PRICE OF TIMBER.
LOWERED BY TWO SHILLINGS. By Telegraph.—Press Association. Taihape, Last Night. At a meeting of the Main Trunk sawmillers at Ohakune on Thursday, a lead was taken for getting back to normal in reducing the price of building timber. While increasing royalties and reduced output warrant an increase, with a view to cheapening the erection of workers’ homes, the on-truck price at Ohakune of building heart, rough heart, ordinary building, scantlings, secondclass scantlings, and sarking have been reduced two shillings per hundred feet. The Waikato price lists have been adjusted to Main Trunk prices, all of which will take-effect to-day. Farmers’ fencing battens have also beep reduced by five shillings.
