=-< EVANSVILLE >•= 



There bus been little or no ehunge in liie liicnl hardwood market (luring 

 the past week or ten (lays. Tbc large hardwood luills here continue to 

 operate on an a>erage of eiRht hours a day, and tliere Is a feeling aniong 

 I he manufacturers th.st trade will gradually Improve, although no boom 

 111 business is leiibed for during the present year. Trade eontinnes to 

 come ill •spurts." .Vpril was the best month of tbc year up to this time, 

 and May will not bring In as large a volume of business as .\prll, althougb 

 Ibiiigs are opening up some and .Tunc looks promising to most of tbc 

 liardwood lumber manufacturers. Collections arc reported good and 

 prices are holding firm, and tbc manufacturers arc showing no disposition 

 to cut prices at this time. Quartered white oak and plain oak are In 

 normal demand, while poplar has been off for several weeks past. .\sh 

 remains firm nud hickory Is In fair demand, due to tbc fact that buggy 

 and handle factories are running on a fair time. The best demand Is 

 for walnut lumber just now. Since the war in Kurope started tile demand 

 lor walnut ba.s steadily increased, as this lumber Is used In the manufac- 

 ture of ^linstocks. (lum i* not in licavy demand now, due to tbc fact that 

 the furniture manufacturers are buying little. Xlore gum is used In tbc 

 manufacture of furiiittire than any other kind. .Manufacturers say there 

 is a good feeling in tbc trade just now and indications arc that business 

 in the south and southwest will Improve right along. Expert business 

 continues fair and m fact during the past two weeks the lumber manu- 

 facturers In this section sent more lumber abroad than during any other 

 two weeks of the present year. The lumber was sent t<» Kngland, South 

 .Vfrica and .\r,gontiP? Republic. Several cars were sent to the last named 

 country. This Is the first time that Evansvlllc lumbermen have sent stock 

 into that section of South .\ineriea and manufacturers here believe that 

 this has opened the way for other shipments. 



The retail lumber business here is better now than it has been at any 

 time this year. Planing mills are being operated on full time and there 

 is a good demand Just now for building materials of all kinds. It Is esti- 

 mated that prices on building materials arc from fifteen to twenty per 

 cent lower than they were this time last year. Hardwood flooring has 

 been in good demand for the past several weeks here as many residences 

 and (juile a few business buildings arc being constructed. Contractors 

 and architects say they have enough work in sight to keep them busy 

 the balance of the season. 



Business from box manufacturers Is reported to be quite satisfactory 

 and most of the l>o.\ factories in this section arc running on full time. 

 The implement and furniture trade is fair, while the buggy trade is 

 good. Carriage factories here arc being operated on full time and plow 

 manufacturers say the outlook is better than It has been for some time 

 past. l''urniture manufacturers report that cotton Is moving better In 

 the South and this moans something to the local manufacturers as the 

 South is their best field. The chair and table manufacturers also report 

 a slight picking up In business with more optimism pervading the trade 

 than for some months past. 



Taken as a whole tbc outlook is not one of discouragement but on the 

 other hand the manufacturers are feeling good and believe that business 

 conditions in general in the United States are better than the.v were 

 tlueo miinths ago. It Is pointed out that after the close of the war Id 

 Europe that .Vmerican manufacturers are likely to enjoy the greatest 

 era of prosperity in their history. The lumber manufacturers report that 

 I hey are getting ail the logs they want and that the prices arc a shade 

 lower than they were at this time last year. 



< MEMPHIS y- 



There is considerable irregularity In the hardwood market here. Per- 

 haps the most active feature is gum box boards. There is demand enough 

 to take up practically all tbc ash that is offered and there Is quite a 

 pronounced scarcity of gum box boards. Manufacturers of the latter 

 have sold up practically their entire output and they have been able to 

 secure somewhat higher prices within the past few days. There Is 

 possibly a little more inquiry for red gum but this does not seem to be 

 a .general condition. The lower grades of both cottonwood and gum 

 arc in reasonably active demand. The supply is not large and prices 

 are pretty well maintained. 



Only a fair business is being done In plain and quartered oak, both 

 red and white. It is said that the strike In Chicago has hurt the oak 

 market here to a considerable extent as Memphis is usually a large seller 

 in the Chicago market. Poplar panel stock Is reported in good demand
