THE STORM AND MBER.

The Rutland News in commenting on
the storm prints the following:
"'rhc logging business in Vermont has
picked up during the past few days.
thanks 10 the generous fall of snow
Among the things in this region which
along with death and taxes, may be &C
counted tolcrably sure are the ice and
snow crop. II they are not harvested in
Nne-half OF the year they are IN the
other"
1t is probably safe to say, however
that the prices of different grades ot
lumber Will remain at the point to whict
dhey advance AS result of the inabil-
i,Y of lumbcmen during the carly part
az the winter to conduct operations. IN
the case of the necessaries OF industry
II seems 10 be easier to raise them 10
lower rates, and lumber and coal seems
To- be included in this category.
Ihc effect Of this condition of affairs
as regards lumber is we'll set forth by
the Waterbury Record as follows:
Tie price on al! kinds of lumber con
tnues to advance. This is not much
satisfaction to lumborme whose mill
yards arc less than half filled. Tae high
price for lumber makes the prospect 70,
building grow less and less. The day
Is passed for tue present when it is
half for material ana half for labor"
Yhe inevitable result of this increa sc
in the price OF lumber will be to stimu-
late the use Of brick, various kinds OF
stone ard concrete blocks in the erection
Of different kinds Of structures, and te
ultimately increase the ncn-combustibls
character Of buildings.
