=■< NASHVILLE >-= 



I.uiiilior Urius in this iiiarkel report ini.rkeil iiiiprovcuieDt In the tone of 

 liaiihvood trade, lliisini'ss Is of Increasing volume, and there Is a tendency 

 to firmer prices. Inquiries are nuuierons, and while orders are conservative, 

 much smaller liian In ordinary times, the volume Is sufflcieiit to make thi- 

 total very satisfactory. On ncconnt of tlie curtallinent of producllon hard- 

 wood men look for values to harden materially when business Kets liack to 

 noriiial, as tin re are no inrse stocks. Tliere is a (lood demand for oak, ash, 

 iiickory and nlliei- hardwoods. The activity in walnut continues, this belni; 

 the blKcest feature of business tbronchout tills territory on account of the 

 export demand. Strong prices are beliip paid for walnut, and Immense sup- 

 plies are liein',- inoveil in middle nnd east Tennesse". 



=-< LOUISVILLE >= 



Much bettor conditions ore prevailing in the hardwood trade, accordlni! 

 lo lumbermen in this market. The demand Is better in evi'ry respect, In- 

 iiniries and orders beind more numerous, and consumers piacini; orders for 

 delivery later in the season. The sllnallon is olivloiisiy stronger, ond many 

 buyers are endeavorinB to protect thcnuielves from a possible Khortace of 

 material later on by "buying while the buying Is good" ; that Is, while prices 

 arc favorable and the supply Is adeiiuatc. The chances of a shortoge of 

 many items are good. Inasmuch as stocks of specialties ore not large now, 

 and the ciosini.' down of many mills, with the arrival of Ihe winter season, 

 will reduce operations lo such a point that with demand developing as It hnj 

 li .'I'U doing, the iil.vlous result will lie a marked scarcity. Values ore stiff- 

 ening already, even for staples, rialn oak, which has been dragging, espe- 

 cially In the lower grades. Is pickin;; np some, and Is expected to show 

 strength from now on. I'rlces are unsatisfactory, but are Improving. Ash 

 conlluues to sell well. I'oplar Is In active demand, dimension Inniber 

 also being a good seller. Iliglierprlced woods like inahcgany and quartered 

 oak have not been moving In i|iiiinlil.v, but business prospects in this direc- 

 tion are better. Veneer and panel concerns report Improved business and 

 good prospects.

Husincss In the hardwoml mirki t i~ lii.liiing up well and lumbermen be- 

 lieve that the year's trade will show a sntisfacloiy total. While buying 

 from consumers, as a rule. Is cinfiiieil mainly to I heir current needs, general 

 business Is so much better tlinl lie ibniand fioiii this source Is decidedly 

 :iiore active. Stocks at most plants have been light all the season and it Is 

 now neces.sary that the factories place larger orders It they wish to handle 

 the Increased business.
