Big Demand lor Dty Lumber at Fir Mills for Delense Program

There is a tremendous demand by the Government for dry lumber at the Fir mills in the Northwest for the defense program all up and down the Pacific Coast, Alaska, Washington, Oregon, California and Panama Canal.

The mills have not enough dry lumber to supply these needs and will have to speed up operations to get the orders out. This will make a great shortage at the mills of dry lumber items that would naturally go into the regular retail lumber channels.

The inquiries are tremendous, many of the mills are already sold out of dry lumber, and are only allowing their customers so much and rationing out their orders. In many districts the mills are entirely unable to supply the great demand. The Government is buying quantities of flooring, siding, sheathing, millwork, sash and doors, in fact, everything the mills make.

Lumber buying for the defense program is just starting but already has reached large proportions.

Increases in orders, shipments and production of Northwest lumber were disclosed in reports of. lA7 mills to the 'Western Pine Association.

Orders for the week ended August 3 totaled 92,898,000 feet, compared with 86,063,000 feet for the previous week and 82,784,000 feet for the corresponding week last year. Similar comparisons of shipments are 83,310,000 feet, 81,071,000 feet and 77,984,W f.eet.

Production totaled 93,m7,000 feet to 91,136,000 feet last week and 77,514,W feet for the same period in 1939.

Orders on hand at the end of the week totaled, 265,2l2,NO f.eet.

Reports from 117 Southern Pine mills for the week ended August 3 gave orders as 42,373,W feet, shipments 40,061,000 {eet, and production 33,36Op00 feet.

Orders were 9913,000 feet, or 27.O2 per cent, above production for the week, and 2,312,W feet, or 5.77 per cent, above shipments. Shipments were 6,701,000 feet, ot 2O.O9 per cent above production for the week.

- Orders on hand at the end of the week totaled 94,1?3,' 000 feet.

Lumber cargo receipts at Los Angeles-Long Beach Harbor for the week ended August 1O totaled 18,357,00O feet as compared with 2l,O6a,\feet the preceding week.

As we go to press 13 lumber yards in San Diego are shut down due to labor troubles. Lumber operators and union leaders are conferring with Harry Malcolm, United States Department of Labor conciliator, towards a settlement of the strike.

BELL YARD CHANGES HANDS

Bell Lumber Company, fnc., has purchased the yard of J. & W. C. Shull, Inc., at 3491 East Gage Avenue, Bell, Calif.

Jack Shacher, for the past five years, sales manager at this yard, is manager.

This concern is well equipped for going after home building business. Office space has been rented to H. M. Banfield, certified architect, and the Federal Escrow Company. The latter firm is managed by E. A. Gustavson, former trust officer with the Title fnsurance & Trust Co., and the Bank of America.

When Jones struck oil, quite sudden he Grew egotistic, vain, and haughty; Talked of his wealth where'er he,d be, Which you'll admit was very naughty.

Before the depot's gaping crowd.

"Where to? Shucks, man! What do f care? Me? I've got business everywhere.,'

A wise man never ceases his education. To the day of his death he is a pupil, a learnep, a seeker after knowledge.

Some men are just honest enough to keep out of the penitentiary, and just smart enough to make all contributions publicly.

The demagogue, in order to betray, must first win confidence.

Once a man does you an injury, he never forgives you. t{.*

ft was Abraham Lincoln who said: ..Sinners are always calling the righteous to repentance."

But who was the inspired poet who wrote:

"Overstuffed mamas should not wear pajamas, and Gals built like hacks, should never wear slacks.,' ***

Some wise man once wrote that ..justice is the supreme consideration of mankind." But that, of courser was in the days BH-meaning-before Hitler.

Wonder what th9 "fr{a" of Mirabeau would say if he \ could look down up\tfis beloved France today? It was that great Frenchman\who, when his aide said to him

about some proposition-"fmpossible"-replied in rage: "Nevetr mention that blockhead word to me again."

Now we know beyond dou,bt, that the saturation of Communism was what destroyed the French defense in June. Now the reports come through continually from both British and Belgian contingents, that they found no great trouble in holding their own against the German assaults, but always, on both sides of them, the French fell back, so they too had to retreat.

The day is not far off in this country when we will gather up all the Communists, the Nazis, and every other active or potential Fifth Column, and ship them all out of this country, as I once heard an eloquent American say -'rQ1 a ship of stone, with sails of lead, over a sea of fire, with Hell for a destination."

It is well to remember that the pages of history tell us that the causes that live are not necessarily those that are the most just, but rather those that are best defended and most ably maintained.

The Constitution is our national tree of life, the source and stream of liberty and law. And the man f look upon with deepest suspicion in these times through which we are passing so perilously, is he who says he thinks the Constitution should be "elastic.', I deem the man who utters that thought no true friend to this nation, or to its Constitution.

We should put only men in public office today who will revere that Constitution next only to their God, and who will insist that it be interpreted as the Fathers of this Republic wrote it, and not to be touched or tampered with by every temporary political majority.

Ponder over the remarks that follow. They were made by a great and true American, William Howard Taft, who was President when he made them, and who afterwards became Chief Justice of the Supreme Court. He uttered these words on March 8th, 1912: "It is a complete misunderstanding of our form of government, or of any govern-

ment that exalts justice and righteousness, to assume that judges are bound to follow the will of an electorate in respect of the issue of their decision. In many cases before the judges that temporary majority is a real party to the controversy to be decided. It may be seeking to deprive an individual or a minority of the rights secured by the fundamental law. In such a case, if the judges were representatives or agents of the majority to carry out its will, "they would lose their judicial character entirely, and the so-called administration of justice would be a farce." *{<*

V[/e hear much these days about what the media of exchange in this commercial world will be if England falls to the Nazi; and many surmises as to what will then be the value of our gold hoard. I dunno. Money always pazzles me, anyway. I think it does most other folks, especially rnany who claim to understand it in a large way. Maybe that's because I've handled so little of it. Gold and silver became the world's accepted media of exchange early in the history of civilization for several primary and funda-

mental reasons. One was their indestructibility. Another was that they represented large value in small bulk.

As commerce grew we avoided the early trouble and inconvenience of weighing and testing silver and gold with each business transaction by stamping the weight and fineness on pieces of these metals, and they became money. As commerce continued to grow and the necessity for practical exchange media grew more insistent, paper representatives were substituted for the heavy and cumbersome coins of gold and silver. And, for those same reasons, next there came bank checks and drafts, being promises to pay their fair value in coin of the realm.

H. R. Northup Appointed Secreta ry oj National Retail Lumbcr

Dealers Association

Washington , July 26.---The appointment of Harold R. Northup as secretary of the National Retail Lumber Dealers Association, to take effect August 1, was announced today by the Executive Committee of the Association through Roger Finkbine, its president. Mr. Northup succeeds the late Frank Carnahan.

Declaring the NRLDA "verv fortunate in securing his services," Mr. Finkbine said the Executive Committee was confident Mr. Northup would prove a worthy successor to Mr. Carnahan.

The new secretary, a lifelong resident of Washington, D. C., has been affiliated with the National Lumber Manufacturers Association for the past thirteen years. Since 1936 he has been assistant secretary of the NLMA and secretary of the American Forest Products Industries, fnc., a subsidiary of the National Lumber Manufacturers Association.

With the launching of the nationwide National Small Ifomes Demonstration program by the lumber industry in

REEL BUILDS NEW STORAGE SHED

E. G. Reel, Reel Lumber Service, Los Angeles, announces the completion of a new storage shed, 4O by 145 feet, which was constructed especially to store parcel lots of pine and hardwoods for the dealer and manufacturing trade. The new shed was erected on land purchased early this year and directly adjoins the present warehouse and office. The company now occupies 145 feet on Hooper Ave. and l7O feet on 63rd Street.

1936, Mr. Northup assumed active command of the campaign as secretary. In this capacity he coordinated all activities of the cooperating associations, whose objective was the construction of small homes. His success in this field may be judged by the continuing of the .,one year,, program throughout the last four and the incorporation of the National Small Homes Demonstration in 1939.

More recently Mr. Northup had been acting as secretary of the National Homes Foundation, a program of industry and government cooperation tending toward the stimulus of housing in the rural and farm areas.

When the National Housing Act was passed Mr. Northup acted as Lumber Industry Advisor to the Federal Housing Administration. In this capacity, he organized. a program of education instructing lumber dealers, brokers, and bankers in the numerous points of Title I and Title II.

The new secretary came to the National Lumber Manufacturers Association in 1927 as assistant to the trade extension manager and in 1935 left the Association to work with a Wall Street brokerage house pioneering in the investment market for FHA insured mortgages. Returning to the NLMA in 1936, he spent several months in charge of the NLMA San Francisco office when he was called back to Washington to become assistant secretary.

Mr. Northup served in the World War as 2nd Lieutenant in the 1lfth Field Artillery of the 29th Division.

UNITED STATES GYPSUM COMPANY

The new office building of Ross Lumber Company, Modesto, Calif., recently completed, is one of the most modern in California. Designed by Richard R. Ross, son of John P. Ross, head of this concern, the exterior presents a striking appearance with its stucco dash finish, crimson trim, large windows of blue plate glass and glass blocks. The blue plate glass eliminates the outside glare and adds to the comfort of both staff and customers.

The building is completely insulated with Palco Wool and is air-conditioned by a Frigidaire combined cooling and heating system. All the air entering the building is filtered.

California Stucco finish is used in the main office and the private office. Floors in both these offices are select plain Oak. Various types of Fir doors are used throughout the building. The counter in the main office is of solid Oak.

Air-Conditioned Office is Last Word in Comfort

The yard is built in the form of a hollow square, with lots of shed room so that there is never any congestion, and any item can be picked out without delay, each pocket being arranged for a certain size of lumber.

Particl view ol one ol the gheds.

The hardware department is office.

Indirect lighting of the most

in the lobby of the main modern type is installed throughout.

In the drafting room fluorescent lighting is used in addition to the indirect lighting. The walls of this room are finished in Redwood pattern lumber treated with gray stain. Ceiling is Fir-Tex Tile.

The customers-contractors' room has Fir-Tex planking on the walls, Fir-Tex Tile ceiling, and wood wainscoting of the company's own pattern, in three tones of Eucalyptus green coloring.

The floors in these two rooms are of No. 1 Common Oak.

The wash room has walls of blue tile and white tile on the floor.

The Ross Lumber Company's yard is at 7th and E, Streets with a frontage of more than M feet on 7th Street, runinng back over 300 feet. There is plenty of room for loading and unloading. All lumber is under cover.

The yard is entirely surfaced with oil and rock. It has its own private railroad spur, and an intercommunicating telephone system connects the office with all parts of the yard.

A complete line of lumber and building material is carried.

Mr. Ross opened this yard in 1923. He was formerly associated for many years with the Central Lumber Company, Hanford, Calif. He is the third generation of lumbermen in his family. His son, Richard, who does the architectural work for the firm, is the fourth generation. His father was a lumberman and his grandfather was in the lumber business in Pennsylvania in the early davs.

Melvin Schrader is outside salesman; Ray Keller is office manager and Miss June Rose is assistant in the architectural department.

Mr. Ross extends a cordial invitation to lumbermen who may be passing through the San Joaquin Valley to visit the Ross Lumber Company plant.

Ran Fourth Again

An old race-track tout who had spent his life following the ponies, dropped dead in the street one day, and they carried his body to the morgue. Papers on his person gave his name and address, so they phoned down to the boarding house where he lived and asked that someone come down to the morgue and identify him.

So two of his old race-horse friends went down to attend to this duty. They were told to go into the morgue and see if they could pick him out. They went in and there was a line of "stiffs" each one laid out on a slab, covered by a

They didn't know that one either. One of them went to the fourth slab, pulled down the sheet, and called to his partner:

"Ilere he is."

"Yes," said the other, sadly. "Same unlucky old so-andso. Out of the money again."

Every business ol cmy importcmce is looking lor men who work lrom the chin IIP. The earlh is littered with those who only work from the chin DOWN. T.he CHIN UP workers get prouroted without specking to the boss.

THE AI.I.PURPOSE cREATES Ao/r4lnp

Ponderosa Pine lumber has been rightfully called the most versatile of building products. The many volume uses for which Ponderosa is the logical choice, make it a great favorite with lumber dealers. It can be, and is being used successfully for every building paft .. . joists, studs, rafters, subflooring, sheathing, roof boards, siding, window frames, door frames, windows, storm sash, screens, interior and exterior doors, gma.ge doors, mouldings, door jambs, trim, cabinet work, and even flooring and ceiling. Because of this univerqal use,

WOOID THAT wrrH Pa,t/lt

Ponderosa Pine admirably sefves the requirements of the lumber dealer in furnishing the needs of his cusromers.

Ponderosa dries easily and thoroughly. It

also nails, screws, and glues well, and is easy to work. Another attribute of Ponderosa Pine is its low shrinkage factor which is practically 3o/o less than some of the heavier soft woods.

Ponderosa represents a large percentage of the stock employed in the knocked-down furniture and household equipment field.

And, of course, in the shipg{pg container market Ponderosa furnftfi*& the necessary :,:.. protection at ^ Iow cost. The light weight

reduces transportation charges, an important consideration. For paneling in old and

new interiors, Ponderosa Knotty Pine is available in a wide variety of patterns.

The important matter of proper seasoning has been worked out at Klamath Falls to the "nth" degree. From the time the logs enter the mill until the finished boards arrive at destination, this Ponderosa Pine lumber is never exposed to the elements.

THE SCREEN DOOR

The lumberman was very wise. He didn't like to "swat the flies," For dead flies always have a look When one has smashed them with a book, That isn't pleasant to be seen; And so he bought himself a screen And hinged it up before the door. "Ah, ha !" he said, "they'll come no more, No longer will I have to swatI am the wise gazabo-what?"

But just to have the screen could not Usurp the place of daily swat, IJnless, indeed, 'twas given o'er, To do the thing he'd bought it for.

Foreign Trade Convention Reiterates Position o[

Lumber as Export Commodity

Washington, August S.-Forest products have again been designated as basic exportable commodities by the National Foreign Trade Association, which urges the fostering of world trade in these products as a part of the forestry policy of the United States:

The following resolution has been passed as one of the declarations of the Association at the National Foreign Trade Convention in San Francisco, July 29,30 and 31.

Other declarations by the Convention, of interest to lumbermen, include a request that the U. S. Government assist associations of exporters operating under the Export Trade Act, and a commendation of the manner in which the Government has handled recent relationships between the United States and countries of the Far East, with particular emphasis on improvement of trade through the preservation of peace in the Pacific region.

The text of the resolutions on these three subjects follows:

Forestry: We urge continued recognition of the position of forest products as basic exportable commodities, and the fostering of world trade in these products as part of the forestry policy of the United States.

Export Trade Act: The United States Government should encourage and assist associations of exporters op-

erating under the Export Trade Act. In the face of more effective and widespread foreign buying cartels, the policy expressed in this helpful legislation should be clarified and strengthened. It is recommended that the administration of the act be transferred to the Department of Commerce.

The Far East: The Convention commends the manner in which our Government has handled and is handling the problems which have arisen in the relations of the United States with countries and regions of the Far East.

The Convention believes in the good-neigbor policy, a policy which calls for reciprocal fair treatment. It believes that the business men of the United States and of countries of the Far East would welcome, under such conditions, the conclusion of new agreements wherein each country would undertake to respect the rights and interests of the others concerned and to accord broad mostfavored-nation treatment toward enlarging trade and preserving the traditional peace throughout the Pacific region.

Wm. B. Greeley, secretary-manager of the West Coast Lumbermen's Association, was chairman of the Convention's Lumber and Timber Products group, and Wilson Compton, secretary and manager of the National Lumber Manufacturers Association, attended the Declarations Cornmittee mgeting.

Buclcle Proof Lath Co. Opens Off,ces in San Francisco

Following the rapidly increasing demand for buckleproof lath in the building industry, the Buckle Proof Lath Company, Los Angeles, has opened offices in San Francisco at 116 New Montgomery Street, with Langford W' Smith and Charles lVlorehead as district representatives.

Mr. Smith, according to Donald Y. Wemple, vice-president and general manager of the company who is in San Francisco making the arrangements, has had many years of experience in the lumber and building industry. Formerly sales manager for The Red River Lumber Company, he has for the past eight years rvorked with Northern California architects and building contractors while representing the Flexwood division of U. S. Plywood Corporation.

Mr. Morehead is well known in the building and plastering fields, having been secretary-manager of the Contracting Plasterers Association of Alameda and Contra Costa Counties and prior to that, secretary-manager for the Builders' Exchange of Alameda County.

Developed after years of research and testing by Harlow H. Hathaway and Ed Westberg, well known Los Angeles plastering contractor and president of the company, buckleproof latlt'which has been approved by Pacific Coast Building Officials Conference and meets FHA requirements is available through local dealers.

Buckleproof lath is made by passing ordinary wood lath through a machine which cuts a V groove the full length on each edge and incises both faces with r/a" long by 3/16" deep cuts across the grain. The incisions are so distributed that there are no continuous wood fibers ovet 3r/stt long. These incisions are to prevent warping when the wet plaster mortar is placed over the lath. The grooves provide a plaster key continuous along each edge of the lath.

All buckleproof lath are treated at the mill against the possibility of stain. This not only keeps the lath bright but also prevents staining through the plaster when on the wall.

Promotes Use of Port Orford Cedar

After nearly a year's sojourn in Washington, D. C., Edgar A. 'Brown is resuming promotional activities for the Port Orford Cedar Lumber Association, with headquarters in San Francisco.

Mr. Brown has a large acquaintance with architects, engineers and public officials through his long experience in promoting the use and sale of wood.

The Home Upon the Hill

Good morning, John! And how are you?

Is there something you wish us to do? Draw the plan and figure a bill

To build a house upon the hill. Well that is fine-we will do our best. We will put our figures to a test. You haven't a carpenter as yet And you don't know just whom to get?

There is George or Gus or Andy or Jess, Any one of these will do I guess. The foundation sizes. thev will be Twenty-eight by foriy-thiee.

A cellar to store your fruits and cans, And other products of your lands.

The foundation will be of concrete, Eight inches wide and two feet deep.

Proportions will be one, three and twoThe government says that that will do. One of cement, and two of sand, And three of rock, will make it grand. And then we will use a redwood sill, And creosote the termites to kill.

The joists will be of six by two, And naught but number one will do.

Sixteen inches the center will be, And brace it well, as you will see.

The subfloor will be next in line, To be covered o'er with oak or pine.

The studs will be of two bv four

To be doubled at the win<lows and doors.

At the bottom will be figured a single plate. Two at the top, to hold it straight. We will brace it well before we stop Then the ceiling joists next on top. The rafters they will then be made Of Oregon pine of the best grade. The sheeting we will make it tight For we think that this is only right. With Celotex we next will deal And line the house with vaporseal. Oh ! Yes, I've heard the salesmen tell You can use it on the roof as well, And then, along your rafter cleat, And then put on your strips to sheet. And by the makers I am told It will keep in the heat, and out the cold, The sun's rays cannot penetrate, This insulation sure is great.

Redwood siding is not dearWe will make it of surfaced clear. And it is made right from the heart, There is no sap in any part.

The shingles will be number one, We will make it good as we have begun, They have to take the sun and rain, We will only use the vertical grain. And next the floor space we'll divide In five rooms and a bath beside-

Also a dainty breakfast nook, Where you may all your breakfast cook With electric appliances from the store, The like you never used before. The living room we'll fix up fine, Also the room in which you dine, When your friends you entertain And they will be glad to call again. The kitchen then we'll handy make, So that your wife need never take An extra step her work to do As she works the morning through. A drainboard along one side, A closet small her brooms to hide.

Above, a cupboard we will make, The plates and cups and saucers to take. Below we'll fix. the best we can

To keep her kettles, pots and pans. A small cupboard here beside the stove To keep her spices and her cloves. A shelf up here, a gadget there, That reallv is no more than fair. Paint one-bedroom blue, the other rose, Two closets for to keep her clothes. A closet here for which she pines, Which we will make with Cedarline. The bath we will line with I-M Flexboard. We can make it plain or mike it scored In colors green, buff, rose or slate, The wearing quality sure is great. We will call the salesman and have him come To call on you out at your home. He will quote a price that is installed, There will be no extra cost at all. Throughout the house oak floors we'll lay, But little more you'll need to pay, Then fill and sand, a coat of shellac, A coat of varnish or some wax. It will fix it up in real style, Your wife will greet it with a smile. And Glidden's paint we will use throughout- It will be the best there is no doubt. And on the roof we will use some stain To protect it from the sun and rain. We will send it out iust as you choose So the men will havi no time to lose. We are interested in your plan And we will help you all we can Until the house is all complete, When you move in your home so sweet. When Christmas comes its joys to bring, And youths their Christmas carols sing, We hope your cup of joy will be filled With your new home upon the hill.

-A. N. Cederberg, Fowler Lumber Company, Fowler. California.

F. G. Hanson Shows lt Can Be Done

Cheap-cheaper-cheapest, seems to be the selling talk of the vast majority of firms that are trying to secure the signed contract from building contractors. Entirely too many manufacturers and retailers of building materials have lost sight of quality materials which can be sold at reasonable prices.

So it was a genuine satisfaction recently to follow through with the West Coast Screen Co., Los Angeles, and the policy they are so successfully following. First they purchase the best of materials in large quantities, paying cash and taking all discounts; second, they use the most modern machinery (many machines being especially built for them, which permits rapid production) ; third, they set a fair price including a reasonable profit for themselves; fourth, they go out and sell their products on merit-not price.

Hundreds of manufacturers and dealers selling to building contractors say this can't be done but we want to refer each and every one of them to F. G. Hanson at West Coast Screen Co., who is in a position to show them it can be done.-Reprinted from the Building Contractors' Forum.

Pabco Exhibit at Fair is Mecca for Home-Folk

Mecca for those who have built, are building, or someday hope to build their own home is the Homes and Gardens building at the 1940 Golden Gate International Exposition on Treasure Island, near San Francisco.

Here, occupying nearly an entire end of the big structure, is the exhibit of The Paraffine Cos. Inc. It is the largest representative of the building industries at the Island.

In all its exhibits, Pabco emphasizes and re-emphasizes one point important to the industry-

Home building has been modernized. Values are better. The home building dollar purchases far more than it ever did in the past.

In explanation of the significance of Pabco's exhibit, E. F. Seagrave, manager of building rnaterials, remarks:

"In tune with modern merchandising, the display proves that lumber dealers and constrttction men of today are not selling piece-by-piece homes, but completely constructed residences, ready for occupancy.

Pabco has taken three ways of visualizing for thousands of Exposition visitors the easiness with which today's home can be built.

A packaged model home revolves on a disk in front of the exhibit. and shor'vs modern conveniences and built-in features that the modern lumber dealer or construction man offers to the home-builder.

Step-by-step constructional modern homes-six of them -show the house in the various processes of being built, painted and furnished. These are enlivened by the tiny figures of painters and builders, shown in various representative poses.

The mystery in home-building is removed for the layman by showing of an animated technicolor movie with sound, which depicts steps taken by a young couple in planning and building their home. This re-emphasizes the service and personal direction given by modern lumber dealers to the home builder, and includes details of lot and design selection, construction, and financing.

"All this," according to Mr. Seagrave, "shows that the modern home is one of the few 20th century productions that is not strictly standardized. People have not accepted and will not accept mass production in home

building. If they did, homes would be sold even more inexpensively.

"But construction men have taken another way. They have standardized the essentiats-sa5hs5, doors, and the hidden features of construction. This brings down the price enormously, yet leaves design, shape, size and floor plan to the decision of the owner."

In approaching the building problem at the Exposition, Pabco has taken the vizualization method to show GGIE crowds the new utility, safety and satisfactory conditions apparent in modern building.

A giant linoleum mural, creation of Franz Bergman, Vienna artist, traces the history of building and contrasts the modern home to its prototypes.

By means of the constructional homes, a new system of creosoting foundations without danger to the workman is dramatized. Building papers, priced the same but of quality improved to the grade of an asphalt-coated roofing, are displayed. Paints more true, more durable, more decorative, make interior and exterior walls crisply new, shining, simple to clean.

"Service and quality," declares Mr. Seagrave, "is being sold with every modern home. Service and quality are the pivots of the streamlined 20th century building industry. Service and quality are the features dramatically visualized at Pabco's booth on Treasure Island-a display designed to represent Pabco dealers, the Pabco factory and the building profession as a whole."

Pope & Talbot Establighes Piling Concentration Yard Near Eugene

Pope & Talbot Lumber Co., oldest lumber manufacturers in the Northwest, has established a piling concentration yard near Eugene, Ore., which is operated under the direction of William Moores, head of the Portland piling division of the company. The piling yard serves as a point to gather piling purchased from loggers throughout the county for reshipmelt to the company's creosoting plant at St. Helens and other points.

The company has an office in Eugene which has been in operation for the past three years where it directs the rail shipments of lumber, the majority of which goes to California and Southern points. G. B. McGill is in charge of the Eugene office.

Pope & Talbot Lumber Co. is said to be the third largest producer of Douglas Fir in the world. The company has been operating in the Northwest for almost 90 years.

GHEDNIUL IUOTE!

For a practical, cheery tune, there's no instrument to beat a cash register. There's nothing like its frequent ring to soothe the balance sheet or fatten the wallet.

There's a mighty close connecion berween its cheerful note and the stocks you carry, as we can ProYe:

Take for instance the man who builds a house today. SeIl him cheap materials, and in a couple of years he has repair bills to pay. He

won't like it. and he'll tell his friends. Result: The tune's a dirge, entided No Sale.

But show him the thrifty way to buy. by cost per year of. service. sell him d,arable Diamond-H Redwood, and he'll sing your praises f.at and, near.

P. S. You can accompany his song on your favorite instrument, to a score that is written in dollar signs.
