number Of orders from dealers. and there
is strong hope that trade Will through
gu, the spring aih summer show more
signs of life than have characterized 1,
during the winter months. The conditions
are favorable for Building improvements In
the towns and cihes. which have been
necessarily delayed on account OF unlav-
orable weather. ail to supply these de-
mands alone will require AN increase in
the amount OF lumber that has been golng
forward. Some vay good sized railroad
bills have been placed within the past ten
days and the inquiries for this class OF
material are quito numerous. Mills are
therefore counting on sufficiency OF
saving orders throughout the spring. The
export demand Is OILY fair.
Except for local Use there Is not heavy
demand for Single.
