RESERVE BOARD HELPS
CREDIT STATUS STUDY

A description Of the Federal Reserve
Boards new financial statistics appears
in a recent Harper publication, entitled
Money Rates and Money Markets in
the United States" where the author,
Winfield w. Refer, makes extensive
use of these statistics in analyzing the
course of credit conditions since the
entry of the United States into the
World War. In this analysis, which
covers conditions in the interior as well
as In New York. Mr.. Reifler shows that
money rates are frequently slow in re-
fiecting general economic conditions and
do not always indicate the current de-
mand for credit.
At the same time, however, he DEM
onstrates that money rates can always
be completely explained by use OF these
new statistics, and that these same fig-
ures present an exact basis Tor an
analysis of those. fundamental credit
conditions to which money rates In
the market must ultimately conform.

CORN PRICES SOAR
ON DAMAGE TO CROP
Trade Authorities Believe All
Chance of Bumper Yield
Has Disappeared.
BY JOHN p. BOUGHAN,
Associated Press Market Editor.

CHICAGO, July 26.-Irreparable
damage to the 1880 corn crop has
reached the point where, according to
trade authorities bumper yield is out
of the question now. No amount of
moisture from this time forward, it is
asserted, can undo havoc Of such kind
already wrought by days of widespread
scorching temperatures and persistent
lack of rain. Estimates current suggest
100000, 000-bushel curtailment of pro-
duction, compared with the latest Gov
eminent forecast, and indicate that the
United States corn harvest this season
will be the smallest with few exceptions
in the last 20 years.
Facing the prospect outlined, the corn
market showed 314-734c a bushel adj
vance this morning, over values that
were ruling a week ago, in contrast,
wheat was 1asc down to &c up, with
oats at 4-1Hc gain, and provisions
unchanged to a setback of Csc.
Adding to the difficulties of the corn
market situation is the fact that the
stock of corn in Chicago totals less than
100000 bushels, and that the United
States corn visible supply is only about
one-quarter of last years volume.

SAN FRANCISCO, July 26.-Scjence
is lending hand to the grape industry
in diSposing of the SURPRISES by devel-
opment of grape by-products.
Laboratory experiments, financed by
co-operatives and various branches of
the industry, have been begun to find
new ways OF making the grape, or any
part OF 1T, more useful.
This concerted scientific effort is
called Fruit Industries, Inc, and its
purpose is TO aid in disposition of crop
SURPRISES that are inevitable when Ma
ture smiles too benignly on CALIFORNIA;
grape belt.
Thus far experiments have developed
a meat sauce, "a per cent of which is
grape; a land fertilizer. a cigarette
wrapper and cream of tartar, which has
been imported in quantities from Eu-
rope, although tons of 1t yearly have
been thrown away in grape residue.
Perhaps the outstanding achievement
of the San Francisco laboratory, under
direction Of DR.. John r. Eoff, is pro-
duction of concentrate almost as clear
as water, yet which contains palatable
fiavors of the fruit In various blends.
Many other products cost more to
make than their market value warrants.
The commercial significance, how
ever, Is seen in the concentrate, which
may mean large saving in containers
and freight rates. It's volume is cut to
one-fOurth OF the natural juice, but ad-
dition OF water gives back the natural
flavor.
Benefits to growers also are seen in
the concentrate, which makes possible
storage of the juice content of a crop
so 1t may be fed to Eastern and central
markets as needed, thus preventing
dumping" which frequently Is ruinous
TO prices.

COMMODITY PRICES
GAIN DURING WEEK
First Upturn in Long While
Follows Better AgricuI-
tural Markets.
BY III. n. McGILL,
Editor, McGill Commodity Service.


~ the Associated Press.
AUBURNDALE. Mass, July o.
The average level of all commodities
during the past week increased frac-
tionally, which represents the first up
turn in many weeks. The slightly
higher level was due practically en-
tirely to the .upturn in agricultural
prices, which was a natural develop
Ynent following the critical slump Of
recent weeks. During the week just
closed, out of Is individual indices,
eight declined, three remained un-
changed and four advanced.
One of the chief reasons for declln-
ing commodity prices in recent months
IS found in a check-up Of raw material
inventories. Efforts to cut down pro-
duction have been only partially sue
cessful as the contraction in demand
has oeen one of the sharpest ever re-
corded. Compared with a year ago,
stocks of copper are $40 per cent larger
The world visible supply of cotton is
UP 80 per cent cotton goods 10 per
cent. gasoline 80 per cent, rubber l8l
per cent, rosin SO per cent, tin 79 per
cent. Leather. silk and bituminous
coal show a decrease in stocks from
year ago.
All Commodity Prices.
During the past week all commodity
prices recorded definite stability. In
view of the fact that more than
score of basic commodities are selling
close to pre-war levels, it is quite APP
parent that a price decline of the
rapidity OF recent months could not
continue. Price weakness still features
important groups, such as fuels, nom
ferrous metals, textiles and industrial
products.
Industrial Commodity.
Prices of industrial commodities were
lower during the past week, represent
ing a new low in the downward move
that has been going on for nearly
wear. Production schedules of raw
materials have declined further.
Agricultural Prices.
Agricultural prices advanced, not due
20 any change IN new crop supplies,
which appear burdenSome, but nat
ural movement following the critical
price reimbursement of recent weeks.
World supplies Of foods and feeds APP
pear excessive.
Non-FerrOus Metals.
Non-ferrous metals were lower, with
copper breaking to the l1-cent Level.
Due to the heavy supplies available in
such products as lead, tin, zinc and
antimony, there is little action in pur-
chasing ahead.
Textile Prices.
Textile prices declined more sharply
than any other group, led by cotton,
which broke under the 13-cent level.
Crop prospects are good. Total stocks
Of ali textiles remain sharply above
average.

CANAL WILL BRING
WATER LINES EAST
Three Shipping Developments
Are Due Soon-MidWeSt
to Benefit.
BY the Associated Press.


OSWEGO, N. y, July 26.-Three
shipping developments that promise to
affect Northern United States from the
Dakotas to the 'tlantic seaboard, and
much of Lower Canada, are in the
making.
This Summer is expected to see the
opening of the $115,000,00 Weliand
ship canal, connecting Lake Erie and
Lake Ontario. This will unlock Lake
Ontario, for the first time, to large
ships plying the other Great Lakes.
Opening of the Lower Hudson River
to ocean vessels, as far north as Albany,
is slated for 1881. The third project
is the Federal Governments $3,500,000
program for opening the Lake Ontario
harbor of Oswego to Great Lakes ship
ping for the first time.
The Welland Canal will enable ships
now making Buffalo their Eastern
terminus to extend their lanes into Lake
Ontario. Their possible terminus then
will be Oswego I'll miles nearer tide
water
With the Welland and Hudson River
projects completed, the shortest distance
by canal between big lake steamers and
ocean-going vessels will be the 100 miles
between Oswego and Albany, whereas
now it is 500 miles between Buffalo and
New York
Oswego thus hopes to revive the days
when the city was the Venice of Lake
Ontario"
Saving to Western shippers is seen
in the opening of Lake Ontario to Great
Lakes ships. If faster connections be-
tween Oswego and tidewater than the
Oswego-Albany Canal are desired, it is
pointed out that three railroads provide
facilities from Oswego to New York
Engineers foresee a marked increase
in barge canal commerce, especially in
grain, as result of the new waterways
Oswego, dating its port back to 1923,
claims it was the first on the Great
Lakes.
