"Everywhere I have visited, I have found conditions vastly im proved and business men greatly encouraged.'

Demand tor lum ber and other products of mill and factory in the . northwest is in creasing with the result that more men are being employed; " ' "The current General Petroleum! campaign on behalf of Its new General Four-Star gasoline- gives us the right to be optimistic over present -trends.
