Benson Lumber Company of San Diego Will Liquidate

Announcement has'been made in San Diego of the approaching liquidation of the Benson Lumber Company, of that city. This concern operated a sawmill plant on the Sigsb:e Street docks .from 1907 until 1946, when economic conditions caused the permanent closing of the mill. Since that time the company has been operating a retail and brokerage lumber business.

The mill was built in 1906 and 1907, mostly from timbers that wer: brought in..great rafts from the Columbia River. From that time on th'ese rafts of iogs were towed by big barges from the Northr,vrst territory to San Diego. They were mighty affairs. At one time THE CALIFORNIA LUMBER MERCHANT published pictures of a lumber convention held on one of them, which contained five million feet of logs. Such log supply grew continually more difficult and uneconomical, and the mill gradually slowed down, and in 1946 it blew its last whistl:. In its heyday the mill manufactured more than 20 million feet of lumber annually.

Frank Lynch is president of the Benson Lumber Company, and announcement of the approaching liquidation comes from him.
