MARKET. FINANCIAL AND INDUSTRIAL NEWS OF THE DAY _
Omaha Grain
Omaha, Feb. 1, 1923.
Receipts at Omaha totaled only 87
cars of all kinds of grain, as compared
with a total of 159 cars last year.
Total shipments were 88 cars, against
101 cars last year.
There was a better cash demand for
wheat on the Omaha market today,
samples changing hands 2c higher.
Corn was also in good demand, with
offerings going He to lHc up. Oats
were strong, to 1c higher. Rye
was quoted >jc to Ho up, and barley
’ic higher.
After a lower range of values for
grain, caused by a weak Liverpool
wheat market and reports of rain In
Argentine, prices turned upward and
scored a sharp advance, being Influ
enced by a report from Washington
that rural credit legislation is expected
to pass the senate tomorrow and an
effort will be made to attach a for
< Ign credit measure to the Lenroot
bill, and the opinion was expressed
that It will he successful in passing
the senate, but will probably be held
up Indefinitely in the house.
The rains in Argentine were said
:o have been Insufficient, and this
added strength to corn. Shorts were
eager buyers during most of the ses
sion.
The fact that the most depressing
news of the past few days has failed
to break wheat as much ns expected
has made local traders timid about
short selling.

The Results
. "What Tanlac has done for me is
too wonderful for words to express,”
recently said Mrs. Stella Styx, 2931
Canal St., Chicago, 111.
“Before I took Tanlac I was actual
ly so run down that I was almost in
despair. If I ventured to eat a regu
lar meal I would nearly go wild with
indigestion, and at times I was trou
bled so with headache and dizziness
1 could hardly stand up. Sometimes
T ached from head to foot and my
nerves robbed me of hours of sleep
every night.
“But now I enjoy three hearty
meals a day. work from morning till
night without tiring, and feel so fine
that I just praise Tanlac all the time.
T have gained ten pounds and am as
healthy and active as a person could
wish to be.”
Tanlac Is sold by all good druggists.

Chicago Grain
! Chicago, Feb. 1—A decided change
I in sentiment was witnessed in the
grain markets and while there W'as
a moderate decline early on bearish
news from' abroad, the undertone w.13
strong and the finish was about the
top, with net gains of l-4®7-8c on
wheat, 3-8fi3-4c on corn. l-4@3-8c on
oats and 5-Sc on rye.
There was little enthusiasm nmong
local wheat bears early, despite a de
cline of 3-8#5-8d in Liverpool and
prospects of exports of 6,560,000
bushels from Argentina for the week,
the latter being around 3,500,000
bushels in excess of the previous
week. Offerings around $1.16 1-4 for
May were quickly absorbed by com
mission houses and with short cover
ing and increased outside buying
prices moved up readily at the top
showing l#2c over the early low
with the finish within l-8#l-4c of the
outside figures.
hi port Demand fair.
A belief that the Lenroot credit bill
would pass the senate Friday with an
allied loan to Austria, and a lack of
moisture In the dry districts In the south
west were the main bullish Influences and
there was little opposition until May got
up to around $1.18, at which figure and
over there was plenty of grain for sale.
Export demand was only fair, with sales ,
of 700.000 bushels claimed to have been 1
made to Oreeee. Hard winter premiums
at the gulf were Me lower at 6%e over
Chicago May, the lowest difference on the
crop.
Corn prices advanced to the best figures
In two weeks, and at the top May sold
within lHc and July within lc of the
highest poi^t of the season Sentiment
was bullish and with wheat strong and an
Increase in the outside Interest, the bulge
was easily maintained. There was some
buying by a strong local operator, while
the selling on the advance was largely In
the way of pioflt taking. Rome rain has
fallen In Argentina but more Is needed.
Domestic conditions ronUnue the domi
nating Influence In corn, and reports of a
slow export demand attract little atten
tion. Receipts. 119 cars, with the basis
on Npot better as comnared with May.
Short covering on tne strengtn >n otncr
grains advanced oats priors readily. There
was nothing In the situation to cause In
dependent action. Cash demand slow and
February sold at 41 V4 H<*. or 3’/4c un
der the Mgy. Receipts. 02 ears.
While there was some foreign buying
of rye futures early, there was only a
limited demand at the seaboard and the
advance In futures was due mainly to the
upturn In wheat. The two northwestern
markets had 102 errs.
Pit Notes.
Wheat traders were generally less bear
ish after the close than for some time
past, and while the bulge was regarded
ns due to a large extent to short cover
ing. many of the recent hears admitted
that there was less opposition to the ad
vance than had been expected. There were
few traders, however, who were disposed
to take a decided stand on either side of
the market, as Jhe bearish news from
abroad tends to temper bullish sentiment.
With corn prices at the close within
lHfJIHc of the best price Of the season
those who have been bullish for some time
were more emphatic In their views than
of late and freely predicted that ulti
mately much higher level would be wit
nessed. Attention was called to the fact
that for thfee weeks or more there has
been practically nothing hut bearish news
given to the trade, vet the quotations
show that the reports have had little or
no effect and there has been no. sustained
buying as has been the care In wheat.
Some traders are looking for a rather
sharp reaettpn In wheat In wlew of the
forecast for large Argentina shipments.
However, good support Is expected to de
velop around 117 for May. Corn in ex
pected to case with wheat, but there Is a
very strong bull sentiment In the latter
grain.
There has-been heavy undoing of spreads
In wheat between Chicago and Winnipeg,
according to a trader who Is In a position
to know. At one time recently Winnipeg
May was around lrt1^ under Chicago and at
the close Wednesday was 5c while the
finish today was B^c under.
A long summary of the grain situation
at the seaboard, as wired by Russels News
Indicated that exporters there were puz
r.led over the lack of foreign demand.
Some expressed the belief that buyers
were holding off In anticipation of heavy
pressure from Argentina and Australia,
while others claimed It was due to the fi
nancial situation and a reduction In con
sumption.

! Financial
New York, Feb. 1.—A world wide
EUrvey of financial markets showed
irregularity on the New York Stock
Exchange but no genetal weakness;
firmness on the Paris Bourse and
' great titreng'h of investment secur
ities at London; another advance in
sterling but a moderate further de
cline in francs and marks at both
London and New York; finally and
perhaps not least In the order of in
terest, contlnvfknce of the sharp re
covery in French and Belgian "dollar
i bonds" on Wall street market.
The French republic 8 per cents
rose 1 1-2 points from the previous
day's closing and the 7 l-2s rose 2
points, making the total recovery
| from the week's lowest prices respec
I ttvely 3 3-4 and 4 points.
Cancel* Part of Decline.
This cancels only a fraction of the 10
polnt decline which has occurred in these
bonds since the Paris conference, but the
point of interest to tho financial mind was
that It marks either return cf strong
investment buying or extensive repurchas
ing by ''bears'’ nnd, what is of possibly
larger interest, that this turn in the mar
ket should have occurred on the very day
on which the embargo of tho Ruhr against
Germany was made formally effective. It
Is probable that the interference of an
impending proposal by Germany, drawn
by the correspondents from their talk
with Cuno Wednesday evening, had Its
part in the recovery. Still, two conclu
sions had been already reached In the
financial community; one that the fall ,
In the French securities had gone beyond
reasonable bounds, the other that an ap
proach for compromise by Germany would
be mad* \ before the industrial conse
quences of'the Ruhr embargo should have
gone too far.
The continental exchange rates ended
below yesterday's closing, though none of
them touched the previous low figures
of the week.
Todays' stock market ended with fair
ly evenly distributed net advances and
net declines. The changes were mostly
small fractions and the day's total busi
ness was considerably the smallest since
Tuesday of last week. Even the railway
shares failed to move, paying no at
tention to some very remarkable gains
over 1921 In the December net earn
ings statements by important eastern and
western systems.
Wall Street Topic*.
Information from supposedly well.estab- i
llshed Washington pipe lines, which fil
tered Into banking quarters today, esti
mated that duties collected on Imports
during the fiscal year ending June 30,
next, would be in excess of |480.000.000.
Receipts fop the first 29 day* of January,
It was said. totaled something like
143,309,000. and predictions for the total
month were put at more than $46,000,000.
Approximately $300,000,000 has been col.
lected for the fiscal year to date, it was
reported.
It is a standing complaint with the
brokerage houses, and a particular com
plaint at the moment of most of them,
that the well thought out advice of stu
dents of the market and the conditions
which cause its fluctuations are entirely
unheeded by the customers. "It is rather
discouraging," declared the head of one
brokerage house, "to make a careful study
of railroad conditions, for instance, proph
ecy a nearby movement in the railroad
shares and then have an examination of
your books show that customers pur
chased one or two inconsequential lot* of
railroad shares and are loaded to the
guards with industrials."
The automobile stocks continued unset
tled during the greater part of the day.
On the outside market Durant stock* con
tinued their toboggan slide. This weak
ness In the Durant stocks caused further
unsettlement in the listed motor shares.
Those issues traded In on the stock ex
change ended almost near the high levels,
while Durant stocks closed near the low
point. Durant, at the low price of 40
today, registered a loss of 7 84 points from
tho closing price of Wednesday. It Is
also down more than 50 per cent from tha
high price of 84 established last month.
Durant of Indiana also declined further,
having dropped from 14H to 12*4

Money to Lend on Farms
DURING the year 1922 we loaned $6,454,000 on Nebraska
farms at six per cent, without commission. This was all *
Eastern money.
When we began making these loans, rates were generally
above six per cent and money scarce. Our loans soon had a
noticeable effect upon rates and commissions charged by other
loan companies. These are now approaching pre-war levels.
A striking example of the change in conditions is seen in a
loan we made December 1, 1922. One year previous a loan of
$13,000 was made on a quarter at 6' annual interest, with a
cash commission of $1,000. At the first interest paying date the
owner of the farm took up this loan and placed it with us for 40
years, without commission. When he sent for his abstract, the
ioan agent who one year before had charged him $1,000 commis
sion for a five-year loan called and offered,hirti a new five-year
loan at 5% and a nominal commission.
The fanner had done some thinking. He said that if at the
end of five years (the optional date of our loan) our rates were
lower, as he expected they would be, he could change his loan
with us to a new loan at the lower rate and was sure of that rate
for another 40 years; at the end of another five-year period he
could take advantage of a still lower rate, if we were then lending
at a reduced rate. WE COULD NEVER RAISE THE RA I E ON
HIM. ‘He was forever through with five-year loans.
The chief advantage of our loan is the 40 years’ time and
option at the end of five years or any interest date thereafter,
when the borrower may pay any part or all of the loan.

We are prepared to give prompt service and take any amount
of loans. Write for name of nearest agent and circular describing
our 40-year, 6 per cent farm loan tvithout commission.
