BUSINESS IN WEST
IS MORE HOPEFUL
Credit Situation Easier and
Improvement Expected
To Continue.

CHICAGO. Sept 25.-Is the re-
vival of business and industry per-
manent or is it a spasmodic upturn
which frequently comes after a de-
pressed period? This is the cues
tion uppermost in the minds of the
financial and business world. There
have been many predictions of i'm
provement made hitherto by lead
ing interests in all lines, but the
present conditions seem to have n
better basis for permanent i'm
provement than any heretofore,
Money is easier. and the investing
public is taking hold more freely,
as shown by the improvement in
the stock market. The action of
the War Finance Corporation in
loaning money to the farmers has
practically put the Farmers FL
nance Corporation out Of business.
1t has helped the railroads. the lat
ter having sold S25.623.5 of rail-
road equipment trust certificates.
making total of s33,1S4.ooo of
these securities. and it has $685.
100000 still to dispose of.
Large corporations have been en-
abled to float big blocks of securi-
ties of late and many of the mu-
inequalities in this section have dis
posed of millions of dollars of Sc
curities for improvement and re-
funding.
Railroads are readjusting freight
rates on a downtown scale, the
latest being a cut of IS per cent in
rates of vegetables from the Paci
fic Coast to Chicago and Mississip-
pi River points. There is not a
very heavy movement of such prod
ucts at this time, however. but a
little later the new rate will be a
big help. Grain and livestock rates
have been reduced, and the rail-
roads are doing more business than
at any time this year, with the
freight loadings merely equal to
those of last year.
There has been an enormous
marketing OF grain since harvest,
3oo, 900, 900 bushels having already
left the farms. Chicago has
shipped e0.O00.000 bushels Of all
grains by lake alone since the
middle of April.

SMITH THANKS BOIL WEEVIL
BUT SAYS "NEVER AGAIN.
Huge Holdover Cotton Supply Makes the Bug
A Godsend for Just This Once.

MEMPHIS, Sept 25.-"All hail
TO the boil weevil." say those who
have cotton that could not or would
not be sold during the period OF In
f,ated prices and whose value there
after declined to a point far below
cost OF production. Joining In the
chorus OF adulation are many others
in various walks Of life throughout
the belt, for apparently. to this little
nest Is due more than to any other
one factor the wonderful change
which has come to. the South's busi-
ness and commercial feeling during
the past few weeks.
That thousands of banks. business
concerns and people generally have
been brought from state OF prac-
tical bankruptcy to one of soivency
and to start toward prosperity
largely because Of the activities OF
the weeviI Is admitted by all who
are familiar with conditions. Whether
the rise of $40 to $50 the bale in the
value Of cotton will be sustained Is
another question; for the better
thought OF the belt is now looking
more to the economic side OF the pic
ture and the ability Of the world to
consume as much. Of the raw mater
ial at the higher prices as had besn
counted on as sure while prices were
so cheap. Moreover. there are those
whom the unprecedented activities OF
the weevil have not helped. for the
tremendous reduction in yield from
what was reasonably expected can
hardly be offset by the enhancement
Of prices thus far indicated.
Plans for Next Season.
There are also far-sighted people
who are wondering as to the future
production of cotton in the belt,
now that the weevil has extended
II practically the entire area. They
are thinking of the coming season
even now, for IL the pest shoula
be as bad. or anything near It.
The Washington herald., 1921-09-26

next season II is not conceivable
that prices could go high enough
to make the aggregate return to
the South sufficient to compensate
for the smaller yield; the carry
over will not be SO large. History
teaches that the greatest measure
of prosperity comes to this section
when there is a moderate cotton
crop and prices are neither very
high nor very low.
The crop this season is going
tc be gathered earlier than in. many
years. and one picking in many
sections will get II all, whereas
ordinarily il takes two or three.
Already reports are reaching here
that 1t is nearing completion in the
lower sections of this territory.
Hard Winter May Help.
When picking is completed there
VIII probably be a widespread ef-
fort to destroy as many weeviIs
as possible by burning the stalks
and cleaning the fields. but unless
there comes a winter season Of un-
usual severity chances will be in
favor Of another very short cron
In 1922. II temperatures do not
get TO zero and below there will
be no difficulty whatever in mort
o; the belt in restricting the acre
age planted to cotton.
The general policy among hold
ters and producers is to marke,
gradually at current levels and
banks are offering no pressure
Whatever to force selling. They
see no occasion for 1t. although
they may have to resort to II in
case there develops any pronounced
tendency TO stop selling at a time
when obligations mature. Collec.
ions are improving already anC
bid fair to be better still as NOR,

SPRING WHEAT IS
MOVING: RAPIDLY
Daily Market Receipts in
Northwest Are Nearly Dou-
bic Those of 1920.
Especial Correspondents Of The washington
Herald and New York Evening Pest.)

Especial Correspondenoe OF The Warrington
Herald and New York Evening Psst.)
MINNEAPOLIS, Sept 25.-Spring
wheat Of the Northwest Is coming
into the market in a golden food
Receipts at local elevators today
were In excess OF 1000 cars, as
compared with 500 cars a year ago,
and this is typical Of what is hap
pening every day. The phenomenal
increase is due not merely to the
fact that our crops matured a full
fortnight earlier than in 1920. but
rather to the eagerness with which
farmers are disposing of their pro-
duce this season. And this in spite
of poor prices offered by a badly
flooded market.
Contrast with Last Year.
The comparison between the
status of affairs in 1920 and that
of 1921 Is striking in more ways
than one. A twelvemonth ago
prices were still fairly good. but
with the prospect of a much lower
market. and yet the farmers of the
Northwest held their wheat off the
market to their own ultimate loss
and discontinue. Right now. on
the contrary, prices are not espe-
cially Attractive, and the market
shows every ebidence of going
but producers are dumping their
wheat on the market blindly.
In view of the exceptionally
heavy receipts at terminal elevators
the wondeer is that prizes have held
up so we'll. That wheat is selling
at higher levels than a month ago
is pretty clear proof OF the under
lying strength Of tn market. II
farmers would exercise a little pa
thence and foresight at this time
and await the upturn of prices
which many observers predict
would be the gamers.
The unfortunate thing about the
present selling mania is that farm
ers for the most part have not
been compelled to dispose of their
wheat thus early in the season.
Banks have not been forcing their
rural clients to liquidate their
grain at prices which are not prof
liable.
Cooperative Marketing.
The influence OF farmers Good
erative organizations Is also
against. too hytas marketing. The
unfortunate experience which
producers themselves have had the
past two years in attempting to
market their own wheat alone
and unaided has furnished the lead
ers of these cooperative societies
with seemingly overwhelming ar
guments in behalf of their move
ment. They insist that had the
farmers of the Northwest beer,
Joined together in one or more mar
keting pools their wheat would
have been released only as the
market was able to absorb Il.
