barley, and oats were marketed
considerably in excess of what
might be considered normal mar
keting for these grains, having due
regard to the size of the crops this
year and last, and the amount mar
keted in September a year ago, and
rye was marketed at less than would
be considered normal when judged
by the same tests. Wheat came Co
market in somewhat more than
normal quantities because the esti-
mated wheat crop Of this year is
but "a per cent of that of year
ago, whereas September receipts of
wheat this year were II ..sper cen.
Of year ago.
There has been no difficulty in
obtaining railroad equipment this
year for the purpose of shipping
grain Therefore market conditions
can more easily influence shipments
than in Nrecent years. The move
ment of corn has been negligible
owing to the fact that farm stocks
were practically exhausted this year,
and new corn had not begun to move
during September.
Livestock Run Big
"The fall run of livestock is we'll
under way with receipts at South
St. Paul much larger in the case of
hogs and sheep and slightly smaller
in the case of cattle and calves a
compared with year ago. The total
run of all livestock measured -
number of head is about Is per cent
greater than last September and
prices show mixed tendencies, in
cresses being shown only in the case
of hogs as compared with the pre-
ceding month.
Business activity in the cities of
this district during September as
reflected by individual debts ut
banks increased slightly as compared
with August but the. increase was
only. ohe-third of what should nor
mally take place at this time of the
year. In fact, the total volume reach
ed the lowest point shown in a..y
September daring the last five years
except September, 1921. This slowing
down in urban business was brought
about largely by the slump in flour
milling production due to a smaller
wheat crop to be milled, as we'll rs
decline in mining output, and less
than seasonal increase in retail trade
in the cities, smaller shipments by.
lumber manufacturers and mixed
conditions in wholesale trade. How
ever, there was very satisfactory
increase in the shipments of linseed
products owing to the very large
volume of flax moving at this time.
1.-THE member banks in this district
as we'll as this Federal Reserve Bank
experienced loan expansion which
is seasonal for September. The de-
mand was not SO great, however, as
to make any substantial increase in
interest rates charged customers by
member banks"
