INCINNATTS strong finish,
4 which entitled the Reds to
~ snatch second place on the
last day of the season, has raised
high hopes in the Ohio Rhineland
for the season of 1923. The sturdy
burghers of Cincinnati say that
the Reds can't be stopped next
season and already are claiming a
new pennant.
AS a matter OF fact. II It hadn't
been for Cincinnati's terrible start
last spring the Reds might have
met the Yankees in the world series.
While the Giants started to mop up
the teams Of the East in the early
spring. the Reds lost ten Of their
first eleven games. Where the
Giants always had their spring re.

Reds were handicapped throughout
the season by that wretched April
start.

Cincinnati had some other bad
breaks last season. Pete Donohue.

with a bad arm, while Jack Scott

The fact that Marquard won sew
enteen games for the Reds in 1921
with a sixth place club showed how
much the Reds had hoped for from
Scott, Jacks subsequent comeback
with the Giants did not make the
Red fans feel any better over this
transaction.
Then Luque pitched brilliant ball
all year. but simply could not win.

BOOST OF FARM PRODUCTS PRI-
CES ATTRIBUTED PARTIALLY
TO FOREIGN EXCHANGE
RISE.

Sioux City, March Increased
prices for both grain and live stock
have brought encouragement to far
mers and some liquidation in the
agricultural sections of the Seventh
federal reserve district, says the re-
port of the Chicago reserve bank re-
ceived in Sioux City Sunday.
1t is stated that an improved SEN
timent has appeared not only be-
cause of the increase in prices, but
also because many farmers are just
beginning to realize the extent to
which other lines of industry suf-
fered during 1921.
Financial statements of many
large business concerns are showing
large money losses, running in many
cases into millions of dollars. These
losses, ii is stated by the reserve
bank, are not confined to those di-
rectly connected with the prosperity
of the agricultural sections, such as
manufacturers of farm implements
and equipment and packers, but ex'
tend to large business concerns Of
almost every other line OF manufac-
ture and distribution. Some of those
suffering heavy losses have been in
years past the most prosperous.
A part of the increase in prices oi
farm products, especially of hogs, re
suits from the rise in foreign ex
change rates, which began in the
last quarter of 1921. The effect Of
government aid is beginning to b'
felt, especially in the western par
of the reserve district, In which
Sioux City is situated.
Advances approved for agricultur
al and live stock purposes by the wal
finance corporation up to Februar!
28 amounted to $198,923,076, o
which $29,780,368 was to states ly
ing largely in the Seventh fedora
reserve district. OF the last named
amount Iowa received $21,1S4,50O
Illinois received only $4,323.S6S.

ucts is source Of encouragement II

ing agricultural communities strict

ers.
Bankers and farmers, says the re
serve bank report, are preparing 10
March settlements, and previous ex
perience has been, where such prep
aration is made, tnat serious distur
bance seldom materializes. In som
parts of the district farmers are har'
pressed for omney to pay taxes an
interest, it is stated, but to what ex
tent there will be defaults by iarg
borrowers in the agricultural sec
tions it is impossible to estimate
this time.

per cent cent belongs to two COM
panies, according to the records in

with a total of 24O miles. Brown
county is second, with 1888 miles
and Sphinx is third with 1906 mil
es.
Nine counties, including all Of

side world by steel rail are Benner
Buffalo, Harding and Mellette.

STATE SECURES
COAL REDUCTION
INTERSTATE COMMERCE COM
MISSION DECIDES CASE IN
VOLVING RATES FROM MON
TANA.

Pierre, March Information an
nouncing that the interstate COM
merce commission has handed down
its decision in the coal rate case in
volving rates from Montana coal dis
tricts, including the Roundup and
Carpenter Greek mines, to points in
South Dakota has been received by
the state railroad commission.
Detailed figures are not yet avail
able here, but the announcement
states that there will be a material
reduction in these rates.
The case was commenced follow
ing the refusal of the Chicago and
Northwestern Chicago, st. Paul,
Minneapolis and Omaha and the
Minneapolis and st. Louis railroads
to establish joint rates from the
Montana mines to stations on their
respective lines, and their insistence
on charging combinations of local
rates to and from junction points
with the Chicago, Milwaukee and
ST. Paul.
The railroads contended that they
should be permitted to supply the
fuel requirements of their stations
from Lake Superior, Lake Michigan
or Illinois mines, thereby giving
them a longer haul than they would
receive on shipments from the
western district.
The state railroad commission held
that the people of the state were en-
titled to reasonable rates from all
sources of supply; that the fuel from
the nearby Montana fields should be
made available through the publica-
tion of more reasonable joint rates.
