REACTION IN TRADE.
This, However, il Customary After
Holiday Business.

Reports to Bradstreet's for the week
show customary reaction after the holi-
day trade. Merchants have commenced
annual stock taking Decidedly mild
weather has prevailed which has MOTTO
ably affected general trade. In northern
part of the State there is snow enough
for sleight's, while in the southern sec
ton it has disappeared. Further reports
show prosperity beyond precedent in 1906
an increase of approximately eight million
dollars in country's production in all kinds
of farm produce: Of this increase Yer
mont's proportonate gain is a substantial
one. more particularly IN hay and dairy
products. Reports show an increase in
national bank clearings of eleven million
dollars; in connection with this fact will
he noted the acts of recent State legis-
lature in granting of charters for new
banks TO be located in Vermont. one new
bank is to commence business this month
while three others are actively engaged
with necessary preparations 20 open soon.
The increase in building expenditures in
United States Appropriated seven million
dollars Of which amount as has pre-
viously been noted, Vermont contributed
over n quarter of million. In connection
with volume of business transacted spec
ial notice should he made of small num-
her of failures in United States for 1896;
business failures reported were 9S7j,
decrease OF 1900 as compared to 1905. The
high standards established for year just
closed make predictions as to 1904. pecu-
liarly difficult. 1t may be said. however.
that the outlook for year just opening Is
very favorable. Probably never before
was the volume Of future business so
large. In many cases the entire output
of mills is elready sold ard wholesalers
have been very active regarding spring
business.
Reports from lumber districts show
large amount Of timber Is being cut and
large gangs of choppers are in the woods.
Deep snow is reported in some sections
which handiCaps a rapid handling of logs
but on the whole much progress has been
made. In the northern part Of the State
harvesting of ice crop has already COM
monced; a large quantity of excellent
quality is being cut. Freight traffic is
heavy. Large shipments of granite are
being made marble mon are active, and
demand for slate stock is still large. In
latter the demand all during the yeav
for mantle and billiard stock has been
such as TO force prices up. Collections are
quiet among dealers in stone produce of
all kinds. Rumors of anticipated labor
troubles in granite. slate and building
lines are heard but they nave not assum-
ed any definite shape. II is expected.
however, that the grievances will be so
arranged that the break, II any, will have
but small effect on output in aggregate.
Failures in State for the week comprise
