tisers of the country.

FROM THE BIGGEST

SITUATION IN SUPPLIES
Facts in Various Lines of Commodities Which Enter
Into Musical Instrument Manufacture.
An active market in varnishes, stains, shellac, etc.,
is reported this week. According to reports the re-
cent tightening of the primary markets for vegetable
oils has had no immediate effect on this year's prices
over last year's, but the tendency is upward.
The prospects for walnut for 1925 are that all the
mills will operate close to capacity and that the mar-
ket will be rather uniformly good throughout the
year. The visible supply of walnut logs appears to
be as great as ever and there is no question but that
the present production of walnut can be maintained
for many years.
The Federal Trade Commission has permitted the
varnish trade to use the word "shellac" when accom-
panied by the word "compound" in equally conspicu-
ous letters in connection with the marketing of var-
nishes. The decision that such a practice does not
constitute a violation of the law was given in the
commission's hearing of a trial case of a varnish con-
cern of Rochester, N. Y.
One form of the oil used by manufacturers of
paints and varnishes is procured from what is known
as china-wood. According to the report made to the
educational bureau of the National Paint, Oil &
Varnish Manufacturers' Association, the paint and
varnish manufacturers of this country now have mil-
lions of chinawood seedlings planted on a large tract
at Gainesville, Fla., and are satisfied after twelve
years of experimenting that in five years they can
produce a supply there that will meet all demands.
The National Association of Purchasing Agents'
meeting in Washington, D. C., recently endorsed a
scheme to bring about a simplification of invoice,
inquiry and purchase order forms for all lines of
industry.
A patent was recently granted to Rolf Thelan, of
Madison, Wis... for a reversible circulation fan kiln.
Mr. Thelan is head of the Forests Products Labora-
tory and his new patent is one more added to a long
list of valuable devices developed for the government.
There are 64,800 .square miles of forest on the
Philippine Islands. Nearly all belong to the United
States. There is enough of this timber to cover all
Illinois with virgin growth, and then Massachusetts
besides. Of mahogany alone there is something like
one hundred and ninety billion feet.
VENEER MEN'S OUTLOOK.
At tse nineteenth annual meeting of the National
Veneer & Panel Manufacturers' Association, held at
1he Congress Hotel, Chicago, a report read by F. F.
Fish, secretary, outlined the activities of the year
1925. A substantial gain in membership since the
annual meeting of a year ago was reported. In June,
1923, the organization became affiliated with the Na-
tional Hardwood Lumber Association, and since that
time much has been accomplished in the establish-
ment of standard grading and inspection rules for
veneers.
TRADE LIKES CLEO STRINGS.
Cleo wound strings, made by S. Simon, 6163 South
Michigan avenue, Chicago, are eliciting the compli-
ments of the trade, and the Cleo strings occupy a
foremost position in the favor of users and dealers.
The silent salesmen showcase is one of the things
that is making the Cleo strings popular with the
dealers. This is provided by the manufacturers for
the counter of the dealer. It simplifies selling, as the
customer can just point out the string he desires.
There is no delay and no trouble in making the sale.
The quality of the strings soon creates a demand for
them once they have been introduced in a community.
INCREASES WHOLESALE SPACE.
The Silverstone Talking Machine, St. Louis, Mo.,
which recently leased the rive-story and basement
building at 1114 Olive street, will use it for a retail
and wholesale phonograph business. It is the in-
tention of the Silverstone concern to make extensive
alterations to the building, installing a sprinkler sys-
tem and modern equipment.
Lavernt Pelton, the Neenah, Wis., dealer, has
added a line of radio sets.
