Drive Of Lumber Men Of Coast Is Having Results

The drive of Pacific Coast lumbermen in their campaign to stimulate sales in the Pennsylvania districts is repbrtid 'to have taken on a big aspect fbr the port of philadelphia.

The establishment there of direct iales and the eitension of the New York office to the Philadelphia district, it is stated, bids fair to double the normal movement oi lumber this fall. The major portion of the lumber cargoes is being handled at the Philadelphia Tidewater Term"inal and the facilities there are being prepared for a heavy straih during the next ferv weeks,- Ten-charters have beeir made recently at Vancouver to carry lumber to Atlantic coast- ports, as shippers find the full cargo rates more attractive than conference tariffs. Parcel lots are going on the regular liners in small quantities: the movJmen"t in canned fruits and fish, being more desirable freight, receives the preference in mosi cases.

FIRE-FIGHTING INTERRUPTS FOREST RESEARCH IN CALIFORNIA

The increment borer, diameter tape, hypsometer, psychrometer, hygrothermograph, and other implements and appliances of the forest research man's outdoor laboratory were laid aside this summer for the more prosaic implements of the forest fire-fighter, according to Silviculturist

S. B. Show, who is in charge of the research activities of the United States Forest Service in Cdifornia- All the research men lvere at one time or another called upon to assist in maintaining the fire-lines uPon the large fires that resisted all efforts of ttre forest workers to subdue them during most of the summer. This has been by far the worst fire season that the California forests have evdr knou'n, u'ithin the years covered by the Forest Service records. From the very beginning of the 6re season in the West this year conditions have been abnormal, growing steadily worse as the summer season advanced. California has suffered hardest and longest, the worst fires not coming under control before the last weeks of September-' Ever)' available member of the Forest Service. of other bureaus of the Department of Agriculture, and even men from other Government departments have lent their active service on the fire-line. Forest Service men sav that the situation in California this year has presented the hardest problem in fire control that they have ever faced.
