GOSSIP CAUSES SLUMP.

Heavy Decline in Price OF Number
of Leading Stocks.
New York, Oct 12.-The stock mar
ket opened very weak, a number of
leading stocks selling down to, about
the level of the panic of last March.
The gossip of, the financial district in
explanation Of this decline was based
on a rumor that E. H. Hartman had
given orders for sweeping reductions
on every railroad line which he con-
trolls. Mr.. Hartman gave out de-
NAL that any such orders had been
given.

The Central Creamery Plant

There is a field for it, and it it
would only keep its place no reason
able man could offer an objection to
t. saws Elk. Slater in the Northwest
ern Aericulturist. In the sparsely
settled sections of the Northwest the
only good market for dairy products
is offered by the central cnurnlng
plants. The introduction OF the hand
separator made the shipping OF cream
possible and the central plant is the
natural result. Even in the territory
of a local creamery the competition OF
a central plant is a good thing If the
competition is legitimate. The me-
thods often employed, however, by
the central plants to tease business
awav from the local cresmeries are re-
prehensible. The test and price are
often raised to point where the buy
or loses on each can of cream shipped.
BE gives away his wholegame in en-
ployine such methods. It is most
apparent that he expects to get his
money back at some time in the tu'
tuIe.
The writer had occasion to visit the
state of Nebraska recently, where
practically the whole creamery bust
ness is operated on the big central
plan. The average price paid for but
ter fat for the month of June was
about 10 cents per pound. The aver
age price paid in Minnesota was about
"a cents per pound of butter fat
This extra 6 cents per pound repre-
sents every cent of profit there is in
the dairy business. It is difficult to
cay what the future OF Nebraska dai:
rying will be, but We can't see what
inducement there is in the business
for the farmers of that state. They
will probably eventually erect :-thei'
own creameries, and until they d.
that there are no bright prospects
ahead of them.
When q comparison is made 1t il
very apparent that the milk and cream
producers of a state where tho bust
ness is not in control of one man or ,
Get of men are to be congratulated

The appearance of Sara Mcdonald Sheridan and Laura Mehrtens tonight is an occurrence of the greatest inter- est to those who enjoy beautiful mu- sic.
 Mrs. SheridanA Is a Southern woman who naturally possessed the greatest of vocal talent and gifts. Adding to this. she has studied, and cultivated her marvellous contra1to voice under Jean de Reszke, Pierre Steinbach and the very best masters in New York, Lon- don, Paris. Berlin and other music cen- tres on the continent.
 Her beautiful voice. charming per sonality and appearance never fails to captivate her audience.
 Mrs. Mehrtens is acknowledged one of the most charming and gifted plan ists on the American continent. Her style and selections are always partic- ularly pleasing to the average music lover and instead of being so highly artistic that they can't enjoy 1t. 1t is just the reverse. While her method and technique are faultless, her selec- tion and rendition is such as to appeal to the largest number of people.
