Gains thus far made in industrial
activity are real, and there is steady
progress toward better business. With
the exception of cotton, the crops are
reasonably good, and their movement
is being reflected in an improved
banking position as farmers obliga-
tons are liquidated. Cotton mills, the
wool manufacture, and the boot and
shoe industry are all holding their I'M
provement of recent months. Although
the steel industry is operating at about
one-third capacity, production of both
pig iron and steel made fair gains in
August. Orders are small, but they
have come from widely diversified
sources, both geographically and as to
industries. Many other in
dustries report slight betterment, and
activity is being remarkably
well maintained throughout the coun-
try.-Commerce Monthly.

test, and plenty of proof exists right
here in Maysville.' People who testi-
fled years ago to relief from backache
kidney and urinary disorders, now
give confirmed testimony-declare the
results have lasted. How can any
Maysville sufferer longer doubt the
evidence?
Mrs. W. A. Schatzmann, COS East
Second street, Maysville, gave the fol-
lowing statement November Is, 1916:
From the benefit l have derived from
the use Of Doan's Kidney Pills l have
every reason to recommend them to
anyone. Whenever my kidneys have
been irregular in action or l have suf-
fered with a weakness or lameness
through the small Of my back I have
used a box or so of Doan's and they
have always proven sufficient to cure
The complaint quickly"
On November %, 1920, Mrs. Schatz-
nHnn said: "Doan's Kidney Pills GER.

mage OF the United States has multi

more than one-tenth as much tonnage

CHICAGO, July responsibilities OF
a railrood embargo against grain
shipments to Chicago had a bearish
influence on the wheat market today.
Of wheat were on track here. Cool.
dry weather in the spring crop belt
tended also to ease prices. Open
ing quotations, which ranged from 4
decline to q advance. with September
1.2s to 1894 and December 1;s2 to
132Z, were followed by material Set-
backs all around.
Corn was easier with wheat AT
er opening u to y lower. including
September at 62a to 621s the market
rallied little. but then ssEged low
er than before.
Oats were relatively f1rm owing
to large export sales at the seaboard.
Prices started * to y higher. Sep
tember 42% to 42h, but later
showed slight losses.
Lower quotations on hogs acted as
a weight on provisions.
Crop reports were favorable and the
market lacked support. The close was
weak, y to 1Ma1A lower, with Sep
tember 61% a81% to 61Ea61B.
Subsequently forecasts Of hot
weather northwest rallied the wheat
market, and SO, too, did indications of
liberal export business. The effect.
however, was only transient. Prices
