cut prices in the world markets in
order to maintain production. This
is one of the most burning questions
of the day and a question on which
there Is a natural and honest diff
ference of opinion between indi-
viduals.
Balance Is Favorable.
To summarize the prospects of
agriculture for 1885, then, we can
expect moderate improvement in
prices and total farm income. Sup
plies, barring another calamitous
drought which hardly seems likely,
will be nearer to the normal figures,
but short of the peak.
In the case of cotton, there will
be a large oversupply, which will
create the greatest problem of the
year. Domestic demand for agricul-
tural products will improve through
out the first half of the year; beyond
that it is impossible to predict with
certainty. Foreign demand will be
smaller. The American farmer in
1885 will approach nearer to his
proper place in the economic pic
ture. But the troubles Of the Ameri-
can farmer are not over.

10 Per Cent Jump
In Activity Likely
AT Textile Mills

There should be at least a 10 per
cent increase in textile mill activity
in 1885 over 1884, declares Douglas G.
Woolf. editor. Textile World, New York.
This is a conservative estimate. II
1t proves reasonably correct, 1t will
mean that 1885 will be about nor
mall year, based on the 1s23-25
average.
Textile mill activity in 1894 was
some Is to 18 per cent below that OF
1888; final statistics are not yet avail
able. 1888, 1t must be remembered,
was an unusual year, due to the first
effects Of the codes and the process
ing taxes.
AT the beginning of 1884, I pre-
dicted a decrease of 10 per cent from
1888; the difference between my esti-
mate and the actual performance was
due to the effect of the strike and to
a certain amount of unanticipated
buyer
Likewise, profits in 1884 were below
those of 1888. This is explained by
the fact that inventory profits played
q large part in 1888. 1885, in my opin-
ion, should be fair profit year"

VITAL ROLE HELD
FOR ADVERTISING
Guenther Stresses Impor-
tance of Increased Budgets
to Spur Business.

Advertising will do its part in 1885
10 improve sales and earnings of indi-
vidual industries, declares Rudolph
Guenther, Albert Frank Guenther
Law, Inc. General advertising, as
it concerns the principal divisions Of
merchandising, has shown a respon-
siveness to increased purchasing power
during 1884 which is altogether en-
couraging.
IAN indication of the confidence
that Is developing Is the extent to
which many corporations have in
creased their advertising budgets
within the last year for advertising
in 1885.
Probably no line Of business has
been more severely affected during the
past four years than the steamship
companies, and yet they provide an
outstanding example of energetic ac-
tivity to obtain business in spite of
the handicaps arising from decreased
trade between nations.
Railroads will probably do more ad-
vertising in 1885 than for q number
of years. The public must be edu-
Gated up to the fact that high-speed
streamline and air. r-conditioned trains
offer many advantages and that the
former are safe.
After what has been said and
printed about bankers in the last
few years one must admire their
patience and fidelity to the job which
is theirs both by tradition and neces-
sity. They must be expected to do
more educational or institutional ad-
vertising in 1885 than in 1894 to de-
velop good will or counteract radical
legislative efforts.
Further modification Of the secur-
tiles act Is desired in respect Of ad-
vertising. There Is no reason why
newspapers and magazines should be
deprived of advertising due to restric-
tions imposed by the securities act
which today result in the public hav-
ing less information about securities
than it had before the act became
law"
Evening star., 1934-12-31

the city are prepared to cooperate
in every possible manner in serving
the individuals, firms, organizations
and corporations. Credit is available
to meet the demands for sound financ-
ing.
IF the general improvement no
ticeable in the last several months
continues, I am confident that when
the year 1885 ends, and we review
its results that further Improvements
will have been made, but to accom-
plish this requires the usual co-opera-
ton in all lines of endeavor."
Faith in Banks Restored.
Harry G. Meem, president OF the
Washington Loan g. Trust Co., ex-
pressed satisfaction with the progress
that had been made during the year
and confidence that the cooperation
of industry and finance with the
Government promised continued i'm
provement in the future.
"One definite achievement" he said,
''is the restoration of faith in the
banks as the depository of the peo-
Piles money, evidenced by the great
increase in the deposits of the banks
here and all over the country" Mr..
Meem said this could be ascribed to
the Federal deposit insurance plan,
which, with its present $1,000 maxi
mum, serves all practical purposes.
"The prime advantage of this in
crease in deposits" Mr.. Meem added.
"is that the banks are now in good
position to extend credit to all quail
fed applicants and to aid business in
its efforts toward recovery"
Ord Preston, president Of the
Union Trust Co., in commenting on
the outlook, said:
Probably there is no area in the
country at this time as fortunate as
the District of Columbia. Conditions
in and about Washington are far
better than a year ago due to the
many and increased activities Of the
various Government agencies. The
influx of new people has produced a
healthy real estate situation and an
increased volume of retail trade.
Unfortunately general business re-
covery over the United States has
been slow and disappointing. This is
not difficult to understand when it is
realized the Federal Government is
now borrowing more than during the
World War, is spending more and that

NEW YORK CITY, December 81
Sales Of household remedies and
toiletries in 1885 will be the best since
1929, 1t was predicted today by Robert
z. Lee, secretary of the Vadsco Sales
Corp, in discussing the outlook for
business in the coming year. The
Vadsco Sales Corp. through two Of its
subsidiaries, the American Druggists
Syndicate, Inc, and v. Vivaudou, Inc,
is large factor in both industries.
Preliminary reports indicate. Mr..
Lee said, that business in 1884 was
equal to that of 1881, and there is
every reason for believing that it will
be even better in the coming year.

INSURANCE HEAD
FEELS CONFIDENT
Stresses Large Gain in New
Business and Fewer Loan
Applications.

"The encouraging improvement
which has taken place in the general
business situation during 1884 leads
me to look forward to 1885 with con-
fidence," Thomas A. Buckner, presi-
dent Of the New York Life Insurance
Co., declared in reviewing life insur-
ance development of the last year.
During 1894 substantial gains were
made in new insurance written.
Lapses and surrenders continued to
decrease, and applications for policy
loans declined in number and volume.
At the same time there was an in
crease in the repayment OF policy
loans previously made.
Cash income was high, rejecting
in part the heavy demand for an
nuities. No doubt the chief reason
for this was the fact that people
recognized that well-managed life In

NEW YORK, December 31.-The

Prospects for 1885 in the American

There is evidence of tendency to
