NEW YORK, August 14.-Under only
a fair demand, high-grade bonds were
higher today and the rest of the list
was dull and unchanged. with the ex-
ception Of few strong spots in the
foreign department.
There was $4,000 900 of new issues,
but since it consisted entirely of mu-
nicipals it placed no strain on the bond
market, as The demand for good munic-
ipals still exceeds the supply. This
was evidenced by the high price Detroit
received for SIS, 000, 900 tax anticipation
notes. They were offered on 2.70 per
cent yield basis. Some State of West
Virginia SerialO bonds were offered on
a ATS to per cent basis, the low yield
on the short-term maturities accentuat-
ing the continued popularity of such
financing just now.
Money Rates Easier.
Money rates, after temporary tight
ening on Wednesday, we're back at the
low levels of the week end, with 90-day
loans quoted at ga to az per cent.
The strength of legal railroad mort
cages and some of the prime public
utility bonds and industrial credits was
still the feature of listed bonds. Balti-

Canadian National SIS rose a similar
amount. Other gains were made by

canoe. All three issues are selling

LINCOLN, Nebr., August 14.-For the
first time in history the farmers of Ne
braska, second wheat State in the
Union, can get money on their grain
without moving it from the bins.
Under a new State law permitting
farm storage in conjunction with the
Federal Farm Loan Board, certificates
will be issued by State supervisors and
the certificates will be held as collateral
by Federal farm loan banks. Thus i'm
mediate credit to the producer is
insured.
Advantage in Law.
Sam r. McKelvie, grain member Of
the Farm Board and former Nebraska
Governor, says the law will be of great
advantage to farmers, in that it gives
them the advantage of farm storage
the cheapest available, and best for
keeping burdensome supplies out of
market channels and the terminals.
In addition, the law permits farmers

Several units of that depart
