' Lumber and Industry "The lumber Industry Is destined, to provide for the Klamath region the greatest source of revenue for a number of years to come, and al though it may be overtaken by agri culture In its importance in this commnulty, the time for this transi tion is quite remote. "The lumber Industry, providing1 as It does, some 15.000 cars of lumber per year and 30.000 cars of logs, gives the city a payroll of some 7,000,000 to $9,000,000 peri year, which Is constantly growing; and as fully 70 per cent of the pay roll Is spent In the community, the Importance of this asset should be recognized. The lumber Industry in Ita purchases for Its own consump tion spends fully 35 ner cent In the city of Klamath Falls, which means an aggregate of $600,000 per year, which means practically $100.00 for everv adult in IClamalh XTallo To Onen I'd Timber "The Southern Pacific system as Outlined will onpn on nAHnallv all the availahln limhor In hA anll Klamath Basin and make It largely , tributary to Klamath Falls, and Is tvaiem ul Bucn magnuuae mat ltly,, can readily handle the freight now notng provided and the Increased tonnage that should properly come from the Klamath forests.
