Directors of the First Nutional bar.k of St. Helens have awarded u contract to the company BAUSON Park. (Special) Itoirer W. Bauson has fust com pleted his summer survey of the business situation to secure data as to i ho fall outlook. He finds a small but real Improvement tr. the situation Since his last analyst six months ao. A summary of hi conclusions is as follows: Crop Conditions " Da ale I y the United States is very U petoYnt upon the crops. During July the grain crops oi the county did not progress very vell, but during the month of Au gust conditions hs.ve improved. Al though Die wheat crop will full be. low that of taut year there Is Utile reason for complaint. Moreover, the corn crop seems sure to run in excess of the short crop of Inst season, barring possibility of early frosts. Outs, also, promise a larger crop than the July report indicated and the same applies to several of the other grains.

"Exports are showing some lit tie recovery from their low point of Jnne while. Imcprts are running D'oni about the same as during the preceding n.x months. Both the eNporta and imports of August exceed those of ..fugust 1924. For the eight months of the calendar year we have a balance of trade, on the export side, if over ttfreo hundred million dollars which is in overs of fie first eliht moj:ths ,o' 1924.
