Both the lum ber mills of Silverton are busy oa or ders for ship building materials and aeroplane stuff, and a trip through the mill is especially interesting at this time. The Silver Falls Company is just starting on an order for a million and a half feet of ship timbers to be ship ped to Japan, the first three carloads going out last week. The material is to be used for merchant ships for a Japan ese corporation and is doubtless part of the war program in as much as the order has the sanction of the U. S. gov ernment. . At the Silverton Mill they are work-'! ing on a contract for construction ma terial for the Hog Island ship yard in' Pennsylvania concerning which so mueh has been seen in the papers lately. Both mills are turning out large eants for aeroplanes. These are cut three inches thick and sent direct from the saw to a plant at Vancouver, which cuts them down to the proper size for use in build ing flyers for Uncle S.in. At Vancouver the signal corps cut up plant of the army is receiving an immense amount of this material from mills of the west oud work has to be continuous through out the twenty four hours of the day lo take care of the supply. A large tiiy kiln is being built for the cut-up plant, where the spruce lumber will be dried before shipment east. By drying the stock in the west a great saving csn be made in several ways.
