FEDERAL RESERVE BANK REPORT

States bonds and notes held, the bank
closing the year with $3,142,340. There
was an especially rapid increase in
the volume of bankers acceptances
carried, the bank opening the year
with $477,S00 and closing the year
with $6,200,000. The holdings of state,
municipal and other warrants during
the year showed very much higher
averages than during the preceding
annual period.
Clearings through the transit de-
partment Of the reserve bank showed,
from July Is to the close Of the year,
a total of $329,826,000, involving the
handling Of 1,541,000 separate items.
The clearing house established by the
reserve bank to handle transactions
between st. Paul and Minneapolis
banks. showed q total Of the same
period Of $573.S3S,000
Chairman Rich comments upon the
Wisconsin bank case. and the decision
Of the federal reserve board, which on
Jan. /, removed from the membership
of the federal reserve bank fifty-two
Wisconsin banks in a territory includ-
ing twenty-six counties, taking away
from it 1928, 400 Of capital and deposits
Of 1,376,000. This reduction cut
down the membership to TOT banks,
or approximately the number which
the bank had at the time of organiza-
ton. Additions Of membership during
the past year were such as to indicate
that the loss of members will be large
ly offset by additions during the COM
ing year, due to the fact that in the
entry Of state banks and the organiza-
ton OF new national banks, the Ninth
district has for the last year led all
other reserve institutions.
The reserve bank issued a. total Of
50 220 00O in federal roGnrxyo n0faG dYIr-
ing the year, bringing its total circula-
ton UP to $21. $3.50, 900. The large in
crease in circulation was based on the
exchange of gold and the total out
standing circulation is covered dollar
for dollar with gold held by the fed
eral reserve agent.
Crop moving demands required a
total of $S,500,000. which was promptly
put into circulation for the handling
of grain. The report notes that while
the crop was far short Of the 1915
crop, the unusually high prices re-
quired total issue for this purpose
which was 100000 in excess of the
amount required to move the previous
crop.
In his concluding remarks, Chairman
Rich says:
I'm an institution only 26 months
old, established to have a practical
usefulness in a new and untried field
the problem OF organization and of
the development Of settled and effec1
tive methods Of work has been diff
cult. The bank closes the year after
having reached a high degree Of
operating efficiency. In all depart
ments there is ample evidence that
the adjustments involved in establish
ing settled policies and methods have
been satisfactorily accomplished"

Encouraging Annual Reports Gioen
Attic Fargo Y. W. c. A.. Meeting

Mrs. w. B. Hancock, president Mrs,
Frank Bracelin. Mrs. A. o. Hanson, Mrs.
John Nelson, Mrs. e. H. Stickney and
Miss Minnie Pearman. The new board
will meet to organize for the year, at
$3.50 o'clock Thursday morning, in the
association parlorS.
Mrs. Hancock has been a most ear
nest and energetic worker in the inter-
Der of years, and several speeches were
made last evening paying tribute to her
efforts and their good results. Follow
ing a rising vote of thanks which was
short but excellent talk, expressing
some valuable ideas as to further adj
Vancement in the association work, and
speaking of some of the good which she
had CLEANED from her endeavors in that
cause.
An interesting feature Of the meet
ing was the report of Mrs. Bessie
Zickefoose, general secretary, who, al
sition for only three months past. has
already accomplished so much along
lines of Y. w. G.. A. endeavor here.
and whose further plans betoken one
of the best years in every way, that
the association has ever enjoyed. In
speaking of the condition of the work
as she found it here, Mrs. Zickefoose
paid a high tribute to the splendid
labored under the handicap of having
no general secretary in charge. She
called attention to the good foundation
upon which the present force has to
work, and considered the outlook a
most hopeful one. The work at the
''Y'' in all lines has been most pleas
ant. and the enrolment in the various
classes and departments has been very
gratifying. These classes are to be re-
sumed next week, after adjournment
during the holidays.
Other reports given last evening. all
of which were heard with much inter-
est, were those of Mrs. F. Q. Olsen, Sec
Rotary; Mrs. A. @; Hanson, finance com-
Minnie Pearman, membership, for Mrs.
GEORGE Sweetland, who was unable to
be present; and Miss Marie Lobben.

stood that fish will not be included in
the order.
2. sugar-'Rationing" by the state,
probably by a system Of tickets. There
is enough sugar to go round at pres
ent: 1t Is the old system OF distribu-
ton that is at fault.
3. Bread-Maize, barley, and oats
to be included among the ingredients
for baking. Maize blends most easily.
barley Is the most palatable, and oats
the most nutritious of the three. There
may not be much maize to spare, as
it can be put to other and even bet
ter uses in our present situation.
4. Potatoes-A big program Of saw
ing to be undertaken, to insure next
seasons supplies.
5. Pigs-As urgent a matter as po-
tatoes, both provide a great part of
the staple food Of the working classes.
Special steps to be taken to increase
largely the number Of pigs in this
country.
AS stated in our city notes. the tea
trade has been given to understand
that the space to be allotted to the
transport of tea will in future be much
curtailed. This news had the effect
OF considerably increasing yesterday
the prices of Indian tea.

High Prices Made the Great L'Esgo's
Trick Too Costly. 80
Chicago Herald: Great Lego, the
magician who does the famous egg
trick in vaudeville, packed his trunks
a few days ago and walked out Of the
bill at local continuous show. The
high price Of eggs drove him to IL.
The illusionist breaks eighteen eggs
at every performance. AS long as he
was doing two day" it wasn't so bad.
But when he learned that he had to
appear at seven daily turns he got out
his pencil. and this is what he found:
Eigheen eggs per performance, null
tipIied by seven performances, 126
eggs; seven days, total OF SS2 eggs; at
81 cents dozen, the current price.
$40, less 10 per cent booking fee; would
leave him 1922 loser on the week:
The grand finale of BEggo's per-
Torrance is when he breaks the eight
cen eggs employed in each turn into a
large bowl, passes magic cloth over
the mess, and brings out flock OF
chickens. The eggs are necessarily
perishable, and as such are not furnish
ed as props" by the house. So LEGO
rolled down his sleeves and made his
