will come during the low perod OF

Regulate new buildings and addi-

Plan maintenance and repair work

outside work to the labor available

concerned. The growth of the CO.
operative movement has been In
tensif1ed during the past two years,
and 1t Is very probable that the
next five will see the South very
near to a mastery of its crop selling.
Money Easing Up.
The money situation in the South
has eased up materially in the last
six months. 1t Is not difficult to
get money, even in considerable
quantity. for the right sort of de-
velopment. This means that inter-
est rates are falling and are resum-
ing normal. But normal in the
South will not be the normal of the
East for many years to come. There
is too much demand for develop
ment. too many buildings to be
built, too many industries to be
financed
The highest type of securities has
already witnessed a falling interest
rate; and probably another drop Is
due in the near future. That period
Of exceptional investments at large
figures is gradually passing out.
But so long as Florida and Georgia,
Louisiana, Oklahoma and Texas are
working against time to avail them
selves of the resources which are
found within their borders. SO long
will the interest rate be above the
Eastern rate for the same class OF
securities and the same measure Of
safety.
II wifi be of more than passing
interest to note the further steps in
Southern progress as they are re-
vealed from half year to half year
The story at the end of 1922 will be
scarcely less revealing than the
present undertaking.

about $4,000 or 10000 shares OF the
