 uniliTlnklni; wan fully up to expiriatlon, Lumber was only one of several 

 bulkllm; tunterlnlH ahown : but It held n pre-eminent place amoni; other* 

 and was well nrrnnued and Katlsfactorlly carried out. .\ leadlni: feattire 

 of the show wn« a series of nilnlnliire house of wood, constructed in repre- 

 sent homeH iif dIfTcTent sIzeH ami siylen, from those of moderate preten- 

 hIouk to InrKi' and eommodioiiK Imuses. It has lieen deraonntrated that

 tional Lumber Mnnufncturcni' .\ssoelatlon had a good exhibit of between 

 thirty and forty kinds of woods, such as constitute the hulk of the stock

 attractive bulldInK material for homes; and that It Is entitled to a promi- 

 nent place In construction of many kinds, as mill work, brldces. and
