TRADE DEPRESSED
BY BAD WEATHER

Bradstreets says There has been q
further slight improvement in crop con-
ditions. due to slightly higher tempera-
lures West and South and a cessation
Of rain in the cotton belt. This has
made for more optimistic feeling as TO
ultimate yields and future trade in the
sections enjoying even a small share Of
seasonabIe weather. but the great ma
jority of cities, and particularly those
in the Eastern half OF the country
complain OF continued slow retail trade
and collections.
These unfavorable conditions are. in
turn. reflected in more general com
plants Of the absence, Of the expected
volume of recorder business from job
bers and manufacturers. who are also
beginning TO re-echo reports of ac-
summer fabrics.
Reduction sales are more in evidence
in retail lines, and the feeling is that
some Of the trade lost in the past two
months will not be regained. on the
other hand. the reports as to fall trade
are quite satisfactory a reflection, pos
sibly. Of the fact that retail stocks Of
heavy goods were well cleaned up last
winter
Dn's Review says: Adverse weather
has made the season another week late,
both as to distribution of spring mer-
chandise and progress Of the crops. Few
merchants anticipate a normal volume
of business in the aggregate, and large
stocks viii be carried over or sacrificed
al bargain sales. On the farms the stu
alton is critical, but a few weeks OF
high temperature will make the outlook
much brighter, except that extensive
replanting adds heavily to the cost of
the crops. Wholesale trade in fall and
winter goods is brisk, large duplicate
purchases because of the cold spring
having depleted stocks in the hands of
retailers. Manufacturing plants operate
at full capacity in most industries. cot
ton mills making remarkably favorable
returns, in view OF the weather and
cost of raw material. Dispatches indi-
cate that the business 81 suation is much
more satisfactory in tn West than in
the East or Snuth.

Expect Handsome Re-
turn on Business
Investment.

The transition period between the old

how more than ever strongly accentu-
tied in the erection of a modern six

that have been developing strongly dur
ing the past year that G street north

the principal commercial street Of the
