The Conditions in Reserve | District on Rapid Mend KANSAS CITY, Nov. 28. (By the Associated Press)—The financial situation in the Tenth Federal Re- serve district has been “greatly eased” and business in every line has been stimulated as a result of the more prosperous condition of the agricultural population in the dis- trict, says the November review on business conditions, issued here to- night by the Federal Reserve bank of Mansas City. Heavy marketing of products and 4 sustained price movement, coming during the late summer and autumn, were given as the causes for the better conditions, in agriculture. “The larger volume of business, measured in dollars,” states the re- view," is reflected by the reports of clearing houses and debits to in- dividual accounts, or payments by cheeks through banks. The total re- ported for 28 cities was $1,477,917,000 for a period of five weeks running through October and ending Novem- ber 5, an increase of 3.7 per cent over the previous five weeks ending October 1, and an increase of 3.1 per cent over the corresponding New Gusher Oil Field Is Opened at Wortham, Tex. daily, advices received is from the Woodbine which the Powell and thelr production. five weeks ending November 7, 1923. “A further indication of the trend of gereral business and banking is co be observed in the clearing opera- ons of the Federal Reserve bank of Kansas City and its branches at Omaha, Denver and Oklahoma City. During October a total of 5,991,648 checks and cash items drawn 3,847 member and non-member banks and representing $1,023,150,964 was handled at the main bank and its three branches. This was the larg- est number of items handled in a single month on records dating as far back as the beginning. of 1919. The amount exceeded that for every previous month since October 15 to November 15, 1920 when it was $1,- 081,086,970. “Retail trade during October was affected rather-adversely by the un- seasonably warm weather. The volume did not come up to that for September, and it also fell consider- ably short of that for October of last year. Wholesale trade, how- ever, made a substantial gain in all lines reported, both as compared with the previous month and the corresponding month a year ago.’ ¥FRT WORTH, Tex., Nov. 28.—The Boyd Oil company number 1 Roy Simmons, a wild cat, one quarter of @ mile south of the town of Worth- am, adjoining the townsite, in Free- stone county, went “over the top” yesterday when bailing began after the bit was pulled out and gauged for one hour at the rate of 12,000 Fire Scare Short GHEST DRIVE tists ome or FAGESEMILURE, se ro The home of Judge Robert R.
