(American Lumberman) This week's issue contains a variety of statistical information rogardin the trade ,'.n 1945, expressions of iha j views of many prominent lumberman ! i as to lumber probabilities in 1916. a ' review of the : investigations .- of the i Chamber of Commerce of the United! States as to the business outlook, and ! much other material that should be j of interest to every fact that is apt to ' havo a bearing upon the i.ear future oi me craue. At this time a few facts stand out with striking prominence. And per- naps tne foremost or these has to do with the 'so-called "substitutes for lumber. : Conditions resulting from the European war have advanced the prices of some of the other structural i materials to a point where they have I ceased to oe substitutes or even com petitors. Structural steel Is ' today obk.imtble only from the warehouses at prices that compared with quota tions prevailing a few months ago are almost fabulous. Inquiries for steel cars by some of the railroads have developed the fact that tho increased cost of the steel entering into modern box cars are practical prohibitive, and in addition the railroads ere finding that they can not hope to secure de livery of such mnterial short of many months. Construction of lnrce ntA.il buildings is being delayed nil through the countiy on account of tho diffi. culty of securing delivery.. And the cnange that lias taken piaco in the steel market is having its effects in remote places. For ,. exxmplo, the American Lumberman was told this week that the increase in tho price of steel barrels Is causing paint I and oil: producers to turn to th wooil luctuvi ui;aiu. . ijiu iiaiiy papers inur- . saay ot tins weeK came-l dispatches I.

Many astonishing testimon- bas the this peace talk has come out of noth ing... : ';:,,:-:;i::,v . To the extent that our prosperity is built upon war business we must ex pect to face l. a readjustment when peace comes. , The financial balance of the world is upset. No one is able to say today with any certainty what the readjustment will have to be. No one knows definitely what the finan cial status or possible commercial productiveness of the central powers will be at the close of the war.. . No one knows definitely what foreign competition the United States will be called upon to meet at home, nor do we know just how far we shall be able to go in extending the demand for our goods in those . countries where the war has entirely over turned the routine of trade. . We do not know how much the enmitise of the war are going to affect commerce after peace is declared. All of these thinfrs are more or less uncertain, and it follows that if the business inter ests of the United States go on pyra miding indefinitely they must expect a day of . reckoning that will be dis astrous to those who have forgotten' the principles or sound business man agement. ; '-. - Reverting to the consideration of the outlook in the, lumber industry, it seems now that much depends upon the volume of production. Undoubt edly the producing capacity of the in dustry is too grea( relation to tha demand of normal times. If present stimulation of prices is goinir to re sult in material addition to the aggre gate capacity reaction will coma eventually, but for - the next few months lumbermen may expect' an ac tive demand unless they put them selves on the defensive bv increasing production to a point where it over takes even the present abnormal de mand and buyers begin to see that n surplus is accumulating. : The man ufacturer whose stock is badly broken is, of course, justified in putting on a nijrht shift for a brief period ir. or der to round out his stock, but th.? manufacturer who doubles his iais have been received from those ; who have been helped by Hyomei. , A complete outfit is inexpensive and includes an inhaler, dropper, and sufficient Hyomei for several weeks' treatment. . Perhaps the strongest evidence that can be given to doubters, is the fact that the La Grande Pharmacy has, ia much faith in Hyomei that they sell every package under a positive guar- . antee to refund the money if it does not relieve.
