At this time the statisticians Of
the automobile companies are
busy making their predictions as
to the number Of cars to be built
next season. They arrive at their
results without prejudice, and I
find each of them is counting on
a considerable increase in the
number of cars to be sold.
I ascribe two reasons for this
first, the large number of auto
mobiles that are really worn out
and second, the compelling desire
to purchase that will occur when
the new models are seen.
In my connection with the au-

WORLD WHEAT CROP
AHEAD OF YEAR AGO
Production, Including Russia,
Now Estimated at 4,561,-
$4,000 Bushels.
BY FRANK L. WELLER


World wheat production, including
Russia, is estimated at 1851 ,653, 900
bushels, compared with 4,463, 787, 900
last season.
An oft1clal preliminary figure places
the Soviet crop at 1,0l9, 100000 bushels,
an increase Of 81 per cent over the
1882 yield. 1t Is a record, exceeding
by 100000 bushels the bumper crop
Of 1880, but the Federal Division of
Foreign Crops and Markets here says
that if past experience is repeated it
likely will be scaled down somewhat
when revised estimates are issued.
Practically no business was trans
acted on the Shanghai wheat and flour
market during the last week. The
trade expects the government to bring
in large supplies of United States loan
flour. Chinese flour prices remain so
low there are no quotations on foreign
wheat.
Reich Cartel Formed.
A cartel has been formed for all
German mills processing either wheat
or rye. which does everything N. R. A.
codes do in this country and, in addi-
ton, requires accumulation and reten-
ton of two months stock of each grain
by all mills throughout the year. 1t Is
calculated to provide something of a
substitute for futures trading, which
was abolished llast October
Corn production in % countries, ex-
cluding Russia. totals 3,233,225, 900
bushels. a decrease of 1875 per cent
from the 1882 yield.

Brazilian State of Rio Grande de Sui,
which exported l7,8O6,0O0 pounds of

CaSein production for 1884 in Ar
gentina is not expected to exceed the
average output of about 100000
pounds. Exports are not expected to
exceed that figure, since there was no
carry-over from 1888 when 53.0OO,O00
pounds were expo,ted, principally be-
cause of large stocks from the pre-
vious year.

MAINE SEEKS Fl WAYS
TO STRENGTHEN BANKS

Twenty-one bills have been intro-
duced into Maine House of Representa-
t1ves for the revision and strengthen
ing OF the banking laws of that State,
These bills seek to:
Prohibit any organization from own
ing more than 10 per cent of the capital
stock of any bank
Prohibit the loaning Of money to
executive officers by their own bank and
providing that if loans are made from
other banks a written report shall be
made to the chairman of the board of
directors.
Increase the minimum amount of
capital stock of new banks.
Prohibit directors, officers or en-
ployes from holding positions In a con-
Germ making loans secured by stock or
bond collateral, excepting savings
banks and loan building associations.
Prohibit bank from dealing In Sc
curities for its own account or under
writing security issues.
Eliminate the double liability of
stockholders in new banks and provide
for cessation of liability in banks now
in operation whenever surplus becomes
equal to the aggregate par value of the
capital.
