ORIGIN Of "Watered Stock,

The expression, "watered stock, Z"
which describes so well the expansion
value of the property, originated, it is
said, iii connection with Daniel Drew,
who was once the wealthiest and most
unique manipulation in Wall street.
Drew had been a drover in his young
er days, and it was said of him that,
before selling his cattle in the market
he would first give them large quanti-
ties of salt to make them thirsty, and
then provide them with all the water
they could drink. In this way their
weight was greatly increased, and the
purchaser was buying "watered
stock. "-Leslie's Weekly.
