Houston, Thursday. January ..
Local jobbers report n moderate bust
ness In most lines, but as no one expects
10 sell any great amount of merchandise
during the first half of January. the stock
trade so far has been In no wise dis
appointment. While nearly every firm re-
ports some decrease in orders, as conf
rared with the preceding month, yet at
the same time The territory covered by
Houston jobboi-s Is so large that tine ag-
eregate daily business makes a very good
showing. This is the season of the year
when IL seems natural to look forward to
the future. and it Is safe to say that while
there Is always n difference Of opinion.
jobbers AS It rule are anticipating a lively
spring trade. The farmers of this section
are preparing Tor extensive planting the
coming seasou and as this will cause an
increased demand for supplies from in
terror merchants. Houston as n wholesale
center will bi benefited thereby. Whlle
many planters will do credit business,
as usual. a large number will pay cash
for everything, and thus put a consider
able amount Of money IN circulation.
