Long-Bell Forest Deal Nears Will Have Pacific Northwest Impact
A major option on 75,000 acres of Weyerhaeuser timber in the Cowlitz valley is being finalized by Long-Bell Lumber of Kansas City. The tract holds about 2,000,000,000 feet of yellow fir and could fetch around $6,000,000. If consummated, the purchase would create a vast lumber system with mills, yards, railroads, and equipment, and would mark a significant shift in Pacific Northwest timber operations guided by Robert Alexander Bell. The deal follows past large transactions in the region and positions Long-Bell as a major Pacific Coast player with plans for a 900,000,000 feet annual capacity mill near the Cowlitz area.
