Farmers Optimistic Following Rainfall Farmers of North Dakota are more optimistic now than they were & week ago regarding crops. This is the dominant note con- tained in reports to the Bank of North Dakota made by its field agents in all sections of the state. _ Heavy general rains which bene- fited all field crops and improved dy | pastures are given as the reason, In some sections the farmers had been fearful that crops would wither for lack of moisture, but this worry has n alla; and prospects throughout the state as a whole are declared to be good. Winter rye prospects are e- what disappointing, the reports said, but added that the crop is expected to stool some because of the rains.

Kansas official sum- mary confirming serious damage to crops in that state. The summary said dry weather is needed now until after harvest. Meanwhile, advices were at hand that cutting of wheat in central Kangas had begun and that there was also some cutting in Missouri. For the first time in a nvmber of weeks, July delivery,of corn sold to- day at below $1.00 a hushel. Sim- ultaneously, September and Decem- ber deliveries fell to the lowest prices yet this season. Auspicious weather for the new corn crop led to general selling that included much brought about by standing ozders to stop losses on the part of specu- lative holders.

BEARS RULING STOCK MARKET United States Steel Common Goes to New Low Record in Trading New York, June 19.—(?)—The downward readjustment ‘of stock prices was stimulated today by the arking up of the call money rate from 5 1-2 to 6 per cent. Prices sagged 1 to 6 points in the early trading, rallied around mid-day when a bullish demonstration was started in the copper shares, and then turned heavy again in the afternoon. Trading was on a sub- stantially large scale than yester- day, which was the smallest full session since last March. The increase in call money re- flects the return of federal income tax checks to the banks for pay- ment, and preparations for the mid- year settlements. Further heavy withdrawals of gold for shipment to France, which is due to annoynce its stabilization program on Satur- day, are expected this week. In view of the drastic liquidation of stocks in the last fortnight, and the decrease in new security offerings, a substantial seduction in brokers’ loans is anticipated Thursday.

Most of the French makes are un- known outside the locality where they are manufactured. It’s the wonderful Teaberry flavor that makes Teaberry Gum different and so much better.
