SHOWS ACTIVITY.
Gratifying Progress Is shown in In
dustriaI Lines-Reyiew
of Trade.

New York, Sept. 13.-R. G. Dun &;
Co.'s Weekly Review of Trade says:
Industrial activity is greater than at
any recent date. Many new factories
and mills have been added to the pro-
ductive capacity, facilities are being
increased at old plants, and idle shops
resumed through the settlement of
labor controversies. Despite the rapid
development of transportation facili-
ties the nations needs have grown still
faster, and the situation is distressing
for shippers and consumers. Large
crops are being harvested and the
greater abundance in food-stuffs
caused a decline in prices of commodi-
ties during August of 3.5 per cent,
as measured by Dun's index number.
Retail trade is large with a bright
outlook for the future in jobbing and
wholesale business. There are few
of the cancellations so numerous at this
time last year, while collections are
improving. Low stocks of wheat and
poor grading of receipts, together
with fears of frost in corn sections,
sustained quotations when decline
would have been imminent if full con-
fdence were placed in official returns
of condition. Failures for the week
numbered 205 in the United States,
against 1913 last year. and % in Canada,
against 10 year ago."

! CROP CONDITIONS.
Secretary Wilson Tells of His Obser-

Western States.


Washington, Sept. IS. = Secretary
Wilson, who returned Thursday from
trip through the west, has sum-
married. the agricultural conditions in
the states he visited. These states in
Guided Nebraska, Kansas, Iowa, Hill
nois, Indiana and Ohio. He said there
was a great abundance of crops gem
orally in that region. "There will be
a good corn CROP he said. Corn now
is substantially out of the way of the
frost. The corn crop in parts of Kan
sas, Nebraska and Indiana are prob
ably the finest on record. There has
been more hundreds of millions of dol
lars depending on the ripening of this
crop this year than the ordinary per-
of the west this year is also very fine,
and what may be considered as really
the most important crop of all-the
grass crop-is exceedingly good The
census tells us there has been a great
increase during the past ten years in
the number of cattle in the United
States. This information, taken to-
gether with the fine crop of grass, in
sures lower prices of meat. l don't be-
lieve the price of meat, however, will
ever be as low as it has been in the
past, for the simple reason that the
American people are more prosperous
than ever before and are eating more
meat than ever before. However, the
exceedingly high prices of meat will
be thing of the past as soon as the
present feeders get fattened up to a
beef condition"
