DUN'S ON THE
BUSINESS OUTLOOK

Dnn's Review of the 10th inst.
says;
The year now drawing to a close
will be notable for it's harvests, the
money value OF its farm products be-
ing computed ut close to s9.OOO, ,OOO,-
OUO--a record figure. This fact forms
the best possible basis for industrial
advance next year. While for sever
al months the volume of production
aud distribution has been below the
normal, there can be no widespie cad
stagnation while the farms Of the
country continue to yield so bounti-
fully as they have during the past
eleven months. Moreover, the gov
ernment report just issued this week
shows that the winter wheat area sOwn
this fall is the largest on record.
and that weather conditions have I'M
proved since the report was gathered.
There is, however, little change in
financial and business sentiment,
which remains conservative and
cautious. The holiday trade is.
nevertheless, opening up well. and in
certain important centers the jobbing
trade in staple merchandise is re-
ported as improving. The colder
weather has been beneficial to most
merchants and the heavy fall Of snow
is most seasOnable. The cotton GIN
ming shows larger output than had
been expected, and the years crop
will be considerably larger than last
years. Money conditions are more
satisfactory, and the Bank OF Eng
land, following it's reduced discount
rate last week, reports this week one
of the largest percentages of reserve
for this time in years. Railroad
earning during the month Of Novem-
Der increased 2.6 per cent over last
year. Bank clearings, while cOntin-
uing to show, as for some times past,
decreases in New York as compared
with 1900 and 1906, are elsewhere IA
per cent better than in 1900 and 1870
per cent better than in 1905. Ex-
ports from New York in the latest
week aggregated slo,?3+ ,4:5, which is
~ APO, ,267 better than last year. but
81 $780, under the imports, the vol
ume of which was about equal to last
year.
Continued restriction Of output has
not prevented steady accumulation of
pig iron stocks, and the movement to
curtail operations is expected to be
carried still further.
Beers & Haynes general store was
broken into last Friday night. an Ell
trance being effected through the
rear window. Several knives were
taken, and it is thought that the cul-
prits were frightened away before
they finished their work.
The Christmas tree exercises to he
held this evening in the school house
will be given by the Sunday school
classes and the school children of the
city. All the children. both young
and old, in the Judith Gap district
are cordially invited to attend.
