increase than that of the world at
large. In 1887, for instance, our ex-
ports and imports were 81 per cent
higher than in 1886, while total world
trade was up only Is per cent. This
year there should be modest gains in
overseas commerce, but the rate OF
increase will slow up. / expect that
Scandinavia, South America, Great
Britain and her Dominions will again
be our best markets.
international relations will not i'm
prove noticeably in 1888. think that
gangster diplomacy will continue in
vogue for another year at least. But /
am convinced from my trip abroad
this Fall that 1888 will see no gen.
eral war. 1 am not very hopeful over
the long-term future, however. A bit
ter conflict seems inevitable unless a
new Christmas spirit invades the
hearts of men all over the world.
Great Bargains Today
The above is a good outline of what
I feel readers can expect in 1888. We
have come over long hard road since
1888. l am confident that we are not
going back to those depths this year!
America is suffering just now, from
ar attack of business indigestion COM
plicated by severe case of filters.
The ups-and-downs of business seem
to have been growing deeper rather
than shallower during the past ten
years. This is because the country is
swept by succeeding waves of emo
tional distrust and confidence, due to
a weaker spiritual foundation.
Just as in the Fall of 1887 opti-
mism changed overnight INTO black
pessimism, so the current gloom can
be transformed into confidence again
by the stroke of a pen. For that rea-
son, believe that there are now
some wonderful buying opportunities.
Stocks and bonds, homes and furnish.
ings, food and clothing, are, or soon
will be, on the bargain counter. Hence.
my closing message today is: WOrb
for a more honest and less selfish
America; but do not let present tim
idity scare you away from tOday's
great opportunities

Large Attendance
Is Predicted For
Farm Gathering
More Than One Thousand Farm
People To Attend Farm Bureau
Meets In Baltimore

More than a thousand Maryland
farm folks are expected in Baltimore
next week for the twenty-second
annual sessions of the Maryland Farm
Bureau, Maryland Agriculture Society
and affiliated organizations, accord
ing to c. E. Wise, Jr., Secretary of
the Maryland Farm Bureau. The
series of meetings opens with the
annual meeting of the Maryland
Horticultural Society on Tuesday Jan
uary IL, and lasts through the bust
ness sessions of the Farm Bureau and
Agriculture Society on Friday, JAN
uary IA. Wednesday, January IL, has
been set aside for the meetings of
light affiliated production organiza-
tions of farmers, and Thursday, Jan
uary Is, will be Farm Bureau Day,
according to program announcements.
Featuring this years sessions of
the farm gatherings will be the larg-
est exhibit Of the products of Mary
lands farms held in recent years.
The entire mezannine floor of the Lord
Baltimore Hotel has been set aside
for exhibiting these products. The
contest awards for the best corn, po-
tatoes, eggs, tobacco, and other ma
jor crops will be in charge of the as
sociations of producers of each pro-
duct, with additional prize money
available this year as result of
money appropriated by the State Fair
Board.
Attendance at the meetings this
year is expected to be the largest
ever" Mr.. Wise reports. The Mary
land Farm Bureau has passed the
1900 mark in membership for the
first time in more than 10 years.
Farmers are interested in the current
problems such as National legislation
and the Maryland tax program and
will meet to talk about them. The
program arrangement has beer
hanged so that more farmers can at
tend by picking the day on which
their particular organization holds its
sessions, and exhibit is expected to
attract more visitors than ever be-
fore"
Out of the State speakers will in
clude F. R. Wilcox of the United
States Department of Agriculture,
Murray D. Lincoln of the Ohio Farm
Bureau and J. o. Christianson of
the University of Minnesota, as well
as leading farmers of near by states.

Motors and Rubbers offer less prom
Use because auto assemblies will be
below 1887.
Feature OF Bond Market
The bond market will be influenced
more by business in 1888 than it has
been during late years. Medium
grades have registered terrific drop
this Fall and ! look for price increases
i'll this group to feature the bond
market in 1888. Gilt-edge issues are
down much less than these medium
grades.
This situation offers a good oppor-
tunity to make a few trades to i'm
prove yields and increase profit posi-
bilities. l make this statement for ]
believe that the long-term trend of
bigh-grade bond prices is definitely
downward. Sound medium grade
bonds should be better purchase for
the next few months than senior obi
cations. When money rates start ris-
ing, high-grade bond values are going
to filter away slowly.
Trend Toward World Initiation
One of the major reasons why am
SO confident that higher money rates
are inevitable is the world outlook
None of the major nations and few of
the minor powers are today operating
on balanced budget. Billions of bor-
rowed dollars, yens, marks, and francs
are being spent in mad armament
race. National currencies are destin-
ed to become steadily cheaper in
terms of goods. Furthermore, there
seems to be only remote chance of
averting world conflict: Through re-
ciprocal trade agreements-and a
genuine spiritual revival!
President Roosevelt and Secretary
Hull have done more for world rela-
tons In the last five years than all
the international peace conferences Of
the past two decadesl In spite Of ter
rife pressure from groups at home,
the State Department has pushed
steadily ahead with its trade agree
ments. They have negotiated sixteen
treaties and are now working on the
most important Of all-with Great
Britain. Vast amounts Of data have
been culled over and the treaties have
had as their sound goal "the most
good for the biggest number"
World Trade Outlook
As q result, our share Of foreign
commerce has shown a much sharper

Stocks To Rally

This same rough plan should also
hold for stocks. I expect to see the
markets fly the revival signal before
1888 is too old. 1t would be silly to
predict they will, or will not, break
through their 1887 March peak. 1t
makes little difference whether they
do or do not, for good stocks at cur
rent prices, in my opinion, offer ex-
cellent profit opportunities.
Furthermore, while selection will
again be important, diversifcation
will be the vital point in 1888. Some
groups will, of course, do better than
others. If I had to guess the outstand-
ing industries of 1888 from a market
standpoint, would pick the Metals,
Oils, Building Materials, Aircraft
Makers, Steels. Chemicals, Electrical
Equipment., and Mail Orders. The
Utilities may surprise investors and
the Rails are so low that any good
news could give them a tremendous
percentage increase in value. The
