The output of lumber from the
sawmills and shingle mills, as well as
the products of l>ox and furniture
factories, and all industries using
native woods has been greater during
the present year than ever before,
and the cash for this is constantly
coming in.

has jumped from nothing ten years

those all over the United States, are
