LUMBER is STEADY
AND OUTLOOK GOOD
MUCH INQUIRY FOR YELLOW
PINE, AND SOME ORDERS
PLACED.

Inquiry for yellow pine has been
brisk during .A.:o last several days, For
rest county lumbermen report today,
especially from the North and East.
Some good orders have been received,
and while optomism still prevails,
there has been some slackening OF
business over three weeks ago
There are rumors and rumors con-
corning matters affecting the local
timber industry. many of them based
upon nothing. These are being given
but little consideration by the manu-.
facturers. however.
Shipping conditions are becoming
worse. today's news dispatches say.
and fabulous demands are being made
By ocean going vessels Cor the use of
their crafts. This condition cannot ex-
fist indefinitely. and the more optomis-
tic manufacturers and dealers believe
that the foreign governments soon will
find 1t necessary to take charge OF the
freight lines and import the much
needed lumber for building. manufac-
turing and railroad uses.
In the mean time, the big plants and
dealers here are centering their at
tention toward placing their stock
with American buyers, and are doing
but little figuring on export trade.
The demand has been centered in
pole stock and boards of all kinds and
description. The demand has been
particularly heavy for No. 2 boards
which shows an average increase in
price of fifty cents. Prices are hold
ing firm and steady with tendency
to advance. Unnormal conditions ex-
ist, however. but the outlook is consid-
cred much brighter with every indica-
ton of a return of good business. The
clearing of weather in the East and
North is expected to produce good
business when spring buying COM
mences, which it is believed will be in
the next few weeks. The mill men
feel very encouraged and are operat-
ing their mills accordingly. Mills are
rejecting some orders because of this
feeling of optimism and hesitancy
shown by buyers in making purchases.
Heavy rains throughout the lumber
. section has somewhat impeded log
gfng operations, but most mills are
running on practically full time.
A report received here has it that a
mill at Tuscaloosa, Ala, has secured
an order for six million feet of pole
stock at $22 (. o. b. cars This is con-
sidered an extraordinary high price as
pole stock has been selling around $40
in this territory.
Rains of last week have caused an
inundation of all low lands, flood
warning having been issued for the
Pearl, Pascagoula and Chickasahay
Rivers during the early part of this
week.
Prices are holding their own and
railroads report that a good volume of
business is moving !
Building operations have been re- /
sumed on small scale, financial con-
ditions having improved somewhat. /
The increase in the price of cotton is |
believed to have helped this along, cot !
ton having reached a level of eight I
cents with every indication that it 4
will improve under the heavy foreign
demand. z
