DUN'S WEEKLY REVIEW

NEW YORK, Aug. 23.-Duns tomor- row will say:
 Recovering tendencies in trade and industry have appeared in some sec tions where excessive heat and humid ity had repressed activities and more vigorous prosecution of the war work has fortunately been possible. The necessity for intensive productive eff fort becomes increasingly evident as government wants expand beyond all previous calculations, and the restric- lions on regular business, varied and marked as they have already been, are not only tightening steadily but are also extending into new channels.

Local Produce Market

New almonds and dates are now on the local markets and are of excellent quality.
 Two cars of fruit came in on the To- cal markets yesterday A car of po- tatoes and a car of onions is expected in today.
 The tomato market is quoted some what lower now. There is an abun- dance of very fine Stone variety to- matoes on the markets now from Cali fornia.
 Grapes are plentiful now and the price is being lowered on them. A large acreage of sweet potatoes was planted this season by local grow CTS. This somewhat lowers the prices on this commodity. and if Irish po- tatoes advance much more, sweet po- tatoes will be as cheap or cheaper than the later.
