GOVERNMENT INVESTIGATES The
LUMBER INDUSTRY.
Department OF agriculture Declares
That Odd Lengths Will Bring d
Saving of 2.O7 per Cent in Finished
Product. Makes Lengthy Report
on Subject.

That there is a saving of at least
2.07 per cent. to the lumber manu-
factureer who cuts his timber at odd
lengths is the statement OF a bulletin
issued by the United States depart
of agriculture.
"The National Lumber Manufacture
ers' Association" says the document,
"adopted resolutions in 1909 in favor
of the manufacture of odd lengths of
flooring, ceiling, drop and bevel sid
ing, finish partition and moulding.
The leading manufacturers of the Pa
cific coast have gone step farther
and put the resolution into effect
"These resolutions have prompted
the Forest Service of the department
of agriculture TO investigate the effect
they might have in saving waste in
lumber manufacture Statistics gath
cred on the Pacific coast and in the
yellow pine regions of the south,
show that the manufactur of nothing
but even lengths results in a waste
of material and that considerable
saving can be effected by cutting odd
lengths.
"Under conditions that prevail up
on the Pacific coast the making OF
Ouu leHSl luS Will lllCiS case tliC Outp"'
of the different classes of products
considered, by 2.07 per cent. and this
saving will come from material here
tofore wasted.
AN inquiry into the yellow pine
region covering both shore-leaf and
long-leaf yellow pine lumber, shows
that a similar saving can be effected
in the south.
"The investigation was limited to
flooring, ceiling, siding, finish, mold
ing and partition material. The per-
centage which it is possible to save,
therefore, is based on that part or
the sawmil1 output that goes into
these products"
. The circular then shows by table
the average amount lost by not cut
ting odd lengths and in another table
shows the possible saving by trim
ming to odd lengths in the planning
mill only. Continuing it says:
"Estimating the planning mill prod
ucts at % per cent of the total out
put of yellow pine, the figures obtain
ed in this study indicate that approXi-
mately 30,000000 feet of planning mill
material might be saved annually by
manufacturing odd lengths in both
saw mill and planning mill. AT $50
thousand the value of this material
is 100000.

TELEPHONE COMPANY RUSHING
IMPROVEMENTS.
Installing Underground Cables for
the Business District While New
Office Building Is Now Being Con-
Sidered. Will Spend 100000 on
Work.

Including the laying of underground
cables in the business districts of the
city; the enlargement or entire re-
construction OF the present office
building; the installation of a COM
plete new switch board system of the
latest pattern and extensions in out
lying districts, the Pacific States
Telephone & Telegraph company has
laid plans for the next year which
call for an expenditure of close to
100000 and when completed will have
resulted in practically the entire re-
building of the equipment.
At present the most important fea-
ture is preparing for the underground
wires down town, which will remove
all the overhead cables and not only
better the appearance of streets and
alleys but remove an ever present OBJ
structiOn in fire fighting.
The main underground conduit,
which will be laid in the alley be-
tween Wishkah and Market streets,
will carry twelve 600 pair cables ca
pable of caring for 1900 subscribers.
From this big conduit will radiate
smaller ones through the various al
leys completely covering the district
bounded by the Wishkah and Chehalis
rivers and Market and l. streets. In
the middle of each block in the alleys
sufficient wires will be brought to the
surface to accommodate subscribers
in that block and radiating from a
distributor bolted to the wall of a
building, will eliminate even a single
pole or other obstruction. In build
ings where there are sufficient sub
scribers to warrant, the distributor
will be inside the structure
This work was started July Is and
under the direction of Foreman H. e.
Mitchell is being so rapidly pushed
that it is expected to be completed
1t will more than triple the capacity
by September 20.
of the service.
But these additional wires along
with the new switchboard which has
been ordered, calls for more space
than the present office building can
take care of and so word is expected
daily arranging either for enlarging
the present structure or the erection
of a new home. In either event the
building would be two stories in
height providing for the hello girls"
on the second floor. AS the new
switch board which is expected short
ly, will take about six months to in
stall, it is expected that orders toward
remodeling or rebuilding will be re-
ceived in the near future as it is the
aim to have all improvements com.
pleted within year or fourteen
months.
Since the arrival of Manager L. G.
Mcclellan in Aberdeen, February 1,
this city has been securing improve
ments in proportion to other points
just as speedily as material could be
secured from the over-rushed manu-
featuring plants in the east. Over ST.
900 was spent by the company alone
in doubling the capacity of the local
switchboard a few months ago. al.
though it was known at that time
that the enlarged board would not be
in use over Is months, when it would
be supplanted by the new equipment.
About $2,700 will be expended soon
in South Aberdeen when next month

TO repair bridge
COUNCIL CALLS FOR BIDS ON
WOODEN STRUCTURE.
SuCCe SSfui Bidder Must Guarantee to
keep Bridge in Repair Three Years.
Bluff Road Opposed. Buy Park Site
for $1,000. Other Business at
Council Session.

North Aberdeen bridge matters,
the road around the bluff and other
expedients to offer the people Of North
Aberdeen relief, were discussed at
the regular meeting of the city coun-
Gil last night, and the matter was fin
ally settled for the time being by in
structing the city clerk to advertise
for bids for the repair of the North
Aberdeen bridge. The vote on this
question came after a long discus
sion in which nearly every council
man and several of the spectators
and the Mayor had taken liberal
part. Hits. chairman of the street
committee, has all along been con-
sistent supporter of the plan to repair
the bridge and last night made the
declaration that the bridge could be
repaired and placed in condition to
last at least three years for between
$25OO and $4,000. On motion of Coun-
Gilman Crivyea, the clerk was in
structed to advertise for bids, the
motion being adopted by the follow
ing vote: Ayes-Crivyea, Hits,
Myles, O'Hare, Parks, Quackenbush;
noes-Bailey, Elder, Ingram. Before
the vote was announced, Councilman
Ingram succeeded in having an
amendment tackled on to the call for
bids, which will provide that the sue
cessful contractor must guarantee the
bridge for three years.
During the discussion of the bridge
matter the proposed road around the
bluff was talked over and as many
different opinions expressed as there
were men who addressed the meet
ing. Property owners from the North
Side declared that they would be sat
isfied with nothing less than a steel
bridge.
Next Years Finances.
The finance committee reported,
giving the total amount OF probable
income for the coming year and also
the total probable expenses for the
maintenance of the city government.
This showed that the revenues OF the
city including the sum OF $sS.75O from

building The condemnation of the re-
mainder of the block will mean that
E. o. Hall, the Hawaiian Trust Com
pany and some other businesses will
have to move, while Castle & Cooke
will not be able to occupy the offices
they have leased in the Cummins block.
The extension of Bishop street and the
consequent closing of Union street will
provide added business space and afford
an opportunity for the elected firms to
move to new quarters to be LOCATED
along the new street.
The proposal to extend Bishop street
to Beretania was made by Superintend-
ent Campbell in his report to the last
legislature, but nothing was done at
that time. 1t was the intention of the
public works department to have the
matter brought up again at, the next
regular session of the legislature, but

brought about condition which de-
mands that action be taken at once. /,
Acting Governor Mott-Smith states

Tives him authority to institute con-
