Your reporter in conversation with E. e
Doe, superintendent at the E. ID. Chandler
Co.'s mills, learned some facts as to the
probability of the work which will be done
by the company the coming season. He
believes the present depression Is only
temporary. The company will put In their
usual stock of logs and lumber with per-
haps some falling off of hard wood, as they
are carrying over two end q half million
feet OF dry ha. d wood lumber. From Can
Taylor OF Glover is to furnish them 250OO
feet of logs, ali the cut of Winslow &C.
Hanson's lumber in Glover, Winslow &
Hanson's cut on the Piper place, III. V.
Govro's cut of from $50, 900 feet to 800 900
feet on the Smith place, Taplin & Rowen's
on the Wheeler place and numerous small
lots from the whole region about this
vicinity. The veneer mill will also be
stocked, and already the machinery is
being installed. OF course he could not
tell definitely but, in his opinion, perhaps
= ho laC 90
will start up briskly. Orders are coming
in slowly at the present time; but this is
just the time when piano manufacturers
are taking stock, and not many orders can
be expected for a short time. Later, how
ever, we may look for the usual amount OF
business to be done by his company. Tap
lin & Rowell were consulted as to the out
look and informed the reporter that they
would put in a stock of from five to six
million feet of logs this winter, not quite
as much in this vicinity but more in Jay
and the west part of the county than ever
before. In their other business their sales
had been better than usual and the farmers
were not asking for as much credit as in
previous years. On the whole the business
situation is not as gloomy as many feared.
