Il. G. Dun & Co.'S special report OF
Richmond trade conditions for last
week sums up the situation AZ fol-
lows:
Colder weather has impaired some
activity to the retail trade, and prep
srations are being made for holiday
business. which is expected to be heavy
All indications point to considerable
activity during tho winter. At the
Enme time. mcatlcss days and other
economic moves have very noticeably
curtailed the sale OF meats and some
other KINDS Of food. Retail dealers are
buying principally: staple goods. AZ
the demand has fallen off for novelties
except articles suitable as gifts TO SOL
diers.
Jobbins in most lines is up 10 that
o. last year. while some houses re-
port sales from 20 10 30 per cent
larger. 1t is easier to sell goods than
it is to get prompt delivery. and ship
pers are not expecting any marked i'm
provement in this condition for n long
time.
Owing TO the general lull in build
ing. the demand for yard lumber is
very moderate. However, war orders
tend TO hold prices firm.

Focd Administration Bureau Makes
II Piain That This Country Must

EXPORT FIGURES TELL STORY
Largest Shipments Ever Made, but
MOre Of the Grain Is Wanted, and
Next Years Crops Must Supply
All Demands.

stirling changes that have taken
place in movements of wheat to and
from the United States since the be-
ginning or tho war In Europe are
shown IN figures collected by the
United States food administration. oar
total exports OF wheat for the year
ending June 30. 1917. show an increase
OF 7S,43iGS6 buuhels or close to 10
per cent over the pre-war average.
I'm astonishing large increase in i'm
ports. especially from Canada, is shown.
but the excess of exports over Imports
for the past year amounts to over 51.-
100000 bushels. equivalent to about
half bushel of wheat from every
man. woman and child In this country.
The destination of this wheat is also
interesting. The central powers have
received practically no wheat from the
United States since 1915. Before the
war Germany received 1l.5 per cent OF
the total exports. Shipments of wheat
from this country to Greece have in
creased over 400 fold, and Switzerland.
which before the war received no
United States wheat. imported from US
last year over onc-third as much as
formerly went TO Germany
Economy in the use Of wheat here in
America has helped 10 make the large
exports possible, but with the gradual
depletion or food supplies in Europe
still greater economy of wheat at
home. together with q large 1913 crop,
are essential for the success of the al
lies cause.
Thus in preparing for new year we
have these facts of vital Importance to
American farmers. Our wheat must be
exported on huge scale; it goes TO
our own troops, to our allies and TO
neutrals which arc in need, and whether
peace comes or not, the United States
government guarantees a price of 81 4
bushel for the 1913 crop at primary
interior markets With such induce
mcnts in addition TO patriotic motives.
American farmers are expected TO pro-
ducc 4 wheat crop next year of hitherto
uuriya!cG proportions.
