Copyright, 1924, The Casper Tribuns NEW YORK, Jan. 5.—Lumber men throughout the country casting up the results of the past 13 months, see another wonderful pe- ried of activity and prosperity in prospect for 1924. Last year was undoubtedly one of the most satiz- factory years in the history of the industry Phe year just closed,” said H. E. Berckes, sectetary-manager of the Southern Pine association, “has| bean void of any conditions, handi caps or detriments in the industry to mar its success. Figures now available indicate that there was a/ new high record established for de- | mand for building, surpassing that | for 1922, the previous banner build ing year, by about 26 per cent “There still is a great shortage of homes, business and industrial | ures in the country and the rajlroads are estimated to require | between 200,000 and 000 new freight cars per year for the next four years. They will also need further large quantities of lumber and timber for maintenance of way improvements.” Production in the mills of west- ern Washington and western Oregon for 1923 was greater thi A in any year since the war, accord- ing to the West Coast Lumbermen’s association. Mills of the association turned out 5,254,884.617 board feet in the last year compared with 4- 387,742,637 feet for 1922, 2,788,953,643 feet for 1921 and 3,824,022,479 feet for 1920. This was a gain of 20 per cent over 1922, 88 per cent over 1921 and about 38 per cent over 1920.

With the long delayed Japan reconstruction program +t last getting under headway, 1924 shipments are expected to reach at least a billion feet. South America, which bought 150,000,000 feet in 1923, is expected to increase its purchases one third but Mexico which accounted for 35,000,000 feet last year may fall below that figure because of tha present political disturbances. Aus- tralia which absorbed 150,000,000 feet last year, is counted on to re- quire about the same amount.
