Fog. Record Fail business

Leading manufacturers of malachite
green declared yesterday that the ex-
port demand for this color this wear
mas been unusually heavy. Large
shipments have been made to japan.
China and British India during the
past few months and manufacturers
are now busy filing contracts over
the remainder Of the year. This color
IS used IN the Orient chiefly for the
anc fancy shawls and rugs. The do
nestle call is limited.
Mile purchases for domestic ac-
count showed 1t marked increase the
cNestutfs market gives indications Of
Improvement as the fall season adj
vances. Although most sales are in
small lot sales. with little contract
business being done, prices are firm.
The big buying season for the year
runs from October to March and deal
crs have prepared for a record volume
Of business.
The Importation of six months

Nkely to have more than a temporary
effect on the market. in the opinion Of
dealers, IS American manufacturers
nave voiced their preference for
Amercan last colors equal in quantity
to German vat colors, once they are
produced in commercial quantities.
Processes for the manufacture of
American vat dyes are now being in
stalled at several plants and produc-

SIX months. The manufacture of these
colors has been delayed by lack of

LEATElER---Re efailers Fear
Shortage and Treble Orders

Manufacturers representative stated
yesterday that although few statesmen
have been sent out so far this fall, a
large part Of the output for spring
delivery had already been contracted
for through orders sent to the fac
tories by wholesalers and retailers. Re
tailers. fearful lest there be short
age of shoes, are ordering from two to
three times as many pairs Of shoes as
they customarily take. One whole
saler who put out an advance line of
spring styles stated that his entire
stock was taken in an afternoon. as
retailers who never bought more than
thirty-six dozen pairs
Manufacturers and wholesalers are
endeavoring to discourage this practice
among retailers, as it tends to .ggra-
vate the unsettled condition ~ the
market. OverUroduction is not feared
so much as the radical price advances
which may result from this abnormal
demand, it was said. AS manufact-
urers production is less than 60 per
cent o. normal at present. another det-
rimenta1 effect of the heavy demand
Tor shoes IS the necessity of refusing
old customers and assigning output on
a pro rata basis.
in discussing the rapidity Of price
fluctuations, one wholesaler stated
that mons shoes which cost him $3.50
a palr less than a year ago were quoted
at $4.25 two weeks back. When this
man went into the market to purchase
these shoes last week they cost him
$3.50 a pair

METAlS--SeCond-Hand
Copper Becoming Scarce

Although SPECTATORS and brokers
are still offering September copper at
more than cent below the 23l2 cent
quotation maintained by the leading
producers, the amount of this so-called
secondhand metal is getting notice
ably scarce. This condition is said to
be due to the fact that manufacturers
of copper goods are booking orders more
RAPIDLY and are finding it increasingly
dlfiicult to I'll current needs ut the
cut prices. Unless labor troubles be
come more acute it is predicted that
consumers will enter the market within
the next few days on a large scale and
that they will be forced to fill their
needs at the prices asked by the lead
ing interests.

.SILkS-Smali Output
CurfdiIs Business

All factions in the silk market yes
terday emphasized the continued cur
tailment of business because Of com
paratively low productions The effect
Of the delay in the manufacture Of
goods was reflected by the appearance
Of many out-of town merchants in the
market, whose main efforts were de
voted to eXpeditng delivery Of orders
they placed many weeks ago. The. diff
fculty of shipping merchandise has
greatly delayed the opening Of spring
displays. and some of the larger mills
announced that they will make no effort
to exhibit in their salosrooms the
spring lines. Others are making stren-
uous efforts to offer samples by Octo-
ber !, feeling that their customers
viii be drawn to competitors if their
orders for spring merchandise cannot
be accepted by that date.
Those buyers in the market in addi-
ton to urging delivery OF their orders
also sought to make purchases to re
place stocks that have been depleted
by the large retail business of the late
summer and early fall. The volume
Of this business was exemplifed by
the orders placed by retail merchants
for broad silks in fancy patterns. Ordi-
narlly retailers do not recorder fancy
goods, but sales this year have been
so heaVy that they are making extern
sive replacement purchases.
The general situation in the silk bus
mess was summarized by one of the
large jobbers as follows:
The retail merchants Of the coun-
try are in the midst of one Of the most
profitable seasons they have ever known.
Buyers are not only placing large
orders for spring merchandise, but are
reordering fall goods. Staple silks,
especially in black, are in the great
est demand and huge orders are daily
being refused by both jobbers and
mills because Of the shortage of stocks
Out of town jobbers are endeavoring
to buy large stocks of goods in antici-
patton of spring business, but mills
as whole, will not yet quote prices
on business that far in the future.
Mills are bending every effort to pro
duce goods which are represented by
the vast orders on their books They
are unable to consider any business
beyond January l."
The demand for all classes of silks
is generally heavy. Prices have re-
manned firm, with a recent slight ad-
vance in taffetas. Some of the mills
have increased their figure on that
fabric an average of 10 cents yard

JE WEIR --Boons Noso
Is Nation-W ide

Reports from every section Of the
jewelry trade manufacturing and
retail, tell the same storv-a demand
for goods far in excess OF the supply.
Although the jeweler is having greater
prosperity than ever before he is
troubled by the loss Of sales which
resul from the lack of merchandise
wanted by his customers.
1t is no longer question Of selling
goods that the jewelcr has to consider
1t IS q question Of getting supplies.
The enormous demand does not exist
IN New York alone, as many believe,
but throughout the country Manu-
facturers with Offices in the oil states
fields has doomed the buying Of
jewelry. They assert. that many Of
their largest diamond rings and pins
are being sold to people who made for
tunes in the oil boom.
Reports from the farming districts
tell he same story. One manufac-
turer said yesterday that he believed
from he heavy buying in the farming
sections that every farmers daughter
and wife is wearing d diamand ring.
Another manufacturer pointed out that
in some Of the farming districts where
the S35 and 500 watches were popular
before the war very few are now sold.
The farmers, he said, got more money
for thir corn and wheat and other com
modlties and are Speeding some OF it
in buying tie better grades Of jcwelry.
paying in most eases from $l25 to $500
for q watch.
This heavy buying Of the better
grade of goods does not Necessarily
mean that the cheaper grades have
been neglected On the contrary,
manufacturers report enormous sales.
Novelty iewclry is also meeting with
element in this country with the de-
mand centred on rings with sparkling
colors. lmmitation pearl necklaces and
beaded chains.

slight falling off ia the demand. 1t
is believed that the heavy purchases
during the last two weeks by japanese
mills have provided them with sufficient
stocks for The time being. and this,
coupled with the light demand for
American consumption, has brought
about q slackenng in the volume Of

SWEET LITTLE LIFE
CALLED TO MASTER

Vernon Wilbur Akers, the young
est son of Mr.. and Mrs. Ralph
Akers, was born June 10th, 1913
and died August 9Th, 1919, at the
age Of 6 years., 4 month, 10 days.
Besides his sad parents he leaves
seven brothers and sisters. They
were Gerald, Olive, Violette, Their
esa, Ralph, Earl and Irmal. There
are also numerous relatives and
friends.
Vernon was a sweet, lovable
child on which the curse of sin had
not yet fallen. He loved his Sun
day School and his teacher and was
the best little worker in the class.
His last sickness started with his
tonsils. These spread poison thru
his body. His death was brought
on by hemorrhage. His last words
were "I'm tired" And then he lay
down to rest.
+ Funeral services we're conducted
by Rev. Matson in the Christian
Church Saturday afternoon and in
terment was made in the Extra
cemetery. The bereaved family
have the sympathy of all.
Now like a dewdrop shrined
Within a crystal stone,
Thou'rt safe in Heaven, my boy!
Safe with the Source Of Love,
The Everlasting One.
And when the hour arrives
Il From flesh that sets me free,
Thou shalt there await
The first at Heavens gate,
To meet and welcome me-"
