FINANCIAL & COMMERCIAL


c. T. Hudson and Company stated
at noon:
"a low-priced stock which commends
itself TO us on future possibilities is
Vir. Carolina Chemical, which was
around 81 to-day. The company Is
sure to benefit from sale of fertilizer
on a much larger scale because OF in
creased acreage Of cotton and other
staples. The extremely high price Of
cotton-witb the May fu,-re above 16
cts. to-day, assures a large acreage
next year. But in buying any stock
now, it would be wise 70 wait for some
recession and no to buy on firm spots"
f. ID. LaclSey and Company states
to-day:
"The advance I'm Reading Second

panied by talk of retirement of the

'Alany a time" said a policeman in
the southern part of the city, ''when
arresting men, especially intoxicated
men, 1 have been told by my prisoner
that he was a taxpayer and that he
helped pay my wages.
II always regarded this sort of back
talk as merely drunken insolencc and

about a year ago. when ] bought "A

renter or roomer never understands,
and my idea is that every man I'm the

expense makes him a better citizen.

BALTIMORE, Dec. 23-Almost on the
eve Of the opening Of the Legislature,
Governor Austin T.. Crothors, Mary

ulous escape from instant death or
serious injury.
II was learned to-day that after n
long consultation with his private sec
retary and advisors in this city pre-
paratory TO putting the finishing
touches on his message to the General
Assembly, tho governor left his office,
and as he is somewhat noted as a
pedestrian. started on foot TO the h.
and O. station. to take n train for the
executive mansion at Annapolis.
Walking along Hopkins Place, the
center of Baltimore's dry goods dis
trict the governor was startled by a
bullet whizzing by his face. Becom-
ing alarmed he turned about and ex-
claimed. us that somebody shooting
at me? am Governor Crothers."
To-day the chief executive was loath
10 discuss the incident. but said:
81 was on my way TO Camden sta
tion. Tho report Of the pistol sounded.
The shot passed me, but IL startled
me 10 such degree that I made an
exclamation, but don't remember what
it was"
When IL became known here to-day
that the shot had been fired In the path
Of the governor, a rumor rapidly gain
cd wide circulation that an attempt
had been made to aasassinate Gov
ernor Crothers.
The trouble was subsequently found
TO be a brawl between negro truck
men. Clarence Denmids, negro. fired
q shot at Edward Brockman. another
negro. because OF "A quarrel over the
loading OF a truck. Denmids was
held in 81. 500 bail to-day.

FAITH A PRACTICAL NECESSITY.

While faith In the future benefits Of

OF manufacturer and OF the merchant
who must advertise before he Will real
lie an Increase In sales, II is especially
true Of the stock raiser and tiller of
the soil. The former must of necessity
forecast the future and have faith that
money invested In high priced and val
liable sires will come back TO him In
the shape OF increased prices for the
stock he In able TO produce, while the
latter must entertain a Ike faith in In.

initial cost and outlay In both-in fnct,

but In the long view II is not so. when
subsequent gains covering a period Of
months or years are taken into account
Many folks make virtual failure OF
life In a material way. or at least plod

ment. simply because this matter OF

Some OF the overzealous promoters of
beet sugar factory which has lately
been erected In northern Iowa have
had articles published to the effect that
the growing NJ beets enriched rather
than impoverished the land. 1t would
he matter for Generalization II this
statement were only true. but the fact
OF the matter ~ II Is not. II Is true
that beets do not pull on the fertility
Of the soil quite as heavily as do
onions. wheat or oats. this being due to
the fact that. like corn. they draw their
sugar content largely from the air and
sunshine But to assert that they en-
rich the soil. as do clovers. IL entirely
erroneous and In the end viii be Of no
ad 'antage to the beet raising industry.
A man not posted might be induced to
grow beets because of the above claim.
but his own experience with them
would In very short time disprove the
claim

CLOVER ALONE NO pAnAcgA.

An important fact that Is being Civ.
en- emphasis by Professor Cyril @. Hop
kins Of the Illinois agricultural expert
ment station is that the employment
OF clover In crop rotation with
corn and oats, while keeping up the
supply Of nitrogen In the soil through
tho service which the legume renders,
Will result IN robbing the soil Of phos-
phorus unless stock raising or dairying
Is followed and the major portion Of
the fertiliZing elements In the grain
and grasses fed returned to the soil In
the shape Of fertilizers. II will be
well for those who have looked upon
tho growing Of clover as sort Of
panacea to cure the wrongs inflicted
by soil robbing system OF agricul-
ture 10 remember that this ia only a
partial remedy and must be coupled
with stock raising or dairylng II the
cure OF the soil IL to be complete.
