TO SHUT DOWN
planning Mill

r. II. Mccoy, vice president and the
general manager of the Bonners Ferry
Lumber Company, stated yesterday
that the night shift in the planning mill
of the company would be discontinued
today. Orders for lumber have fallen
off greatly the past few weeks and
this is the reason for cutting out the
night shift.
Work on the construction of the
buildings at Camp 81 in the Porthill
district, is progressing nicely and a
crew will be placed at work in this
camp In the near future
Manager Mccoy states that his COM
pany will not, in the future, hire mem
bers of the l. w. w. He takes the
position that his company may as we'll
suspend operations as to try to deal
with members of an organization who
are avowedly determined to cripple
production by failing to do anything
like an honest days work while in the
woods and by striking on any kind of
pretext. In this connection Mr.
Horribly, manager of the Dover mill
recently stated to the Standpoint Com
mercial Club that few years ago it
was considered that an average ium-
herman should produce not less than
luOu ltSl VI luIHDeT udlly Wnlle now

The labor situation in the lumber

cripple production for the larger com
panies are putting in machinery with
which logs may be handled with fewer
men. The Boomers Ferry Lumber
Company has been experimenting with
a 55 horse power ten ton Holt cater
pillar at Camp 90 and this machine is
doing the work of 80 horses and sew

in skidding work most successfully
and second machine has been order

OF the county on reasonable terms and
that he and the institution he repre-
sents is ready to assist in any manner
