Portland, Ore.-After two years of
extreme sluggishness, the lumber mar
ket has improved during the last two or
three months at steady pace until it
is today better than at any time since
1907, when the lumber manufacturers
of the Pacific northwest were selling all
they could produce at good prices and
profits, according to statistics compiled
by the Lumber Manufacturers associa-

dollars are placed in circulation every

Railways Order Ties.

The railroads are placing large orders
for ties and other material for construc-
ton and cars, and the foreign markets
show splendid activity. Europe has
bought several cargoes here already this
year, and number have been placed
for early delivery, while Australia.
China, the west coast of South America
and South Africa, too, have bought
larger quantities the last three months
than in any like period for a number
of years.
Values have stiffened until they are
now on a profit paying basis, whereas
SIX months ago many of the mills were
operating at a loss
China Seeks Oregon Fir.
From China comes the news that the
government there is urging the rebuild
ing of cities laid partly in ruins during
the recent revolution, and this is ex
pected to further increase the demand
for Oregon fir, the Chinese having found
1t the most suitable material for their
purpose, especially where it enters into
heavy construction.
The greatest difficulty confronting the
mill men and lumber dealers TODAY is
the scarcity of vessels available for
oH-shore cargoes, and there is some
danger OF car shortage when the grain
crops begin moving.
Some operators have felt tempted to
operate double shifts in order to hasten
the filling of orders, but there is a gen
eral sentiment against this among the
manufacturers, as it presents the dan
ger of overproduction of the lower
grades of lumber, for which the demand
Is never as keen as for clears.
