those which have been recently
built elsewhere in the County. He
spoke of his own experience when
as a Young teacher he taught for
Sis month and paid $40 a month
for board. With no uncertain
sound he scored the man who is
un willing to Lelp bear the burden
of the education of the community
in whice he lives merely because
he has no children of his own to
educate. and the parent who val
ues money more than the culture
of the head and heart of his child

day defeated by a vote of IA to 80 the
Cummins amendment to the Canadian
reciprocity bill to add meats to the
free list.
After some difficulty In securing a
quorum the Senate resumed considera-
ton of the Canadian reciprocity bill to-
day, and over the protest of Senator
Cummins began voting on his proposed
amendments. The amendment putting
meats on the free list was defeated, IA
to 80. Senator Bailey immediately
moved an adjournment.
1T is apparent that we are doing
business here with a bare quorum" he
said. and I think we ought to let
these votes go over"

adjourn, 10 to %.

Senator Cummins again referred to
what he considered the un~fairness OF
forcing a vote on mis- amendments De-
fore other senators had a chance to
speak on them. He declared that leay.

benefit only the big packers OF ths
United States.
Senator Burton, Of Ohio, in voting
against Senator Cummins' amendment,
said he did so because he thought II
would upset the Canadian agreement
He said he favored free ment, but not
as an item on the reciprocity bill.
The vote by which the Cumlnins free
meat amendment was defeated
showed Senators Bailey, simmons and
Thornton, democrats, voting with the
following republicans in favor of the
amendment: Borah, Bourne, Bristow,
Clapp, Clark of Wyoming, Cummins,

Senator Bailey urged the adoption OF
the amendment. Senator Dixon in

'8RADSTREET and DUN
REPORT ON BUSINESS
Many Causes Combine to Make
the Week a Quiet One
in Trade.

New York. July 10.--Bradstreet's
Saturday said:
Excessively hot weather, half year
iy ~shutdnwns for repairs and inven-s
tories, vacations and holidays, have
combined to make last week a quiet
period in trade ana industry. While
the hot spell, now apparently modera-
ting. has pee helpful to trade in light
summer fabrics and wearing apparel
at retail, hat branch OF demand mas
hardly equaled expectations, while un-
certainties as to crops nave tended to
restrict or depress operation for h
future. In the southwest some cancel
lations of orders are reported as a re-
suit of the CROP uncertainty. but d
vices as to the severity of this move
ment differ at different markets.
Industry, generally, is quite oyer the
turn of the year period. Caution and
conservatism, with a fair degree OF
optimism in the face of depressing
weather conditions, are In evidence in
leading lines.
Business failures in the United
atates for the week ending July 6
were 1870. against 227 last week, 1872 in
h like week of 1910, 1872 in 1909, 246
in 1908 and 1S5 in 1907.
Business failures in Canada for the
week number IS. which compares With
81 1851 WIEN IN AlO III lit C0IlSSROIld-
ing week OF 1910.
Wneat, including riour, exports from
h United States and Canada for the
week ending July 6 aggregate 1,347,-
27h bushels. against 2 a7s 4a5- bushels
last week and 1.563,7T5 this week last
year.
Corn exports for the week are s76,-
OF bushels, against 713,S4S bushels
last week and 190,077 last year.
Dun's Weekly Review Of Trade to.
day says:
Actual business is reduced by the
extreme heat extending over a wide
section of h country. Otherwise de-
velopments are favorable. Inquiries
for pig iron continue in excess of act
ual trading, but there is buying in all
sections. The Improvement in the
steel trade in une is indicated by the
monthly statement of the Iron Age
which shows a daily output of the
steel plants in June of 1921 tons
against 1920 tons in May. There was
some decline, however, in the output
of merchant furnaces. There is more
animation in footwear, due to the ar
rival of many buyers in the New Eng
land market, but purchases are con.
Ined to current requirements. Thu
leather market holds firm. but thu
recent holiday served to check demand
and shoe manufacturers are now en-.
gagged in inventory taking. Supple!
of sole leather are limited.
The hide market continues wei
maintained, with a further advance o
hc for packer native steers. Buying
however, has been on a more consers
vative basis. Native COWS continu,
scarce and branded varieties are firm
in price, The foreign markets are ais,

tons advances We're secured for al
varieties.
