Big Trade in Lumber. San Francisco, May 21. The growth of the lumber trade in Cal ifornia during the past year has been remarkable. Since July last there has been a steady and grow ing demand for lumber, the in crease being chiefly noted in the southern part of the state, and prices have advanced steadily. uIt beats everything," said sec retary Preble, of the Calilornia lumber exchange, in speaking of the buslqess activity since July last. "I've never seen things so lively before since I've been in busiuess here. If we had ten ships more for the trade of the coast we could use them. The mills are running with full force, on full time. The largest- mills at Tacoma and Port Blakely are turning out an average product of 450,000 feet ol lumber a da Every mun at the mills is busy working ten hours a day. Figures I bavo show that about 220,000,000 feet of lumber of ail kinds, red wood, pine and spruce, has been brought to this port since July last, but the growth of our trade here has been almost nothing as compared to tho increase of ship ments to south coast ports San Diego, San Pedro and Santa Bar bara. Up to a year ago the aver age amount sent from the north to these ports was about 40,000,000 feet, but during the year ending this month it has certainlv been near 500,000,000." plaint of thousands sufferim- from Asthma, Consumption, Coughs, etc. Did you ever try Acker's English Rem edy?
