' ' rltory and, as a consequence, eastern buyers are turning to the purchase of Douglas fir' In spite of the very high freights which must be paid to got it Into central western markets. "In the matter of prices there has been some tendency to firm up those for the lower grades, particularly In southern pine. Here and (hire may be noted a trend to reduce the prices of the better grades and this Is due not so much to lack of demand as to a readjustment of the spread in val ues between the different grades. In normal times a wool suit is worth so much more than a cotton suit, and thus the best grnde of lumber Is worth so much more than a lower Knulo when conditions are normal. When (ho heavy demand for lumber arrived, however, the natural spread In price between grades was dis rupted by tho fact that certnlu griles wire In much greater demnnj Ih.in others and as a consequence pvices for the grades In most de.nand mounted much faster than thone f jr tho other grades. The natural spread In prices Is now In process of adjustment, a fact which must be taken Into consideration In any study of presont market conditions." since it was one day old.
