Representatives of about 95 per

the average of all branches the book
ings are about so per cent OF capac-
ity and the shipments somewhat In
excess. There has been slight,
though marked, increase of daily
bookings month by month since the
frst of August. Prices as rule are
well maintained, though In some
lines, as usual, there Is some cutting
on the part Of small producers who
were not represented. Without ex-

present regarding the future were
favorable"
