How Cement Industry Anticipates Your Heeds $40,000,000 represents the value of the Portland cement —finished and nearly fin ished—which manufac turers had in reserve storage at their mills on April 30, 1922, in anticipation of your summer needs. This figure is based on the aver age 1921 mill price reported by U. S. Geological Survey. Carrying such stocks in ad vance of actual demand means: ’ 'Heavy financing. As most cost items represent actual cash outlay. / Taking chances on jfuture dee t mand. Large fixed investments in stor age bins, amounting sometimes to more than half a million dol- » lars in even a medium-sized plant—for cement is a bulky material and has to be kept dry. As things turned out, last year was a record one in the demand for cement. Government figures show 116,563,000 barrels were shipped, yet that was less than 80 per cent of the industry’s produc ing capacity. And nearly 70 per cent or 80,000,000 barrels of this total was Called for by cement users in the six-months’ period, . May to October inclusive. This shows the seasonal nature of demand for cement Most people still believe that the “building season” means six or seven months of the year instead of twelve. Last year more than14,000,000 bar rels of"cement were shipped during August and less than 3,000,000 barrels in January. Cement being a basic building ma terial is a prime mover—in other words, the demand for cement immediately creates a demand for all other building materials. And , this comes at a time when crop and fuel movements are already overtaxing the railroads. In anticipating future demand and in educational work to lengthen the so-called building season, ce ment manufacturers are always trying to serve your best interests.

NEW YORK, Jan. 23.—Today's cotton market reflected a better feeling over the Buhr situation. In consequence, it sellers in the Liverpool market were described as beihg overwhelmed by buying orders from the continent, Lon don and Ameroca. Certainly the sharp rise there reflected an extraordinary demand, furthermore the ginning report of 9 652,000 bales shows conclusively that ’ the government has again badly overestimated 'the cotton crop and these figures registering facts no doubt im pressed foreign traders again most se riously as to the supply situation. Demand for snot cotton in the sojrth is reported improved at a stronger basis. In fact one of ' our merchant friends states demand there is the -best experienced for the- past fit e weeks. Accompanying this situation Worth street continued to send in favorable reports as to strong demand for goods and scattered lots of gray goods 64x60 s 5 35 yards to the, pound were reported sold at 11 cents to speculators or an other new high record. Trade demand continued to be felt in the mArket here and although prices made new high records for the move ment and final quotations were practi cally at the top yet there seems no di minution of demand and no desire at present oh the part of any but scatter ed longs to liquidate. Above 30 cents is now freely predicted and in some quarters 35 cents is believed to be the figure that may be reached before a check to the public buying power of cotton fabrics may b.e expected and with this in view it is believed in cer tain well advised circles that the re gistration of such a figure is but a matter of time..

The afternoon reaction accom ~panied marking up of the call money rate from 4 to 5.per cent, news of the Turkish rejection of the British propo sal regarding the Mosul oil fields and a break in Fisher Body stock.. The reaction was halted- by bullish demonstration in rubber shares, which accompanied announcement of another increase in the price of crude rubber to 37 cents a pound. There was also a heavy accumulation of railroad shares just before the close. Trading continued to be largely a professional affair, the volume of sales being even lower than that of. yester day, which was the smallest full session since the middle of last August. Baldwin and Stud-ebaker were again the most active of the leading indus trials but several prominent industrials were also strong. Woolworth was one of the most conspicuous weak spots, Beech Nut Packing also dropped on announcement by the president of the company that no immediate increase in dividends was contemplated. No special reason was assigned for the heavy*buying of rail shares in the final dealings. - A brisk rally took place in most for eign exchanges rates. Demand sterling advanced 1 cent to $4.66% and French checks rose 18 points -to 6,53 with the more moderate advances in the Belgian and Italians rates. Danish exchange jumped to 19.40.
