Ai Slacko, representative of Bcedle Bros., big dealers of lumbar In San Francisco, Is on Coos Hay making n business visit. This Is tho first time that ho has been hero and ho Is looking over the situation and will visit tho different mills. Mr, Slacko In speaking of tho lumber market, says that there had been soiuq Improvement, but tho lumbermen are looking and honing for still better times. During tho past forty days, ho says, there has been a ralso In prlco of an nvorAgo of $.' a thousand, and ho says that ho looks for perhaps two dollars moro ralso boforo long. Causa of Improvement When asked to Just what ho at tributed tho raise In prices, ho said: "Tho pcoplo In tho grain countries havo had good crops nnd this has given thorn a general prosperity. Tho farmers arc doing moro build ing nnd Improving, and tho towns which nro tho center of theso farm ing districts nro nlso building, as Is tho caso whon prosperity comes. Tho lumbor ordors nro received moro from tho smaller towns, as tho larger cities hayp thplr bulldjng restrictions which mako it necessary to uso concrete brick or somo mntorlal other than lumbor. "Then in tho East also largo sums havo boon mado by filling war ordors and that, too, has had much to do with tho demand for lumbor." When nskod what effect tho closo of tho war would have, Mr. Slacko admitted that it would mean n boom for tho Pacific Coast lumbor busi ness if tho Europoan war was brought to n cIobo. Look for Penco Soon "And it seems to bo tho general opinion In business circles gener ally that tho war will not last much nftor next spring. Ono Indication of this fcollng is shown In tho snlo of stocks In concerns which nro organized for tho purposo of manu facturing and furnishing war order;. Of course, tho value of such ion corns, Innts only whtlo tho wnr is in progress. Tho profits may bo big In some cnscB, but a business of that nnturo Is nt an ond whon tho war ceases. Right now stock iu such concerns cannot bo sold as it could at an earlier date, for the ""'!..? ' S.yfJ" ".? lB". -on that men with money to In ;r"'r'I".rr """,.
