Output of Mills of Country .Valued at $707, 095, 409, or Wlilch This State Is Credited With $23.(203,856. In the manufacture of lumber and Its products for the year 17, Oregon ranks tenth among the states, according to R PRODUCER ELKS WHO OFFICIATED AT LODGE OF V WW iC pamphlet that has just been issued .by the Department of Commerce and Iii bor on the lumber cut of the United States for last year. Washington heads the list, as the greatest lumber-producing state, while the following states are credited with a larger cut than that of Oregon! Louisiana. Texas, Mississippi, Wisconsin, 'Arkansas. Michigan, Pennsyl vania and Minnesota. For the year 1907 there were 644 lumber mills In this -state which reported the manufacture of 1.635.5tS.O00 feet. boarj measure, of soft woods, aggregating $22, 361,575 in value. The same mills for the same period submitted ligures showing the production of 4.727.000 feet, board measure, of hard woods, representing a value of J102.922. For the 12 months the state is credited with the manufacture of lath to the amount of 134.048.000 of the value of J262.434 and 206.766,000 of shingles, of the value of K76.926. Oregon Figures Incomplete. According to the report the aggregate value of Oregon's lumber products for the year was 23.2u3.8.-)6. Tiiis estimate, however, is admittedly incomplete since a great many of the mills operating in the state did not furnish the Depart ment with the reports that were re quested. It was largely on this vol unteer information that the published statistics were based. The total value of the lumber pro ducts of the United States last year is given as J707.095.4O9. distributed as fol lows: Lumber. 1S66.641.367: lath, 110,342, 705 and shingles. 130.111,337. The value of manufactured lumber and its products for 1900 was only 1414,068,487. In part the report says: The most striking feature of the statistic, for 1D07 Is that they .bow the largest lum ber production ever recorded in the United State fO.2Ti6.104.ouo. feet having a value of sil6.B41,3t7 at the place of production. Jn addition there were produced 3.0d3.O2.Hi0 lath, having a value of 110,342.705, and 11. S24, 475.00O shingles, naving a value of $30. 111,3.17, which bring the total reported- value of the lumber, lath and eiiingle production in 1!7 tip to $7i7. 005,40". If it were possi ble to secure absolutely complete statistic, of the production of lumber, lath and shin gles. It is probable that the total value of the output would have approached $750,000. Hrt, a much larger figure than that indicated for any previous year. , . Many Mills Closet! Down. The year 1907 was an abnormal one in the lumber industry. During the early part of the year many mills In the yellow pine hep. cut heavily because at that time conditions seemed to Justify em-h operations. Latfr. when the financial disturbance came, they closed uown. either, partially or wholly: but in many cages this reduction wae not suffi cient to counterbalance the Increased output earlier in the season, so that the total re ported cut for the year was greater than that for luoti. on the racific Coast, par-ti'-ulatly In Washington and Oregon, a car shortase- early in tiie yeer prevented the manufacturers from taking full advantage of the favorable condition. Then came the panic, and finally the attempt by the trans continental roti to increase freight rates, so th.t for the last two months of the year, and until recently, the lumber manufacturing Industry of that region was almost paralyzed. A xteady decline In the lumber production from year to year is taking place in the I.ake states, because of the exhaustion of the white pine supply. These condition, to gether with the greater thoroughness which chai-e.cterir.ed the 1907 canvass, all contribut ed to affect the totals re(jorted for U.e vari ous states and the various species, as shown in the succeeding tables of this pamphiet. it i not probable that the actual amount of lumber manufactured In the I'nited States in 1!'7 was much, if any. greater than that manufactured In 19u6. Previous to 18S0. the decennial census col lected Information only as to the value of the forest products manufactured In census years.

Diminishing timber resources, however, make it impos sible for thl. rate of Increase to continue much longer. The number of mill, reporting in lOOi was JS.8 per cent greater than tne number reporting In 190tt. while the total cut re ported shows an increase of only per cent. Thl. Indicates clearly the increasing effectiveness of the statistical work as the smaller mills are being reached. The aver age cut of the mills reporting for 1!')5 was 2.61S.O00 feet; that of the mills report ing for 10. 1. M77.00O feet; and that of tiie mills reporting for 1907. 1.SU5.000 feet. . Decrease In AVashlngton. The total cut in this state for 1907 was 1.635,563,000 feet, as against 1.604.S&4.0U0 feet for the preceding year, or an increase of about 31,000.000 feet. Washington, how ever, last year did not equal its record for 1906. The cut of that state last year aggregated 3.177,606,000. as against 4.305, 053,000 for the year before. Continuing, the report says: As in the tvro previous years. "Washington ranked first in lumber trbduction in 19U7 with 3.777.60B.OOO feet, though this Is a decrease of 12.3 per cent from the produc tion in 1006, due to the causes already mentioned. Louisiana ranked second as before, with a small increase, while Texas advanced from eighth place In 1008 to third place In lftOT, this advance being due. to a considerable extent, to the fact that re ports from more twan twice as many mills in that stats were secured tor 1907 as for 1000 Mississippi ranked fourth as corn- It pared with fifth for tho previous year, while SORROW Wisconsin dropped from third to fifth place. The total nut In these five states was over la.OOO.OOO.OOO feet, or almost one-third of that of the entire United States. These states are also the only ones reporting a product In excess of 2.000.000.000 feet each. Arkansas stood sixth, as In tho preceding year, while Michigan dropped from fourth p'lace in 1906 to seventh place in 1907. This Is the first time in almost 40 years that an annual cut of les than 2.000.000. oon feet has been reported from Michigan. Notwithstanding an increase of nearly 5 per cent in the number of repoJ.s received from the Lake states (Minnesota, Wiscon sin, and Michigan) in 1907. thu decrease in the reported cut was 11.7 per cent. This emphasizes strongly the constantly decreas ing lumber production of the region, t!ue to the exhaustion of the -.vhite pine supply. There was a falling off even in Minnesota, which now contains the largest amount of standing white pine timber. Classification of Sawmills. The report also Includes a classifi cation of the sawmills In each lumber producing state, according to the capacity of each plant. Oregon's 609 mills are distributed as follows: 239 having a capacity of from 50 M to 500 M; 3?7 from 500 M to 1000 M; 179. from 1000 M to 5000 M: 23 from 50.10 M to 10.000 M; 31 from 10,000 M to 25,00 AI; five from 25,000 M to 60.000 M, and five from 5 3.0o0 M to 100,000 M. , In the following- table, ' compiled from the report, is shown the compara tive value of the different kinds of lumber, lath and shingle manufactured In the States of Oregon and Washing ton in 1907: if - - -1 . 1 Quantity.

Just as long as the circulation remains contaminated with the impurities and catarrhal matters which produce the trouble, the mucous membranes or inner linings of tne body will be kept in a state of irritation and disease. Sprays, lotions and other local applications will sometimes temporarily relieve the tight full feeling in the head, buzzing noises in the ears, uncomfortable, stuffy feeling of the nostrils, and help to loosen the mucus in the throat; but Catarrh is a constitutional blood disorder and until it has been entirely driven from the system there can be no permanent cure. S. S. S. cures Catarrh by removing the cause from the blood. It attacks the disease at its head and. by thor oughly purifying and cleansing the circulation, and ridding it of every par ticle of impurity, and at the same time enriching the blood, allows the inflamed and irritated membranes to heal, improves the general health, and stops every disagreeable 63rmptom.

CASH BAIL IS ADVANCED Swindling- Scheme Said to Have Been Worked by Prisoner One That Extorted Money From Poor Women. Friends of C. K. Von . Nieda, who was arrested by the Postal Inspectors last week for conducting a get-rlch-quick swindling concern, called the Pacific Apron Company, are trying their best to keep him out of jail. When the Fed eral authorities arrested Von Nieda he called in friends and cash bail was fur nished by Fred C. Cook, a contractor, with offices In the Chamber of Commerce, with a promise that Von Nieda would be on hand and appear for a hearing before the United States Commissioner. Von Nieda's friends also said they would furnish a security bond, but the security bond has not been given. The promise is made that he will be brought before the Commissioner for a hearing this morning. Von Nieda's swindling scheme is said to be one of the worst that has been brought to light in the history of the city. His victims. Judging from the hun dreds of letters he was receiving, were vall poor women, or young girls who had to work for a living. On the day lie was arrested, something like 300 letters were held up by the postal authorities and fully 90 per cent of the letters contained the dollar demanded by Von Nieda. Not only are Von Nieda's friends trying to keep him from, going to Jail, but they are actually trying to have the case dropped under the promise t.iat he will Quit the business. Just how many thousands of poor wofnen have been duped by Von Nieda, through his swindling scheme will never be known. His offices were two small rooms on the ninth floor of the Marquam building. His office force consisted of two girls who spent all of their time opening the 'hundreds of letters he re ceived as a result of his advertising in the East, and sending 6ample aprons to his victims. Von Nieda's scheme was to fleece his victims out of a dollar under the guise that he was to pay them $3.60 a dozen-for aprons that could be bought in any store for about 9 cents. For the dollar? the woman would get a sample apron and when she had finished the apron it was to be sent to htm for in spection and correction. Of course the aprons were never sewed correctly and were sure to be sent back. A second trial was given and when, the apron was rejected a second time, which was a certainty. Von Nieda kept the dollar. He even demanded return stamps with every communication. The letterhead used and the wording of the letter used by Von Nieda as a come-on is cleverly written and would create an Idea that his was a large and flourishing business. INDUSTRY BEFORE ETHICS Walter Thomas Mills Says Eco nomic Problems Come First. In his introductory address yesterday afternoon, in the Masonic Temple, on "Ethical Aspiration and Economic Need,'' Walter Thomas Mills pointed out the fact that until the economic problem is solved, man can never have that leisure for stuuy. which is essential to the solu tion of ethical problems: that conditions in society today are such that the mass of the people are unable to appreciate the great works of art which were created to add to the good of the world. Said Mr. Mills: "The first problem for the man who would make this a beautiful world is an industrial problem; not an ethical Oregon. Washington. Quantity. I M.
