Business Men Take No Chances
on Price Slump.
Money Demands Met in Face of
Huge. 1920 Yield.

Kansas City, Mo-, July 26.-Altho
many lines of trade and industry are
experiencing something of a midsum-
mer quiet and general slowing down
the monthly report of the Tenth fed
eral reserve bank is optimistic as to
the future because of splendid crops
turnout the district.
In the face of the slowing down
of trade and industry, reflected by re-
ports covering June operations" the
report says, there is a feeling in this
part of the United States at least, that
the good crops now in sight are bound
to make business good this fall.
+ Be Bumper Crop.
Intensive effort is being conferred
on the harvesting of grain which, un-
der excellent growing and. ripening
conditions in June and July, is show
ing yields much larger than was fore
cast by previous reports and making
1920 one of the best crop years in
history.
1T is pointed out that while the
political campaign may disturb bust
ness to some extent, and that the pub
lie is becoming more and more con-
sentative in the making of purchases
and investments, reports indicate that
conditions are generally good and such
as to insure healthy business in the
fall and winter.

There are evidences to show that
production in many of the commodity
lines is increasing, and there isia re-
ported tendency toward price recess

levels, however, is coming slowly for
the reason that dealers assert that
their stocks on hand are high cost

materially reduced prices, are made at

wholesalers buying from manufac-
turers, and of retailers buying from
