WOOD FAMINE PERIL OVER
ABUXDAXT FCEIi COMES FROM
EASTERN SECTION'S.
Cars Loaded With Sawed Timber
.Make Dally Runs From the Large
Logging Camps.
There will be little damage of a wood
famine In Portland next Winter, Judg
ing from the amount that Is coming
into the city each day from Eastern
Multnomah and Clackamas Counties
over the O. W. P. line. At nearly a
dozen points on the road from two to
six cars are loaded every day, con
stituting a regular woodrtraln of
nearly 20 cars, each holding 15 cords
of the best split fir.
Probably the largest single enter
prise in wood is that undertaken by
J. M. Moore, of this city. He recently
bought a large tract of land near
Gresham. about 12 miles southeast
from Portland and expects to cut and
ship nearly 100,000 cords of wood be
fore the timber Is exhausted. It Is re
ported that he has 25.000 cords down,
the present Fall and is now shipping
two rarloads a day from Lunieman
Junction. He will Increase this amount
as soon as he can get men and teams
to do the work.
Now that the many small sawmills
of that section have begun to go out
of business for want of good timber,
the remainder of the forests will be
made into cordwood as rapidly as pos
sible. Formerly nothing but the best
of fir was cut into wood, but now
everything goes. Including down tim
ber, maple and alder, all of which sells
at a good figure.
