 lan. 



The fli-st business was the report of the 

 committee appointed at the last meeting to 

 attend the National Lumber Manufactur- 

 ers' Association held in Washington, D. C. 

 in April. Mr. WagstafT as chairman of 

 that committee statctl mat they had con- 

 dudetl not to recommend affiliation at the 

 present time, owing to the fact princi- 

 pally that it was dominated largely by 

 southern lumber interests, and the benefits 

 derived therefrom and therefore would 

 hardly be proportionate with the expense. 

 Similar remarks were made by the other 

 members of the committee. Messrs. M. J. 

 Colby and Wm. .7. Starr, after which their 

 report was adopted. 



The question of prices came next, and 

 adverse to the price list committee's rec- 

 ommendation to advance prices all along 

 the line, the old list was re-affirmed and 

 \vhich we publish in connection with tliis 

 report. 



The election of officers for the ensuing 

 year was the next order of business and 

 a nominating committee of five, appointed 

 by the chair, consisting of H. C. Humph- 

 rey. W. .1. Starr. C. S. Curtis, .1. H. 

 Van l>oren and W. .T. Wagstaff. reported

The question of the aiipoinlii I ol' iii- 



siiectors to operate under the Inspection 

 Bureau of the National Ilaiilwood Lumlier 

 Association in the state of Wisconsin was 

 brought up by Mr. Wagstaff, a member of 

 the National Association committee for 

 Wisconsin. He suggested that the Wis- 

 loiisin membership recommend the names 

 of some good inspectors in their resiiective 

 districts for appointment liy the surveyor 

 general, stating that such action, when 

 accomplished would f.icilitate business and 

 greatly Itenelit the luiiibernien of Wiscon- 

 sin. The matter was fully discussed and 

 Mr. Wagstaff's suggestion favorably re- 

 ceived.
