' Anticipating an increase of from

freight rates ; on August 26, lumber
buyers are hastening to place orders
for fall 5 and ;. winter ; supplies. Ac
cording to the weekly bulletin of the
West ; Coast Lumbermen's ; associa
tion the mills of Western Oregon and
Western Washington tok on dur
ing the past week the greatest vol
utAef of business recorded since the
first week In April. ;j ; .
Orders accepted by the mills exceeded
production 5 per' cent and were 13 per
cent greater than shipments. . Cars for
lumber loading continue! scarce and
there is no evidence - of! the rush of
empties to the Northwest, so widely ad
vertised by railroad officials. ;
CABS STILL SHORT j
The number of cars isupplied con
tinues at about 30 per cent of the ac
tual requirements, according to the
bulletin. ' . s L
Association mills participating in the
report produced 75,069,646 feet of lum
ber for the week ending August 7. The
same mills took on 78.490,612 feet of new
business and shipped 68,457,790 feet of

SEW FREIGHT .KATE j
The new freight rate effective August
26 provides for an increase, of 25 per
cent to points west of the Rocky moun
tains and 33 1-3 per cent to points east
of the Rockies. It was intended by the
Interstate Commerce commission as an
emergency orde subject! to revision; by
subsequent tariffs to be, filled by car
riers, j ; .. , ;
The tariff as it now stands creates
a freight differential against the west
coast lumbermen and in favor of the
Southern pine lumbermen, amounting to

PORT OIlFOItD VHITE CEDAR f
. SHIPMENTS" SETTING BIARK
Marshfieldr; Augt 14. Shipping of iPort
Orford white cedar lumber of all kinds
from: Coos county has reached greater
proportions than ever before. Cedar lum
ber has always been ; in demand foci
snipDUiiains ana oilier purposes dug now
there are many other uses and the cedar
is being, taken out in smaller pieces.
The use of .white cedar for plates In
automobile battery boxes is creating a
big demand. The . manager of one mill
states that he could sell his entire! out
put for : this purpose. As the battery
plates are small the cedar can be used
ia short pieces and much of the wood is
being taken out of 'the: woods In short
bolts. Many small camps bave sprung
up In all parts of the county where
cedar is cut by hands and hauled out.
The price is such that it warrants
logging in places where : there is only
a limited amount of the cedar and
taking it out by hand. Many such tracts,
which are not sufficiently lage tot war
rant putting in logging, machinery, are
being made productive, and are paying
good "profits to the operators. ; : -
The Japanese have been buying a good
deal of cedar for airplane purposes; . One
mill gave an - option for its entire out
put to a Japanese firm. The cedar must
be clear but when of the quality de
sired it Is faid that the Japanese want
It regardless of what may be the price
t r
.William
demanded, j Cedar stumpage has there
fore gone up high in price.
There is also a demand for cedar poles,
ties and piline and much of thi cl,-?
of timber ijs being taken out. -As the
cedar never rots that whicti is puruy
burned and on the ground can be used
for Borne purposes -and cedar which has
been down for half a century in many
cases is being manufactured into, sale
able products. y
Ranchers ( who' have a' few cedar trees
and smalt tracts are being operated and
several hundred men are engaged In
the county ; at high wages in the small
camps alone, cutting cedar besides that
which comes from the i regular logging
camps. '..;.!;. J .-.' h
Port Orford white cedar is found-only
In southern Coos and i northern . Curry
county and not being obtainable in any
other part of the world ithe demand has
become greater than the supply.;
