TRADING IS SLOW IN MEAT MARKET Hot Weather and Cheap Produce Factors in Draggy Sales Now. A draggy condition of the meat market was reported this morning. There is always a fairly good demand for choicest meats, dealers report, and prices usually continue steady. Cheaper quality meats are not so niuch in demand, however, low prices failing to attract buyers. Hot 'weather and cheap vegetables is the combination that is said to be yesponsible for light meat sales. Re- cent rains proved a boon to farmers in the matter of increasing supplies of fruits and vegetables, according to Veports, and consumers are taking ad vantage of cheaper prices. of foodstuffs today were ; the same as at the close of Yesterday's market.

HEFFERNAN NEW YORK, July 20.—Those who had gbeen predicting a broadening out of activity in the general body of stocks and ‘have been predicting a “general bull market” saw nothing in the developments on the Curb Ex- change today to justify their con- tention. In the absence of any fresh developments in the outside trade situation prices merely backed and lighten accounts. The important price changes took place on the side of decline, although selling was not heavy enough to cause alarm. Liquidation kept on in_the oil group. Standard of New York and Indiana offered half point below the vesterday's final, most of the time.

S. Tariff Is Planned—Huge Crop to Be Disposed Of. BY J. C. ROYLE. 1 Dispateh to The Sta h YORK, July tailment of raw sugar production in Cuba under governmental regula tion has not been entirely effective or satisfactory to Cuban growers. This became evident today as the sugar grinding season in the Island drew to its close. 1t is certain that Cuban production will exceed 4,900,000 long tons. In ad- dition to the amount of sugar which Cuba must carry over into the next | season, there will be an aggregate carryover of standing cane estimated at five million tons cane weight. ‘The | flelds of the island give indications, | in addition, of another large crop in 20.~The cur- With these facts in view, the Cuban | growers will not sit idle.

Price Held Stable. Eulopean countries which produce | beet sugar have either advanced their | import_duties or have granted bonus- es or bounties to domestic producers to protect them against the low-cost Cuban producers. This has cut the market for Cuban sugar and aided to | maintain the price at stable levels, just the beet ar production |and the cane sugar originated in this | country, Porto Rico and Hawaii have | done in the United sStates It is now rumored that the Cubanj producers will consign 500,000 tons to eastern countries.

It is possible that a request to this effect may be made officially. So far as the American producers are concerned, in most instances, a demand for such assurances has met with immediate refusal. It was for the very purpose, they say, of en- couraging domestic consumption that the tariff was placed on sugar. If they restrict their optput and drop back, the effect of the tariff is as thoroughly nullified as though it were remaved. as ASHINGTON, D.

It has a natural affinity for cotton. * There are no chemicals in Latex to destroy the natural oils in the cotton or to weaken the cord fibre. Each ipdividual cord in a United States Tire is run through a tank of Latex by means of the machine shown in the center illus- tration. i The cords are then laid side by side and drawn up over heated rollers which evap- oprate the water in the Latex, producing a rubberized fabric which is made of cotton cords and pure rubber. Each cord is ithpregnated and surrounded by rubber, and attached to its neighboring cord with an elastic rubber web. hundrads 10 Arz Q—1Is treating cords with Latex entirely new in tire building? A—Yes. Until this process was developed by the United States Rubber Company, the use of Latex before it had been coagulated into crude rubber had never been used in tire building. Q—Is the process patented? A—Yes. The process is patented and owned by the United States Rubber Company. Q—What are its advantages? A—The tire engineer’s ideal is a {ire thin and flexible as a soap bubble and strong as steel. The more you can add to a tire’s strength without increasing its weight the better. . Latex-treated Web Cord provides the - ‘strength and flexibility without adding un- necessary weight. A bulky tire is not necessarily a strong tire. No car owner wants to carry around a lot of useless weight. Q—1s it possible to make the cord struc ture of a tire too heavy? : A—Yes. Just as a cable made of many strands of fine and highly tempered wire can be stronger than a heavier iron bar, so the cord structure of a tire can be made strong, yet light and flexible through this process. Q—How does treating cords in Latex give additional strength? A—Latex is virgin rubber just as it comes UNITED STATES - ROYAL CORD BALLOON BUTTER IS STEADY. | CHICAGO, July 20 (®. steady—Receipts 18,429 tubs: ery extras, 39%;: standards, tra firsts 38,a38 firs| seconds, 33a34Y; L S55E52293: Butter | cream 391, 36ad T AEE DIVIDENDS.
