Tlie White Pine Lumber Company's
new mill on Swan Lake will soon be
gin operations. It will have a daily
capacity of 50,000 feet, working one
shift.
Hood River, Ore., August 3.
Though the strawberry crop is only
about GO per cent of last year's in
volume, it is expected that the higher
prices being paid this year will bring
a greater total return for the crop
than ever before.
If Oregon merchants would see to
it that 2 5 per cent of their stock was
made in Oregon, there would not be
enough workmen in the state to make
the products. The result would be
more workmen, bigger payrolls and
more business for everybody in the
state especially the merchants.
More Hood River apples will be
exported than sold in the domestic
market this year, in the opinion of
the Hood River agent of a London
fruit company. The English apple
crop, he says, is only about 25 per
cent of normal, which condition will
force the export market to high lev
els. North Bend, Ore., August 3. The

District Manager Cronk of the Tum-A-I.uni Lumber Company states that he is work
ing on List No. U. which is the third and latest decline in Iiimkr prices this year.
Manager Crunk says that much building is being talked (if this year, but that shortage
of cars and workmen may delay fall building until bad weather unless early actions
taken and building plans arc not left till the last minute as is usually the case.
Contractors in Hcppncr, Lexington and lone are already busy and have much work
ahead in same cases.
Almost certain advances in lumber p rices and scarcity of labor will make the "Last
Minute" builder wish he had planmd and started earlier.

Here's the Secret
Of that wonderful "round" tone
On hearing The Brunswick for the first
time every music lover exclaims at its
wonderful full, round, life-like tones.
Back of the grill is the secret an
oval horn built entirely of wood on
the violin principle. Sound waves are
amplified and sent out to the listener
in correct acoustical "circles." No
metal touches them. That's the secret!
