PHILIPPINE MARKETS
 FOR AMERICAN LUMBER

Washinton, D. C., July 12-The Bureau of Foreign and Domestic commerce has issued q short mono graph on "Philippine Markets for American Lumber" by Commercial Agent Franklin H. Smith, who is Investigating the lumber trade in the Far East. The Philippine mar kat, so far as imports are concerned is dominated by American lumber. The islands provided a market for more than $5OO,OOO worth of for est products in the 12 months end cd June 30, 1914, and practically the e.Itira quantity represented by these figures was shippd from the Douglas fir mills of Washington and Oregon and the redwood mills Of California.
 Mir. Smith found, however, a sharp competition by native woods, and it is his opinion that this will inevitably become keener. Each succeeding year, he thinks, will witness an increasing cut of Philip pine woods. The conclusion reached is that the prospective demand for American lumber in the Philippines is not particularly encouraging,
