Strategy[]

To avoid starving your Paper production of Wood when building (or more commonly while letting houses ascend), it might be wise to let the Paper mill retrieve Wood directly from two Lumberjack's huts, without a Market place in between. The Paper mill will automatically retrieve Wood from any Lumberjack's huts within its Influence area.
