LUMBER PRODUCTION
HAS REACHED ITS PEAK
Slight Falling Oft IN Orders
Noted, HoWeUer.

Orders for and production Of softwood
lumber are practically equal. Produc-
tion has almost reached its peak. ac-
cording to the American Lumberman.
In orders there has been a slight falling
of which. however. has not weakened
the market and does not indicate any
marked change in buying policy. Home
building records are continually being
passed. and there is no sign Of a letup
N demand for softwood construction
lumber. but even should there be con-
siderable slackening In the buying OF
lumber for home building, seemingly 1t
will be counterbalanced by increasing
factory and rural demand. There is
reason to believe that. while business
may not be SO brisk during midsummer.
its volume will be so good that duilness
will hardly be noticed.
Prices have changed a little within
the last two weeks, for although demand
Is sufficient to hold them at present
levels. 1t Is not heavy enough to cause
further increases. A large number OF
cars are in transit but are being abb
sorbed without difflculty-an excellent
indication Of the fundamental strength
of the market.
With building Of homes reaching rec
ord breaking proportions. 1t Is evident
that there is going &c be some heavy
buying of furniture. When moving into
a now home people do not always buy
complete sets of new furniture, but they
do buy some. so the furniture manufac-
turers expect very keen demand this
fall. Such purchases will In turn benefit
the hardwood producers. AS matter Of
fact demand for hardwoods Is showing
a steady and certain expansion that
augurs we'll for the immediate future.

BASIC INDUSTRIAL
LINES MORE ACTIVE
Guaranty Trust Co.'s Survey
Reveals Factors Which
Have Improved.

Increased activity In fundamental
lines of industry in the United States
continues, despite the coal miners strike
and other adverse factors, according to
the monthly survey of the Guaranty
Trust Company of New York.
Pig iron production in May. 2,aO6, 900
tons. was ii per cent. larger than In
April, greater gain than was recorded
In the previous month";" says the sur
vey. "and production In the first five
months OF the year scored a gain of is
per cent. over the output In the CORE
spending months OF 1921. Steel ingot pro-
duction likewise increased more last
month than In April. The May figure
was 100000 tons, a gain of II per cent
over April and in the first five months
OF this year the output was SO per cent.
greater than In the corresponding period
last year. Unfilled orders of the United
States Steel Corporation at the end of
May, amounting to 5.254.0o0 tons. repre-
sented a gain OF $4,000 tons for the
month and were the largest total re-
ported In twelve months.
The production of bitumnous coal I'm
recent weeks has been considerably
larger than In the early weeks of the
strike. but the reserves are being re-
marked curtailment In industrial ac-
tvity unless the striking miners soon
resume work.
The number OF passenger automo-
biles and trucks produced In May 252,-
co., was a record output. Although the
prospect OF n continued heavy demand
for automobiles In the immediate future
is gratifying to producers, there Is a
noticeable disposition to exercise eau
ton In the matter of commitments
which might entail a repetition of the
sort OF embarrassment experienced
when demand fell off so sharply In 1921.
THE extraordinary activity In build
Ing continues. Contracts awarded In
twenty-sevcn Northeastern States In
May totaled 1885,. 500. 400. exceeding those
for April by 80. .i2s.5 500. and again estab-
fishing a new high record.
car Ioadings continued 70 increase
throughout May. allowance being made
for the decline in the last week of the
month. which was attributed to the In
terruption occasioned by the holiday.
In each week OF the month ended May
q the number OF cars loaded with com
modities other than coal exceeded the
number for any corresponding weel;
since loadings have been published.
The rate at which new freight cars are
being ordered is indicative of expected
further expansion in the volume OF
traffic"
