KT IT AT PUTMAN'S DRUG STORE THE HEX A LL STORE EXPANSION OF ! crops C(l (Iui iiik the past month in an easie. 1 credit condition, particularly in the 1-rurnl nections of this- district. For the j first time in more than a year and j 'half the customary rate charge cu:. itomers l.y banks in the leading finan cial centers of the intermountain states, Idaho, Utah and Nevada, is iiepoited to he 71 per cent instead of jti pc-r cent. Combined rediscounts of jell country bank in the district show in .steady decline since August llith, ,ai.c! the total of $00,000,010 under rediscount for country banks on Or j toiler 4th was le.- than the total at 'any time since early summer. Kunils received from the early and heavy Ji-ales of agricultural products this sea son have apparently supplied the cred : it r.eeif which in normal years is met il.y an increase of bank borrowings 'it I this HMiMin, ! "The statement of the (f VeportiiiK member banks in this district as of October nth last shows that their bar rowings during the past month from the Federal Reserve Hank have not in (rrased, despite a small expansion, If:;, 7L:i.()0, in loans to their customer. I '-Petroleum production in California during September, on account of a strike, was the smaller monthly pro. i:.ction in two and a, half years, and for the first time this year' consump tion exceeded production with a re sultant decrease in storage stocks. "lioth retail and wholesale trade ex Pfriented the increased activity cuu-toiniij- in September, as compared with August. Sales of .'10 representa tive department stores during Septem ber were 8.7 per cent less in dollar value than in September 11120, whereas 'similar percentages in the 10 lines nf wholesale trade reporting to this bank vary from 12.2 per cent in the case of automobile tires ,:to B2.8 per cent in the case of agricultural implements. Having regard for the greater percent age of decline in wholesale than in re tail prices, it is probably true that the ! physical volume of goods now moving at wholesale, with the exception of ag rirultuial implements and perhaps sta tiona is about the same as that of ; September, 1(120, while' the volume nT retail movement is appreciably larger than it was a year ago. i "Slightly increased employment ie , the four largest cities of the district during September scarcely counterbal i anced the cessation of harvest activ ities in many rural districts, and the net change in employment conditions dining the month has been negligible "Tiie heavy marketing of grain oil served in August has continued during th" month of September. Receipts at eaboard cities in the Pacific North west tiius far this -season have been I I I per cent greater than those of the coirealionding period of 1020. Activ ity in flour milling has increased sub- having infested the cotton growing areas of this district. "In California the substantial carry over of their li20 crop, which a few months ago v.-as disturbing the pro ducers of raitdns and prunes in Cal ifornia, is now reported to have been sold and demand for the new crops is steady at opening prices. Almonds and walnuts, of which commoditie California grows over 00 per cent of the United States' production, have a; j been bought rapidly at opening pric-s out. this activity an increase in both dom estic and foreign demand for flour. "Other seasonal crops of this dis trict now moving to market are apples from the Pa'-ifi; N'oniiwesi, cotton from Arizona and Southern California rice from Northern . California, and California specialty fruits, such laisins, prunes, almonds and walnut.-; The early maturity of the apple crop of the Pacific Northwest has permit ted shipments so far this season 20") per cent greater in amount than thosel of last year to the same date, and at prices which have averaged appiox- imately the same as those received in 1020.

Although the city still has the au thority to issue $000,00 in bonds and proceed with u new plant, it is.veiy doubtful that the council will act i.i the face of the adverse vole shown yesterday.

There is no doubt but that the attempt of the city tc ei nstrui-t a new plant would lie fought at every turn and long and expensive litigation would develop.
