THE STATISTICS TOR FEBRUARY H a r d w a r e gPrlcet* C o n t i n u e F i r m - T J i r a n s k o n t t h e L i n t P a i n t S i t u u t i u n . Local white pine manufacturers anticipate a shortage of 20 per ceut in the production of logs it" the present mild weather continues. At t h e best there will be a consideiable shortage under the estimates made a month ago and this i s giving the white -pine lum ber market a stronger tone if possible, thau last week. The continued mild weather has ruined the logging roads and operations at the head waters of the Mississippi and its tnbutaries are at a standstill. Sufficient logs have been skidded to meet all the requirements of manu facturers, but the problem Is to get them hauled to the rivers and creeks for t h e drives. Many of the logging crews have become dis couraged and have deserted with the result that contractors are shorthanded and cannot begin to handle the volume of logs they co.uld a -week ago, even if the conditions later become favorable for this work. In most quarters it is anticipated that unless there is colder weather by the latter part of the week opeiations i n t h e woods will be practically ended an d n o serious effoit wil be made to haul logs later in the season. Statistically white pino continues to hold a phenomenal position I n spite of the high prices pievailing and the difficulty e x p e u - enced in gettii g certain specifications of lum ber, shipments from Minneapolis Febiuarj were In excess of the bame month a year ago b 4 per cent an d receipts anded w e ie n,605,000 feet, against 30,240,000 for the corresponding month in 1901 Re - ceipts w e ie jl,790,000 feet compaied with 11,- 175,000 feet. The price situation is on a firm basis a t the advance noted a week ago in T h e - l o u r n al. Further advances, however, must follow if the conditions pertaining to logging are as bed as they appear to be at present. H a r d w a r e P r i c e s A r e F i r m . H a i d w a r e prices continue to gain in firm ness In nails and wire there has been no important price change, but the shortage is now ou and difficulty is evperienced by job bers iu getting supplies short of three weeks after orders are placed. In nails the s h o u - ' ag e applies to is, 6s and 2'^s and assortments are badly Droken. Mills ai e receiving moie orders than they can handle. Coulage i s higher for both sisal and manila and is on a flim basis a t an advance of ^ l cent p^r pound for standaid sizes of rope Carriage bolts are in short supply and orders art taken subject to delajs in filling, these de lays extending from sixty to ninety days ac cording- to the conditions at the various niilU. Axes are now o n a regular basis owing to the consolidation and some lines have been advanced 50@75 cents a dozen Steei goods are In short supply o n many lines, especially forks, and factories are refusing oideis. Othei lines are strong. Seasonable goods ar e moving freely with tu - ture orders of substantial propor tions. Volume of business the past week hag been unusually laige. G I U S N M a y A d v a n c e . Prospects seem to favor higher prices for window glaas. Foreign factories are l e - ported as likely to be closed by a prolonged strike which would cause the withdrawal of' foreign glass from the United States and would leave the situation in domestic hands. As domestic makers have been selling at a narrow margin of profit an advance is al most sure to follow a foreign strike. ley, doz, 40@83c: salsify (oyster plant), per doz, 50c watercress, per doz, 30c. 3 f e w Y o r k P r o d u e . / -c New York.

The lack of demand is due to the fact that the large manufactuiers, as a iule, have enough wool on hand to meet present needs and h a \ e shown little disposition to buy, and the smaller manufacturers are buying sufficient to fill present orders. ( Advices leeelved here from the early Ari zona clip show strong prices paid there, i n fact, about 4c to 5c per scoured pound m o i e than the samp class ot wool would sell for 111 this market at the present time.
