FARMPRICE GAINS . * WELL MAINTAINED Corn and Hogs Score Larg- est Advances in General Upswing. " Yhe upward trend of prices in May « included most of the leading farm podufll by the middle of the month, says the United States Department of " Agriculture, Bureau of Agricultural .!‘Beconomics, market news service. Comn and hogs gained sharply and other ~'grains, live stock and animal products responded more or less. Corn has dou- rbled in value since the low point. Cot- ton spproached 9 cents in some spot markets. Butter and cheese reached new top prices. Cattle, calves, meats, hides, sheep and wool shared the ad- “‘vance. Eggs and poultry met compara- J tively quiet markets without much "change in prices, Trend of fruits and vegetables continued mixed, but there were many price gains. despite the gen- “erally liberal supplies at this season. P Butter Advances Sharply. ., ‘T'he butter markets gathered strength near the middle of May and prices ad- vanced sharply. A little more confi- .dence was expressed in several quar- ‘ters, buyers were more willing to antici- | .pate future needs and the volume of u'lde widened somewhat. Much of the improvement can be attributed to the v[enenl optimism that has permeated the security and general commodity ..markets. Consuming demand has been marrowed to & certain degree by the higher retail cost. In the opinion of = many operators the make of butter is | | from two to three weeks later than |§ mormal. Cattle are still being barn fed "'tn many places. Cheese markets continued firm and ices in distributing centers moved one- | |i alf to 1 cent higher in line with in- “ereutn[ costs in producing sections In New York cured Single Daisies sold | ~for 17 to 18 cents, while fancy New ““York State flats brought up to 21 cents. < Approximately 33,000 pounds of New “Zealand cured 1932 Cheddars arrived @t New York. Egg Markets Irregular. Dollar Makers BY GEORGE T. EAGER. A department store that operated & staff of 32 salesmen selling appliances direct to the home owner sppointed an experienced speclalty sales man- ager with author-| greal ity to make all necessary changes in lelun: methodl Salesmen had been reporting for work at 9 oclnck end the sales man- sger's first obser- was that : between 9 and 10 was prac- tically wasted. The salesmen felt it was useless to &y and see people in their homes before 10 o'clock. A new plan was effect. each man reported promptly at 8:45 with the names of 25 prospects and gave & copy of his list to the sales manager. Promptly at 9 o'clock a large gong was rung as a signal to start to work on a carefully rehearsed telephone canvass for interviews. About one out of every five calls resulted in definite appoint- ments to be called on during the day, to{]:thar with additional follow-up cal M lunch time and at 4:30 salesmen ported back to the office and lddl!lonll time that was formerly wasted to make appointments with people they had not been able to reach in the morning. It is estimated that from one to two hours of time is being reclaimed and used for productive sales work. (Copyright, PERPETUAL BUILDING ASSOCIATION PAYS 1933.)

NEW YORK, May 17.—Stocks of sil- ver on hand in New York, trade inter- ests estimate, total between 75000000 and 100,000,000 ounces, & record al Accumulation of the metal is due ". is said, to the fact the domestic spec- ulation has lifted the dollar price well :bove the world price. Moreover, the consuming demand for silver trm the Orient, particularly India and China, has not been a market factor here. It is reported that China, instead of buying, has been selling in this mar- ket because of the premium.
