he did before this trip.
Early in the present year, the Mount
Hood Lumber company, with paid uE
capital stock Of 100000, purchased the
saw mill interests of the Lost Lake Lum.
Der company. The statement was then
made to the Glacier that the new com.
pany intended to run the mill. To make
this assertion good, the company appro-
priated $4,000 for improvements in the
stream of Hood river, which would make
log driving possible, and insure a con-
slant supply of logs to keep the saws OF
the big mill busy. That was six months
ago. Since then hundreds OF big boul-
ders have been blasted from the river,
and at points along the stream where
the water had tendency to seek two or
three channels, "cribs" have been built,
forcing the water into one channel and
preventing the logs from piling high
and dry upon the bank. These cribs,
put in for an experiment, have proven
great success, and more are to be
made next year. There we're many
doubts as to the practicability Of float
ing saw logs down Hood river, but all
these have been dispelled, and the big
boom in the Columbia river has been
collecting logs every day since the freshet
early in November.
The logging activities of the mill COM
pany are confined just now to bunch Of
red fir timber between the East and West
forks of Hood river, about 15 miles
southwest Of town. Splash dams have
been built, one in each fork of the river
at this point. These dams are opened
once d day and start flood sufficient to
carry what logs that have been placed
in either stream down to the main river,
where there is force enough to take the
logs on down to the mouth of the river.
Both horses and donkey engines are en-
ployed in hauling the logs to the edge
of the bluff, where they are rolled into
a chute and started on lightning trip
to the water. On the East fork there
is chute 500 feet in length, the lower
half being almost level, and logs weigh
ing half ton side down this dry flume
in less than five seconds. Wouldn t
care to ride astride one, ,wou Id your.
Skid roads are made wherever it is
handler to use horses in dragging out
the logs from the timber, but these are
not necessary when the 20-horse power
donkey engines are employed. These
engines are capable of pulling with
halfa mile Of cable. By means of relays,
it is thus possible to get logs to the riv-
er from timber several miles distant.

OZONE FOR SKYSCRAPERS.
How Fresh Air Is Supplied In the
Modern Tall buildings.

Modern Tall buildings.
Hundreds of men and women are
boxed up all day long in little cages
on every floor of the modern Office
building Yet this mass of huddled
humanity never suffers from any lack
of fresh air. The ventilation is per.
feet, fact which often surprises for
eign architects.
The delivery Of fresh air into a sky
scraper is as big a busiess as the de-
livery of water or electricity. 1t is not
left to chance. Cold fresh air is forced
into the building by blowing engine
and passes through large ducts and
controlling registers to the different
rooms. In winter this air is heated
by passing through coils of steam
pipes.
Often the blower is arranged to de-
liver both hot and cold air, and the
ducts are provided with mixing valves
which can be set to combine the two
blasts in any required proportion
Thus one can have fresh air of exact
ly the temperature called for by the

lead to large common outlet above

the upper parts Of the corridors by

A sight well worth the days trip was
log jam in the narrows above the
falls of the West fork. When the heavy
rains came the fore part of last month,
more logs had been turned into the river
than sudden rise could take care of,
and jam was the result. Mr.. Early
said that the first day after the jam
formed there were 100000 feet of logs
in the gorge. Logs 40 feet in length
were standing upright. 1t was a
solid mass of logs for a quarter of a
mile, and was wonderful sight. But
to Mr.. Early it would have been more
welcome scene had the logs been col
ected in the boom at the mouth of the
river.

two very competent foremen, Charley
Smith and W. G. Sloat.

TIMBER INDUSTRY
OF HOOD RIVER

The lumber industry in Hood Rive
has hardly made a beginning 1t il
truly in its infancy. Ask any one wha
is the leading industry of the valley ,ant
few people would hesitate to say it il
fruit growing. Well and good, for more
people are directly concerned with fruit
growing than anything else, yet with &
quarter million dollars coming into the
valley each year from the sale of straw.
berries, cherries and apples, this sun
within year or two won't represent one
half or even one-quarter of the income
derived from the lumber sales. Fruit
growing, rapid as will be the increase in
carload shipments of strawberries and
apples, within the next five years, and
large as will be the money returns, will
then have to be clas1ed as an industry
second in importance, and that for
years to come.
This may seem surprising without an
explanation. But if the big sawmill Of
the Mount Hood Lumber company, over
near the boat landing, should be kept
running night and day and Sundays
with capacity to turn out 100000 feet
OF lumber every "a hours, or total OF
$500, 900 feet in 1866 days, the present
managers of the company would have
given way to others long before the last
stick of timber north of Mount Hood
could be sawed into lumber. The sup
ply of saw-timber tributary to Hood
Hood river is by no means inexhausta-
Bile, but the possibilities haven't been
calculated to nicely yet, and suffice
to say that the lumber industry is soon
to add hundreds of thousands OF dollars
to the aggregated bank accounts of the
people of Hood River.
The Glacier editor knew there was a
large body of timber on the headwaters
of Hood river, but he never fully real
lied what an enormous amount there is
of it, nor what vast sums of money il
represents, until last Saturday, when in
company with Charles T. Early, super
intendent of the Mount Hood Lumber
company, he was driven to the logging
camps above Winans, and there saw for
himself what is being done, and learned
in conversation with Mr., Early some-
thing of the numbering possibilities Of
Hood River valley. This was the first
time he saw logging operations on an ex-
tensive scale, and he knows more than
