"Few signs of optimism ap pear," according to Random Lengths, Eugene market report, which said the week was mark ed with "sluggish demand and continued low prices." Crow's Lumber Market news service, Portland, reported the drop in prices which has con tinued for many months was slowed because .of recent cold weather which slowed produc tion. Bad Weather But bad weather in consum ing areas, particularly Californ ia, also kept overall demand slow, it stated. There was fair demand for some items. Ponderosa pine com mons picked upstrength, the two reports stated, but this was off set by weakness in other grades and associated species. Random Lengths said that some mills are withholding a large portion of their production hoping for price improvement, but that even so, inventories are accumulating. It said that mills catering to mixed car shipments of green and dried lumber re port a steady but low volume of retail yard buying, mostly to fill gaps in inventories result ing in highly specialized orders.
