Tho following Item nppenred In tho Now York Sun in a Washington dis patch. "Tho 'buy a balo of cotton' move ment, started in Washington by sym pathetic southern Democrats to assist In carrying tho cotton crop during tho war poriod, has its counterpart in tho 'buy n thousand foot of lumber' or 'buy n bunch of shingles' suggested to President Wilson by tho socrotary treasuror of tiio Kelso (Wash.) Com mercial Club. "A letter written by J. L. Spnrllng, secretary-treasurer of tho club, to President Wilson nnd mndo public horo today, sounded a discordant noto In tho prosperity chorus that has boon going up from administration sources holiday season. Tho general re port Is thnt stocks nro. low and , with new markets on tho Atlnntlc nnd in Great Britain lumbermen be-1 llovo that their product will soon bo taken nt prices that will permit I somo profit. Were tonnage nvallablc at roa-' Bonublo rates, much lumber would now bo booked for delivery to Great Britain and Atlnntlc const ports, Tho absence of suitable stenmer spneo Is tho olio noticcablo feature of tho situation and ex porters nro clamoring for a rhanco to ship their product. Inquiries havo boon particularly numerous from England, Europe nnd tho east ern part of tho United States, but thoro has boon small opportunity to ship. In tho coastwise trade, the vessels now operating nro carrying. enrgoes of tho owners nnd tho out- sldo Bhlppor Is unnblo to get spneo. ' Likewise, llttlo lumbor Is moving I to tho United Kingdom bocauso oth er cargo is crowding it out. So great has been tho demand fori tonnage to carry wheat and flour to the 'belligerent nations that! freights havo been forced up to around 40 for both steam nnd i Ball. It Is cstlmntcd thnt about 150 per cent of tho Pacific North west's surplus of foodstuffs has already been forwarded nnd it is, likely to bo nt least two months boforo carriers will bo Booking lum ber enrgocs. So urgent lias been tho demand for vessola to enrry lumber thnt made ! ' HoiaS'lots of things 8 look y$m$N They are pretty arid ; you will find them convenient.
