 REPORT OF SAL 



May 10, 1921 



EXPLANATION 



IS REPORT OF SALES is based on all sales made for ten days ending May 10, 1921, reported to the 

 statistical exchanges in Kansas City, Alexandria, Hattiesburg and Birmingham by the companies reporting 

 thereto and by said exchanges reported to the Southern Pine Association. 



The figures shown hereon are arrived at by deducting from the delivered price of sales reported, transportation 

 charges computed on the basis of long leaf weights, and are averaged from the reports of all of said exchanges and 

 represent the realization f. o. b. mills as thus computed for each grade and size. 



This report does not represent the price received at the mill, because the same basis of weights is used for both 

 short and long leaf pine. But, by adding to the realization f. o. b. mills as shown, the cost of transportation on the 

 long leaf basis of weights on any rate of freight, the average price secured in the market on said sales may be determined. 



Where the item reported is not shown in the last report of sales, the next previous report of sale will be taken 

 as representing the market value on that item, provided it was reported not over 30 days previous to the current report. 

 Sales shown herein are for the current period, unless otherwise noted. The numeral ' following a price indicates it 

 has been brought forward from the first preceding report; the numeral * indicates it has been brought forward from the 

 second preceding report; the numeral ' indicates it has been brought forward from the third preceding report.
