From a well informed source comes
this view of the Southern Pacific stock
issue:
While the disposition is to suspend
sentence" on this Southern Pacific mat
tci until details are at hand. it is never
thCless simple enough to figure il ont
from the standpoint of the common
stakeholder. He holds, let us say. 100
shares Of the common stock. which is
now valued at $4,000. He is asked to
pay 5000 more for his twenty shares
of new preferred. making his outlay
$500. which yields him an income Of
$40 on his 7 per cent preferred. But
$40 on his total outlay of $500 is but
a trife over , peT cent, and even that
small return Is contingent upon the
Company's ability to earn il, while an
additional 100000 900 of preferred stock
yet remain to be issued. There Is not a
dividend paying stock On the list that
does not yield a larger return than 2
per cent. and the bond market goes
Logging with bargains vastly more at
tractive- Trust companies n savings
J banks offer much more attractive rates
of interest than this 2 per cent which is
now offered Southern Pacific ~stocShold-
ers II they are willing to pay for IL and
take chances on the future.
II IS no wonder London recOi}s this
morning and sends a quotation Of Is for
Southern Pacific. Forty is dear FOR u.
Yet. with these facts in mind. I have
no doubt that the bankers who bring out
the scheme. will do all in their power
10 make the new preferred look attraC-
tive. while the old common may easily
become oversold and rally accordingly.
But II the circular bears out the COM
mon acceptance Of this new ~fnanCier-
ing. there can be no doubt of the ulti-
mate price TO which Southern Pacific
will fall. The whole scheme is very
disheartening 20 Southern Pacific share
holders. They have held on through
thick and thin. patiently watching the
milking process TO which the property
was being subjected by the Union Pa
cifc. yet firm in their belief in the un-
DERIVING value. which their holdings rep
resented. And now they find a perpetual
Z per cent fixed charge thrust ahead OF
them on an avalanche Of stock which
begins with 100000. and may run uT

NURSING MOTHERS

"A richer milk than milk -"
is good food for nursing
mothers. SCOTS Emulsion is
the rich cream of cod liver
oil, and contains ten times as
much cream as milk does. T ,
The nursing mother must
eat with the purpose of pro-
ducing good, nourishing milk
for her baby. A little SCOTS
Emulsion is often a very wise
addition to her daily diet. If
through nervousness or weak
ness her milk is a failure,
SCOTS Emulsion will help
make it a success.
The baby gets the benefit,
too, when the mother takes
SCOTS Emulsion. The same
remedy brings new strength
and nourishment to both.
