And man was killing man.

Kaiser has jumped on the conclusion.

The issue of new railroad securities has
undoubtedly been restrained by the buy
ing back among investors of large
amount of securities returned from
abroad on account of the British war
finance. Rumors of further foreign
loansin this market continue, but have
not yet materialized. Negotiations for
a $4,000, 900 French loan are reported,
also considerable applications from Rus
sia and China. Nothing further has been
heard of new British financing here.
Should these loans appear, they will, Of
course, have an important bearing on
the investment situation. Speculation
has been more active during the past
two weeks and prices showed rising
tendency. Prospects for more conf
dent market, unless unfavorable devel-
opments start fresh liquidation. Peace
prospects, of course, will affect muni-
tions shares unfavorably, and gradual
return to peace basis may be reason
ably anticipated sooner or later.

MEAT PRODUCTION AND THE DEMAND

Washington, July i5.-That meat
production has not kept pace with the
increase in population and that its fail
ure to do so. combined with increased
cost of production and diminished pur'
chasing power Of the money unit, has
contributed 10 higher prices not only in
the United States hut all over the world
il stated in Part 1. of the exhaustive
report ON the meat situation in the
preparation OF which specialists Of the
u. $. Department Of Agriculture have
been engaged for some time.
This country. il is said, is participat-
ing in q worldwide movement and 1t
is not expected that the situation will
undergo any radical change in the inn
mediate future. On the other hand, it
is believed that there will be q gradual
growth and expansion in the worlds
production of beef, mutton, and pork
which may or may not equal the rate Of
increase of the meat.eating population.
In America this gradual expansion
appears to have begun already. Be-
tween 1907 and 1913 there was mark
cd decline in the number of cattle in
the country but in the last two years
this has not only stopped but has given
way to pereeptible increase. The
estimated number GU farms and ranges
on January /, 1915, 6l,44l 900, is, now
ever, still much below the corresponding
figure for 1907, 72,534,000.
With the exception Of temporary
checks due to losses from hog cholera,
there has been in recent years persis-
tent increase in the production of swine.
On January l, 1916, the number in the
country was estimated at 6S,000,00O as
compared with 5s, 100000 In April,
1910. On the other hand, the number
of sheep declined during theis period
from 52,500,000 in 1910 to 49,2D0O00
in 1916. As the decrease. however, is
not sufficient to offset the increase IN
cattle and swine,it may be said that the
total production OF meat in the United
States is increasing but that this in
crease is not yet proportionate to the
growth in population.
The available supply Of meat would
be much greater ii It were not for the
enormous losses caused by disease aud
exposure. Since 1900 it is estimated
that from 10000 TO l,475,0oo cattle
have died each year from disease and
from 600 900 TO 100000 from expos
urc. With sheep, the losses from dis.
ease have been about the same, but from
exposure much larger.
With swine the relative prevalence
OF hog cholera Is perhaps the determln.
ing factor in the annual loss. In 1924
this was az low as 100000 but in 1914
it amounted to 100000. Ii these u
000 tlOO hoos had been saved In is said,

THE PORTLAND CEMENT
INDUSTRY.

The first half of 1916 has been busy
period for the Portland Cement indust-
ry in most parts of the United States.
Labor troubles have caused the tempo
rary shutting down of few plants in
Illinois. and the business ordinarily
taken care of by these plants has gone
to others in the central states, but none
have been reported as having voluntar-
lily closed in 1916.
The opening of a new cement plant
nowadays, when the country Is so well
dotted with plants, is an advent of i'm
portance, and the fact that two new
ones have begun operations is of con
siderable interest Both of them are in
the middle west. one at its extreme
north, at New Duluth, Mimi, the other
at its extreme south, at Houston. Tex.
The location of both was influenced
more largely by commercial considera-
tions than by the proximity of raw ma
terials. The plant at New Duluth, q
mill of the Universal Portland Cement
company utilizes limestone brought by
boat from the shore of Lake Huron
near Alpena, Mich, and Stag from the
blast furnaces of the Minnesota Steel
company at New Duluth. The plant at
Houston is mill No. 9 of the Texas Port
land Cement company. 1t manufactures
cement from oyster shells dredged from
reef in Galveston Bay and clay from
Harrisburg. Texas. This plant is ON
tidewater, and efforts will be made to
establish for it an export trade with
South America.
In 1914 and 1915 there was decrease
in the production of cement. consumers
exercising strict economy in its use,
but the year 1916 shows reaction,
having opened demand unprecedented
for n midwinter season. Prices, which
had averaged only S6 cents a barrel for
the entire year of 1915. began to rise
toward the end of that year and in the
eastern and middle states. where cement
sold at 20 to 30 cents a barrel, they
continued to rise in 1916 until, in June,
they ranged from $l.l0 to Sl.25 bar
rel. The increased prices, of course, do
not mean an equivalent net increase III
returns to the manufacturers, for the
costs Of explosives for blasting and of
coal have both risen, and laborers are in
many places demanding an increase in
wages. These comparatively hign prices
have not, however, checked the de-
mand for cement. Many manufacture
ers are selling all they can produce,
and others are even drawing on stocks
so as to fill orders.
Although no statistics have been re-
ported TO the United States Geological
Survey at this date, ii is believed that
the total output OF Portland cement for
the first half Of 1916 has considerably
exceeded that for the corresponding
period of 1915.
In general an optimistic feeling pre-
walls among manufacturers, and it Is
confidently predicted tnat the year will
show gain over 1915. both in produc.
ton and shipments of Portland cement
Moreover there is fair possibility that
they will exceed those of 1918 and thus
establish new record.

abatement of prosperity in sight for the
American farmer, who has now enjoyed
an unusually long period of good for
tune. The cry of ''back to the farm, -
was never more justified than now; and
the small margin between production
and consumption in all the international
markets, together with the high prices
( for all farm products, affords a stimuli
lating prospect for the agriculturist. Re-
gardless of the war, the world IS pro-
duction, especially of animal products,
is often below consumption. Our in
dustrial activity is still running at top
speed. The steel trade is positively suf-
fering from over-consumption. Produc-
tion is operated at the limit, yet there
is no cessation in the pressure of or
ders; no signs of weakness in prices,
and steel mills would welcome re-
spite from the urgent demands of con
sumers. Some munition factories are
shutting down; others, of course, are
busy; the rate at which ammunition is
now being consumed at the front stimu-
lating expectations of fresh orders. The
textile trade, especially in New Eng
land, is fairly active and in good con-
dition; the better prices recently OBJ
tanned for most fabrics resulting in in
creased dividends on some mill shares
and resumption on others. The boot and
shoe industry also continues active.
Automobile makers have had a wonder

ed all expectations, while the export
trade on war account has been simply
phenominal.
Great Supply of Gold.
| Financial conditions in the United

Our banks are prosperous and strong,
while our enormous gold supply and
the new federal reserve banks have
impaired an expansiveness to our cur
rency that has much to do with present
activity. National bank loans are about

while bank clearings in June were 46

cent more than in 1914. There is doubt
less much initiation in present values;
and the growth of trade in this country.
domestic and foreign, when measured in
quantities as it should be, is muck
smaller than when measured in values.
Political conditions at home are excep-
tionally quiet and the presidential
campaign for the time being is almost
entirely forgotten. The most interesting
feature has been the introduction OF a
new revenue bill to meet the costs of
preparedness. This bill is expected to
produce about $260,000 900, large pro-
portion Of which is,to be raised by doub-
