DEVELOPMENT OF

Thought Uneconomical.

Recent developments in the German
coal industry indicate that more and
more the tendency will be 70 utiliz.
by-products. Unless all signs fail, IL
the near future the direct burning o.
coal will be looked upon as wholly m.
economical. This will mean increasing
many times the production Of an.
monia from coal Assuming that The
by-products were saved from double
the amount Of coal now so utilized,
there would be a further gain Of around
100000 tons Of ammonia, and German
agriculture, without any imports @!

disposal more nitrogen fertilizers than
before the war. Taking together the
three native sources OF nitrogen
namely, ammonia from coke. ammonis
from the Haber process. and nitrates
of lime, the total output of which is
not definitely known at present-ast
comparing them with the like produces
available in 1913, the results are sp-

What 1t Means 10 a
City To Be in Love
t With Itself.
How Kansas City Got a
Federal Reserve Bank
of Its Own.


When you go into town that
likes itself you cannot help feeling
it, almost as tactile sensation. That
is what you feel first in Kansas
City. 1t likes itself, naively and
enormously, in the wonderful self
seeing manner of youth. 1t is but
fifty years old, dating from the ar
rival of the first railroad train. 1t
has had its name only since 1889.
Before that it was "City Of Kan
sas," and before that it had been
called Town of Kansas" Now 1t
has a S50,000,000 railroad terminal
system and a passenger station that
alone cost six millions and is ex-
ceeded in size and grandeur by only
two in this country, namely the
Pennsylvania and the New York
Central stations in New York City.
Every porter in Kansas City knows
how to tell you an incredible fact
in a phrase which, though literally
misleading, is technically exact
kansas City seems to be quite a
place." you say to your porter, pass
ing through the new station.
do you think 500" he answers,
ironically. "Well, you are correct:
It is. The Pullman Company sells
more tickets right here than at any
other Office it has in this country
That is true because all the Pull
man tickets sold in Kansas City are
sold in the office of one station.
Or you say to the taxicab driver:
II should think in a town like Kan
sas City the pavement Of the main
street from the station to the hotels
would be kept in better condition"
He slows down to tell you about
il. This is not the main thorough
fare. That is a block to the right.
They are making it over and when
they are through it will be the fin
est reception street in the world.
When you come again you will think
you are riding on velvet. In the
meantime, traffic has been diverted
into this street you complain of.
When the other is finished, this one
will be made to match, and then traf-
fic will move to in one and fro in
the other, and there won't be any
thing like it on earth.

railroad mileage in the year ended

The above rates express the cost of
foreign money in terms of the Amer
lean dollar. You buy an English pound
sterling for s4.75 Ills; the intrinsic
parity is S4s6% perpound. Thus, you
say either that pounds are at dis
count or that dollars are at premium,
which is owing to the fact that in Eng
land the demand for dollars with which
70 settle accounts in this country is
greater than the demand in this coun-
try for pounds with which 20 settle
accounts in England.

The First Advance.

Without the cooperation OF the Ca
madam Department of Finance and the
chartered banks the Dominion's indus
trial achievement in the present war
and splendid showing in the production

sible. For many months, indeed, Can
ada's industrial organization for war
work was limited only by ability to
finance munition orders placed here.
The exchange situation presented a
formidable difficulty, and for a time
the Right Hon. David Lloyd George
would not approve the placing Of
orders in Canada. But this was only a
temporary condition, and it was over
come by arranging credits here.

vember, 1915, asked for subscription to
the first domestic war loan of S50,000,-

That is the spirit of Kansas City.
You touch it everywhere. There are
four hundred thousand people who
would rather live in Kansas City

Federal Reserve Banks.

Washington, Aug. 5.-A slight gain
in aggregate gold reserve. and de-
crease of S4,5OO,0OO in the combined
total reserves of the banks is indicated
by the weekly bank statement Of the
Federal Reserve Board, made public
to-day. Total earnings assets Of the
system are about Sl,5OO,OOO less than
the week before, largely the result Of
decreased amounts of acceptances on
hand.
Chicago reports the largest gain in
total reserves, mainly through the col
lection Of outstanding balances due
from other Federal Reserve banks, also
through the increase in government de-
posits and the liquidation of invest
ments. New York and Boston show
considerable decreases in their cash re
serves. having turned balances due TO
other Federal Reserve banks into ia
vorable balances during the report
week.
Acceptances on hand show a decrease
of about 100000, all the banks, ex-
cept New York and Atlanta, reporting
smaller holdings than at the end of the
preceding week. OF the total bills, in
GLIDING acceptauces on hand, about SO
per cent mature within thirty days and
about 80 per cent after thirty and with
in sixty days.
There have been no material changes
in the holdings Of government securi-
ties or municipal warrants. Earning
assets aggregate at present Sl93,27l'-
600, constituting more than $50 per
cent of the banks paidin capital, as
against 353 per cent shown the week
before and 294 per cent about three
months previous. OF the total earning
assets, acceptances form All per cent;
United States bonds, 249 per cent; dis
counts, 1877 per cent; warrants, 14.2
per cent. and treasury notes. Al per
cent. Government and net member
bank deposits show but slight changes
in the aggregate, though Chicago and
New York report substantial increases
in the amounts of government funds
held.
There has been no change for the
week in the amount of Federal Reserve
bank notes in circulation. Federal
Reserve agents report total of sl75;-
551 900 of reserve notes outstanding,
against which they hold Sl62,1S4,O
Of gold and s15.993 600 Of paper. The
banks show a total circulation of Fed
