lead mines to the St. Joseph Load
Company for 810.000 000. The proo;
parties are located in- southeastern

purchasing company.
The St. Joseph company and the
American Smelting and Refining's
subsidiary company have heretofore
carried on the mining and smelting _,
of their ore bodies in substantially
the same way and have for some
time realized that large economies
could be effected .by single operation
of both mines- and increase smut
operation at either of the smelters
owned by the companies.

BUSINESS >
The First National Bank of Bos-
ton flnds that while the increase in
business activity which developed
during the summer is being main-
tained throughout the country New
England is finding business less sat-
isfactory. not so much due to slight-
ly reduced volume as to scant or no
margin ct profit. says the Hartford
Courant. Retail trade is better than
last year and the lack of unem-
ployment is proof of continued pur-
chasing power indicating a heavy
volume of trade over the year-end.
The bank asserts that, neverthe-
less. New England finds it dimcult
to manufacture at a reasonable pro-
fit. The cotton mills especially. ad-
mitting a strong retail demand. are
badly handicapped by high raw ma-
terial and 30ocent cotton spells dc-
crtased consumption of cotton yard-
age. Carloadings in New England.

year though this is out of line with

explained by the trade as due to the
lowest prices in history. more varied

transportation and continued "im-

In conclusion the bank laterals its
patrons that a gain of 28 per cent.

ports to Latin America. Th1- also is
said. and is worth some thought:—
