1t is reported from Algeria that when
the war ends there will be considerable
activity in building and that there may
be some market for American products
which can be used in the kind of
structural work in vogue in that part
Of Africa. In this connection it is
stated: "The building trade is favor
ably disposed toward American prod
ucts, but American exporters will need
to offer attractive terms to reputable
dealers if business is desired with this
territory. They must be in position
to offer a reasonable guaranaty for de-
liveries and should endeavcr to ship
direct to Algiers rather than via French
ports, route which entails considera-
BILE delay IS we'll as additional expense
in transshipment. There are no steam
crs now sailing directly from the
United States to Algiers. Governments |
restrictions and the very limited tom
mage available via French ports restrict
purchases to commodities of prime
necessity. A direct steamship operat-
ing regularly, perhaps once a month,
or every six weeks, would be vital
factor in developing commerce with
North Africa"

In d IL s trial
Cotton

As in the case generally before
government report, cotton slowed down
yesterday and was rather narrow
throughout the session, with prices
finally unchanged to IL points net
lower. Private condition reports,
pointing to the official bureau figure,
suggest that the latter will be between
n and 70. An average of seven pri-
vate reports thus far issued is I'll,
compared with a ten-year average of
n, but greater decrease is expected
for the month than the ten-year aver
age reduction for. July, which is 2.8
points.
The market at the, opening was
steady, with prices 2 to 26 points lower.
except October, which opened 2 points
higher. There was Liverpool selling
and local pressure which forced active
positions down 81 to 81 points from
the previous close, but in the afternoon
rallies took place, notably one in the
last hour following a condition figure
of 77.5 by Chicago house, and Oc-
tober promptly sold up to 24.90 and
December 24.38, or a few points higher
than Saturdays close.
The crop and weather advices were
again conflicting, those from the South
west indicating deterioration, with
maximum temperatures in the Okla
homa district in excess of 100 at all
stations in the last two days. They
were also high in Texas, and numerous
private advices from that state con-
tinued to lay stress on the poor out
look for the crop, some claiming that
IT = s., r. l.
the deterioration, which is serious in
central and southwest Texas, is extend
ing to northern parts of the state. AS
an instance of how conflicting some Of
the reports are, however, a San An
tonic paper in long review of con-
dltions in Southwest Texas, claims that
dry weather has been more beneficial
to cotton than otherwise, and that
some counties have complained of too
much moisture.
The movement, meantime, keeps
rather liberal in the Southwest and
new cotton has already arrived at
Savannah, coming from Albany, Ca,
and Sanford, Fla. 1t is expected that
the movement will extend we'll north
ward of Southwest Texas by the end
of this week
That farmers are not altogether
satisfied with the price, however, was
indicated in dispatch received yes
terday from Dallas, in which it was
said that farmers in South Texas
hauled cotton home Saturday, refusing
to meet the decline. Spot firms here
were noticed to be buying December in
quiet way throughout the session.
Liverpool has been receiving freer
offerings from the South for some
time, depressing the new crop posi-
tions and promoting the narrowest
Liverpool-New York difference in many
months. although it is expected that
this will widen out when the South
begins to offer cotton freely in the
American markets. Exports to-day nil.
Exports so far this season, 4,o14,144.

Persian Grain Crops

Reports indicate an abundant har-
vest in Persia of wheat and barley
this year. The yield promises to be
far above the average. There was an
unusual snowfall last winter and the
recent rainfall has assured good crops.
Last years harvest was not more than
60 per cent of a normal yield, which,
together with the presence OF foreign
troops, lack of transport facilities, and
boarding, accounts for the present
food shortage

Hog Breeding in Brazil

Small farmers in Brazil are giving
more attention to breeding swine, and
the State of Minas Geraes is in the
lead in this industry. The latest
statistics given are for 1915, and in

population, this state exported hogs
and pork products to the value of

Cereals

Wheat.-The movement Of wheat at
interior points continues to gain stead
lily and has assumed unusual proper
tions. Receipts at all interior markets
on Monday were 1851 900 bushels. COM
pared with 2,777,0OO bushels the pre-
vlous week and 963,o0o last year. These
large arrivals are causing a rapid in
crease in the visible supply, which
showed gain for the week of 1896, 900
bushels, bringing the total to 8,169,0OO
bushels, compared with $3.50 900 a
year ago. The new wheat is being rap
idly distributed to the mills Of the
country and large amount is being
sold for export. Mr.. Hoover has dis
pensed with the wheatless days as a
result of the large new crop, but the
use of -four substitutes will be con-
tlnued, as it is the desire of the food
administration to build up large re-
serve stocks both here and in Europe
IN order TO have supplies on hand to
meet any emergency which may arise.
Crop accounts from the spring wheat
belt continue Of generally favorable
nature, and the winter wheat crop has
been harvested under very satisfactory
weather conditions, which assures its
quality.
Corn.-The appearance of further
good rains over large part of the corn
belt was very reassuring in regard to
the new crop outlook, and the market
broke II CG23sc under active selling bv
recent buyers. A leading crop expert
in the West expressed the opinion that
the weather during the last month has
been unusually favorable for the crop,
and that while some scattered localities
may be suffering for want Of moisture
the belt as whole is in fine condi-
ton. Receipts at the primary points
were somewhat smaller than last week,
but the movement at best is large for
this time Of year, and supplies are ac-
cumulating slowly. The visible supply
gained $4,000 bushels for the week,
bringing the total to 10,092 900 bush
els, compared with 3,144,000 last year.

Washington, Oct. 21.-The new
rules reducing the amount of sugar
which person may us, became eff
fective today. by order of the food ad-
ministration. The clause in the regu-

FRANCE FLOATS A NEW LOAN

Paris, Oct. 21.-The new French
loan was launched today and it is
predicted that it will be put over the
top within the required time. The
French method of floating loans does
not include such an extensive adver-
tising program as the American and
British way. All previous loans have
been uniformly successful, as strong
appeals are made to the patriotism
of the people, who are greatly encour-
aged by the turn Of events daring the
past few months.
