Financial and Business
Conditions

Developments of the last few weeks
tend to confirm the general view that
the current recession in business ac-
tivity is largely due to the seasonal
influences that usually cause mod
crate curtailment at this time of year,
according to the current issue of the
Guaranty Survey, published by the
Guaranty Trust Company of New
York. Since 1923 the decline in gen.
eral industrial operations and trade
volumes between spring and summer
has been so regular and so pro-
nounced that many observers have
hesitated to regard it as a purely
seasOnable swing. The suggestion
has even been advanced. the Survey
continues, that increased industrial
plant capacities, larger credit re-
sources, better transportation facili-
ties and a modified distribution Of in
come have combined to accelerate the
response of business activity to
changing conditions, so that the long
and violent fluctuations that formerly
constituted the so-called business cy-
Gle have, for the time being at least,
been transformed into a series Of

semi-seasonal. semi-cylical adjust
ments.
Whether this view be accepted or
not, it must be admitted that there
are few factors in the present stu
alton on which to base pessimistic
views as to the near-term future of
business. Most of the conditions
that might be mentioned as possible
u~nfavorable influences, such as spec
ulative activity in the security mar
kets, large borrowings on security
collateral, low earning power in coal,
petroleum, copper and other indus
tries, declining commodity prices,
narrow profit margins in many
branches of industry and trade and
the unsettled state of international
finance are not new developments,
and in some cases show definite i'm
provement during the recent past.
On the other hand, it may be pointed
out that domestic financial conditions
remain strong, that operations in
numerous industries are unusually
well sustained and that the active
movement Of commodities in general
into consumers hands is distinctly
encouraging.

a cash market available every day in

p~erpetually sustained demand?
The value of fertilizer derived from
keeping a few animals on the farm,
when considered in dollars, Overshad-
ows the profits to be made from the
handling Of the animals themselves.
People in the middle west who have
proved the wisdom Of this practice
have found that in purchasing young
beeves and finish feeding them, or
handling hogs or sheep, tnat the fer
tilizer retained for the rehabilitating
Of the soil exceeded in value the orig
inal cost of the animals.
1t has been proved conclusively
that in Investigation lies success
and safety for the producer. In an
"off" year, or when a slump has
been experienced on the production
or marketing of some particular COM
modify, the producer who has shown
the wisdom Of carrying a lew head
of livestock on his place isn't so seri-
Ously affected as the producer who
relies entirely upon n crop for his
revenue.
Livestock markets report increas-
ing gains in receipts arriving from
small producers, many times coming
in the form of community shipments
where several producers pool their
holdings in order to make up a car
load. 1t would seem reasonable to
predict that it is only a question of
time until the bulk of livestock pro
duction will be in the hands of small
producers brought about largely
through the continued cutting up OF
large land areas.

Soil producing food stuff and other

 President Faunce declared tha. education of American youth is a failure in so far as it's aims at repression of faults rather than creation of virtues.
