ABERDEEN", Wash., Jan. 10. fSpe-
lal.) All previous records for Grays
Harbor's lumber output were smashed
In 1917 when 120.500.000 worth of wood
products were shipped from the county.
The export of lumber totaled 1.100.000.-
000 feet. The value was $3,500,000
greater than that of any previous year
and the shipments were 300,000.000 feet
eavier.
Rail shipments amounted to to5,800.-
100.000. estimating the value of the con
tents of each car at $600. In tho year
Zi.tTO cars were dispatched.
The cargo shipments, approximately
293.lZa.00U feet, moved In 37$ vessels
and were valued at $4,500,000.
Mills Taxed e Capacity.
Never have the Grays Harbor mills
and camps enjoyed such prosperity as
during the past 13 months. For the
most part mills were taxed to their
limit and during midsummer were
forced to turn down many big orders.
Camps had all they could do to produce
enough logs for the mills.
The record shipments of 1917 were
made despite the fact Ahat most of the
mills were closed (oyiwo months by
strikes and that cars were frequently
unobtainable and steamers far short of
the demand for water tonnage.
Boom timea for tha lumber industry
will last for not less than five years,
more probsbly for 10 or 15 years. Grays
Harbor mlllmen predict. Aa long as
the war lasts they expect to be kept
busy with Government orders, especial
ly In the cutting of spruce for airplanes
and nr for shipyards.
BaUdlng ta Be Resumed.
When the war Is over the farmers
and city folk, now kept from building
by the limiting of shipments out of the
timber districts for other than Govern
ment use. will be able to resume build
ing operations throughout the country.
Then. too. there will be the rebuilding
of Belgium and France, which will
bring big orders to the Southern pine
loggers and result In largely eliminat
ing them from the domestic field.
Onshore shipments t the Hawaiian
Islands, Australia. New Zealand and
South America ought to show great Improvement-
. A shortage of tonnage has
greatly hindered shipments to these
countries. This is shown by the fact
that less than one-third the vessels
cleared Grays Harbor with lumber for
offshore Pacific porta since the war
that carried lumber there In ante-bellum
days.
