If you would like to know more of this wonderful record, ask your Firestone dealer to send you an illustrated folder. With today's high cost of crude rubber and other raw materials, Firestone's oppor tunity to serve the public was never better, due to its great volume and special advanta ges in buying, manufacturing and distribution.

Ore William Short, 2 Auk. 28 alias Hilly Improvement in business and trade in the Twelfth Federal Re serve District, first noted during June, continued during July, and general business activity during the latter month was near the highest level of the year. The prospect of satisfactory yields of the district' principal crops, and favorable market conditions for crops and livestock were impor tant factors in the maintenance of trade volume during the month. Industrial activity In creased seasonally during July and, as la the previous month, was above the level of a year ago. Gains in Industrial employ ment were reported In all states of the district during July, 1926. as compared with July, 1924. :The volume of credit extended by reporting member banks during July, 1925, was the largest ever recorded, but borrowings from tne Federal Reserve Hank con tinued relatively small In amount. This bank's index of bank de bits, an approximate measure of business activity In the district, advanced from 140 (1918 month ly average equals 100) In June to 147 in July, due allowance be ing made for normal seasonal variation in the actual figures at reported by banks In 20 principal financial and business centers.

The July, 1825, figures wero 16.1 pen cent smaller than simllur fi gures for June, 1925. The norm al seasonal decrease from June to July has been estimated to be approximately 2 per cent. Lumber production at reporting mills of four associations in the district was 6.4 per cent smaller In volume during July than dur ing June, the decrease "being the result, chiefly, of the enstomary curtailment of lumbering opera tions during the first two weeks of July. Output of reporting mills was smaller than either sules or shipments', which also de creased slightly during July, and unfilled orders were larger, and stocks at producing centers smal ler, at the close of the month thnn at Its beginning.
