Activities For Coming Season—Sum- ma the Country. The year 1913 has been a very satis- | factory one .in the building field, but | confidential reports from representa- tive contractors and builders in every section of the United States and Canada collected by the American Carpenter and Builder (Chicago) in their recent investigation or census of their subscribers. - Great optimism prevails among builders in practically every part of the country. Throughout New York, Pennsylvania, | the upper Mississippi valley and the | Pacific coast states the outlook is es- pecially bright. By groups of states the forecast is as follows: Percentage of Reports from pach state Dre- dloting. How wint 1914 with last year? compare Per Per. Per Per Cent. Ceat.Cent.Cent.

A decrease is expected in Delaware, while in Georgia and South Carolina present prospects do not warrant any prediction as to the future. Repor from the south central states are en- couraging Alabama, Kentuc Louisiana, Mississippi, Tennessee look zains over last year. Arkansas will have normal business. The western states are very opti mistic; all except Washington, New Mexico and Nevada report much bet- ter prospects. The Canadians also are confident of the future, the majority of reports from every province pr dicting an increase in 1914 over last year. It seems entirely reasonable that the local contractor and builder has his work for the coming year pretty well gauged by this time. Thus, after making ali allowances for overconfi- dence and enthusiasm, these reports augur well for a busy building season this year. | BRIEF STATE NEWS Centerbrook.—Platts commenced filling t Brothers have eir large ice house ice.
