YELLOW PINE NOTES.

(From American Lumberman.)
The long discussed car shortage
has arrived.
Curtailment of output has already
begun.
Producers at certain points are be-
ing favored.
Manufacturers are learning that
what they thought was a boom, is de-
velopment of legitimate demand.
Prosperity afforded by the greatest
crop in country's history is increasing
demand for lumber.
Railroad car shops are all running
full time and train loads of Crippled"
cars are being rushed in for immediate
repair.
Conditions mean increased pressure
for car material for many omnths.
Export situation is extraordinary
it is estimated that at New Orleans
there is an accumulation of 1,2OO cars
of lumber awaiting ships, and 400 at
Port Arthur. Freights are going
higher and higher. Europe is low in
lumber stocks. South American de-
mand is increasing. Largely increased
demand is expected from Argentina
with the rapidly increasing activity in
cattle and packing industry.
Paving blocks and silo stock are
rapidly increasing in use, assuring in
creased demand for yellow pine lum.
Der for these uses.
The tightening of car supply tends
to increase demands from all classes
of buyers to replenish stocks.
In the light of prevailing conditions
it seems safe to predict that yellow
pine, even in the face of most adverse
circumstances never again will sag to
It's recent low level.
REIMBURSEMENT of grain rates to New |
Orleans is responsible for bookings |
or export through this port of $780,
700 bushels-an unprecedented figure.
This grain movement may release suf-
icient cars to somewhat mitigate the
lumber situation in the gulf states.
Yellow pine men are no longer en-.
ouraging that dread of the Panama
ANAL which characterized them
ear ago.
Altogether yellow pine situation is
romising, and but for car shortage
'ould be at high tide.

MONKEYS PELLAeRA PROOF.

Savannah Telegram to the New
York Herald.)
The experiments which the Gov
eminent is conducting at the Marine
Hospital in an effort to find the cause
and cure for Pellagra is about to
fail because the monkeys sent
here for experimental purposes seem
to be immune to it.
There are nineteen of the monkeys
Two OF them have been feeding for
two months on diet believed to be
the cause of the disease, but they
are as healthy now as the others.
Another pair have been inoculated
with virus calculated to produce the
disease In the event it is caused by
germs, but these are the friskiest and
healthiest monkeys In the collection.

HOUSEHOLD NOTES

Venetian in a soft shade Of ecru
is being very much used for the trim
ming of smart demi-saison gowns 1t
is combined with finger-width border
ings Of fur.
Many beautiful ribbons have been
shown recently They are in velvet
broche, and in coloring, design and
quality they frankly surpass anything
ever produced.
Buckles and slides of various kinds
will be very much used during the
coming winter season. since they are
indispensable as accessories to the
directoire coats.
Striped materials are being very
much used for tailored gowns. Gem
orally speaking, they are very becom-
ing, especially if the stripes are COM
paratively narrow.
Even the new tailored collars have
not escaped the Robespierre fashion.
They have the long pointed effect and
roll away from the throat in real
Robespierre fashion.
Lacy openwork effects are used
INTERCHANGEABLE with laces of mod
erately light weight.
The new pleated dresses cling
closely to the figure and are made in
such measurements that they could
not fly out TO any great extent, even
If the pleats were drawn out.
There is a tendency toward small
er hats; but the most important thing
is not the size, but that it should be
simple and becoming. The most sue
cessful hats are always simple.
Charming afternoon gowns of white
satin are trimmed with black chan
tilly lace. One very pretty model of
supple white satin has black messa-
line draped over the skirt and
bodice.
There is a novelty bag made of
black taffeta, trimmed with the old
fashioned quillings of our grand
mothers day. These bags are mount
ed on jeweled frames and are
carried Cordeliere style.
Some of the new blouses have
shoulder straps. These extensions
are generally of the same material
as the girdle and are a contrast over
lace or tulle These. straps are effec-
lively trimmed with buttons
Some of the novelty dresses are
trimmed with marabout on collar.
cuffs and in the edge of narrow vests.
Some coat dresses use this finish to
outline waist extension, which takes
the form of a cutaway coat
The woman who wishes to combine
beauty with utility will use serge.
Blue and brown are the favorite col
ors; gray and green are good. A
dress Of serge trimmed with black
satin and lace can be very smart.
The most striking novelties in
veilings are the various chenille
dotted tuxedo wells. The clever group
ing of chenille dots makes all sorts
of complicated fiarol and scroll pat
terms with very effective results.
Collars and cuffs of bright-colored
cloth or velvet are seen on some OF
the new suits. For instance, a suit
of beige color had a collar of a gray
and-white striped suit was of chamois
colored cloth.
