The Wholesale lumber trade contin-

volume OF retail sales remains heavy

ing industries j. great. says the
American Lumberman. Chicago. The
reason Is that retailers and factories
bought very heavily during the early
part Of the year and. having re-
ceived their lumber. are as fully
stocked as they care 10 bo al this

uuontly II a trlfle easier. but shows
no signs Of weakness anywhere.
The easiness " shown largely in

orders more freely than they have
done for some time. These orders are
taken on al previously established
prices. concessions being offercdtoniy

pressure for business. as their order

Supplies in consumers hands are b.

Production conditions have under

South. Hardwood mills especially
are rapidly cutting down their log re-
serves and many OF them are already
operating on hand-to.mouih basis.
This reduction in log supplies. how
ever. is no longer n great worry. as
