Trade, industrial and crop reports

in cotton, which was seven cents above

is brisk at prices nearly eight cents

Chicago Produce Market

tnlcago. Sept. ".
twithstanding numerous upturns
wheat averaged lower in price today
largely as Il result OF increasing ar
rivals of new wheat at Winnipeg. The
market here closed unsettled at the
same as Yesterdays rinish to cent
down, with December Log to 1.02s
and May los to 1.0Ss. Corn finished
at range varying from iT4c decline
to &c advance. oats to &c up, and
provisions at &c to 22c gain.
With advices at hand that reports
of new wheat in Winnipeg tomorrow
would total 400 cars as against 9S9
today and e33 a week ago buying or
dcrs here failed to follow advances in
price. Purchasing was confined large
~ to houses that had been on the sell
ing side of late and were in a position
to collect profits. The fact that values
high point attracted some notice. but
failed to stimulate sustained buying.
On the other hand. bears estimated
that Canadian farmers had marketed
?, 200 00n bushels at country points Yes
terday and 3.0O0.G60 bushels the day
before and that the aVerag &c would eX-
coed 100000 bushels within short
time.
During the late dealings. especially.
wheat here showed downward ten
dency with indications pointing to In
reascd hedging pressure. Exporters
were said to have been good buyers
early at Winnipeg. hut the seaboard
continued to emphasize mention of
relatively slow demand from Europe.
Bulls meanwhile got some comfort
from an official estimate that the car
ry-over of old wheat in Canada Is H.
200, 600 bushels compared with 19,462,-
c06 last year.
Corn was easy with wheat despite
complaints of damage by frost oats
were firm owing to scantiness or re-
cepta here.

BACK HOME AFTER
1900 MILE TRIP

Ballard Fuller has recently re-
turned from an 1900 mile trip which
he made in his Nash six roadster. Mr..
i'ullcr went to Washington. ID. c., by
Wav of New York City, Philadelphia,
Baltimore. Though he experienced
rainy weather while in the National
capital. Mr.. Fuller saw many points
OF interest and enjoyed the visit
greatly. The return from New York
was made up the Hudson river and
over the Mohawk Trail to Boston.
Mr.. Fuller believes that his Nash
car gave him a remarkable perform
ance on this trip, in that the total gas
consumption for the 1900 miles over
all kinds of roads and including
tedious city traffic driving was only
102 gallons. Mr.. Fuller reports that
the entire trip to Washington and the
return to the Mohawk Trail was
made without a single gear shift for
hill.

New Eng. Apples Show
Big Gain Over Last Year

From repOrts of condition Sep
TENDER !, the Bureau of Agricultural
Economics estimates the New Eng
land commercial apple crop at 1,3S2.-
600 barrels against l ,060. 600 last year,
and 11S3,000. the 5-year average.
Quality on the whole, is good, the
ranging from poor to excellent, and
the fruit is coloring quite we'll. Size
is fair to good and would have been
better with little more rain. Nc
IntOsh is the leading fall variety with
GraVenstein and Wealthy close
seconds, while Baldwin leads in WIN
ter apples with Greening, Ben Davis,
Spies and others not far behind.
The eleven barrel apple states out
side New England have 1861 600
barrels this year compared with
15.1G40O0 last year. and 12.927 900, the
swear average while the totals for
all barrel apple states are 1G,l43.O0o
this year: 1924 900 last year and
1f.1I0.000 the J-ycar average.
Perhaps the most significant fea-
ture OF the entire crop is the rapid
increase IN box apples OF the four
Pacific coast states. This year, their
combined crop is 13.56S,000 barrels
against 1883, 900 last year. and p
100000 their swear average. Box
apples are 40 percent of the total
commercial crop this year, and bid
fair to soon be more than half the
total. Their production, thus far, has
run relatively much higher than is
true of the barrel territory. indicating
fewer adverse conditions. The United
states crop is one of good quality.
CANADA-The Nova Scotia crop
promises somewhat more than last
year. as is true of British Columbia
box apples. while Ontario shows con-
sidera bic decrease. The English crop
is reported very much less than last
Year.

There is no questioning the feeling of
unusual comfort and the definite i'm
preston of stability and solidity
which contribute so materially to sat
iSfaction in driving.
The splendid riding comfort of the
new Dodge Brothers cars is due
largely TO the type of rear spring
suspension employed. The rear
springs which are extremely long, are
under slung. Also, the fact that the
body has been heightened and low
cred tends to make the car cling more
firmly to the road.
The new car is, in every sense, a
remarkably easy riding car.

thus shown to be $106 or 1873 per

The official figures reveal that should

During the conference of operators
