more now than in 1896 by $63, 1854 1852; the United States notes more by s67,S4s,s25 and the national bank notes more by $3O, ,724 ,344. The gold bullion in the treasury ran up from $26,S21 ,4S1 on March l. 1896, to s127.- 3S5,067 on March 1, 1S99
 There does not seem to me to be a de- nciency in the circulating medium The aoundance of gold coin does not give re- lief because of the prejudice of bankers ana their customers against Its use. As remedy the national banks might add to The volume of their notes. But they do not see the profit to attract them to such a policy. The only other pathway under ex- 1sting laws to additional circulation is in the use of gold. Coin is less convenient than paper, but other countries use 1t
 The endless chain is no longer in opera ton. No legal tender notes nave been of fered for gold in a long time. The excess of our exports over imports is so large and so continuous that we are not likely to have to ship gold to the old world for years to come. Besides that and even more important the increase in our production of gold is strong safeguard for the treas ury. It is at present and promises to be an enduring break of the endless chain.' Gold is in such relative excess that no one wants to give up legal tender notes or indeed any sort of paper for it.

GOLD COIN MUST
 BE CIRCULATED Bankers and Customers Preju- diced Against the Metal. PER CAPITA HAS INCREASED According to a Statement by United States Treasurer Ellis H. Roberts
 The Endless Chain" No
 Longer in Operation.
PER CAPITA HAS INCREASED

Washington, March A-United States Treasurer Ellis H. Roberts said today that the impression that the lack of paper money is due to enforced withdra walls of notes by the treasury is not true.
 "The total circulation per capita in the country, including coin and paper," said MT. Roberts, "has increased from $23.S5 on March l, 1898, to $25.51 on March 1, 1Ss9 This inc ,sase has been progressive for sev- eral years. The increase has, it is true, been largely in gold coin, from s445 ,2s3,5 ,5M on March l, 1ss6 to $702,sO ,26s at the first of the current month. You will observe that the growth of gold coin has been s257 o11 ,67S, but in total circulation for that period the growth has been $400, 100 ,555, showing a net increase of $143.0SS, SIT outside of gold coin There has been an increase within these years in every item of cir culation except gold certificates. treasury notes and currency certificates.

I give little attention to fancy varieties, the old reliable valley chickens serving my purpose better than I anticipated when I went into the business.''
 The demand for eggs from the white house is lagest at Eastertime, and a vast quantity of MT. Bordens supply at that season finds its way, after the eggs have been boiled and colored, into the hands of the little folks, who spend Easter Monday afternoon in egg-rolling contests on the grounds of the executive mansion.

EGGS FOR THE WHITE HOUSE.
Virginia Hens That Have a Monopoly in
 Supplying Them.

From the Baltimore American
 For eight years MT. Hanson Borden, a Virginia farmer, has supplied the white house at Washington, with eggs, beginning when General Harrison was chief magis- trate. MT. Borden's eggs go exclusively to the presidents table. He is depended upon to~meet all demands from the white house.
 MT. Borden usually ships two crates a week, each crate containing thirty dozen eggs Eight crates Is the largest number he ever shipped in one week. Each egg is personally inspected by him before being placed in the white house crate, and only the largest and choicest are selected Every one receives vinegar bath and tag bearing the shippers name. The eggs are kept fresh until shipment by being put in a room of low temperature
 Mr. Bordens farm is situated five miles northwest of Woodstock. A long row of concrete one-story houses, reminding one of the negro cabins of ante-bellum days, though more inviting in appearance, close by little stream that has it's source near the mountain a few miles away, attract ones attention. There are the henhouses "a dozen of them-each with room 10x16 feet. Accommodations for 100 chickens are provided in each room. The ceilings are high for henhouses, and there is an invit- ing air of cleanliness about them. Each house has a separate yard, though MT. Borden gives the chickens the run of his farm. He feeds them three times daily, fresh meat and puverized bone forming an important part of their menu.
 .How did l come to go into the chicken business, you ask," said MT. Borden. Tt was about thirteen years ago, when wheat egan to recede from the dollar mark. determined to make my wheat yield dol- lar a bushel and chose the hen to help me. She has done her part nobly, and my books will show that get more than a dollar for my wheat year in and year out

DUN'S REVIEW

New York, March 24-Bradstreet's to- morrow will say:
 Stormy weather, retarding spring distr- buttons in some sections, has imparted an irregular appearance to general trade while some few reductions in prices of leading staples notably raw cotton and wool copper and some other few metals, serve to break the otherwise almost unvarying appearance of strength of staple values.
 The general commercial situation, how ever, continues to present much apparent strength, and the few lines that note quieter tone of business find ready substi- tutes among other branches, which as yet have been rather backward The see-saw of wheat prices has been upward this week theoretically on reports of crop damage at home and abroad but largely owing to the speculative overselling during last weeks depression, which, by the way, again de- veloped some foreign buying. Better weather at the south and especially im- proved roads find reflection in a larger volume of receipts of cotton this week and the result is fractional shading of prices.
 Coffee is slightly lower on the week on rather less active jobbng inquiry, while the high. price of copper seems at least to be affecting demand, which has slackened up, with a consequent drop in values in that metal sympathetically in other de- clines

this week was generally strong, It's most remarkable feature being the resistance which was offered to the influence of higher rates for money. As explained else where the combination of reasonable de- mands from the interior for the April set dement's with the temporary looking up of some large amounts in cotton, with pending industrial companies deals, caused at the beginning of the week marked reduction in the supply of call money and an advance in the rates which Wall street had to pay for accommodation on stock collateral to 5@6 per cent, some quotations as high as to 10 per cent being also recorded.

Scottsboro, March 2-(SpeciaL)-Th re- turns from the recent primary show that Hon. Milo Moody and John l.. Hockworth are the nominees for democratic represent atives to the constitutinal convention. The continued high waters have caused much delay in getting returns Both nominees are lawyers. MT.

lower on the week. Nearly every other grade of pig iron Is higher on the week, however. Steel billets and rails are firmly held and nearly all classes of finished ma terial are higher, refiecting the carrier ad- vances in the cruder forms.
 The boot and shoe situation with jobbers is quite encouraging; hides, though dull, are firm, and the same Is true of leather, whne the current demand for the finished product keeps manufacturers busy
 Cotton goods retain all their old strength, though somewhat quiter in demand at first hands, while the talk of combination in the manufacturing branch of trade has seFi- ously unsettled the price of raw wool, which is weak and lower. Sugar reflects steady buying in practically unchanged quotations. Lumber is feeling the stimulus of the approach of active building opera tions and white pine and spruce are higher at nearly all markets, with hard woods sympa thizing and even outstripping these classes of material in their upward move- ment.
 The Outlook Satisfactory
 1ndustrially, the situation is satisfactory. While actual advances in wages are as yet confined to the cotton manufacturing and the iron and steel industries, the current of work in other lines Is running full and the number of operatives who have gained some advantage from the activity in all industrial lines totals easily $5OO,OOO.
 Wheat, including flour, shipments for the week aggregate 3,746,761 bushels against A. 114,O46 bushels last week and S,S96, SIS bush els last year.
 Since July this season the export of wheat aggregated 1SO,972562 bushels against 176,516,SSS bushels last year.
 Corn exports for the week aggregate B. 699,629 bushels against 42l1 1926 bushels last week and 4,496 257 bushels last year.
 Since July 10 this season corn exports aggregate 126, 8,52 bushels against 1a ,OS3,- g26 bushels during the same period year ago.
 Business failures for the week number only 1S2 as against 205 last week and 2l5 for the same week last year.
