SNOW PROTECTS WINTER WHEAT
1 OiIOAOO. De.-. 20. -The Modern Miller
says: Oeueral snowetorms over the greater
, part of the winter wheat belt hare furnished
. ample covering to protect the plsnt from
danger of serious Injury from a sodden freeae.
For the present the condition la all that oonld
ha desired, as there. Is no particularly severs
weather reported anywhere, and the teuipcr
mure is sufficiently low to put an cud to
activities of insect pests. Radical steps are
being taken In sections where green bugs have
i*en prevalent, looking to their eradication.
Some localities in which the ravages of Hes
sian fly were causing uneasiness report thst
owing to the protecting warm weather the
brood of flies have hatched and flown away,
thus rendering their destruction by coid
weather certain.

OUTLOOK HOPEFUL
AS YEAR CLOSES
New York Banker Says There
Is Wide Feeling of En
couragement
That the year 1913 Is closing with a
feeling of more encouragement on the
New York stock exchange is the
atatement of Henry Clews in his
financial review for the current week.
It ia now a time, he says, for calm
self-restraint an,d hopefulness.
"Recovery may develop when least
expected." he says. "It should be re
membered that many adverse con
ditions have been amply discounted
by present low prlcea. With the tariff
and currency problema taken out of
politics there la so much gained.
There Is also increased hope that the
railroads will eventually secure par
tial conceaslons. Government owner
anip of railroads and telegraphs may
oe coming issuea, but they ate far
from accomplishment.
, " A considerable short interest ex
ists, and a buying power of consider
able importance has grown through
the withholding of investment pur
< nases Tor montns back; these are ele
ments of strength. January dividend
payments will approach $250,000,000.
and any favorable news under such
conditions would l.c apt to precipitate
tmi * p rise - The Immediate future
win be a good deal Influenced by
financial conditions abroad, which may
coon begin to right themselves."

DEMAND EXPANDS
FOR N. Y. STOCKS
Reading Leads in Upward
Movement After Early
Hesitation
NEW YORK". Dec. 26.—Trading be
gan today in a hesitatiug way. with
an even balance among the leaders of
small gains and losses. Reading,
which opened a trifle lower, suon be
gan to climb under the spur of active
bidding until it showed a gain of a
point. The whole, list stiffened. Le
high Valley rose two and Amalga
mated one.
The varied demand of the early mar
ket carried many stocks to new high
levels for the upward movement, anu
although realizing s;tles later caused
the Hat to fall back the recession did
not undermine the confident (eellng
which has grown up in the laat week.
European markets are still closed
for the holidays, so that there was no
further foreign liquidation. Reading
once more led the market, being influ
enced by reiteration of reports that a
segregation plan was under considera
tion as a result of negotiations with
the government
Missouri Pacific, Canadian Pacific
and Norfolk and Western showed fur
ther heaviness, but copper shares
moved up briskly on the improvement
in metal prices, here and abroad, bonds
were firm.
Publication of unfavorable Novem
ber railroad reports and heavy real
izing in Reading caused prices to sag
again in mid-afternoon. Heading's
advance was canceled and gains else
where were largely cut into.

STATE OUTLOOK
BEST IN YEARS
Good Agricultural Season Is
Assured by Recent
Rainfalls
"Not in years has the outlook been
more promising for a good agricul
tural season in California," says the
financial letter of the American Na
tional bank, Issued today. "The rain
fall In most sections has been far
above that of last year and the storms
have come at such intervals as to
favor the farmers In tile preparation
of the soil for their crops. Ship
ments of citrus fruits are going for
ward in Increasing volume, and it is
believed that the total output of Cali
fornia this season will reach 40,000
cars.
"In the northern districts the yield
1b exceptionally large, and high prices
have been obtained. South of the Te
hachapi range, where frost damage
created havoc last year, most exten
sive preparations have been made
for smudging in case of cold weather,
and unless a cold snap of long dura
tion and marked severity should en
sue, it is believed the fruit can be
fully protected. Shipments of fresh
deciduous fruits have ceased—the
total shipments for the season having
been 13,332 cars. The manager of the
California Fruit distributors, estimat
ing on a general average of $1,400 a
car, places a valuation of $18,500,000
on these shipments.
"The oil production in California for
1913 is expected to roach a. total of
more than 95,000,000 barrels gross.
Pieparations on a large scale are be
ing made for the increased consump
tion which it is believed will follow
the opening of the Panama canal. It
is a fact well recognized that the
great problem of the oil industry in
this state Is that of reaching the mar
kets of the world expeditiously and
economically. With the improved
transportation facilities afforded hv
the canal this problem Lids fair to be
solved, and the future of the oil in
dustry la full of promise
"In common with the entire I'nited
States, California is experiencing a
period of semi-dullness in business.
For the month of November the bank
clearings showed a decline as com
pared with November, 1912. in every
city of the state except Sacramento,
Stockton and Bakersfieid. Judging
from the figures thus far recorded the
total clearings of San Francisco for
1913 will be about 2 per cent less than
they were in 1912."

NEW BANK LAW
TO HELP TIMES
Financial Air Is Cleared and
and Better Conditions
Are Assured
San Francisco bankers look for an
almost immediate improvement in
financial and banking conditions in
this city and state as tlie result of
the enactment of the new banking
law. While they had not been unani
mously in favor of tiie measure when
it was pending as a bill, they are now
; disposed to take a more optimistic
view of the situation, particularly as
some of the objectionable features
have been eliminated.
The removal of all uncertainty re
garding ihe bill, they say. will end
the antagonistic attitude <«f eastern
financiers and clear the financial air
generally. The almost certain loca
tion of one of the regional banks in
San Francisco, they declare, will be
of considerable benefit to this city.
Reserves will then be carried here,
where they can be distributed to meet
the most urgent requirements of
business, instead of being carried In
New York or Chicago banks.
As yet none of the local national
banks has applied for regional mem
bership, pending the receipt here of
the complete text of the law. hut it
is believed all nine will be appli
cants.
"The underlying principles of the
currency law are good." said F. 1..
Lipman, vice president of Wells Fargo
Nevada National bank, "and unless
the text should contain some objec
tionable provision of which we have
not heard this bank will formally
apply for membership. In a general
way the settlement of this question
will be of benefit to the country at
large, while the placing of a regional
bank in San Francisco will add to
the importance of this city as a
banking center."
i "We are very favorably disposed to
the new law and our bank will cer
tainly apply for association member
ship, " said Herbert Fleishhacker.
president Anglo and London Paris
National bank. "The new law should
prove particularly beneficial to this
city and coast. Fnder the old na
tional bank act, we were required to
carry 25 per cent of net deposits of
cash In our vaults or in a central re
serve city, where it drew 2 per cent
interest. The only damage that can
be wrought by the new law is to
| New York. Chicago and St. Louis,
I where the reserves were carried.''
"I have telegraphed to Washins-
I ton for the text of the new act,*' said
| George N. O'Brien, president of the
American National bank, "and 1 ex
] pect this batik will make formal ap
j plication for membership. The enart-
I ment of the law will clear the bank
ing atmosphere and I have no doubt
it will he found quite workable.*'
"The placing of a regional hank in
San Franc'sco seems practically as
sured," said James K. Lynch, vice
president of the First National hank.
'How the new law will affect this
city I can not say until I see the text
lof the act. I have no doubt but that
this bank will apply for membership."
"The settlement of the question
should have a beneficial effect upon
banking and financial conditions," said
Wellington Gregg .Ir.. cashier of the
Crocker National bank.
