Part of $4,5o0,ooo Appro- piration Is to be Expend
 ed in City.

Pine Bluff and Southeast Arkan- sas will share in the benefits to be derived from the expenditure of the appropriation of $4,500,0G0 authorized Tuesday, at Kansas City, by the Southwestern Bell Telephone con- pany, according to District Manager w. l.. Jones, although Mir. Jones states he is not in position to cite any particular work that is to be done in this territory, at this time.
 MT. Jones stated that the installa- ton of a new and additional section to the switchboard at the exchange at Fl Dorado has already been decided upon, at a cost of $5,000 to $6,OOO, and that the board already has been delivered, and will be installed with in a few days.
 Although MT. Jones and other of ficials of the company could make no announcement yesterday relative to the plans of the company for lm- provements or extensions here and in this territory, it is understood tenta- tive plans and propositions were sub mitted some time ago to the higher officials of the company, and that in all likelihood engineers in the em- ploy of the company will visit this city and district in the near future, to investigate these matters and make report and recommendation.
 It was announced at the meeting of the high officials at Kansas City Tuesday that the lines of the com pany in Arkansas, Missouri and Okla homa are to be put in the best pos sible condition, exchanges arc to be enlarged and improved wherever nec- essary, and all other steps are to be taken for the continued improvement and extension of the service, this being the continued policy of the old individual companies which are now consolidated under the one manage nient and control

PINE LUMBER DEMAND GOOD.

Kansas City, Feb. 6.-The trade ba- rometer of the Southern Pine associa- ton for the third week in January re- fleets the most hopeful situation the lumber industry has faced in some time. Production of lumber was only 80 per cent of normal, and orders 115 per cent of normal. This will enable manufacturers to get some of their surplus stock, accumulated at a time when the car shortage was most acute, marketed. The mills, however, will not increase production, as this would again tend to hamper trade by ver-production.
