Gus Russell Becomes Dry Lumber Evangelist Time was when Augustus J. "Gus" Russell of San Francisco created for himself the title of "chief wooden shingle booster", when he led the campaign of the lumber indus-

trv when wooden roofs were threatened with extinction *ithin the borders of this sovereign state of California.

He hasn't changed his opinion a bit in that respect-not even since he got chumming around with that eloquent maker of other roofs, Sylvester Weaver of Los Angelesbut Mr. Russell has another hobby right now, and one in which he is as interested and enthusiastic as he was when shingle campaigning. Likewise he is making a decided success of those efforts, just as he did with shingles.

He is now the champion and advocate of dry Fir lumber for building purposes in the State of California. It is less than a year since Mr. Russell's concern, the Santa Fe Lumber Company, took on an account selling kiln dried Fir. He didn't know himself at that time whether or not it was a wise and lasting game. But the lumber he has been shipping and the satisfaction it has been giving has sold him thoroughly and utterly, and today kiln dried lumber comprises the large majority of stock being sold and shipped by the Santa Fe Lumber Company, and every foot of it is coming into California and Arizona. The hardest buyers on the whole list are trying it with apparent pleasure and

satisfaction, says Mr. Russell, in spite of the fact that No. 1 kiln dried costs from $9 to $tt a thousand more than the same grade g'reen, and the No. 2 costs several dollars more than the green of the same grade.

So this is an interesting campaign that the forceful Mr. Russell is conducting. He gives- the dealer he talks to something new and interesting to think about. He says to the dealer who has known only green common: "\Mhy do YOU stand the loss in grade that comes from air drying in your own yard. When you buy kiln dried the mill has taken the degrade.

"Why do YOU go the expense of sticking your lumber piles ?

"Why do YOU sell dimension surfaced unseasoned, that is necessarily uneven in widths and thicknesses ?

"Do YOU know how much you lose every year through the deterioration of green lumber in your yard ?

"Do YOU know how much shorter lived and less practical for building purposes is green than well dried lumber?

These and other pertinent questions Mr. Russell asks the dealers he calls on. And they scratch their heads in thought.

He has been in Southern California for the past week talking his new hobby.

Announcements You will be interertd to lnow that beginning October lst, Mr. C. J. Laughlin, formerly connected with l.ong-Bell Lumler C,o., will repreeent us exclusively in the cale of our Chickasaw Braxrd Flooring and otfier hardwood products. Mr. laughlin will reside in Los Angeles and will nepresent ur in Southern California from Fresno to San Diego. B€ing well and favorably known throughout the trade in that territory, l\ilr. LaWhlinta eelection ar our exclusive nepresentative will undoubtedly pnove a popuhr one, and with the long estab' lighed reputation of our Chickasaw Brand Oak Flooring for euElity and manufacture to support hb personsl efiortr in aerving the trade, we are confident that you will at all timec give him tihat cotuteous consideration to which he is entitled.

Russell Gheen Was Formerly Forestry Professor at Syracuse University

LUMBER CARRYING SHIPS We are often asked the question, "How many vessels are there hauling lumber from the Pacific Northwest inlo California?" So far as can be computed there are 110 ships engaged in the regular business of haul-

ing lumber from Washington, Oregon and British Columbia to California ports.

EARL WHITE NOW OAKLAND RETAILER Earl E. White, who several months ago embarked in the retail lumber business in Oakland, reports that he finds business in his district satisfactory. His new concern is called the East Bay Lumber & Mill Co. Earl has a large acquaintanceship with the lumber fraternity of California and the Pacific Coast, having been associated with the California Door Co. for sixteen years, serving as manager of their retail yard at Folsom, and prior to entering business for himself acted as traveling representative for the company.

w. R. CHAMBERLTN AND JOE ROLANDO

Russell Gheen is the basso voiced and excellent gentleman who sells the stock of the C. D. Johnson Lumber Company in Southern California territory. Before joining the Johnson forces he was manager of a buying office in Portland for, a big eastern concern, and previous to that time he was assistant secretary of the American Wholesale Lumber Association, rvhen Dick Putman lvas head of that organization.

But there was an earlier experience in this young man's life that has not been advertised. For six yeais before joining the wholesalers' association Mr. Gheen held the chair of forestry in Syracuse lJniversity, the youngest man that ever held a full professorship in that great institution of learning.

So when Mr. Gheen talks lumber and timber to you you rvill understand that he gets his knowledge of the subject from every practical source, books, science and personal contact. Few lumbermen in the country have a better foundation for a lumber career than Mr. Gheen. Besides that he likes the lumber business. and likes to sell lumber. That's why he left the college job. And he says he's glad of it.

RETURN FROM NORTHWEST

W. R. Chamberlin, W. R. Chamberlin & Co., and Joe

Rolando, Sudden-Heitman Lumber Co., are back again at their desks in San Francisco after spending three weeks in the Northwest. While in the North, they were visitors at the several mills which the Chamberlin interests represent in the California market, together with calling on many of their Northwest lumbermen friends.

GLENWOOD Li'MBER CO. REMODELS OFFICE The Glenwood Lumber Co., San Jose, have remodeled their lumber office, both exterior and interor, and have furnished the office with new equipment. The office also has a display room and the interior of the office is .very attractively arranged. O. E. Schnobel and E. Walter Schnobel operate this retail lumber concern.

C.L. M. Will Run Redwood Farm Bulletins No association trade extension campaign in lumber history has been more practical and useful than the Agricultural Bulletin service that is now being issued by The California Redwood Association.

This service is prepared by and is in the very capable lTands of Max E. Cook, a practical Farmstead Engineer, and they are created for the purpose of helping the retail lumber dealer promote the use of more and better farm buildings in his territory, by supplying him with practical and successful plans and directions for such buildings and thus making it easier and simpler for the farmei to build.

The particular plans that are being issued by Mr. Cook in this effort are the result of long and thoughtful experience in such matters, and the dealer who offers such assistance to his farm friends can be assured that they are the result of the best thought and experience that can be brought to bear on the subject.

In its frontpiece, the bound Bulletin Book says: ' Recognizing the value of complete plans, specifications, and bills of material to encourage and make it easier for the farmer to build, the California Redwood Association has established an Agricultural Department to assist Lumber Dealers, Farmers and Agricultural interests rvith' farm building problems.

Plans and specifications are made available, that when

followed, result, not only in better arrangement and appearance, but that avoid waste of material or labor, and insure greatest economy in choice of lengths, sizes and grades of

material most suitable, as confirmed by years of practical experience in modern farm building design and construction.

Only such designs are produced and made available as have proven thoroughly efficient, practical, and economical.

These six points have been observed throughout: 1. To avoid waste.

2. To use standard lengths and economical sizes.

3. To utilize short lengths rvherever possible.

4. To select wisely the right wood for a given use to insure greatest economy.

5. Low depreciation.

6. Lumber satisfaction.

The Service is a series of Agricultural Building Bulletins.

They are all letter size, and each bulletin gives plans and specifications w(th illustrations of some distinct farm building or accessory.

There is a supplement to each of these bulletins which shows the material list for each plan, with cutting directions. THIS supplement is necessarily the private property of the dealer who gets the bulletin, and one which he does (Continued on Page 14)

(Continued from Page 12) NOT shorv to his trade, this material bill being HIS guarantee of selling the material if the farmer decides to build rvhatever the plan calls for. 'fhe California Redwood Association has already issued twenty of these bulletins. When a dealer installs this service, they sell trim a binder containing all of these already issued bulletins, with introductory literature in the front of same. The dealer subscriber is then entitled to purchase from the Association at cost price,'reprints of each and every bulletin he desires. These bulletins he uses for mailing o.r presenting to his customers, to interest them in this particular building or accessory. The supplement he keeps in his own office. The binder is loose leaf, and as each additional bulletin appears it is mailed to each subscriber, and he adds it to his book. Thus he is constantly building up this attractive farm plan book, and he can get reprints of any of the plans, at any time.

Also, the Association will sell him at low price newspaper mats or cuts that he can use in his advertising of these services. if he desires to do so.

This Service has met rvith inrmediate response from the dealers of California, about 300 of them having subscribed for same service already, more than 225,0n copies of reprints having been ordered and distributed, and hundreds of letters having been received from dealers, farmers and other interests, telling of successful accomplishment from this service.

Between 40 and 5O California dealers have built certain of the building things shown in the plans and used them

for display in their yards, thereby bringing about direct sales, and visualizing what they have to offer. One dealer built a septic tank from one of these bulletins, and sold more than twenty of them from' displaying it in front of his office. Many newspaper mats have been ordered.

"The California l-umber Merchant" desires to help this good work along and to that end has arranged with the California Redwood Association for permission to publish these bulletins in these columns as educational matter and in succeeding issues of this journal these bulletins will appear.

Railroad Association Reports California overflowing with Consistent Prosperity California's prosperity thus far In 1926 has exceeded all previous records for a similar period in the State's history and present indications are that this prosperity will continue for the rest of the year, it was shown by'reports on conditions from all parts of the State submitted at the quarterly conference of the Pacific Coast Transportation Advisory Board of the American Railway Assbciation, conducted at the Alexandria Hotel in Los Angeles the other day.

In only one line of production, that of grapes, were conditions revealed as unsatisfactory. The amount of the crop is somewhat less than last year and marketing conditioni have been unfavorable owing to early maturity ind unusual weather conditions in the East. To remedy-the situation, it was _proposed to form a grape growers' oiganization, a.td preliminary steps in this direction will be talen at a meeting to be conducted this morning at the Biltmore, to be attgnded by of all the different grape-growing districts of-representatives the State.

Plan Car Needs meeting, which was presided over by Charles E. _ _.T!,.

Virden, chairman of the industrial committee of ttre California Development Association, was attended bv almost 500 growers,_bankers, railroad executives, shippers and business men of California, Arizona, Nevada and New Mexico. The specific purpose of the conference was to take stock of economic conditions in these States and to decide on car needs for the shipping of commodities during the next ninety-day period.

This year's was clearly revealed in the quarterly report of-prosperity George H. Leithner, manager for the western district of the American Railway Association. which showed that for the first eight months of the year tire total amount of freight loaded in this territory was i,ZZO,4OZ cars, an increase of 85,264 cars, or 7.2 per cent, over the number of cars loaded during the same period in 1925 and L76,Ol7 cars more than were'ioaded during the fiist eight months of 1924, Statements of perishables transported in refrigerator cars compared with the same period in l9Z5 and 31.904 cars more than in1924.It was stat;d that fully 90 per cent of the

great number of cars loaded this year tepresented California products alone.

Citrus Outlook . Reports on production and car needs for the remaining three months of the year were submitted by forty-two com-modity committees, representing every part of: the $tate.

Among the more important of these weri the following: Citrus production, it was reported bv C. O. Cornwall. chairman of the citrus committee, is laiqer this year than last, the tonnage being estimated at 70,000 ot *ore carloads.

9p to the 14th inst. it was reported that 57,800 cars had been shipped and it was estimated that 15,000 additional cars will be needed up until the end of the year.

Over Seventy Fir Mills Concerned in Proposed Merger Negotiations for a proposed merger of more than seventy Northwest manufacturers of Fir, were held at Kansas City early this week.

Reports at press time, indicate the practical completion of the plan, with representatives of many of the Washington and Oregon mills in conference at Kansas City.

The plan would consolidate about one-third of the entire production of the Pacific Northwest, approximately three billion feet per year, and represents a welding of three hundred and sixty million dollars of invested capital.

The Organization Committee meeting at Kansas City is composed of Mr. C. D. Johnson, President of the pacific Spruce Corporation, chairman; Major Everett Griggs, Tacoma; Mr. James Tyson, San Francisco; Mr. Ray Danaher,

Detroit, and Mr. Chas. S. Keith, Kansas City, President of the Central Coal & Coke Company.

The Kansas City meeting is the result of more than eighteen months of negotiations, It has been stated that the plan would bring about greater economy in mill operations, greater efficiency, and co-ordination in water and rail shipments. Mr. Keith recently declared, in discussing the plan, "The merger would place the Fir lumber business on a profitable basis from the standpoint of manufacturing, preparation and distribution," and that the principal trouble at present is improper distribution and preparation, evils which an organization could correct, he believes.

The plan provides for the outright purchase of all assets of the merging companies for cash or its equivalent in stock in the parent corporation.

Always _pu-t yourself in the other fellow's place.

Golden Rule has proven just as successful iil the lumber business as it has everywhere else.

faith in the value and usefulness of all Redwood in general, and in the product of his own concern ln particular.

They are great folks for talking quality, are these Little River Redwood Company people. In the first place they own over four billion feet of virgin Redwood timber located in what they believe and claim to be the greatest stand of commercial Redwoods on earth, in the Big Lagoon and Little River watersheds.

Their timber is magnificent in quality and extra large in size. Not far from their mill at Crannell stands a Red-

Sawmill and Pond of the Little Riaer Re-dzs,ood Company, Crannell

The president and financial genius of the concern is Mr. Levi Crannell, who lives at ttawa, Canada.

The sales offices in San Francisco are in charge of W. H. "Bill" Dunning, a young executive with a splendid record for lumber salesrnanship, 'who possesses an abiding

wood tree on their property that will some day go to the saw, which they believe to be the largest Redwood tree on earth outside the National Forests. The total height of this trce is 308 feet, and it is 20: feet in diameter five feet from the ground. Allowing for a reasonable loss in falling,

The sawmill proper is equipped with three band headrigs-two single cutting and one double cutting-and a'large heavy-duty resaw. In addition to the sawmill there is a large and modern planer equipped with the most modern typi of machinery for the working and dressing of the lumber after it comes from the sawmill, and there is also a splendidly equipped re-manufacturing plant' From 60,000 to 80,000 feet of lumber goes through the re-manufacturing plant daily, permitting them to cater to every kind of Redwood buyer, of cargo, timbers, yard stock and re-manufactured stock.

The Crannell plant is operated by a combination system of steam and electrical Power.

Both these loading wharves are located on Humboldt Bay right across the Bay from Eureka. The Fairhaven wharves were formerly owned and operated by the Rolf Shipbuilding Company, and were purchased by the Little River Redwood Company two years ago, and transformed into the finest of Redwood water shipping docks. At this wharf the

The Little River Redwood Company also have two fine lumber carrying vessels of their own which ply continually between Humboldt Bay and the Lower California ports, the "Tamalpais" and the "Washington" being the names of this fleet.

The Redwood product of this concern is not only out of the finest of virgin timber, well manufactured, well dried, well handled and well shipped, but it is mighty lvell sold.

As before stated, Bill Dunning handles the sales from San Francisco. In Southern California they have a contract bv

The ltost Highly Perfected Lumber Garrier Made fn the past few years all operators of modern mills have recognized that the most efficient way of handling yard, transportation is with the Carrier System. The only problem then was to secure a Carrier that in its operation and durability would properly and reliably meet with this new condition.

So it was, with 34 yeats of experience in building power transportation equipment behind him, that Mr. Carl F. Gerlinger set himself to the task of producing the ideal

lutnber carrier. Out of the years of study and experiment came the application of the time-tried hydraulic principle to the lumber carrier. The present GERLINGER is the result of this efiort. Its many distinctive features and points of superiority are now quickly placing it in the forefront of its field.

W'e earnestly believe this new Model HS to be easily the most highly beveloped, simply constructed, strongest, reliable' carrier made.

The illustrations which accompany this story were selected for the purpose of illustrating the splendid timber, unusual milling and shipping facilities, and economical and efficient milling operations of the Little River Redwood Company.

The private oflice of W. H. Dunning, in San Francisco, should really be added to this story, although no picture was available. Many of the Redwood concerns have made use of their own wood in their San Francisco offices to show how beautifully Redwood can be used for interior finish, trim, doors, etc., but none of them to better advantage than has the Little River Redwood Company in this San Francisco ofifice, where the Redwood interior effects are wonderful.

This concern also gives much of its attention to the exploiting of Redwood for use where beautiful interior and exterior wood effects are desired. They have in their colIection many wonderful pictures of interiors where Redwood was used in a variety of ways, to rival the most wonderful cabinet woods of the world for effect and result.

How a Clever Home Builder is Securing a Wonderful Home Prospect List A retail lumberman in a certain Southern City (the name not to be mentioned here but available to anyone interested) gives us the facts concerning a home building campaign now being staged by a home builder of his city, that is so filled with new and practical ideas for securing a list of home building prospects, together with a complete statement of their likes, dislikes, plans, ideas, etc., for a home, that it is certain to interest every building mercfigrt.

We have published plenty of stories concerning" essay campaigns to interest home builders, etc., but this'one is a brand new slant on the idea, and a greatly improved one.

This man started an essay campaign on home building, as a direct and immediate result of which he has t huge number of people in his prospect file with a complete stateme'nt from each of their ideas of a home plan, and a complete description of what they would like to own in a home.

Here is the way he did it. He put on a new subdivision.

When he got it ready for home building, he started several attractive homes on it, to show,it was real.

Then he ran an ad in the Sunday papers, that read something like this, although it was a big and well displayed piece of copy: "We are new in the home building business in this city, but old in experience. We want to know what the people of this city like in the shape of homes. For that purpose we are inaugurating herewith a contest that will bring us that information. We have $1,500 available that we are offering as prizes in this contest. Clip the coupon in the corner and mail it in, and we will send you the necessary blank plans on which you may draw your floor plan. 'We want each contestaht to take this blank, and draw therein their ideal floor plan':for a four, five, or six room home, one story high. With each plan we want a 500 word article giving any additional description of their ideal plan, telling why they favor this plan, explaining any details necessary, and making any suggestions with regard to construction, materials, details, etc., they rnay desire.

That was the outline. The prizes are ten in number, the first being $500, and they are to be awarded in the shape of CREDITS ON A HOME BUILT FOR THE CON-

Result ! When this report was received the returns were not all in, but this enterprising gentleman had in his office 166 such plans and letters. The coupon from the ad brought the contestant a very attractive little "kit" of equipment, including an attractive blank sheet on which to draw the floor plan, a sheet on which to write the description, an addressed, stamped envelope to carry them bafl$to the building concern, etc. \-.i1.1 :

PABGO SHINGTES No longer are home builders content with old fash, ioned painted shingle roofs. They are demanding bright, permanent PABCO SHINGLES. Pabco Colochrome Shingles are made in nine tones in a variety of shapes. They cost less to lay,last longer and look better than wooden shingles.

Offer your customers PABCO SHINGLES, they will appreciate their utility and beauty-and here the trite but true adage applies-"4 $atisfied Customer is the Best Advertisement."

Our hats are off to this'enterPrising gehtleman. We believe he pulled the best campaign of the kind we ever' heard of.

I

Now that advertiser has in his possessiori the names and addresses of 166 people who are interested. in a home, who have worked out plans for their ideal home, and have placed those plans on paper in drawing and in words. This, in itself, is a wonderful asset to any home building concern. He got a lot of marvelous information out of those plans, and those letters. He got home building suggestions so keen

and attractive that he began immediately incorporating them into the houses he himself is building on the property.

These folks suggested little things he had never thought of.

For instance, one lady suggested that tle electric light

push buttons on the walls be plated with radium, so that they would be plainly visible in the ilark. How is that one? This was one of many.

When the contest is ended, the ten winners will receive certificates of credit which they may use in payment on any home they may buy from the advertiser, or have built by him. , He will build on their own plan, and in their own way. They can have their ideal home. And the remaining large number of unsuccessful contestants are a splendid list for his salesmen to work on. The salesmen will call, knowing in advance that they want a home, and exactly what home they want. It will be practically non-competi-

HousE

At a meeting of the district sales managers-of the CreoDipt Compani, Inc., manufacturers of Creo-Dipt Stained

Shingles, a new "re-beautifying" campaign was decided upon t5 help the lumber dealers of the country develop the repair and remodeling business in their communities.

2'With new buildin? showing unmistakable signs of lev-

eling ofi," said Mr. E. p. tcenaall, Jr., President of Creo-

Dipi "it behooves each lumberman to consider that 90

pei cent of the business possibilities of each community iomes in the old building field. New building requirements for the future in any one year will probably never exceed 10 per cent of the buildings now standing. 'tn many small towns, for example, only two to three new housei may be built in an entire year. On the other hand, in that same town there are hundreds of houses already up, and of these a very large percentage-need painting, re-roofing, interior changes, or repairing of some kind. nThat is th1 big field for the lumber dealer to, develop, because it represents business that goes on year after year, whether new building is slow or active.

NEW HAYWARD YARD OPENS The new Hayward yard at Los Banos has been formally opened under the capable direction of manager W. H. Sloan.

I[ is a modern plant in every respect, has a complete service department, and makes the seventeenth retail yard now being operated by the company.

THE MARCH OF PROGRESS .i

Statietics revial,thelinteresting fact that during the years of. 1924 alnd,1925 m$rg thr*;+4,000 new homes were built within the confines of Los Angekr.

To us these.figiri:rare particularly significant in that the JOHN JOHNSON FLOORING CO. furnished a considerable portion of the hardwood fooring material used in these homes.

In this there is food for thought for the retail lumber dealer, as it. indicates the general preference in the local building field for JOHNSON HARDWOOD FLOORING-a preference built on quality material and service of the highest order.

Make up your mind now to get in on this profitable hardwood fooring business by actively pushing and selling JOHNSON HARDWOOD FLOORING. Test the idea out on youf, neKt order.

Laminex Doors Used to Get More Business The successful merchants these days realize. more than ever before, that they must interesi the public in their places of business and in the material which they have to offer. These are days of aggressive rather than passive merchandising for merchants in every line, and, of course, the more aggressive the merchant is, the more quickly public attention is directed his way and the faster his business grows.

The concern that can secure the assistance of the mavor

passersby, a group of interested people being at the exhibit most of the time. At the close of the test the door \r'as removed from the tank of water to give the public an opportunity of seeing it after being dried out. At this time the door was re-weighed to ascertain the amount of water it had absorbed and found that its weight gain after be-

ing in the water five days and four nights was 7 pounds, !4 ounces. In spite of the water absorbed the expansion in width and length was a scaht one-eighth inch and in

and most prominent citizens of a city of three hundred thousand people in drawing the attention of the public to the products rvhich they handle is bound to produce results.

Such a thing was done the week beginning September 20th by the Waterfront Sash & Door Company, Oakland, in staging the famous "Laminex" water teit, similar to those stages in.other sections of the country, but perhaps put on a little bit more elaborately than heretofore.

Mayor Davie Officiates On Monday rnorning, the 20th, a stock Laminex one panel door was placed in a tank of water in the Builders lixhibit Building, Oakland. Hon. John L. Davie, Mayor of the Citl'of Oakland, E. M. Tilden, President of the Builders Exchange and of the Tilden Lumber Company, and Maury I. Diggs, prominent architect of Oakland, attested to the weight, .ividth and length of the door before its submersion in the tvater, Mayor Davie autographing the door to prevent substitution. The door remained submerged until Friday afternoon, the 24th, at 3 o'clock, and cluring the days and nights of its soakingwas viewed by hundreds of

thickness one-sixteenth inch. The door was inspected by the committee and found to be free from warp, buckle or blister with panels and joints undamaged and veneer solid.

Prizes Awarded During the test, cards had been passed out to the public giving the opportunity to estimate the amount of water the door would absorb. The nearest estimate was 7 oounds 11 ounces, made by William Moon, Oakland, California, rvho received a cash orize of $10.00. The next hearest estimates were those of Arthur Mock, Oakland and H. E. Buckland, Oakland, u'ho received prizes of $5.00 each.

Printerrs Ink Used This test was preceded by publicity, otherr,vise it could not have been the success it was. The three leading Oakland newspapers carried ads two columns wide and 12 inches in length immediatcly preceding the test and during its life, and all of the newspapers gave considerable news space, the connection of the Mayor and prominent (Continued on Page 46)

After such a drastic and tconvincing test "there is little wonder", says Lou 'Woodson, Manager of the Northern California office of the Wheeler, Osgood Company, "that the sale of Laminex doors has met with such unprecedented success." The Wheeler, Osgood Company offer a free ad-service that enables dealers to sell more doors and make more money, Dealers who welcome advertising and selling helps are offered a set of free newspaper electros and other materials with "directions for using".

Florida Real Estate Boomers Have Moved To Texas Panhandle Amarillo,'Tex., Sept. 24.-Deserting their lot sale grounds in' the Sunshine State, Flqrida r:eal estate promoters are moving into the Panhandle of Texas, organizations, tactics and all.

In Ar.narillo alone there now are probably more former Floriddns than in any other city in the southwest, while virtually every one of the other Panhandle towns now booming also has a quota of Floridans helping things move' All the tactics of the frenzied Florida selling campaigns are being employed in the new boom area, with the addition of a new departure of applying real estate sales tactics to the oil game.

The largest real estate organization in Amarillo was imported almost bodily from Miami, for example, bringing its salesmen, staff and campaign system with it and using precisely the same sales strategy that made the Florida city famous,

The West Improves in Prosperity The business map of the country published in the

last issue of "The California Lumber Merchant" should give the business men of the Pacific Coast

much cause for self-congratulation and satisfaction.

In thirty. days' time the Pacific Coast territory had improved in business and financial condition more than any other part of the country, and the whole nation showed marked improvement.

Those maps are issued by The Nation's Business, published by the United States Chamber of Commerce. The conclusions arrived at are by men with no axes to grind, no purposes of an ulterior character to be served. They are honest digests of unbiased opinions on conditions.

The free state of Arizona took the cake, nationally. In August all of Arizona showed "FAIR" on the map. In September, thirty days later, it all showed the white of prosperity. The entire state, and one-third of the western side of New Mexico with it. And the whitq spread across Southern California to Arizona.

Lumber Co., Oakland, ii in the Nort-hrvest where he is calling on the Oregon mills and visiting with his lumbermen friends. He will be arvay from biusiness about two weeks, returning around the fiist of the month.

The only other all prosperity state in the Union in this map is Oklahoma, and Oklahoma was half

white the month before. Texas is a little more than one-half white, the rest fair.

The Los Angeles territory and all of California from the Los Angeles east and west line south, is shown white. The entire Bay District of San Francisco, Oakland, etc., is white with prosperity. No part of California is worse than fair.

The western half of Washington turned white, and the Portland territory in Oregon showed the same way. The rest of both those states showed fair conditions.

The California-Arizona district, the Pacific Northwest and the Texas-Oklahoma district are in grand shape. There is only one other prosperous diitrict of any size shown in the country, and that is the Chicago territory and surrounding district.

The Pacific Coast is going great. Let's help make it even better.

THE SECRET OF REDUCING "You must reduce by taking exercise," said the doctor to the too-fat woman.. "\l[/hat exercise do you recommend," said she, glad to know she didn't have to diet.

"Push yourself away from the table three times a day," replied the hard-boiled doctor. \VHICH ONES DOES HE MEAN? .Henry Van Dyke (says Thomas Dreier) says there are three rurfailing causes of strife and contention among men: Land, women and the formula of religion. Why do we quarrel about these things when we know that only one of them is worth quarreling about?

SAVING GASOLINE

A certain auto owner who read the motor papers and motor advertising, installed a new Carburetor that was guaranteed to save 20 per cent in gas consumption. He then installed special spark plugs that were guaranteed to save 20 pet cent of the same precious fluid. He put in an intake superheater that was also guaranteed to save 20 per cent.

He then put in a patented rear axle with a guarantee of a 20 pe,r cent saving, and put on a brand new set of tires that were guaranteed to save 20 per cent in gas consumption.

Finally he drained his crankcase and refilled it with a new oil guaraqteed to increase his mileage 2O per cent. Now, with a fuel eco4omy guarantee of 120 per cent he has to stop every hundred miles and bail out the gas tank to keep

it from running over.

Boy-I ain't asleep. I just got my eyes closed. I can't bear to see the women standing in a crowded.street car.

And Enjoy Doing It, Too Pat came over to this country and landed in New York, and he wasn't long in getting a good job. His big muscles and willingness to work made him a very desirable man for a big house wrecking company, and Pat was put on the payroll regularly.

They could have saved money for a while on Pat had

they known his state of mind, for he wrote home to the folks on the Ould Sod and said: "Sure it's one gran' job f'm afther havin' over here.

They're payin' me four dollars a day to tear down a Protestant Church, an' if they only knew it I'd tear it down fer nothin'." later opening their San l-rancisco office where he had charge of their export and fir business in California.

NEW ORLEANS LUMBERMAN VISITS

F. 'W. S. Locke to Leave for East F. W. S. Locke, well knolvn San Francisco lumberman and for the past two years and a half manager of the San Francisco office of the C. D. Johnson Lumber Co., resigned on September 30 and plans to leave for the east in \he near futule where he u'ill locate in New York City as the representative of Pacific Coast lumber interests.

Mr. Locke has an interesting lumber career and has been associated with the lumber business on the Pacific Coast for many years, dating back to 1906. During the year 1908, ire represented a chain of Pacific Coast mills in Tngland.

In 1909 he was located at Mobile, Alabama, where he spent four years in charge of the export business of the Chicago Lumber & Coal Co., and in 1913 he was back on the Coast again as manager of their Seattle office. From 1915 to 1919, he was a major in the English army during the World War. He returned to the United States in 1919, but later in the year he returned to London as the representative of the France & Kennedy S.S. Co., rvhere he spent four years looking after the foreign interests of their trading departrnent. In 1923 he returned to the Pacific Coast again and became associated rvith the C. D. Johnson Lumber Co.,

CALIFORNIA Chas. Vernon, of the lumber firm of Baldinger & Vernon, New Orleans, La., has been a California business visitor for the past two weeks. Mr. Vernon is engaged in the commission lumber business in Nelv Orleans and their business is by f.ar the largest one of its kind in the state of Louisiana.

A year and a half ago they took on the Redwood account of the Union Lumber Company for New Orleans territory, and have built up a very fine trade right there in the heart of the old Cypress district. While at first they sold mostly siding to replace Cypress siding in many yards and for many purposes, they now sell many other Redwood items, and feel that Redwood has come to New Orleans to stay.

Mr. Vernon spent a week with the Union Lumber Company at Fort Bragg and San Francisco.

WILL ATTEND NEW ORLEANS CONVENTION Mrs. J. Fraser, secretary of the California Retail Lum-

bermen's Association, will leave for New Orleans around

the first of November to attend the annual convention of the National Retail Lumber Dealers' Association which rvill convene in New Orleans at the Roosevelt Hotel from November 8-12. Preceding the convention, on November 8, there will be a meeting of the Association Secretaries.

Window Glass Excerpts from a recent Bulletin of the Millwork Institute of California, by H. T. Didesch, Managing Director.

Machine-made glass in the past 15 years has practically displaced the products of hand-made factories. It reaches

its greatest perfection irt the factories of America and todan "domestic" window glass is far superior to any foreign make.

The Master Specification for GLASS for glazing purposes

as prepared by the Federal Specification Board of the United States Government, contains the only definite grad-

ing rules to be had and classifies clear window glass as follows: IAA Quality

Single Strength

lA ( Quality I Average Weight

| ,B Quality I lStl oz. per sq. ft. \C Quality II

Quality CLEAR 1| )[-0;;iiii )A.,e'"geWeight WINDOW I Double Strength) \24% oz. per sq. ft. cl.A,ss | (B Quality (

(AA

I

(Glazing Quality Weights | 26 oz. 29 oz.

I Heavy Sheet I (Factory Run 34 oz. 39 oz. t

The total production of window glass from domestic factories, based on the best results obtainable, will grade about as follows:

'

3/o to 4% C Quality 65% to 70% B Quality 27% to 34% A Quality

2/o to 3% AA Quality ''"Single Strength" glass runs from t2 to lol lights to the inch and has an average weight of.I8l oz. to the square foot. The maximum dimensions recommended are 40x50 inches. "Double Strength" glass runs from 9 to 8 lights to the inch and has an aveiage weight ot 24l oz. to the square foot.' The maximum dimensions recommehded are 60x80 inches.

European glass is marketed as 16 oz. znd,2l oz. and, ol course, is thinner than domestic glass.

.The weight or thickness of window gtass.has no bqaring on the defects allowed. The size of the sheet governs the extent of defects permissible in both "single" and "double" strength.

There is no such thing 19" plrfe-ct window glass.

Inasmuch as "AA" A,f;,ro::Tllitutes so small a per-

centage of the total output, it is not available from dealers' stocks, neither is there any certainty of the factories having

the stock on hand. Delays are bound to occur, which, with the additional expense of L. C. L. shipments and extra hazards of breakage, make its cost far out of proportion to the results looked for.

In unusually high class residence work and wherever the cost of the glass is of secondary consideration, polished plate should be used, particularly on street elevations, and in all lights having an area greater than 16 square feet. The rear and less conspicuous elevations, as well as smaller lights, may be glazed with "A" Quality, either single or double strength, depending upon their size, with satisfactory results. . If the cost of polished plate (its present cost is 3 to 4 times that of double strength) prevents its use, "A" Quality should be used. Lights having an area of from 5 to 16 square feet'should be "dou-!fe strength." Those under 5 square feet should 'be r"sing{e ''strength," bearing in mind that French doors and large casements which are more or less subjcit to sudden o-pening and closing, should be ir glazed with "double strength."

(Continued from Page 55.)

It should be understood that it is almost impossible for the industry to furnish "AA" Quality window glass. Undoubtedly in the past, the promiscuous specifying of "AA" Quality has lead to substitution of 'AA' Quality to a minimum, or better still, to avoid its use altogether.

Bear in mind, please, that your specifications must be reasonably obtainable to be fulfilled.

"AA" Quality 0"q1";3':Slur'"i#ree f rom defects.

When plate glass cannot be used, office buildings, exclusive apartments and the better class residences and hotels should be glazed with "A" Quality glass,. particularly on the street fronts. The rear, alley and court elevations may be glazed with "8" Quality and the cost materially reduced.

Lights of areas up to 6 square feet can be "single strength" (unless there be extra rvind hazard). Those from 6 to 16 square feet should be "double strength."

A saving can be made by using "8" Quality glass in all openings not in the line of direct vision, such as transoms over store fronts, transoms over high windows, borrowed lights, etc.

DS (double strength) glass costs approximately one-third more than single strength. In lights of 6x8 td 18x30 or those of an area of. 3l to 4 square feet, nothing is gained in either effect or service by using DS. In the interests of conservation, schools and other public buildings, in which lights are of this area, should be glazed with SS (single strength) glass.

In. ordinary apartment houses, hotels, dwellings and all medium class structures, "B" Quality should be used, particularly in the service part of the buildings. It is the custom to select the best lights for the lower sash of double hung windows and the more prominent openings, thereby eliminating to a large extent, the defects bccuriing in th-e line of vision. , "B" Quality glass should be used in loft buildings, warehouses and small dwellings when the size of the lights does not exceed 16 square feet. There will, however, be occasions when it is necessary to use "A" Quality, as on street elevations, in the offices of large buildings, and in living and dining rooms of houses.

"Fourth" Quality and "C" Quality glass is produced in such small quantities that they are not carried in stock in

this territory. Their use is confined principally to hot

houses, hot bed sash, barn sash, t"tc.

DON'T specify "AA" with the expectation of getting perfect glass, DON'T specify "AA" rvhen "A" Quality will suffice.

DON'T specify "Double Strength" rvhen "Single rength" will suffice.

Strensth" DON'T specify soecifv "Windorv Glass" rvith the expectation of "W getting the quality of "Polished Plate."

Heavy Window Glass This glass is produced in trvo qualities-"glazing quality" and "factory run," and in four thicknesses-26 oz., D oz., 34 oz., and 39 oz.

26 oz. runs from 8 to 7l lights to each inch 8 oz. runs from 7 to 6l lights to each inch 34 oz. runs from 6rl to 6 lights to each inch 39 oz. runs from 5l to 5 lights to each inch The average dimensions obtainable are as follows: 60 x 84 inches for 26 oz. and D oz.

48 x 72 inches for 34 oz. and, 39 oz.

The maximum size recommended by the United States Government Master Specification is 66 x 90.

This glass is made with the same materials and by the same process as "single" and "double" strength rvindow glass. It contains all the defects of. l8l and 24rl oz. glass.

Its only comparison with plate glass is in weight and thickriess. fts use is as a substitute for polished plate glass in cheaper grades of rvork, or where an extra heavy glass is required.

Heavy window glass is sometimes referred to as "Crystal Sheet" or "3/L6 inch Crystal." Many have the impression that crystal sheet is similar in quality to plate but lighter in rveight, which is not correct.

The word "Crystal" is a trade name, and a misnomer

rvhen used with reference to quality.

Heavy window glass is just rvhat the name indicates.

Heavy window glass is not available from stocks on the Pacific Coast and recuirements of it are ordered from the factories, subject to tire same delays as "AA" Quality.

A New Method of Packing A nelv and unique method of packing lumber products has been adopted by George C. Brown & Company in the packing of their Supercedar Closet Lining.

This company, said to be the largest manufacturer of Aromatic Red Cedar Lumber in the world, and which has within the last two years gone to manufacturing the finished product, is packing their Closet Lining in corrugated fibre board boxes. These boxes are 8% inches in length and a{ter the stock is placed in the boxes, the ends are sealed and the package {astened with three steel straps.

The Sales Department of George C. Brown & Company states that retail dealers all over the country are becoming very enthusiastic over this new systern of packing. The stock can be handled with a great deal less labor, stored in less space, and delivered by the retail yard to the job in the same fresh, clean -condition in which it leaves the mill.

Dealers have suggested that this company has started a system of packing which may eventually be adopted by a great many lines of the lumber trade.

Supercedar Closet Linihg is rvholesaled in Southern California by E.J. Stanton & Son, Los Angeles.

A CASH PRIZE COMPETITION "While only one employee in the Redwood Lumber inclustry won a cash prize in the National Waste Prevention Contest ending last spring, for a nerv and practical milling .

device. the directors of the California Redrvood Association

are convinced that there are many more employees in the Redrvood industry rvho have the ability and ingenuity to perfect worth-while devices that prevent waste or reduce manufacturing costs and are entitled to some sort of recognition."

This staternent uras made by Secretary R. F. Hammatt

s7

when he announced that the California Redwood Association would hold a Regional Prize Contest for the two best, original devices or methods of operbtion, that would decrease waste in logging or milling, improve the quality of the lumber, or reduce logging or manufacturing costs, developed by an employee in the Redrvood region and applicable to operations peculiar to the lumbering of that great wood.

HAYWARD HAS NEW MANAGER C. H. Garner, formerly assistant, has replaced Stephen Gile as manager of the Escondido yard of the Hayward Lumber & Investment Co. OPENS SALES OFFICE G. W. Winnor, who recently disposed of his yards at

Owensmouth and Reseda, has opened a branch selling office for Lounsberry & Harris at Owensmouth.

LARGE SHIPMENT FOR ISLANDS Loading the largest cargo of asphalt, roofing and asphalt shingles yet turned out by the Los Angeles Paper Manufacturing Company for Hawaiian shipment, Edward A. Mulford representative of the company on the islands and in the Orient, sailed last week to resume his war on boring ants and dry rot which have been causing increasing destruction in the tropical climates.

"Having been in the buSiness of manufacturing high grade building felts for more than 25 years in Los Angeles, when the Los Angeles Paper Manufacturing Company announced a few months ago that they had added one of the best equipped prepared roofing plants to their factories, for the production of scientifically processed asphalt roofing, veteran builders became regular customers almost from the start," said Mulford.

"It has been a case of stepping up production ever since, and with wet weather anticipated in the near future, roofing materials that are guaranteed to stand the beat of the elements for 10 and 2O years are springing into brisk demand."
