its ability to get results is this: of the 25,000,000 foot Redwood increase as shown by the records f.or l9Z9 (compared to 1928) l0 million feet was sold in "Structural" grades, for State and County Highway bridges_; nery -grad_es, toing intoa new markit deviloped for Redwood for the first time, during late L928 and, I9D, by-personal contact work of the Association'backed by active support and cooperation of sales forces of its Member mills.
