LOIItKK 1OSITION STHOXt; The Inrg'T softwood mills arc ending up the year In very strong position, having shipp"d ninety eight per cent of their production so far. In recent weeks buyers have been holding back, to avoid swelling their "inventories by the receipt of new shipment.1). As or ders placed now for so-called Im mediate shipment would hardly ar rive until the beginning of the new year, many of these buyers are now getting to cover, says the Ameri can " Lumberman, Chicago, . for hook In gn during the week ended lt-e. 1 2 exceeded current output by eight per cent, though total production is about average. In creased output, in the mountain pine sections of the west is for the time beiifg offset by increased cutting in others. The general ex pectation is that the low stocks tn buyers hamla will lead them to en ter the. market for their spring re MUllemetilK, and the depleted ' con dition of mill stocks in most soft wood producing regions, may give iioni'! buoyancy to quotations.
