It's Still a Bull Market! 



Every buyer likes to take advantage of whatever opportunities hap- 

 pen to be offered for getting bargains in materials. 



The attitude of the user of any commodity is naturally bearish — 

 because it's to his interest to be so. He wants prices to decline, and the 

 wish being father of the thought, according to some noted genealogical 

 authorities, he proceeds' to think that quotations are due for a slump. 



This is just a little hint to remind the buyer who is temperamentally 

 bearish that the signs are all ag'in him just now. Prices at this present 

 moment are not high ; in fact, on some items, considering the' intrinsic 

 value of the wood and its manufacturing cost, they are particularly low, 

 and this stock would make a good buy for anybody, be he wholesaler 

 or consumer. 



The mills have had some good weather during the past few months, 

 and have piled up considerable lumber. But consumption is running 

 ahead so fast that this incidental increase in production is merely an 

 anchor to windward, a kind of safety valve for the outlet of any particu- 

 larly rapid development of business. It is certainly not enough to jus- 

 tify any idea as to lower prices. 



Talk to people in other lines, from pig iron to dry goods,, and you'll 

 find that everybody is busy, and everybody's buying. That means firm 

 market conditions, with the tendencies constantly upward. Hence 

 our tip, based on conditions which anyone can analyze for himself, 

 is to buy. 



Incidentally, just remember that the best place to go for hard- 

 woods, including special orders, mixed cars and veneers and panels, 

 is Louisville. Address
