OUR LUMBER TRADE.
to Immense Proportions, Espe-
cially Our Foreign Trade.

THE Lumber Trade of the United
States is the title of monograph just
issued by the treasury bureau of sta
tistics. The lumber industry and
trade, it finds, has within quite recent
years changed from small scale of
production to one in which machinery,
large outlay of capital and a far
sighted policy of development of prop
critics are becoming controlling factors.
This change is due partly to the growth
of domestic demand and partly to the
fear of prematurely exhausting our
timber resources. The existence of
surplus capital looking for new fields
of investment has had tendency to
eliminate the small-scale lumberman;
and the policy of European states in
rigidly limiting the annual cut of lum-
Der to something like the rate of in
crease in the growth of forest has
forced European lumber-consuming
interests to come to the United States
and Canada, especially for hard woods
and lumber for building purposes. AS
result, the foreign lumber trade of
>-AS - AAAeSN SeoSSs haS loN SiAO1 dlous-
~. Within quite recent years it has de-
veloped from local to a world wide
commercial movement.
In the foreign trade, the Atlantic
ports, the gulf ports and those on the
Northern Pacific coast have shared
most literally. More lumber is now be-
ing shipped from these ports and from
the country as whole than at any
previous time in the history of the
country. The total exports of timber
lumber and manufactured wood for
the fiscal year ended June 80, 1900
amounted to $5O,59S.416. Imports OF
corresponding products, however
amounted to 1851, 90S, showing bal
ance of almost exactly $30,000,O00 OF
exports of this class over imports.
About half of these imports come from
Canada, consisting mainly of planks,
boards, logs and shingles as the four
principal items. Another principal fea.
ture in our timber imports is the tropi
cal timber, including Cuban mahogany
and cedar, Mexican mahogany and
cedar, and mahogany from Central and
South America and Africa.

benefactOrs OF this business stimulant
Is labor There will be a great deal
OF extra labor occassiUned by the tour
nament and IL ought TO be the aim OF
the people TO keep as much money
resulting therefrom at home as pos
sble. Take the hotels as an example.
The various hotels and boarding
houses will call for a hundred walters.
Where are they TO be had? Shall the
hotel keepers be allowed TO 80 outside
OF town and hire help or will the boys
and girls Of the city come In and take
the money! A hotel keeper said 10
