larger softwood mills, wuh four
teen per cent ubove production.
Operations of southern pine mills
are somewhat curtailed becuuse of
wet weather, und the Inland Km
plm and Culll'nrnla pine regions
are going Into the winter period of
low production, according to the
American Lumberman, Chicago.
PevelnpmeuiH In the southern
states, especially Kloiida and along
the Gulf coast, ure consuming large
quantities of lumber und drawing
heaily on local producers as well
as the shorttenf mills of Georgia
and the CuioIIuuh, und big cargoes
of fir and redwood are being
brought in through the Panama
canal.
Huildlng is less active In the
north ami north west, though win
ter construction will be at a much
higher level than usual. Northern
retailers are' making every effort
to keep their stocks low until taxes
are assessed, though some are at
