Wood appears to be drug on the
market at present. That offered on
the market square is bringing only

supply. One lumber company has a
vast amount of hardwood piled in its
yards, another wood concern has hun
dreds of cords piled near the car barn.
The county has purchased no wood this
winter for its institutions and the mild
weather throughout has had bad
effect on the wood market.
