Sees Better Winter Outlook.
In his monthly review of agricultural
conditions in the Fifth Federal Reserve
district. William M HoXton, agent of
the Reserve Bank of Richmond, re-
ports that crops in Maryland, Virginia,
West Virginia and in North and South
Carolina are in splendid condition,
probably the best for several years.
Prices, however. are still highly I'M
favorable, he says.
Mr. Hoxton does, however, spread
considerable cheer for the coming VIM
ter. He notes that while prices are
very low for all farm products, the
farmers have greatly diversified their
crops. This new policy means a great
deal Of food will be available when cold
weather comes that was not on hand
last Winter
The Reserve Bank Official believes
that this reserve supply will keep con-
ditions better than a year ago all
through fifth district territory.
