LUMBER BOOM
NOW EXPECTED
NEW YORK AND OTHER DEALERS
ARE OPTIMISTIC AS TO THE FU-
TURE AND HAVE GOOD REA-
SONS FOR BEING so.

The Brooklyn Eagle Of recent date,
in speaking Of the lumber industry,
says:
with an early spring just around
the corner and the signing Of the dual
subway contracts almost in sight, the
forward to an approaching boom that
will take the form of unprecedented
building operations all along the routes
Of the proposed subways-
Builders have been anticipating this
boom for long time. and have await
ed anxiously the long controversy,
which has attended the planning Of
the new lines of travel. II the con-
tracts are signed soon, and 1t is pos
sible to commence actual building by
the carly spring, a marvellous year
for the lumber business is certain.
1.-THE opening of the Panama canal,
it was said today by a large lumber
dealer, means that many changes will
be made in the trade shortly. Then
lumber in large quantities would be
brought from Washington and Oregon.
That class of lumber is being brought
here now, but the freight is $50 thou
sand feet. But by the Panama canal
route this charge will be cut in half
zone of the most extensive lumber
dealers in the city said today: II look
for higher prices during the coming
season for the reason that every year
lumbermen have to go farther and
farther into the forest in order to get
the product that they require. Then,
again. they are obliged to spend more
money for the feeding and care Of their
help. What would have been salts
factory in the way of food and pro-
lection a few years ago is not SO now.
These additional expenditures must, Of
course. add to the cost Of lumber.
Then the open winter will tend to ad-
vance the price In lumber. No logging
has been done SO far in the Maine
forests and but little In Canada. On
the other hand. the consumption Of
finished lumber has been extensive, be-
cause the mild weather has permitted
building operations for nearly the en-
tire winter. The latter condition will
have q tendency to keep the prices.
1.-THE cutting of trees for lumber
extends all the way from Maine to
California, and from thu Great Lakes
to Texas now, and from North Caro-
lima and other southern states white
pine, spruce and henlock. North Car
DINA also furnished yellow pine and
and cypress.

F|SH|NGSMACKS
ARE ALL At SEA
VESSELS EITHER ON THE BANKS
OR ENRouTE TO PENSACOLA
WITH CATCHES.

All Of the smacks engaged in the
fishing industry of Pensacola are either
on the snapper banks on enroute home
with catches, but up to last night none
of the vessels put in appearance. 1t is
thought that some OF them will reach
port today, as a number OF the smacks
have already spent the average time in
making the trip to and from the banks.
No smacks were moored yesterday 1T
the wharf of the Warren Fish Com
pany or the E. E. Saunders & Co. dock,
and the scene presented at these
wharves on account of the absence of
all the smacks at one time is seldom
witnessed at these places.

The purpose Of fixing the time and
place of this meeting is to enable every

emit at the annual meeting of the

prominent publicists in America will
be present. Therefore the meeting Of
the league at this time, combining
with that of the conference, cannot but
result in far-reaching interest and in
duence.
Let us hope and urge that you will
find it possible to attend, and that from
our affiliation much good may come to
all. Cordially yours,
