ket outlook, Another cause of disappoint- ment in the return of E. H. Hartman to his office was that the much dis cussed financial readjustment plan was not immediately forthcoming. Rumor and gossip over this plan have ranged over a very wide field with unfailing stimulation upon Hartman stocks.
 The whetted speculative appetite for sensation found nothing to satisfy in the few guarded expressions allowed for pub lie consumption by the Union Pacific head. Reading shared with the Harri- mans the office of sustaining force in the market and the motives for its con- tinued advance remained underlined. One obvious reason for weakness in Great Northern was the fact that its $6OO0O,OOO of new stock comes into its rights to dividend for the coming fiscal year. As the gross earnings of the company for the first two months of the fiscal year have fallen nearly 25 per cent below those for the two similar months last year, the proportion of. dividend requirements to earnings is still further distorted Northern Pacific's $93,O00,0O0 new stock and St. Pauls $1O0,O0O.O0O come into their dividend rights at a somewhat later pe- riod. but the analogy of their position may explain the special sympathy of their price movement with that of Great Northern. Rumors of liquidation of large estate holding in Great Northern preferred were without confirmation.
 The money market was easy and les sened discount rate on New York ex- change at Chicago indicated a diminish flow of currency in that direction. For eign exchange was firm, however. and discount rates advanced in Paris and Berlin. The grain and cotton markets declined in response to reports of the breaking of the drought, but the weather bureaus weekly bulletin put a rather serious phase on the extent of the news for this relief.

Hubbard Bros. & Co.'s Letter.

New York, September 15.-(Special.) At the opening and during the forenoon the temper of the market was bearish, but subsequent to the decline came con- siderable Wall street buying orders, which caused a marked change of base with the desire to cover earlier shorts. The recent fear of damage from the coast storm has gone, but the market needs fur ther stimulus to move out of the rut of present prices. The recent buying is local and without other significance

Food Value of Eggs.

Popular belief to the contrary,
there is no difference in the nutritive
qualities Of eggs with dark shells
and those with light Their flavor
is affected by the food of the fowl
for good or for evil. Exhaustive ex-
periments' by well-equipped investi-
gators prove that the egg deserves
its reputation as an easily assimilated
and highly nutritious food, if eaten
raw or lightly cooked. Such expert
ments also show that eggs at twelve
cents dozen are a cheap source of
nutrients; at sixteen cents somewhat
expensive, and at twenty-five cents
and over highly extravagant.
The basis of comparison was the
market prices of standard flesh foods
considered in relation to their nutri-
tive elements. But there is physi.
illogical constituent of eggs which is
OF great value, yet it defies the
search of the scientist or the inquisi-
ton Of the statistician, and that is
their palatability, Unless a food,
however rich in proteins, is relished,
1t loses much Of its value, while, per
contra, less chemically desirable
food that is enjoyed becomes valu-
able by reason of chat fact. South

test coins that were experimental
with by the officials in the oldenl
times. These coins are sinilar to
Chinese money, each containing ali
hole in the centre that was filed with!
various kinds of metal to bring up
the value of the coin. A careful
search is also being male for the
cornerstone, which it is expected Will
contain number of interesting rel
les. Mr.. Stewart is an enthusiastic,

which he intends to present the COM

Modern Methods that Are HeIpful to
Farmer, Fruit Grower and EtOckman.

Weighed the corn and measured the
land as did they would agree with
me that twenty tons per acre Is as
much ensilage as can usually be made
under the most favorable conditions,
and there Is more corn which makes
ten tons or less than makes twenty
tons.
The corn crop is the place for the
homemade manures, and when one
makes enough to cover his corn field
he will not need to buy any CONNER
eial fertilizers except phosphoric acid
and potash, and these only on the
legume crops of peas or clover. 1t
Is not the actual yield Of corn or en-
silage per acre that pays, but the
yield that is made in the most prac-
teal and economical way. Any one
can make a big crop of corn on a
small piece Of land If no regard is
paid to the cost, but the farmer who
lis dependent on his farming for
living must keep as wide margin
as possible between cost and selling
value OF sale crop.-W. f. Massey,
in the Country Gentleman.
