Cheap home for employ of Indus
trial plants i another proposal of Com
missioner Jotin M. Mann In connection
v.Hh the contemplated channel an& man
u acturin? - establishments at Colurabja
elough. Commissioner Mann ? plana to
condemn not only sitea for the channel
an4 Industrial establishments, but con
tiguous property to be offered o em
gloves for homes, the land to be. either
leased at low rates or fold for the pur
chase price, on terms. The city would
agree to . Improve the . property, lay
street and sewers, and prosecute other
public works to male the , site into a
small city of Its own, the commissioner
believes. The worker, however, must
agree to build homes on the site leased
or purchased.
, Much of the property is now unavail
able for- use by private owners, and
some unfit for Industrial sites. Commis
sioner -Mann . states. Part, of the con
tiguous territory is covered by water,
which the city would redeem for home
sites. Some is too high for industrial
plants, and this he shows, could be con
verted into excellent property for homes.
The 'city, the commissioner asserts,
would not spend a cent except in main
tenance ef public works, the original cost
to be. covered by assessment and the
property condemned would be paid for
by to purchaser.
Corns! lasioner Mann expects to make
the proposal for home sites part of the
entire slough plan.

Prices on" all grades of western lum
ber have advanced from 91 to $2 per
100Q since May 1, according to I A- Nel-
son, secretary .of the West Coast Lum

manufactured by mills ef the West
Coast association has advanced S3 per
1000 feet and manufacturers declare
that still further advances In price must
be looked for. r -
Ralph Burnside, president ef the Wil

president of the West Coast associa
tion, states that his mills in common
with the majority of the mills of the as
sociation, have bees operating at a loss
for several months. The rise In price

advances in price must be made before
they will make a profit. -

of fir and larch of No. grade r bet
ter and a similar rise for Idaho and
western white pine of No. 2 grade or

suming large proportions, especially In
the territory of the Southern Pine as

vanced from 93.60 to 14 per day during

only slight sins of wear."
This experience is not accidental.
It results from the scientific process
