 company will contlnii 

 Its mills until the preaent supply nf logs Is denned up. T 

 now has lops to last a few weeks, .\fter these have been sawed It la 

 the plan of the company to reduce ;t.s output about fifty per cent. Thla 

 seems to be the senerni policy of the lumber firms In this territory since 

 the war broke out In Europe, and If the hostilities continue for a great 

 length of time. It is expected that there will be a heavy curtailment of 

 output throughout this territory. The manufacturers are well supplied 

 with lumber, and with the export trade cut off they will not care to 

 Increase their slocks. The reports received Indicate that small mills Id 

 the country arc curtailing production greatl.v. 



The dcmnnd for furniture b:is not been so brisk as usual throughoot 

 the summer months. Drouth In this territory damaging crops haa had • 

 ilepressing influence, nnd now the European war has further cloudi'd the 

 outlook. W. V. Davidson, head of the Standard Furniture Company, one 

 of the large concerns o{ this district, says that bis plant is not opi rating 

 nt full cnpnclty. but be is hopi'fiil of business assuming greater propor- 

 tions during the fall months. 



The Davidson. Hicks & Green Company, which has i>e<-n opernllng 

 extensively in Fentress county in getting out hardwood lumber, has aiis- 

 pended operation, throwing about 250 men out of employment. The 

 European war and the genernl tone of business is the cause of the 

 suspension.

Acting Chancellor Cherry banded down an Interesting opinion In the 

 chancery court here in the case nt Cohn & Goldberg, a local lumber Arm, 

 against ttie Walton- McDowell Construction Company, holding in favor 

 nf the lumber firm in the matter of material lien for lumher used In 

 (be skeleton forms in concrete structural work. Chancellor Cherry eoB- 

 tnlned the contention for n Hen. giving as a basis of bis ruling that 

 gunpowder, though exploded in l>lastlng. Is nevertheless the contributing 

 factor in the designed result, and that the skeleton lumber though not 

 part cf the actual structure, contributed thereto. The skeleton lumber 

 involved was used In building concrete bridges on the Lewlsburg & North- 

 ern railroad.
