tinue a deterrent feature, though
some Improvement is noted in this
direction.
Wholesale trade in shoes, hats and

and provisions at wholesale are N
good demand
Retail trade is quiet in most lines,
particularly in clothing and in non
essential tines.
Manufacturing in practically all
lines In active, though some curtail

of general building which continues

Cotton is developing good growth.
Vegetables are scarce. The apple

$4,000 TONS NITRATE
RECEIVED BY FARMERS

washington, Aug. 2.--Despite tbs
sho rtage of ships and two snlpwrecks.
farmers received $4,000 tons OF
nitrate OF soda from Chile. bought
through the war Industries board ana
distributed by the United states de-
partment of agriculture. according 10
an announcement just issued by the
bureau of markets.
The nitrate was sold and delivered
under authority OF the food controi
act which authorized the President
to procure and sell nitrate OF soda at
cost for the purpose of increasing food
production. and appropriated WV
000. 900 for this purpose. The war
Industries board was designated by
the President to make arrangements
for the purchase of the nitrate and
the secretary of agriculture was
charged with it's sale and distribution.
The nitrate was sold at $3.50 a ton
at ports, It's cost as nearly as 1t could
be determined in advance. Appiica-
tons for more than 120. 900 tons, the
total amount purchased in Chile, were
received by the department In Feb
ruary. 1918. On account OF shortage
of available shipping 1t was possible
to bring in only $4,000 tons, leaving on
hand in Chile between $4,000 and
40. 0o6 tons Ships have Just been as
signed by the shipping board for the
transportation to this country OK the
remainder of the nitrate contracted
for last year which, of course. cannot
be used this season.
No announcement can be made at
this time, says the statement from the
department, as to whether nitrate win
be offered for sale to farmers next
year. The question OF procuring
nitrate for agricultural purposes ~
closely connected with the demand for
nitrate for munitions and with the
availability OF tonnage for bringing In
the nitrate It has been intnaated TO
the department by the war industries
board and the war depar tment that
the need for nitrate for munitions Il
such that it Ia doubtful whether Il VII
be possible to import any next year
for use as fertilizer.
