LUMBER DEMANDS.
Article II Very Scarce on Account OF
The Big Forest Fires

Contractors report q great scarcity OF
lumber. and much uncertainty as TO the
future, This is occasloned by the great
fires In the northwest, and the unprece-
denied demand not only all over the
United States, but In foreign countries
for American lumber Now that II has
been discovered that the ants In the
Philippines win not touch American
timber, immense quantities are being
shipped TO Manila for building purpos-
es, with the prospect OF the demand
there being continued indefinitely, and
England is also in the American mar
kets for lumber. There IL a building
boom all over the country, with peo-
pie calling from all directions for build
Ing material.
A Salt Lake contractor said today
that at one west side lumber yard
where there should be at least $40 600
worth of lumber In regular stock, he
was unable the day before TO get any.
thing he wanted. The mills are "driv-
en- to death" with orders, and when
they are really able to respond. the
chances are that the railroad compan-
les are unable TO furnish the cars Pa.
ciic coast lumber is being shipped by
rail as far east as New York, and when
their cars once get down east. local
railroad companies quietly appropriate
them for local carriage TO relieve their
own necessities, and II is sometimes a
year before a through car from the
west Is returned 20 its rlghtful own
ership.
