in stock taking and in preparations

A conspicuous exception to the rsn,

however, the car shortage question
cuts disturbing figure, and one
which, in view Of the advanced stage
OF the season, bids fair to continue
to unsettle both production and con.
sumption considerably. The only ap-
pearance of weakness in finished
products is in wire and nails, which
are 50 per ton lower, owing to In
creased competition of outside
makers.
The cereals are on the whole hirh-

wheat, which still supports the
