THURSDAY, MARCH 25. 1915 GOOD BUSINESS PROPOSITION Salesday week is beginning to be looked upon as an event of a good deal of importance in rhe business life of Albany and surrounding coun try. It is of more importance to the section covered, because it is helping to give a market for things desired to be sold. Whatever sets things of a business character to circulating is of benefit to the entire country reach ed by i For a long time Albany has needed a sitmulus of this charac ter, something that would put an electric current through things, and it looks as if this is doing it better than anything ever attempted here. As it becomes a matter of permanence it will be more effective as a business circulator. o- TRADE IMPROVING. Dunn's commercial agency is con sidered an authority on the financial condition of the country, the state- mets of the agency being carefully weighed and presented without fear or favor. Here is the last, which the Democrat takes pleasure in present ing: From every part of the country the reports are of trade improvement, which though slow and conservative, serves to reduce the margin of defi ciency in production and demand and to bring the volume of transactions closer to normal. Favorable weather conditions and the prospect of au early spring, promote retail distribu tion and stimulate the movement ot lumber and other building materials. with promising indications of more general construction work. Activity in shipyards continues. The iron and steel trade fairly maintains its recent rate of grain, being especially helped by new construction, the shipyard de mand and large export orders. 1 he railroads, whose gross earnings are still represented by the minus sign, the decline in the first week of March being 8.6 per cent as compared with last year, are ordering supplies ot steel with conservatism indeed, but the total amount makes a rather im posing aggregate. In the textile markets there is, on the whole, a steady improvement both in whole sale and retail lines, but the businest mills are those occupied chiefly with foreign orders. The shoe trade is more quiet. Wheat, corn and oats vacillate in price and activity with the changes in crop prospects and ex port demand. It is noteworthy that present winter wheat conditions give promise of another heavy yield. There is increasing strength in the financial position of the country and exports continue heavy, these two factors be ing closely related. During the latest week exports exceeded imports by $47,229,659, which breaks the record for any previous week, and since the first of January the balance of trade in favor of this country amounts to ov . er $323,000,000. A continuance of this movement will change the United States, perhaps permanently, from a debtor to a creditor nation. Business conditions in this country are re markably good, considering the fact that the whole world is in a turmoil, and the war in Europe is increasing in violence, the intensity of the interna tional cotlict having been increased by the measures taken by Great Brit ain to cut Germany completely off from commercial intercourse with the rest of the world.

These Mexican apologies are al ways interesting reading between the lines. Plenty of room for everybody. A good rule in life is to just run your own machine and let the other fellow run his. The fellow who lets go of the wheel generally takes a tumble for his trouble. Nevertheless it, is a fine thing to be a helper in this world of difficul ties and reefs and rocks. This is an age of team work. No use pulling and hauling against a fel low in the same business. Watch for the tune and keep step. That is if it isn't all rag time. The teady, easy gait is what counts. Some people don't wait until Ap. 1 to be fooled. Horse flesh in Vienna is now worth 10 to 16 cents a pound. This is a big world. The V. S. has a bread line in Belgium. Albany kids who think they have to have half a dozen slices of bread at a meal should think of the little Ger man children who are allowed only one slice at a meal.

One of the best schemes that has come to the ears of the Democrat is (hut of the business men of Corvallis, who have offered big prises to road supervisors who will make the best improvement on their roads from now until the first October. Under the arrangement the committee of five shrewd men will inspect the different districts at the beginning,, and then at the end, finally passing their judg ment upon the improvement made. As the prises range from$J0l to $100 they are sufficiently large to make it an object of contest, and it is safe to predict that a good many of the su pervisors will enter into the contest with seal and push the work of im provement during the entire period.
