LUMBER DEMAND
SHOWS INCREASE

Many Of the leading lumbermen
OF the south, in special reports to the
Manufacturers Record as to the pres
ent condition and the outlook Of the
lumber trade. show that the demand
is already In excess Of the production
and Of transportation facilities avail
able for quick handling. Owing to al
most unprecedented rains for three or
have been seriously hampered, with
great scarcity and high prices Of labor
the cost Of lumber is tending steadily
toward higher figures. Within the
last thirty days there has been noticed
a growing shortage Of cars, and now
lumber dealers are anticipating much
difficulty in deliveries. Building OPP
erations Of all kinds are rapidly in
creasing, and the lumber producers
warn contractors and prospective
builders that for some years to come
lumber will probably tend to advance,
since labor and every other. factor in
saw mill work 10 increasing in cost.
Not q single report Indicates the
slightest expectation Of any lower
prices. Already the home demand is
outrunning the current output, and
as soon as ocean shipping is available
an enormous demand from Europe Is
anticipated. At present the freight
rates abroad are almost prohibitive of
much trade, although even these exor-
bitant figures do not entirely block
foreign trade. One large lumber oper-
ator reports ocean rates at $50 per
1000 feet.
