THE BUSINESS CYCLE

business experts are pretty we'll agreed that the
naton is entering upon business cycle The pre-
sent year. as they it. has marked the end of the last
cycle, the slump and the period of REIMBURSEMENT Now
begins the up-turn They do not promise any boom
remarkable in intensity DURATION but they believe
there Is now beginning period of general and pros
porous business activity which will last through next
year. at least.
This is cold, scientific conclusion of leve-headed
observers. Recent Wall Street activity, with buyers
market and records broken the stock exchange, is
merely temperamental manifestation of the
same conclusion.
The renewed activity comes, the observers say, be-
the country is ready for it. Conditions right,
and there is nothing political otherwise likely to
interfere.
The November bulletin of OF the countrys
leading banks accepting this favorable opinion, pays
its respects to three obstacles which loom large the
minds of pessimists.
The first of these is the fear of greatly increased
competition from abroad, Europe econom;
cally. The bank discounts this fear the ground
that foreign nations increase their outputs of
factured goods they also become better for
raw materials and many OF our manufactured goods
also better customers for their products
The second obstacle feared, that of high wages, is
considered largely offset by the high purchasing
high wages.
The third obstacle, belief that American indus
tries over-developed and over-eXpanded is pro-
nounced true only in exceptional Industry in
general seems sure to be fully occupied.

Delaware
 The contest for United States senator between General Coleman du Pont, re- publican, and James Nj. Tunnell, demo- crat, engaged a major amount of inter est in the political campaign in Della ware. Republicans declared that diff. ferences within the party would not endanger the republican presidential ticket in Delaware, while the demo crats, inspired by the republican diff cuties, expressed themselves as hopeful of complete success for national and state tickets.
 Because of differences among three factions favoring the La Toilette and Wheeler candidates, the independen, movement did not show great activity in the campaign.
 West Virginia
 West virginias special interest ill the outcome of the presidential cleo tion, because for the first time in the history of the state native sn- IS a presidential candidate, has given an unusual turn to the pre-elef Ion cam paign this year. ,.,<
 Democratic campaign managers have hailed the candidacy of John w. Davis, and the state prile which they believe will induce mshy normally republican voters to cast their ballots for him, as a means of turning into the democratic column the majority which four years ago went to the republicans and es- kn ronuhliNan Rd. milistration in the state.
 Presidential questions have figured in the race for a seat in the United States senate between Guy D. Golf, republican, and William E. Chiffon, democrat.
 Robert NJ. La Toilette and Burton K. Wheeler are twice named on the bal lots, as Farmer-Labor and Socialist party candidates, and in both parties the same list of presidential electors is given.
 Howard M. Gore, republican, and Judge Jake Fisher, democrat, are mak' ing the race for the governorship. In the states six congressional districts four\ present democratic representatives seek reelection, while in two of the districts republicans whom they sue ceeded two years ago seek a return to their former places.
 Maryland
 Political lines in Maryland settled sufficiently early this fall to convince both the democratic and republican leaders that nothing could be taken for granted in the presidential fight in this normally democratic state, and that the chances would be in favor of the party that did the harder and more effective work. The democrats concededly have had the better organization, probably the best they have had in 20 years With hard work they believe they will carry the state for Davis over Coolidge with La Toilette rather far in the rear
 Maryland expects the return of the present congressional delegation, three republicans and three democrats.

WORD IS WAITED ON HUGE MERGER
 OF STEELPLANTS
District Finances Expect ed To Establish New
 Production Records

According to past announcements the merger of the Sheffield and the iAlabam company will become effective November 1. It is expected in local ln- dustrial circles that an announcement will be made shortly as to the details of the plans. So far only the barest information has been given the public. It is known that the Alabama company is to be taken over and few details es to the retention by the company, of its present stock. There has been no statement as to whom the third party to the trade is, it being rumored that the Gulf States company will take the Gadsden furnaces and perhaps some Of the mineral in that section.
 President J. w. Mcqueen of the Sloss company has made only one state ment respecting tine trade, that formal announcement would be made Novem- Der 1. This is interpreted to mean that the details will be arranged in the meantime and that the formalities will require only a short time.
 The merger of the Sloss with the Alabama company will place the new company in a commanding industrial position. The company will have plenty of ore, coal and operating plants, in cluding the latest coke ovens in the cis- trict.

Higher Steel Seen

Reports from Chicago and Pittsburg are to the effect that steel prices are to be advanced effective November l. It is stated that the makers have finally figured out the effect of the Pittsburg plus elimination on business and are in a position to determine their standing with greater accuracy than since the federal trade commission order. It is understood that the prices will affect every line. It is stated that the steel market is at rock bottom and there is nothing life to do except increase prices. This step, following the placement of the large railroad orders suggest that the market is in better shape than in some time.

 When bake apples I introduce a pleasant change by using rhubarb with them, especially if there is doubt about the apples being tart enough to COOK well. Remove the core without cutting clear through the apple; fill the cavity with diced rhubarb and honey and sugar.
