Recent offerings of bonds have
been so speedily absorbed as to
demonstrate the magnitude of the
investment disposition which char
acJcrtzes savings tanks, Insurance
companies and private citizens.
These are gratifying days for the
lio ud sellers who go about to offer
bonds for sale. They discover thit
they are welcomed, whereas, not
long ago they were abruptly din
missed. They are now cordially
stoked to show the list of bonds
which they are offering for le and
they are earning large commission!.

Tha United Statu produrea about ti

pork. The eatlmata ia made that even
at the reduced price of rorn the expert

will he of value of nearly S300.000.000
In thla year. That la l!C0.O0O.000 In

which la exported In the form of meal
or In Ita natural atate. Within 10 yeara
there went out from tho porta of the
United atatea ta other countrlee pork
products of tha aifregate value of I3,0oo..
600,000. In other worda wa exported In
10 yeara pork into which corn was con
verted approximately equivalent to tha
number of buebels of corn which vera
harvested thla year.
Tha magnitude of our corn crop ex
plains why tha United States ta ths
larceat producer of awlna of any country
In the world. For It Is t-onvanlent and
inexpensive comparatively to convert corn
Into pork produeta. Therefore, by reason
of tho low market price of corn much
the Br eat pVrt of the S, 152, 000. 000
bushels of corn which were harveiiti-d
this year will be converted Into pork
. products and thla will ba dona to tha
advantaia of tha farmers and to tha
benefit of other parts of the world which
rely upon the United States to so great
an extent for bacpn and other pork

many in the reparations controversy,
it was natural that foreign exchange
should (all back today.
. The one concrete reality in the
newa was the occurrence of panic
on the Berlin stock exchange, re
sulting directly from the 50 per cent
advance of the mark s price oq lor
eign exchange since Monday, t!ie
last previous day when the bourse
was open. In some respect! this
formidable crash suggested Wall
street's "Northern Pacific panic of
l'X)J." In more respects it resem
bles our own -black Friday" of Sep
tembrr 18o9, when the breakdown of
a wild speculation carried tho price
of gold, in IS minutes from loS to
13S, or as one would express it
nowadays, put up the depreciated
dollar from 06 1-Jc to 64c, raised
the money rate to 4 per cent a day
and broke the stock market 20 to
30 per cent.

Today's movements on th New Tork
stock exchange were greatly confused and
of evidently professions! origin. In the
main, prices went higher, but tha sharp
bidding up of a few Industrial atocks,
notably the Independent steel shsres. wss
nffnet by rsther substantial declines In the
railway shares. The bond market as a
whole repeated Ita moderate reaction of

Tho recent shsrp recoveries In the grain

In spite of th active buying of wheat

"Winter wheat condition In th dry

Modern Miller. "An abnormally largo

The heavy buying of oat the past few
days haw been credited to Armour and
this Interest is also credited with being
long a huge line of May oat. Oat
traders have commented a good deal the
past day or so on the way the December
liquidation In oats was taken care of.
Sale to go to store of 150,000 bushels
were reported. Deliveries this morning
were 10,000 bushels wheat, 103,000 bushels

Liverpool cabled that the demand for
corn In the United Kingdom had provided
a strong undertone.
Logan tc Bryan had ths following from
New Tork: "Foreign news more bullish.
Argentina rather more bullish on corn.
Looka like some export business today."
Minneapolis wired: "Some wheat la be
