 In Increased orders on the part of the rnllronda. The railroads have more 

 recently begun In place ordcra for cam and other equipment and a number

n for n long while and the probability lliat tli' i Im.ilng both

M'-anwhlle automohlle maniifactiirers and makers of vcblclea and agrl- 

 riiliiiral Implements of all kinds, are taking good ijuanlllles of loutberu 

 hardwoods. Furnflure manufacturers are also In the market to n moderate 

 extent and. despite the Chicago strike, there la an Increased demand for 

 iI'Mirliig. Interior trim, and other har-Jwood material used in the building 

 inide. This latter Is expected to still further Increase as the spring season 

 |irogressC8, as there is every Indication that building operations will be on 

 a substantially larger scale. Thi' demand Is reported very good for both 

 plain and quartered oak In the hlgln-r and lower grades and prices are 

 Well maintained. .\sli and hickory are among the better sellers though they 

 (ire not (ilTered In a very large way. Trices are strong. Cypress Is mov- 

 ing in a ratiier more satisfactory manner and poplar Is also selling well, 

 lied gum is in more active demand than it has lu>u for a long while and 

 much encouragement Is felt over the possibility that thick quartered reil 

 Kum may be adopte<l as the olDcial material for the nianiifaciiire of gun- 

 stocks by the British fiovcrnnient. The broadening demand for red 

 gum is well Illustrated In the sale of 00 rors of this material for sblp- 

 iiient to Italy by a prominent manufacturer at Charleston, Miss. This la 

 the largest single foreign order ever booked In red gum. Sap gum Is selling 

 well but prices arc still somewhat unsatisfactory. It Is doulitful if tbp 

 <l"m.nn<l for the lower grades of cottonwood and gum Is quite so keen ns It 

 was a short time ago, as the manufacturers of sawn and veneered shocks 

 rc doing a rather less active business than licretofori'.

The rejuvenation of poplar Is one of the most encouraging features of 

 till' hardwood situation. All grades of this wood are moving well at 

 present, and some sawmills are being operated with nothing but poplar 

 logs, lu view of the relatively better demand for this class of stock. 

 Common poplar Is probably the best seller, and grades which work Into 

 siding arc In good demand, but oil along the line the trade is good. This 

 Is a change for the better which lumbermen are glad to sec, as poplar 

 has been weak for some time heretofore. Common plain oak and good 

 qiinrtered are selling well. Good thick plain oak Is also In demand, the 

 fact that there Is so little of It to be had emphasizing the strength of 

 the call for this class of stock. As a matter of fact, In spite of the 

 fact that a good many mills are operating spasmodically, stocks are pretty
