STOCK MARKET Is
 MIXED, UNCERTAIN
EARLY DECLINE FOLLOWED BY SOME RECOVERY, BUT PROM UENCE OF MINOR STOCKS IS DEPRESSING FACToR.

NBw YORK, November l6.--Mixed views over the speculative outlook found their reflection in the spotty and somewhat irregular tone of tho stock market today. The early decline caused by selling orders gave place to recov- cry later. The upward movement was constrained and languid by comparison with las. week s vigorous movements, and the prominence of stocks of minor grade in the rise left it with less con vineing power on sentiment toward the market.

moro is heard of tho inability of the Amslgamated properties to produce cop per cheap enough to compete success fully with other mines moro favorsbly situated, so that 1t may have been con sidered absolutely necessary to do some thing to strengthen the compauy's DO sitipn. What effect this invasion of the manufacturing end will have upon tho customers who have bought their sup plies from the United Metals Selling Agency remains to be seen.
 To show how profitable metal mining really is, an exchange makes the fol lowing statement:

A number of these mines have been worked less than ten years, and of tho others number were for several years from 200 to 300 miles from q railroad.

Market News

It is not at all surprising that there should be hull in speculation on the New York stock exchange, after the very heavy trading of last week--ag- gregating upwards of S,000,000 shares for the six daily sessions--and the vio- lent fluctuations in tho prices of a number of the tctive issues. Very often bull campaign culminates in an out burst of reckless speculation such as has been recently witnessed. However, the market has shown great residence, and judging from the fact that those stocks which have led the upward movement for several months were given strong support on last week 's break it would seem to follow that the captains of finance who developed the movement have not surrendered control, that they still have large amount of stocks to dispose of, and that the time for a pronounced reae tion has not yet arrived.
 The absorptive power of the market since the election has been remarkable The public has shown an svidity to buy stocks at the prevailing high level that is surprising, and it is reasonable to conclude that the demand is mol yet satisfied and that after brief rest the upward movement will be resumed
 In view of the very heavy buying of copper the past two weeks and rise of full cent pound in the price of the metal, the position of copper stocks is very strong. Nearly all the important producing companies are ex pected to increase their dividends while some of the newer companies are preparing to enter the dividend paying class, and it looks as though the copper industry were assured of pro longed period of expansion and pros perity.

Tho Age OF sheen.

The age of sheep is very easily
shown by an examination of the teeth.
lamb has the first pair of permanent
front teeth when about 10 months old;
the second pair appears at about is
months; the third pair at % months
and the fourth at about SO to 40
months When the whole of the per-
manent front teeth have appeared the
sheep is in its fourth year. The Meri-
no natures its teeth later than the
other breeds; the Cotswold and South
downs and other highly-improved NUT
ton sheep are some months ahead Of
Il MerinO, but at 4 years every sheep
has its full mouth of teeth. Later
the age is known by the appearance
Of the teeth, which gradually lose their
sharp edges and become worn down
smooth. \ healthy sheep will keep its
teeth good until 10 or y years old,
if the pasture is not unusually bare
and the soil sandy, so as to wear the
teeth excessively.

Japan GETS A NEW ISLAND.
1t Was Previously Unknown and 1t Bid
Fair to Be Wealth Producing.

The japanese report the discovery Of
previously unknown island about 2SC
miles east Of Formosa. The discovery
is somewhat surprising at this late date
The japanese flag has been raised over
it, and the name Nishigawa has been
given TO the island.
\ japanese agent, Mr.. Nishihata, is
very enthusiastic over the discovery. He
says it has great natural wealth.
He found in the waters between the
surrounding flat reef and the shores Of
the island several kinds of marketable
shells and mother of pearl in abundance
There are also ineXhaustible supplies OF
commercial coral; and better still he
found enormous quantities of calcium
phosphate on the reefs, that will afford
the best of artificial fertilizer, and he
thinks the supply is sufficient to keep
miners busy for fifty or sixty years.
As lis vessel approached the island
Mr.. Nishihata saw a cloud Of birds
lowering over it, and he found later that
they were of a species which the Japa-
ncsc call osadori. These birds abound
there in great numbers and are counted
among the valuable resources of the is
land. as there is good market fer their
plumage in Europe, particularly in
France. Trade in these feathers has
already begun, and they are the first OF
the islands resources to be shipped IL
Europe.
The flora is tropical. but the island
seems To he fairly hoalthful. No reptiles
or venomous insects can be found, and
the only quadruped that the island
seems TO possess is a variety of rat
about the size of Il rabbit. This addition
of few score of square miles to the
known land surface Of the earth bids
tar To add a little 10 the world $ wealth.

The value of salt as a manure for
mangels has often been demonstrated
and the demonstration was repeated at
Woburn last season. About fifteen tons
of farmyard manure We're applied to
four plots, and this appeared to be sufii-
cient to produce nearly as much as
could be grown on the soil of the field
One plot had also top-dressing of one
hundredweight Of nitrate of soda which
very slightly increased the yield. Where
one hundredwelght of salt was added
there was a further increase; but where
the quantity of the nitrate was doubled.
without salt, the yield was reduced

feet above the ground. SO that occupants
of the floors above the eighth or ninth

this way, but few flies are persevcring
enough to do this. Some are carried up
in the elevators, but not enough to make
much difference
