NEWS RELEASE


For Immediate Release


                         PRELIMINARY VOTE COUNT SUPPORTS
                              WEYERHAEUSER NOMINEES


FEDERAL WAY, Wash., June 7, 2001 - Weyerhaeuser Company (NYSE: WY) today
announced that based on the number of proxies it has submitted to the
independent inspectors of election, Investor Voting Services, it appears that
the three Weyerhaeuser director nominees, following certification of the Annual
Meeting results, will be elected to the board of directors of Willamette
Industries, Inc. (NYSE: WLL).

Steven R. Rogel, chairman, president and chief executive officer of Weyerhaeuser
said, "Weyerhaeuser would like to thank the Willamette shareholders for their
support throughout this process. We are confident that the final outcome of
today's vote will clearly demonstrate that the Willamette shareholders want and
expect their board to enter into negotiations with Weyerhaeuser to reach a
mutually beneficial transaction. We have repeatedly stated that we are willing
to increase our offer above the current $50 per share price if Willamette would
sit down with us. We are prepared to immediately commence discussions with
Willamette to move the combination of our two companies to completion in a
cooperative manner. However, if Willamette continues to ignore what we believe
is the clear desire of the company's shareholders for a transaction with
Weyerhaeuser, we intend to nominate a slate of directors for election at
Willamette's 2002 Annual Meeting.

"I would also like to thank and compliment the employees of both Weyerhaeuser
and Willamette. Despite the potential distraction of the past six months'
activities, they remained focused on working safely and serving customers. I am
confident that a combination of the two workforces will create the finest
company in our industry - headquartered in the Pacific Northwest," he concluded.

Prior to the closing of the polls at the Annual Meeting, all proxy cards
received by Weyerhaeuser were turned over to the independent inspectors of
election who will tabulate the results. It is expected that the preliminary
tabulation will be provided to Weyerhaeuser and Willamette in two to three
weeks, after which both sides will have the opportunity to examine the proxy
tabulation. Weyerhaeuser will publicly announce the final results once they are
made available to the company.
