The farm real estate market Improved so much during the past year that federal land banks, for the first time since 1034, are ' holding less than $100,000,000 worth of farms. Now York, Oct. S UP) Re-i tail trade attained peak levels ! this week as buyers rushed to , make purchases before the new federal taxes on a wide variety of goods became effective on Wednesday, Dun at Bradstreet said today in the weekly review of business. "The wave of "beat the tax' buying carried sales to Christ mas levels while gains over a year ago were among the widest recorded," the agency said. "Consumer interest first cen-1 tered upon items subject to the retail tax but shortly spread to merchandise affected by manu facturing lines and eventually developed into a general buying rush. Weather that was more seasonal contributed to volume gains by spurring demand for ' fall goods, particularly men's top coats and heavier furnish ings. Mainly Non-Essential "Pre-tax buying was conspu ous in cosmetics cameras, furs, ; Jewelry, liquor and sporting goods lines. Sales volumes over j four and five times as large as I those of a year ago were report-j ed frequently." j The agency estimated the gains over a year ago for the country as a whole was from 23 to 33 percent, one of the best ! advances of the year. In the I major regions the percentage gain over 1940 was: New Eng-1 land, 23 to 33, south, 28 to 35, i southwest, 25 to 30, middle west i 20 to 23, northwest, 18 to 22. east 25 to 30 and Pacific coast, 1 30 to 35. !
