Some of the mills report that owing TO
the recent curtailment on the Pacific
coast by storms they have materially
extended their area Of sales in the
west; and while this is a temporary
condition, it is encouraging to note
that improvement is general among
all classes of lumber, and yellow pine
is enjoying at least its full share of it.
Current changes in the export trade
are insignificant when compared with
the volume of movement in normal
times, and of but minor Importance
under present conditions. The demand
from abroad is a veritabe cry from
Macedonia, which can be answered to
only a Unite dextent, and transpor-
tation costs and delivered prices which
at first appear prohibitive soon become
a matter of course Notwithstanding
the increasing difficulty in procuring
tonnage it seems that it is overcome
some way, and the shipments still keep
up to nearly the late levels. The Cen

in fact about normal, and a coed de-
mand comes from the River Plate,

Developments in the Southern Yel'
low Pine trade are hampered by trans
portation difficulties to an extent
which lends added importance to the
question of future demand as COM
pared with present business.
The possibility of shipping is now
the only limit of sales, and the very
fact that shipments have kept up so
well as they have is strong evidence
of the insistence of the call for ium-
Der, the percentage of car shortage be-
ing assignable more to the increase
in demand for cars than decrease IN
the number furnished. While prospects
for business when transportation be-
comes again normal naturally depends
somewhat upon generalization, enough
confederation is in evidence in the
shape of urgent demand to justify the
general feeling of optimistic belief in
ent healthy state of the market, and
the realization of business which az
present is not possible to transact.
With but very few exceptions re-
ports from market centers indicate
heavy demand from practically every
class Of trade, which is not only taxing
the capacity for making delivery from
the milis but drawing heavily on
stocks. Purchases of railroad material
are not only keeping up but increas.
ing, and the car shortage itself is bring
ing out requirements for repairs ana
new construction which are noticeably
augmenting the volume of lumber used
in that line.
