One large manufacturer of jack pine in the north reports that lumber is starting to move fairly well from his yard but there is at present no evidence of an improvement in price levels. It seems to be the general opinion that lumber on pile in Northâ€" ern Ontario will be down about 50 p.c. over a year ago. This, coupled with a fair improvement in the demand for "Briefly summarizing the experience of the past year, 86 p.c. of the firms reporting said that their volume was less than in 1929. In the matter of prices 79 p.c. of the replies declared values were less. The report of stocks on hand at the present time were somewhat conflicting between the varâ€" ious producing sections of the Dominâ€" ion. In the East, taking it as a whole, stocks were from 10 to 15 p.c. greater than a year ago. Seventy per cent of the firms stated that their stocks were larger than last year In the West, where logging has beem greatly curtailâ€" ed over two seasons, there has been a drastic liquidation of stock and most of the larger firns report that their holdings are now well in hand and on an average, about the same or a little less than a year ago. "The log rarvest during the past season, of course, has been greatly curâ€" tailed. This is graphically illustrated in replies received with ninety per cent of the firms reporting that their log output will be less than a year ago. "While many of the replies distinctâ€" ly skate around the question of the outlook for the present year it is notâ€" iceable that there seems to be a greatâ€" er feeling of confidence, although of a cautious nature. It is noticeable also that no one expects a rapid upward trend in business. Some of the best informed firms say that 1931 will likeâ€" ly be a fair year with the latter part showing a gradual improvement, both in volume and price, "Canada Lumberman" has received over 200 replies to a questionnaire sent out asking for figures on last year‘s production, comparison of prices for 1929 and 1930, the. amount of stock on hand as against a year ago and figâ€" ures on the log harvest during the past winter. "The year 1930 in the lumber busiâ€" ness in Canada wW.Il go down as one of the unsatisfactory periods in its hisâ€" tory. The demand was spotty and, during the last half of the year, when it was expected that the trade would be‘ shipping a greater quantity of material, the call for lumber was disâ€" appointing. It is now entering the second year since the slackening of demand first manifested itself. _ It would be injudicious, at this time, to prophesy when a return of normal conditions will become noticeable and one man‘s conjecture is as good as that of his neighbour or competitor. "At the present time it is hardly judicious to make any prophecy, even in the face of some encouragement during the past few weeks. This can be said, however, that if the construcâ€" tion of small homes and other buildâ€" ngs calling for mill construction makes even fair comeback during the remainder of this year, it would seem likely that values of Easterm Canadian lumber will stiffen. Stocks are low in the retail yards and there is no large liquidation of stocks to be carried out when the demand begins. "The past winter was a particulurly? favourable one from the standpoint of | getting logs ready to bring to the mill.| Speaking generally it would seem that! costs of logging this year will average about 10 p.c. to 15 p.c. lower than a? year ago. However, this does not comâ€" . pensate operators for the extremely low prices and curtailed demand for| their product. After taking all factors into consideration, it does not seem likely that there will be more than 50‘ p.c. of the lumber in pile in Northern Ontario compared with last season.! Logging was, of course, sharply curâ€"| tailed in the bush, only some of the| larger companies going into the wocdsf in a really big way. : nual summary of the conditions of the trade in Northern Ontario. The reâ€" pors is based on information received | from operators in the chief producing areas. As the facts and figures are carefully prepared by men in a posiâ€" tion to know the data thus supplied is of special interest and value. In the report for the past season it will be ’noted that there has been very considâ€" _erable curtailment in production. The production for 1929 was 628,000,000 feet of lumber while in 1930 it was®only 511,800,000 feet, a decrease of 116,200,â€" 000 feet, or a decrease of over 18 per cent., or more than a sixth. The deâ€" crease from the Timmins area is still more marked the production in 1929 being 10,00,000 feet, and only 6,200,000 feet in 1930, a decrease of 3,800,000 feet, or over 61 per cent decrease. Only a few areas have maintained production, and still fewer have inâ€" creased it. Among the latter will be noted Field (where Chas. Pierce has: lumber interests), Goward, Latchtmd New Liskeard and Powassan.

People who can afford to buy liquors can afford the additional prices imposed, running from ten to fifty cents a bottle, for such a luxury. It is possible that the higher cost may have a deterrent effect on those whose finâ€" ances are not in a condition to warâ€" rant such purchases. Higher prices may have a tendency to increase bootâ€" legging but the loss in this respect will be more than offset by the higher scheâ€" l dule of prices. ] Of course if that had been going on we would be living in a climate Elysium by now, and next winter may very probably convince the most skepâ€" tical that we are not. Yet the illusion always has existed. Jefferson notes in his diary somewhere twoâ€"thirds along in the eighteenth cenâ€" tury that the oldâ€"timers there assured him that the climate had changed and that the winters were not so severe as they were when they were young. Third, the weather records show that it isn‘t so. Ssecond, that ‘the illusion happenis because the oldâ€"timers, bless their hearts, in looking back over the years see only the extremes and forzet the normal, and so the extremes look to them like the average. First, that it is largely due to the fact that we now have better housing and heating, so that we feel the stress of winter less. (Duluth Herald.) This phenomenal winter has given new popularity to the everâ€"recurring illusion that the winters are milder than they used to be, as many oldâ€" timers will solemnly assure you they are.
