Damage to potatoes. which is un-
usually heavy this year is not nearly
so bad in Polk county az in other
parts of the state, according to M. J..
Sullivan, who accompanied the recent
potato tour of the state put on by the
Minnesota agricultural farm, ~
A great deal Of damage has been
done this year by black leg, stem rot.
and insect pests such as flea beetles,
hoppers and the like, Mr.. Sullivan
states. This was. determined in the
tour. The greatest harm in this
state, has been done asst of Halstead.
The hurt is exceptionally bad in Nor
man county and is bad in Clay county
also. In the southern part of the
state the damaged crops are more
general.
Though there is a twenty per cent
increase in the acreage of potatoes
this year. the damage is expected to
lower the total yield to almost the
same as that Of last year, Mr.. Sulli.

IF France. on the other hand. were
to march an army to Berlin, and to

u quite possible that this might align
Russia, italy and e possibly Eng

be an undesirable situation from every

experience the business boom that we
had at the beginning of the last Euro

cal weapons. of warfare developed
since 1918 can be made just as well

volume for the last month runs only
about 1000 less than the record year
OF, 1918. This is regarded by cattle
men as most favorable.
The up-sWinging cattle markets al
the stockyards are also cause for con.
dence among breeders and feeders
added Mr.. Kinzer. During the last
three months the market for killing
cattle has shown a pronounced trend
upward, reaching the extreme top Of
the year at $10.s5 per hundredweight
in Chicago. during. the last week OF
July. This is most suspicious wher
compared with the eight and nine dol.

Markets
STOCKS REVIEW.

~ New York, Aug. - strong
technical position OF. the stock market
when prices continued to move to
higher ground in the face of increas-
ingly> serious strike developments.
Trading vas restricted, investors
apparently being disposed to await
the. settlement Of the coal and rail
strikes before indulging in extensive
market operations. but attempts Of
ton were met with sturdy resistance.
The governments report of bumper
crop conditions impaired strength to
shares of most grain carrying rail-
roads, most OF which advanced to
new high records for the year. with
sympathetic gains in such stocks as
International. Harvester, ADVANCE
and Montgomery Ward, which will
benefit by the increased earnings Of
northwestern farmers.
The increase Of 14O. $40 tons in the
untitled July contracts of the United
States Steel corporation was i%nterpre-
tea as being due to increased produc-
ton resulting from the coal shortage
rather than to an increase in new
orders. Weekly iron and steel re-
views continue to give pessimistic re-
ports Of conditions in that industry,
which is suffering from its inability
20 get SuInc1ent coal. /. ga.
Further price cuts in the automo-
bile Industry reflect the seasonal
quieting down Of demand and pro-
duction. &5. rN,B%
The action Of the senate in increas-
ing the tariff on Cuban sugar caused
a decided weakening in the prices of
those stocks but they rallied, later on
reports of the fine statistical condi-
ton Of that industry! Leather. and
shoe stocks also improved on Senator
Lodges announcements that hides and
feathers would be on the free list in
the new tariff bill.
Fluctuations In the call money rate
between 3 ,1-2 and S per cent were
ascribed to the seasonal demand for
funds In the agricultural districts, but
this supply was plentiful at all times.
Foreign exchanges, were unsettled
at the beginning Of the week on the
lunfavorable news emanating from the
mesting of Allied premiers in Lon
don, but they strengthened later on
the prospects of an agreement being
reached IN the separations question.
Bushes in foreign exchange was vir-
1tually at a .standktill because of cable
congestion. local banks experiencing
long delays in their European cables.
