COSTLY
SWEET PEAS ON THE MARKET
$1.40 Each Two Years Ago,
tho 'Cherub.' n feather-edge, white nnd
bright rose colored.
"These mny be nt tho fourth National
Flower Show, which Is to bo held In this
city from March :5 to April 2."
C. A. Addison, of the McFniiand Lum
ber Company, Wldener llulldlng, says that
lumber Is from $.1 to $4 a thousand feet
higher than It was n year ago. This, ho
snys, is due to a large extent to the Kuro
penn war.
"There Is a wcll-dcllned rumor," ho said,
"that quite recently the Italian (Sovcni
ment bought 47.001,000 feet of lumber In
tlie Southern markets, but whether It is
all for Italy or In part for some of the
Allies I could not say. A purchase like
that would, of course, have an effect on
tho general market.
"Tho greater pnrt of tho lumber which
conios to Philadelphia Is from Southern
Stntcs, Georgia, North and Mouth Caro
lina, Virginia, Florida, and Alabama con
tributing tho greater part. Tho lumber
from these Mtntcs Is nil yellow plno and
Is known to tho trade an 'long lonf and
'short leaf.' It would require a-long tech
nical description to dellno tho' difference
between Ions nnd short leaf, but, briefly,
the "short leaf Is tho second growth.
"Hulldcrs and boxmakers use the bulk
of the lumber brought to this city, the
three great consumers of lumber being
the rnllruads, builders and boxmakers,
"Twenty years ngo lumber could be
bought nt about 20 cents u thousand feet.
Farmers then sold their timber by tho
acre. They usually got around (I an
acre. Today they nro wiser and are sell
fng'lt from (3 to (3 a thousand feet. As
a rulo nil aero yields from 0000 to C000
feet, nnd tho price varies according to
the distance from the railroad. Some
times only tho timber on tho tract Is sold
with a 20-year right for cutting, but
moro frequently tho land la Included hi
tho sale.
"As far ns I can see, lumber will In
crcaso In price during tho the next 20
years In the same proportion ns It has
In the last 20 years. Tho reforestation Is
not keeping pneo with tho cutting nnd
timber Is a slow growth. In tho mean
tlmo our population, and therefore tho
demand, Is constantly Increasing.
"Tho quantity of lumber used by tho
munition plnnts recently Is enormous.
They have built cities of It. they need It
for boxing nnd ensing, nnd, in my opinion,
when tho war Is over wo will bo called
on to supply a big demand in ICuropo to
rebuild what lias been destroyed.
"I bcllevo tho boom In lumber created
by tho war la going to continue."

FEDERAL RESERVE'S
ANNUAL REPORT
Normal "Volume of Business Is
Now Being Trans
acted Xho nimunl report of the Federal He
servo Hoard for tho Philadelphia district,
No. 3, was made public today by the
chnlrman, It, I,. Austin. During the year
three, new banks have been organltcd In
the district.
"During the last year our member banks
have been subject to the same discourag
ing Influences that affected banking In
tel ests In nil other parts of the country,"
snys tho report. or some tlmo beforo
the breaking out of the European war
huslness In this district lias been declin
ing, nnd tho effect of tho war was to nc
. colcrato this movement, so that tho bank
commenced business at a time when tho
. volume of business In the. district was
fhrTielow normal.
"Industrial plants were being operated
at less than K per cent, of their cnpaclty,
tho movement of freight by the railroads
; was smaller than It had been for years
, and tho number of tho unemployed Was
almost unprecedented. Conlldenca In tho
' future on the part of business men was
larking. This general and widespread
contraction In business rnitsed n llqi'lda-
i t.on of loans, which, together with tho
funds released by the reduction In bank
reserves, effected by the Federal reserve
act, resulted in tho greatest accumulation
of Idle money over known In tho banks
of this district, so that on October I, 1015,
l the member banks' of the Philadelphia
' Clearing Itouso Association ntono had
, $o.1,10l,0)0 of excess reserves.
"At this time, however, almost n nor
1 innl volume of business Is being trans
acted, the traffic of tho railroads la above
normal, Industrial plnnts nro being oper
ated nt nearly full capacity nnd there Is
employment for all kinds of labor.
"During tho pciioit in which this bank
has been In operation the average bor
rowing of national banks, through re
discounting or by direct loans from other
bnnks, has been as follows:

us of November 10, 1D15, the average rate
of Interest rhaiKed borrowing bniikH was
approxltnntel.v 3.H3 per cent.
"At no time duiliiK' the year has there
been a neccKslty, so far us tho needs of
the business community were concerned,
for this bank to make any loans. The
small borrowings of tho member bnnks
could easily havo been effected with
their correspondents In tho reserve cities.
Thla condition, however. Is only tem
porary and duo to extraordinary busl

mal conditions this bank will surely find
Its expected sphere of usefulness."
