Financial Review
The Bond Market
By ERIC KoBBE Of Blyth, Witter & Go.


 Throughout the country the bond market appears to have strengthened considerably and it is in better shape today than it has been for months. New issues of large portions from both domestic and foreign sources have met with ready sale, many of them being over subscribed, and the market seems ready to absorb more.
 The higher level of bond prices which always follows the falling of commodity prices has been accentu- ated by this demand so that the ten- dency has been toward higher offer yield. It is entirely reasonable to pre- dict that the excessively high yields now obtainable from the best grade se- curities will soon disappear. It is a peculiar psychological fact that peo- pie will not buy in a falling market, but when the turn comes and prices begin to recover 1t appears to restore confidence, many purchasers appear, and their buying power adds greatly to the strength of the recovery.
 1 Public utilities have gained greatly l in the public's favor. This is due tC their proven strength. a general in crease granted in rates, more plentiful and efficient labor, lower cost of ma terial and better operating conditions The securities of the well conducted public utilities should follow the gen. eral trend toward higher levels.
 The West has come into its own as financial center and its proven abil- 1 ity to absorb large quantities of in- vestment securities brings it a tardJ recognition from the East. We are nc longer a suppliant for eastern capital l but on the contrary the condition o l ha f1CfnT is given due consideration by new if nancing originating in the East while large issues of western companies have been entirely taken up by westerI capital. The best western security bankers are now receiving origina participation in eastern syndicates i such participation is desired.

NEW YORK, Nov. S.-The stock market was the center of another drastic selling movement today, every branch of the list yielding to the in- creasing weight of liquidation at ex- tl-eme recessions of two to seven points.
 There were occasional halts and feeble rallies, but these were sue succeeded by fresh offerings in which new low levels were registered. The tone of the market at the close was weak, on total sales of 1,200,0 shares.
 Among the stocks that suffered greatest impairment were those com prising the shipping, steel, equipment oil and motor group, but even the gilt edged railway issues did not escape the general reversal, all save a few of the transcontinentals forfeiting one to three points.
 Developments over the week end played into the hands of the shorts, the operations of that faction adding substantially to the days unsettle- ment, especially in the volatile indus trials and specialties, for which there was very light demand.
 Increased pessimism was engen- dered by another deficit in clearing house reserves, the lower ration of re- serves reported by the federal rSerVe bank and tightnss of local funds, call loans again rising to 10 per cent after opening at per cent.
 | These conditions were intensified by the further demoralization of foreign exchange and the statement of a prom inent financier that the country is Ion the threshold of period of industrial depression which may justify correc- tive legislation.
 The break in foreign exchange car
 ried sterling down to within 15 cents
 of it's maximum quotation in this mar. ket while French, Italian, Dutch Span
 ish and Scandinavian rates were al
 lowest levels ever recorded here. l Liberty bonds and victory notes re.
 acted moderately and the bond mark ei as whole was affected by the weak
 ness of stocks, rails, industrials, ant internationals, closing at variable re actions. Total sales, par value, az
 gregated $13, ,450,000. Old United State
 bonds were unchanged on call.

FARM TENANCY INCREASING

Farm tenancy instead of ownership is on the increase to an alarming de- gree in certain sections of the south. In Mississippi 66.1 per cent of the farmers of the state are tenants, in stead of owners; in Georgia 65.6 per cent. In South Carolina the percent age is 63.
 According to the monthly bulletin of the University of South Carolina, 6s.7 per cent of the land in that state is now lying idle. Land owners in that state operate a greater percentage of all farm lands than do tenants, but the tenants operate greater percentage of the improved lands than do owners.
 Some of the conclusions reached in the South Carolina bulletin are:
 "Over twice as many of the tenant farms of the state are operated by negroes as are operated by whites.
 Negro owners operate a little over one-tenth of all the farms in the state, and slightly less than one-third of all the farms operated by owners.
 Farm mortgages have been steadily increasing in South Carolina, having trebled in twenty years. New York Times.

MESA. Nov. S.-With the organiza- ton of a new ward in Mesa as the out standing feature, the auxiliary conven- ton and conference of the Maricopa stake of the Latter Day Saints church held in Mesa on Saturday and Sunday was by far the largest attended and most interesting session held here.

 The general conference convened Sunday morning and afternoon in the auditorium and that night the Mu- tuaI Improvement association conduct ed the meeting with talks by various officials from Salt Lake City on the subject Evils of Tobacco"

The district taken in by the new ward will be bounded by Rob- son street on the east, Crismon street on the west, the Utah canal on the north and the base line on the south. The tabernacle on West Second street, which has been in use for many years, will be renovated and remodeled with an expenditure of between $5,000 and S6,000, and will be utilized as the meeting house for the new ward when it becomes active on January l, 1921.

Chickens are the saviors of man kind" says Squire Abner Harpington. Yet it is even so.
 Think of the vast accumulation of gravel which would clutter the earth was it not for the hen. Huge rocks and great cliffs slowly broken down by the ravages of the elements, turning to pebbles and small stones at all times.
 "A moments thought will convince the half-witted that had we no hens with craws to fill with these succulent morsels of mundane disintegration, we must in a few years wade ankle-d deep in gravel and after a few decades have the gravel up to our necks and then annihilation via the gravel route (not to be confused with gall gravel or biad- der stones ]"

 Human existence has become a dreary miserable thing.
 No longer do you find 'em. build ing houses with nice long banisters running down the stairs for a fellow to slide on. You've got to walk down if you don't want to stay up.
 Once they used to put gates on fences so a fellow could swing on 'em when he hadn't anything else to do.
 And now they don't even have fences for a fellow to climb over and practice tight-rope walking on.
 Once they used to have a barn in the yard and hay loft in it and you could play there and hide your Dia- mond Dick books there and some fell lows fell through the trap door and busted their collar bones so they didn't have to go to school for a long time. But now they ain't got hay loft l because they ain't got barn, and they ain't got a barn because they ain't got a horse, and they ain't got a horse be- l cause they've got an automobile.
