UIIUI INOUTPUT OF LU MB ED Both Pine and Fir Mill Overstocked; Expect Price Reaction By C C. CROW Editor Crow's Pacific Onaet Lnmber Digest i Reprinted from the Oregonian) There have been but tew times In the history of tbe Pa cific northwest when winter weather baa broiicht the lumber Industry to ao complete a stand out as hs bei'n ejporleuced dur ing the past week. Mills in the Portland district tin:' "uvr close unless operating c ndltlons become extremely bad have had to bow to tbo will ot Boreas, and until such a time aa the freetiug temperatures pass, this situation rsn be cii--- I to - inue. The sawmills hsve been In convenienced more by frosen logs and ire than by snow, but with the additional snow which has piled i:p t the woods this week, ivu th most favorably aituated logging camps are idle and it -.lire several days of com paratively warm weather to make it possible for a majority to get under l again. While having no sufik'. nt foundation aa yet to justify con- strui..g as a permanent trend. prices on some classes of busi ness, particilsrly spetlsl cutting orders, hsve hsd a tendency to advance. This is not on account of any lnrr in the volume ot new placements but it Is the re sult rf anxiety ot buyers to z-n tardy orders on the books of some of the tew concerns that are In a poeltlon to get them out. The psychological effects of tbe tleup are very good on the consuming end of the business. Numerous wires have gone out from western Oregon and Wash ington lumbermen recently to their customers, advising of the storm and their Inability to book further business until they can bava more ot an Idea as to what their future aawlng program will be. Even though most ot the domestic markets are experienc ing weather which la holding back construction work, nan ot January is gone, and within n- other two weeks the retailers will begin to figure on making pnrchaaea for their early spring requirements and the prospects of n shrunken supply will very likely stimulate and speed np orders ot that nattre. i One ot the outstanding results ! ot tbe bsd weather has been an Increasing ahortage of No. 1 fir la on Pnget sound and in the Columba river. In spite ot th unsatisfactory condition of the general lumber market alnce tbe middle ot last year, there has continued to be a good demanl for special cut fir clears for the export shipments, and thla has resulted in a corresponding call for the better grade ot fir logs. The closing down of the logging camps, which took place c'-ti earlier the: .: did with the mills, made the manufacturers appre hensive sbout the supply and aa a result the best rafts have for the most part been bought np. There Is an ample supply of other grade of fir and also hem lock and red cedar, but there Is plenty of reason to believe that lores will be scarce and h!;i?r Oscar's $mack, MOW CM-71WCOONa'S MN(s 10 BC In . -'- before the ramps under way -;aln. Mill stocks ot lumber are not excessive, with rare exceptions. Some Items, aeaaoned dimension more than anything else, already are reduced down to tbe point where a tew mills are having trouble making up hard assort ments tor mixed cars, and should production be held down until February 1. mill stocks will be badly broken. Order files are a trifle heavlel than they were 30 daya ago, bul by that it must not be takes that they are up to normal. Be ing sold on the idea that the slump hss reached bottom and that future revisions ot prices will be upward, the average ma: ".tactur-r la not reaching out for business and the antorced curtailment of the last few day 111 fortify this attitude and make It Increasingly difficult to slip sn order onto a mill's books. The stabilisation ot Atlantic coaat freight rates la having au expression in restored confidence of the buyers In that Importsut field. Feeling that it la now sals to anticipate their require ments, both wholesale and retail distributors have recently been making Increased Inquiry and bona fide placements In better volume than for some time. This Is looked upon aa an encouraxlnr. development because the Atlan tic coast cargo market has been In a badly demoralised condition tor months, with prlcea down tn such an extremely low point that neither the lumber manufacturers nor the steamship companies could gst by without suffering heavy lows. While everyone tn the lumber Industry, from the logger up tn sawmill shaping crews, chsfe In their enforced Idleness, a study of past history will make It clear to any thinking man that thla Is tr-e best thing that could happen to the fir msnr 'icurer. for it must be kept In mind thst while we are frosen In, our customers are In the aame predicament and they will continue to be Inter mittently for several weeks after conditions her hsve become pro pitious for a msximum output of lumber. The pine mills eaat of ths Cas cades ar finding their markets In fully aa bad ahape aa those of the frl producers, but they hsve a different way of looking at winter lulls, and even though the conditions Immediately con fronting them ar bad. they new the situation more complacently, especially ao because they carry large atocka and do not depend upon selling tomorrow whst they manufacture today.

Trained experts eompnte tt;bnt property owners Individually and ooUectiTely create the conditions which determine the cost of their fire insurance. Several msjor factors enter into the determination of fire insurance rates, such at structure, occupancy, the quality of private and publio fire protection, exposure from other property and general lots experience. Surveys Available The agent who writes your insurance or your broker or yon, yourself can obtain an itemised explanation of how your insur ance rate b computed. There it nothing secret about It. The Stock Fire Insurance companies solicit your interest, and offer free of charge the advice of rate-making bureaus to assist in eliminating hatardt or correcting defects which may result in lowering your rate. Seek Counsel Do not attempt unsound fire prevendou measures, but seek the counsel of the ac credited experts of rating bureaus who are anxious to tell you the proper way to make improvements. Insurance companies generally prefer , rinks eligible to a low rate to those which carry higher onet. A low rate indicates bet ter conditions, better maintenance and lees chance of fire. While the National Board of Fire Under-, writers has nothing to do with rates or rate making, as a bureau of standards It does , publish information which rate-makers use to measure the comparative strength and usefulness of materials and devices. Fire Insurance Rates in Oregon are com puted by the Oregon Insurance Rating Bureau, established by law in the Interest of uniformity. The Bureau has offices In Portland.
