Warm Weather Checks Demand for
Cubes for Storing, but Prices
Arc Maintained.
The warmer weather has had the effect
of checking the demand for cube butter
In the local market, but former prices
are generally maintained. Where shading
has been done, it has been because the
butter has showed the effect of heat.
The eastern markets continued very
steady during th past week, opening with
a slight advance, but they lost the gain
later. The Increase In storage holdings
fo.r the month of June last year was
approximately 38,000,000 pounds against
only 1:0,500,000 pounds this year. The rate
of Increase for the past week has been
the best of the month, but still a million
pounds lighter than last year. If July
remains cool with good rains, storing dur
ing July probably will be heavy. Cana
dian creamery was received a Boston and
Chicago and more is rolling. This scores
02, and what is available is being
stored. Preference is for domestic "cen
tralized," as it can be bought at the same
price. The storage of Danish butter con
tinues at New York.
The American Creamery Butter Manu
facturers' Association of Centralizers shows
an output for April, May and June of
43.000,000 pounds this year, against 51.
000,000 last year. The bureau of crop
estimates reported more cows January 1.
1920. than last year, but milk production
Is evidently short as the output of all
kinds of dairy products appears light.
At San Francisco the market was fea
tured by light receipts, and active demand
for the finer grades of butter for local
consumption. The democratic convention
and the increase in demand for stocks for
over the holidays served to reduce trading
stocks to an unusually low level. As a
consequence the price for 02 score butter
showed a net increase of 213c for the
week, and towards the close a part of
the trade was turning to medium grades
on account of the scarcity of the finer
quality butter. Although the market ruled
steady to firm throughout the week, a
weaker undertone developed at the close.
"SO DEMAND l'OR EASTERN CORN
Darley and Oats Bids Are Lower on Local
Kourd.
There were no corn bids at the grain
board session yesterday. August oats were

ant Issues to Hold Back All
Classes of Bonds Improve.
NEW YORK, July 6. The session of
the stock exchange today was accom
panied by general but irregular- acces
sions to last week's spirited rally, events
over the three-nay recess receiving favor
able interpretation In professional quar
ters. Dealings assumed wider and more solid
dimensions than at almost any period In
the previous month. Transportation shares
were the only issues of Importance to
continue their sluggish and uncertain
course.
Money was the paramount factor, call
loans soon easing from their opening
rate of 0 per cent, with free supplies
at 7 per cent in the less active though
higher price level of the last hour.
The foreign exchange market was mod
erately active on an accumulation of busi
ness. British bills eased slightly, but
marked strength was shown by French
and Belgian remittances, also Italian ex
change. Terms of the new Swiss $25,000,000 loan
by an American syndicate at 8 per cent
yield Indicated that the Helvetian repub
lic Is feeling the world-wide money strain.
Sales amounted to 565.000 shares.
All class of bonds, including liberty and
international Issues, shared in the better
tone of the investment market. Total
sales (par value), $11,175,000. Old United
States bonds were unchanged on call.

MANY warehouses, storage sheds, tool houses,
and farm buildings are put up for a use
that does not justify a large expenditure.
You may want five years or ten years or twenty
years of service.
It is for such buildings that Carey Roll Roofings
are especially designed. And for your convenience
they are made in light weights for short term
buildings and in medium, heavy, and extra heavy
weights for more permanent buildings.
You can have your choice of red or green fade
less crushed slate surface, grape-vine or smooth
talc surface, mica or sand finished surfaces.
Because each kind is sold in several different
weights you can protect any type of building for
the term required at the minimum cost per year of
service.

COMMERCE According to the figures of the United States department of commerce,
post-war trade balance of Switzerland in 1919 was slightly better than the aver
age of the 10-year period before the war. The volume of the foreign trade of
Switzerland then reached the highest figures known in the history of the country
from the standpoint of value, but even allowing for a general increase of 100 per
cent in prices the indicated volume of commodities is greater than normal.
FINANCIAL CONDITION The general debt of Switzerland (including this issue, but
after deducting the debt on account of the national railways, which in normal years
. have shown a profit over interest and sinking fund requirements) amounts to
about $365,202,988, or about $85 per capita, against which the national wealth
in 1913 was estimated at about $4,400,000,000, or about $1135 per capita, and
is now estimated at about $6,000,000,000, or about $1400 per capita. The finan
cial credit of Switzerland is high.
