BILE Working Forces.

Bradsireets Burlington office reports
that October this year presented con-
ditiOns among the state manufacturing
interests a little different from those
for tho same month of a wear ago.
Added TO the shortage of help generally
was the widespread epidemic which fur
thcr reduced the available working
forces. DELAYED shipments have caused
hardShips. Mills, however, have been
operating as fully as possible and an
effort maintained TO send forward ship
ments. Buying for future use has con
tinued active, orders have been placed
tearly.,in order to insure delivery Linn
tied building work has restricted the
purchase Of building material. Whole
| sale firms handling food stuffs find some
damaged and spoiled goods attributed
to delay in transportation. The larger
retail merchants are considering sales
/ for the purpose of reducing present
stocks and in order to give the public an
4 opportunity to concentrate early on hol
idav shopping. Seasonable goods in
clothing are reported as moving reason
ably well.
