A fpnturp of the continued In.provpinpnt In the local dpniand Is the 

 pvldpnpp ihnt furnituri' and piano fact->rlpH, and others using higb-grade 

 lines of woods, are KPtlIng In a better share of orders. This Is best shown 

 In the Increasing purchases of hlghpr-gindp cnbinpt woods. Thp general 

 situation hprp In tbp city Is on a contlniipd up-grndp with the most likely 

 pvldenpe in the bpst clns.sps of lumbpr. Therp Is still a great deal of price- 

 cutting, or rather a continued dcprpsslon of iirlces, as Ihcrp Is a notable 

 absence of hystprlcal pdorts to go thp ctbpi- man one better In order to 

 secure the order. The situation still leaves a great dpal to be desired, but 

 Is continuing to show a healthier front. 



< PHILADELPHIA >■ 



Tlie local market has continued to lm|jrove during the past two weeks. 

 ISullding work Is keeping up in largp volump. Gpneral business has kppt in 

 line witli this improvement and this naturally is soon reflpcted In thp lum- 

 ber trade. If the coming winter happens to be an open one It Is predicted 

 liy leading men of Hip local trade that more ihan the average amount of 

 lumber will be used In this city. As prices have been comparatively low 

 some of thp city yards have awakpnpd to thp rpalization that they will surely 

 go up and have placed orders for future deliveries at favorable quotAtlons. 

 Already many mills have stiffenpd tbpir prices and tbey will surely ascend 

 all along the line. Thp hardwood markPt has been steady with an increasing 

 demand all along tbp line. Special gains have been reported In plain oak. 

 fpiartered fink, low-grade chestnut, basswood, ash, maple, gum and poplar, 

 lieeeb and birch are in great shape, while spruce is stronger than for years.
