Kvcry seven Illness Is accompanied by a slow period of convalescence. Jl Is the same with ' the business body as with ttie human body. As a matter of fact, It is surprising that business has survived, as well as it lias, the great upheaval which it re ceived during the World, war. "The second' reason for current dullness In some lines Is the direct result of had weather which cer tain sections of the country have suffered the past winter. The weather was generally good every where until about the middle of January when . a tretnenduously cold wave hit the north with heavy snow storms in many sections. New York slate waH tied up worse than it has been for years. This snow in the North was accompanied with rains in the South where railroads wc(.c, ...washed out ami farms were flooded. Then in I'V-b-rmiry the weather suddenly tinned warm ever where. The .snow and ice melted; shipping and transpor 'allon or all kinds was blocked by togs;, ami the rivers swelled.

Hank, clear ings, car luadiugs and other Im portant business barometers show a dent due lo this mouth of unsea sonably weather. "Not-, only is buying retarded by had woather, but transport at ion and distribution are likewise checked. I'Overj thing is delayed from the mails to the freights. Wires get down Interfering with telegraph and telephone communi cation; while both passenger and freight trains are late. This not only delays the delivery of pas sengers anil finished incichiindise. but causes shut downs of factories for want of coal,, raw -materials or other supplies. Added to all this is. the com of handling snow, clear ing 11 way ice and repairing dam ages tu property. ; lluslucss Mowed I p. "In addition to general retail trade being retarded by unseason able find bad weather, cer.'ain lu dust rfes are especially affected, liad driving weather always slows up uutomohile and truck pur chases; while the demand for tires, oil, gasoline und other ac cessories dee lines sharply. The building trades are, of course, al ways held up by winter weather, and road building whii'h is now such a factor must be suspended iu the north during such a period. Kveu the overcoat trade has been very unsatisfactory first the weather was so bail that people did not gel out to buy; then It be came so warm thai people did nut want overcoats. ,4Thus we ace there Is a good reason why general business has not been as good th'e past Mow weeks as many thought it would be. It is true that the corner t u rned for t h 4 bet t c r wit h t h o election of Coolldge in November. The weather even played 11 part in electing him. The good crops of the I niled Stales and the poor crops of Kurope resulted in giving our discouruged farmers a new hope just before election which helped the Itepublicaii party. This same weather has not behaved so well since and. in fuet, went on a riotous spree for a Yew weeks in January and Kebruary from which we are now suffering." In'iiudllion to giving these rea sons for the disappointing business with certain sections are witness ing. Mr. Pabson concluded with t hese woVdsj "This study of weather and business demonstrates most clear ly how dependent we all are ou one another.
