The recent re duction iu freight rates helps most coast timber products iu reaching the Eastern market. Iu order to hold the price of lumber at the low est profitable level, progressive saw mills, such as the National Lumber & Manufacturing Co. of Iloquiam, Washington, are urging lumber denier to nnitil nut in lumlirr rnti- sutners the advantages of buying and using the shorter and cheaper graces ot lumber where possible. The National Lumber Co. points out that selling lumber is like sell ing meat. There is a certain amount oi material iu a log and there is a certain amount of meat in a steer. If the nubile refuses to linv nnvbut the choicest cuts of the beef or any thing but the clear timber out of a log, the cost must be proportion ately higher to cover the waste which is not used. Due to tltc va ried diameter and length of logs, there i3 of necessity manv short pieces, side cuts and knotty wood, all of which is perfectly satisfac tory for nianv buildintr mirunseq. Sawmills arc urging lumber dealers all over the country to point this tact out to customers and show them that bv usimr tlte.se clirnti.-r tirades of lumber. erent snvIncM cnn be made in construction costs at no Ictrlmcnt to the building. Thus, by using cverv scran of the loir, we will accomnllsh true forest con. Nervation, equalize lumber prices and encourage home building. industrial News Uureau. Mr. and Mrs. II.
