SALESMANSHIP CLASS FULL:
ANOTHER CLASS DEMANDED

At the last meeting of the salesman
ship class of the Y NJ. @. A. it was an
nounced that thirty men would be the
limit of the class, and within three
days the limit was reached and a large
list of inquiries and prospective stu
dents are compelled TO 90 unsatisfied.
The genuine interest manifested by the
business community in this novel class,
because of its practical value, has more
than equaled the expectations Of the
7. NJ. G. A. officers.
a movement is now on foot to start
another section of the salesmanship
class to meet at another time with the
same instructor, Mr.. John D. Spencer.
However, as Mr.. Spencer has been out
Of the city for the last few days IL is
not fully decided whether this demand
can be met. If this plan goes into ef.
feet, it is proposed to have the two
sections of the class listen to the same
lectures at the same time but to meet
separately for recitation, discussion and
practice selling. Only an occasional
exhibition sale by some expert salesman
will be given before the combined sec
tions, Tho close personal contact of
student and instructor in a small class
has been one Of the greatest factors in
the success of most of the educational
work given in the Y. NJ. c. A. The in
terchange of ideas by the statesmen who
make up this course is considered so
essential TINT a limit was set to the
class, in spite Of the association g de-
sire TO be of service TO all who apply.

The stork was busy again in Salt
Lake City last week. according to the
weekly report of the city board of

were males and twenty females This
is twenty-five short of the record for

S0RENSON IS PROUD
OF FRUIT DISPLAY
Horticultural Inspector Refers
to Prizes in His Monthly
Report.

John P. Sorensen, horticultural in"
spector, in his report for October, sub
mitted to the county commissioners, re-
fers to the display of fruit at the state
fair, which secured first prize and a
gold medal for quality, quantity and
taste. Considering that the judges were
from outside the state, and thus free
from prejudice or bias in favor of Salt
Lake county, the award is something
that fruit-raisers of the county should
be proud Of. The report follows:
In the first part of October the dep
uty inspectors and the inspector and
some members and Officers of the
County Horticultural society, by the
liberal assistance Of the county COM
missioners, made display of fruit at
the state fair, showing what can be
raised in Salt Lake county, and we were
awarded the first prize and a gold
medal for quality, quantity and good
display.
When we consider that the Judge was
especially selected as one Of the most
capable men from outside the state,
SO as 10 be free from local leanings,
favoritism or prejudice, such a prize
and award should be something for
fruit.raisers OF the county to be proud
of.
After the fair one deputy was laid
off and one was taken down sick, and
two of them found more profitable en-
ployment at other work, so the sta
tistical returns that should have been
collected are not complete, as no re-
turns have been made from two dis.
tricts.
The fall digging of trees has now
commenced, and 1t will require one
deputy TO work south Of Murray, one

the trees, for root diseases, as they are
dug up. l will have all | can attend

WILL HAVE TO ADD
TO THEIR EQUIPMENT
Increased Business Will Force
Railroads to Purchase More
Rolling Stock.

| The continued decrease in the number
OF the country's idle cars, which now
aggregate close to l0l 900 net, is re-
garded by the manufacturers as con-
vlncing proof that the railroads will be
forced TO add to their equipment in the
| event OF a continued Improvement in
general business.
1t is remarkable that the number of
idle cars decreased from 1888 on April
30 last to 10l 900 on October IA, in the
face of an increase Of not much more
than 20 per. cent in manufactured
surplus cars is due largely TO the heavy
grain movement, but at the same time
il is plain that had general business
shown an improvement in excess of
20 per cent there would not have been
enough cars TO supply the demands for
shippers. One manufacturer stated that
if business conditions were normal at
the present time, this, together with
the heavy grain movement, would re-
suit in a car famine of unusual pro-
portions
''The industries Of the country. -
said the manufacturer, "are operating
about 60 per cent of their capacity, and
still the number of surplus cars is not
much more than 100000, or less than
per cent of the total number of cars
in use in the United States today. With
the industries running upon 60 per
cent basis and only per cent of the
country's cars idle, it stands to reason
that had normal conditions existed over
the last few weeks the freight con-
signed 10 the railroads could not have
been properly handled. If business con-
ditions do assume normal PROPORTIONS
next year, the railroads will have TO
enter the market as large buyers OF
equipment.
While there has been quite an i'm
provement in the demand for equip"
ment on the part of the railroad com
panies, restoration 10 normal condi-
tions is not anticipated until well into
next year. At this time year ago the
steel and equipment companies had
more business on their books than they
could conveniently handle. About a
year ago An authority estimated the
value of untitled orders on the books
of the steel. locomotive, car and iron
companies as follows:

Bank Clearings Hold UP.

The most noticeable feature Of the
financial world has been the excellent
showing made in the bank clearings
this week, The totals for the week
have been nearer those of a year ago
than at almost any time this year This
will continue to hold, as the period of
last years. financial depression is
passed. The demand for money con-
tinues strong. and there is said to be
hardly enough available cash on hand
by the banks and brokers to pro,
vide for all the demand. AS result,
the interest rates hold up well and 6
and Z per cent are demanded for loans
on good security. The bank reserves,
although they are not especially large,
are such that they indicate an excel.
lent condition of all the financial in
stitutions, The report of the secretary
of state for the state banks. issued last
week, showed that there had been a
noticeable increase in deposits since the
last report was called for. and this is
regarded as showing that business con.
fidence is thoroughly restored. The pay
ment of large sums of money for the
crops of the state, especially the har
vesting of the beets, has provided manv
people with ample Supplies Of cash, and
it is felt that the coming winter should
be an unusually prosperous one.
Election excitement is assigned as
the reason for the light trading in To-
cal stocks, Most of the transactions
have been in the sugar stocks Follow
ing are the latest quotations:

Preparing for Winter

The feature of the hardware trade,
however, has been those goods which
indicate that cold weather is coming
and that people are preparing for WIN
ter. Heaters of all kinds, including
gas logs and small stoves, form no small
part of the weeks business. and the
call for furnaces and ranges has been
unusually large.
The demand for harness and saddlery
has been strong, with the call for car
Tiage robes A close second. AS might
be expected, builders hardware has
been called for in constant quantities.
This line of goods depends considerab bly,
on the amount of building being done
in the community and varies with the
erection Of new structures. y curious
indication of the season is the great
call for glass. showing that house own
ers are making necessary repairs to
their buildings and arranging every
thing snug against the coming of ''Jack
Frest.'
The increase in the call for machin.
cry of all kinds is regarded as an ex'
in the mining and smelling industries.
For some time the trade in this line
has been confined to che sale of pros
pectors' supplies and the like. 1t is
expected that there will continue to
be an excellent demand for machinery
from this time and a possible increase,
if anything. The call for sporting
goods, including guns and loaded shells,
has been good all the week. showing
that the merry duck hunter is still
abroad.
The lumber trade has shown slight
tendency TO slacken as the season ad.
vances, although as long as the build
ing operations continue. no fears are
felt for this line of business. Most
of the dealers report that they are
purchasing more stock than they were
at this time last year. and the larger
concerns, especially the mining com
panies, are purchasing in large guam
titles
