LUMBER TRADE NOTES.
From the Pacific Lumber Trade Journal, and
NC. and p. S. Lumberman.

From the Pacific Lumber Trade Journal, and
VIC. and p. 5. Lumberman.
With good crops throughout the coun-
try generally. it seems like bad case Of
delireum tremens to see snakes or bogles
in the trade for 1908. Where the hare
times are to come from is not easy to
answer.
This is poor time for single weavers
to attempt to force recognition of their
unions. With mills shutting down all
along the line with prices unstable, the
manufacturer is not liable to listen to
any suggestions of this character. 1t is
a good deal like establishing prices on
shingles by resolution.
1t may aff,rd some consolation to the
manufacturers of red cedar shingles to
know that there will not be as many
cypress shingles manufactured this year
as formerly on account OF the recent
floods in the South. Cyprus grows in
TIE swamps, and logging will not be good
until late next fall. For this reason
cypress shingles have advanced go cents
the past so days.
Aerial logging is being advocated, and
there is no telling what the developments
may be in the near future. One system
is being successfully worked near Monte.
sano, Washington, and another one is
being presented to the consideration Of
practical men. Perhaps in time every
mill viii have elevated cables running
from their mills bringing in logs from
now inaccessible canyons and mountain
districts.
A larle number of red cedar shingle
mills have closed down temporarily on
account of over production. Although
the close down was not due to concerted
action it is hoped enough will have closed
to effect the desired result. Ii the mills
had closed down last winter The present
close down would not have been necess-
airy. Prospects are bright as far as the
demand is concerned, but the winter
output can be taken care Of.
Logging conditions on the Sound have
shown no change within the past month.
Demand and supply are about equal at
this writing. Loggers are now making
canvass OF the mills, but the results will
not be known for at least ten days yet.
Prices are the same, but firm. Everett
reports weakness in shingle logs at in
terror points, with every prospect OF a
5O.cents to 81 decline inside of a week.
Logs on the Columbia are weaker, with
a small change in current prices.

AFFAIRS IN GEORGETOWN.
Potomac Boat Club to Build House
at Cost Of $4,000.

The members of the Potomac Boat Club,
under the leadership of President John
Hadley Doyle, are endeavoring to raise
the necessary funds for the erection of a
new boat house. At a recent meeting of
the club President Doyle declared that the
need of new quarters was apparent to the
board of governors. and that the members
of the board desired an expression from
the membership as to its wishes in the
matter.
1t was the purpose of the board of gov
boat house, but this idea has been aban-
doned, as the price asked for the land
sought is beyond the reach Of the club.
With view to assisting in raising the
necessary funds arrangements have been
made for grand benefit performance to
be given the early part of next month by
members of a stock company and others.
Several committees have already been ap-
pointed to make the arrangements for the
performance. Under the present plan the
new boat house will cost $4,000 and will
be built on the most modern lines known
to the aquatic world. The present house
was erected in 1869 and was regarded at
the date named as the finest in the country
