The old, adage, "Far autay fields seem' tlte greenest" is neuer rnore true than it is tod,ay.

We read, zuith a great ded of i'nterest thal lapan erpects to use 250,0W,000 feet of Douglas Fir i,n tke nert SIX XIONTHS. Prob.ably euery nea(rspaper in tlce United States prints this as an i,mportant news item. We learn that Secretary Hoover has tahen immediate stefs to guard, against undue price raising. The shdp ow'ners are figuring as to just what efrect this is going to have on tonnage and, the millman is probably ?ylng awahe nights tryrint to figure out sovne wa\ to triple or quadruple his output.

TWO HUNDRED AND FIFTY MILLION FEET /N.'/X MONTHS.

Sounds aery impyessizte doesn't it, and still ri,ght tlozan in Southern Coli,fornia zue haae the "know kow city" of Los Angeles tlmt consurnes fractically one hundred. and, fiftt mi'llion eaery month. No, we did, not sa,y euery sin months, we said EVERY MONTH.

This is not broctdcasted by all tlte nabsbabers as ,i.mportant maas. Secretarnt if oover takes 'ni ifeps regarding same and still Los Angeles stand,s today as tke most consistont and greotest consilrner of Douglas Fir in, the utoild.

When she stol>s buying prices drop; vessels are tied up; the shiltpi,ng ind,ustryt' is ltaraly'zed.; ma,ny sawrynills in Oregotr, and lVash.ington are cornpelled to close doum and it really becomes a tragedy.

Los Angeles, zve like you, rile admire you and zae are free to conf ess thqt we would haae- a hard, time getting along witlrcut you, so for pity's sake DON'T STOP BUYING.
