California's Lumber Industry Will Be Featured at State Fair

California's great lumber industry will be featured in exhibits of Sierra and northern California counties during the California State Fair, in Sacramento, September 1 through 11.

The county exhibits, located in the Agriculture Building, will not only feature the multitude of agricultural items now produced in the Golden State, but timber from mountain slopes and valuable minerals as well.

The California State Fair is offering awards for the best display of a variety of trees of economic importance, and for lumbering and products.

There will be awards for California hardwoods, pattern lumber, sawn box shook, burled California redwood, burled pepperwood or myrtle, California millwork, veneering, and veneer products.

Lumber also plays an important part in the annual State Fair, for new construction and repairs. Approximately 150,000 feet of lumber was used in the,construction of new horse barns this year to care for the stabling of additional race and show horses.

More lumber was needed in the construction of outdoor exhibit booths, concession stands, and other facilities, while repairs took thousands of feet more.

The State Fair this year will be the greatest in history. Exhibits have increased, demands for livestock space in barns have been heavier than ever before. and free attrac-

Fifty Million Dollar Loan

To Build Pre-Fab Houses

Congress was told the other day that the RFC has already loaned $35,500,000 to a concern that is trying to get into the house prefabricating business on a big scale, and is preparing to loan.another $14,500,000 to the same concern. That will make fifty million dollars of the taxpayers money going to one concern, the Lustron Corporation, of Columbus, Ohio.

The report did not qtate whether the government is prepared to loan fifty million dollars to any concern that wants to go into the house building business, or whether this one concern is specially favored. Neither did the report state why.

tions will provide entertainment on each of the eleven days of the Fair.

Other features of the Fair will include the flower show, Centennial 'cookery, hobby show, home appliances, machinery and other equipment used by farmers, horse racing, horse show, and thousands of blooded beef, sheep, swine and goats will be on display in the open and junior divisions.

No State Fair is complete without the colorful night theatrical performances on the stage in front of the granclstand. The night show will present stirrs of screett and radio under the direction of Adrian Arvarr. of l-Tollvrvood. Fireworks will precede each show'.

Trussed Rafters Help School Bellt Ring On Time This Year

Washington-Although it will make him no hero with school kids around Cincinnati, Arnold Neufier of the Timber Engineering Company of Ohio, has found a distinct new advantage, other than cost, in Teco trussed rafter construction for one-story school buildings-it is helping get the kids back in school on time this year.

With overflowing schools and steadily increasing enrollments all over the country, school authorities are hard pressed to find accommodations for a record crop of pupils this fall. In many instances, last minute contract approvals have not allowed .contractors time to finish classrooms so that schools can open on schedule.

Neuffer and contractor Al Neyer of Cincinnati solved the time problem in connection with the new St. Bernard Parish School through the use of simple trussed rafters which could be built rapidly on the job this summer. As a result, St. Bernard's kids won't have extra days off this fall. Their new school will be ready for them.
