Optimistic outlooks for the mill| this coming season were express | ed by Mr. Rutherford today. He| declared that the company has enough orders for salmon box m‘ to operate for half a year from, the time work begins this spring. | “Lumber prices in the Pugzet| Sound district have advanced,” Mr. Rutherford said, “and we sold about one half million feet of clear lumber, of the airplane | type, and received an advance price of $10 per thousand more than last year. mon hoxes are harder for| the buyer to purchase this year, and as a result prices are good. As we manufacture a large per- centage of those made on the Pa- cific Coast we have enough or- ders to keep us going for some time on the manufacture of boxes alone.” George F. Weisel, who made a trip to Alaska and down the Yu- kon to Fairbanks last year, is now associated with the Juneau Lum- ber Mills, and will come north during the early part of March, Mr. Rutherford announced. The mills will open about the first of April, he said. Territorial/ Commissioner of | Education Lester D.
