BUSINESS OUTLOOK is GOOD
Panama Canal Open to Traffic by
February Next.

Panama Canal Open to Traffic by
February Next.
The account for 1918 is rapidly be-
ing cast up, and glance over the
completed record will show that,
while the year has been one of mixed
results, as are all years, the aggre-
gates are considerably better than was
the case with it's predecessor, both in
the volume of business transacted by
the merchants, the value of output
from industrial concerns, and the re-
turns accruing to producers and con-
sumers generally.
In the field of merchandise distribu-
ton, while some lines and some sea-
sons have shown a slump, business in
the aggregate for 1913 appears to be
we'll up to normal proportions. In
view of the fact that there is the usual
pre-inventory disposition to keep
stocks within bounds and that the
lumber trade continues quiet, present
iobbing business is very satisfactory.
Lumbermen expect a substantial in
crease in demands around the turn
of the year, and there is every logical
reason to believe that they will be
realized. The short buying during the
fall months leaves yards throughout
the country with a limited supply of
stock, and with a resumption of
building operations and improvements
it will be necessary that acquisitions
be made upon comprehensive scale.
1t would appear reasonable that such
a development would occur with the
opening of spring at the farthest.
There can be no question that the
farming sections Of the country are
in a prosperous position, probably the
most prosperous in the history of the
country. The crops now practically
marketed were up to the average
from quantitive standpoint, while
considering the prices received, they
were among the most valuable ever
harvested, and they should exert g
powerful influence in stimulating de
mands for building materials.
In February the Panama canal will
be formally opened to traffic, and the
results of the lowering of freight
rates to the Atlantic seaboard, to
gether with the demands entailed BY
building, consequent upon handling
the influx of new population which
will come to the Pacific coast, maxi
it probable, indeed, that the near flu
ture will witness not only the mos
active demands, but the most prosper
Gus conditions that the lumber indus
try of this section has ever known.
There is more money held in tn
banks of the Pacific northwest thai
at any time in the history of this SEE
ton, as indicated by the compilation
of the state bank examiners, wbic
show considerable increase in dc
posits in state banks alone, as con
pared with a year ago. AS condition
adjust themselves under the regime G
the new tariff bill, it does not appea
that it is to WELD a controlling Unfit
ence in affecting values to a degre
that will seriously affect either Anne
lean trade or American industry.

Cotton Market Breaks.

New York.-There was a sensational
break in the cotton market Monday
under heavy general selling, which fol
lowed the publication of the census re-
port. The highest published private
estimate of the ginning was around
12,S00,O00 bales, and local statisticians
claimed that the census figures Of
12,92S,O00 pointed very strongly to a
crop considerably in excess of recent
official estimates.
