<DIV><EM><FONT face=Verdana>The Forestry Building (open 9-5 daily), NW. 28th
Ave., between NW. Vaughn and NW. Upshur Sts., made entirely of fir, is a
weather-beaten structure 206 feet long, 102 feet wide, and 72 feet high.
In the vast interior, accentuating the great size, are fifty-two log pillars six
feet in diameter, that support the roof and a gallery of small logs. On
the floor are sections of great logs nine or ten feet in diameter, and polished
slabs of various kinds of commercial lumber. Doubtless the largest log
cabin in the world, 1,000,000 feet, board measure, of logs went into its
construction. It was a feature of the Lewis and Clark exposition of
1905. It is occupied only by a caretaker.</FONT></EM></DIV>
