from B.OOO.OOO to 7.000,000 feet; tho n ver
tigo of all is probably not over 1,500,000

cull bo mastered only by year3 of practical

thoy do nothing but sort lumber ns it nr

era nro tho individuals who receive orders
mid act na nncnts for buyers in foreign
markots. Such ngents place orders with
a dealer In export, or shipping grades, nnd
when tho lumber has occn tallied nud
loaded on board n vessel, tho ngent In Now
York pays tho bill. Tims tho dealor In ox
port stock really has nothing to do with
exporting, mid seldom has direct dealings
with tho foreign buyer. A fair idea of tho
