California Redwood reforestation activities in Humboldt county are well under way. as a new crop of seedlings has been started in the nursery, and at this time they are well beyond the cotyledon stage and growth is rapid. The percentage of seod vitality has been proven to be above the aver age, and with the advent of the planting season in November it is expected that two million young redwoods, beside several thousand Douglas fir. Sitka spruce and Port Ortord cedar seedlings will be ready for field planting. During the past winter the mem bers of the Humboldt Redwood Re forestation association have planted 495,650 redwood, I'ort Orford.ce daT and Sitka spruce seedlings on 21S6 acres of cut-over redwood lands. The late spring rains, to gether with the high average rain fall of this season, which was be tween 40 and 50 inches, haTe done much to assure a high survival per centage of planted stock. Sample plot studies have shown that less than 12 per cent of loss for all species has -resulted from removal and planting in the field. Rodents have not attacked tho young sprouts as seriously as during the two ex tremely dry seasons prior to this year." This is probably due to 'the fact that contrasting succulence of the yonng seedling is les3 pro nounced in comparison to the herb age in the immediate vicinity. Seeding and nursery .ork has been greatly facilitated by the use of a seeding machine, which was constructed by W. II. Wirt, superin tendent of the nursery. The ma chine can be adjusted to broadcast of drill sowing. An attached roller packs the seed firmly Into the scil. after which a Use sand layer Is sprinkled over them. The sand prevents the argillaceous soil from checking and cracking and also furnishes a light top soil through which the seedlings may easily penetrate. Weed growth also seems less pronounced In this sand cover, and DoueCIbaoll wroinlandghascby FISHING TRIP Mr. and Mrs. C. R. Clendennlng, Mr. and Mrs. A. G. Pearson, Miss Beatrice. Pearson, E, W.

Gold MONTH OF JUNE Shipments Average One Million Feet Per Day From Portland ' PORTLAND. Ore.. July 1. Ac cording to statistics compiled by the Traffic Department of the Port of Portland, exports ' lumber for the first 26 days of June amounted to 25.412.033 feet or nearly 1.000.000 feet per day., The value of this lumber exported Is $597,451. This was carried by., twenty vessels of which seven were destined to the Orient, five to Europe, two to the West Coast of South America, one to the East Coast of Soutl America and five to Australia and New Zea land. Besides this large cargoes wore shipped from points down the river. . . Shipments of lumber to the Orient during this month have been heavy. On the 2.1rd the steamer West Kader of the Oregon Oriental line cleared from Portland w,lth 3.786.528 feet of lumber valued at $77,775. On the 26th the steamer West Niger of the same line cleared from Portland with a cargo of 1.136,760 feet and from down river points with a cargo of 3. 306. CSS feet making a total cargo of more than 4.500.000 feet of lumber valued at $92,128. Several smaller shipments also have been mado during the month to the Orient. . Shipments to Australia were re sumed this month after a lull and approximately 4.000,000 feet were carried from Portland by five vessels destined for this country. The steamer West Niger carried besides this large cargo of lumber. 46 automobiles and two crates of motorcycles for Chinese and Japan ese ports. There was also Included in tho cargo, newsprint for Shang hai as well as other miscellaneous cargo for the various ports of call. June has been a busy month in arrivals of vessels from the Orient. Five vessels of the American Orient al line, the West Kader, West Niger. West Jena, West Nomentum and West O'Rowa have entered with av erage cargoes. Besides this the steamer Tolyken ' of the General Steamship Corporation Service arriv ed from the Philippines on the 19th with copra, hemp and sugar and tho Akibasan Maru of the Mitsui fleet a'rrivcd on the third with a cargo of copra and the Stockton under the management of Slruthers & Barry on the 5th with a cargo consisting of 1,000 long tons of cocoanut oil in bulk. The cargo brought by the vessels of tho Oregon Oriental line consisted of hemp, copra, sugar and dedicated cocoanut from tho Philip pines; wool, bristles, strawbraid, hides, walnut meats from China and porcelain, crockery and other mis cellaneous gdods from Japan.

SITUATION It is estimated that approximately one-fifth of California's box shook requirements had been placed by the end of May, which . means a total of something Ilka 100 million feet out of a normal demand of S00 to 600 million feet per annum. It is generally agreed that busi ness during the first five months has been done at a price approxi mately tl per thousand feet less than last aycar. On tho whole, It Is felt that good crops will be the rulo throughout the state, as the late ruins have been highly beneficial to all fruit sections, except those producing early cherries, and hurries.

Producers of shook have been eyeing with Intercut the Atlantic roast buijlnesa via the Panama canal, hut to date shipments have not been Important. A rate of 10 cents per hundred from typical producing center Is named by tht rail carriers to San Francisco Bay. to which must he added 1 1-4 cent for rehandllng and 40 cents in car load lots for steamship freight, which will land thn shook on the Atlantic coast fur a total of 62 1-4 cent per hundred. A few ship ments havo been forwarded to date, although It is felt that a lower rate to the Bay Is needed to atlmulato the business. i H. S. Marley VVVVV'rrrrr' 4.t4.4.t.4.4-TTttT.4,4l 4.
