LONDON, January 22.-There was no
broadening of the stock exchange markets
in the late afternoon. Domestic issues
moved within narrow limits and showed
confused changes of prices. Canadian
Pacific failed to rally. and Grand Trunks
suffered a decline Of one-quarter to one
half per cent. The weakness in this direc-
ton was due to apprehension Of traffic
losses from snowfall, and also to rumors
Of some financial embarrassment in To-
ronto.
American railway shares were some
what heavy at the official close. Prices
became harder on the curb, led by rally
Of one-quarter per cent In United States
Steel Rio Tintos ended with net gain
Of u at 72as. The continental bourses
were Irregular.

DULL TRADING TODAY
Volume of Business, However,

Large Majority of List Fluctuated
Irregularly.

Small Number of Stocks Advanced
Quite Sharply-U. S. Steel De-
cidedly Strong.

Snecial Disnatch To The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, January oo-A small num-
her of stocks advanced quite sharply in
today's stock market. but the large ma
jority of the list fluctuated irregularly
and within very small limits. Included
in the first class were American Cotton
Oil, National Lead, the Republic Steel
shares and Sugar Refining. The pronounc-
ed rise in the Iast-named stock was not
specifically accounted for but many have
been in connection with the application
of the company to the stock exchange
authorities to place the shares upon the
regular list
The strength of American Cotton Oil
and the stocks of the same general CLASH
fication was again accompanied by re-
ports that general amagamation of
these properties was under way. As was
the case yesterday, the United States
Steel shares were decidedly strong al
though they failed to repeat the striking
advances then scored.
Local fractions Dull.
The local traction issues were generally
dull and reactionary \ rather sharp
break in Mackay Company's common
stock failed to elicit any but technical
explanations.
Transactions in the railway list de-
Neloped no features of interest or of APP
parent significance The fluctuations in
that department were highly irregular
and were not to be accounted for by any
actual Developments relating to one
stock or another.
Canadian Pacific was rather notably
weak. possibly in sympathy with the
tendencies of that property in the Lon
don stock market. The latter was
about as featureess as that in New York
and very little was done here for foreign
accounts.
Notwithstanding the dull ASPECT Of the
trading, the volume of business was con-
siderably in excess of yesterdays total
transactions. At the same time the deal
ings were of highly professional char
acter and the business of the rank and
file of commission houses well nigh
at StandStill.
Little Interest in Bank Statement.
Little interest was expressed in the out
look for tomorrow's bank statement, and
1t appeared to be the common expectation
that the showing would be in line with
those submitted during the past few
weeks
That is to say, the prospect indicated a
sufficiently large increase i'll the loan and
deposit accounts as TO offset the gains in
cash which the banks made I'm their
transactions with the local subtreasury
and the interior
Money market and foreign exchange cir
Cumstances exhibited no noteworthy
changes. 1t could scarcely be said that
the prominence accorded in this morning S
question was factor in the days stock
market, as had ii been the dealings
would scarcely have exhibited the rather
negative tendencies mentioned.

Don't Forget the salt.

Common sense and many expert
ments teach that the proper way TO
salt cattle is to provide it in sufficient
quantity and make it accessible to
them at all times. Salt should be
placed at least in two different points
where the cattle run and they should
be allowed to get it whenever they
want it. An animal will eat not more
than is absolutely necessary in this
way. While. if salt is given at infre-
quent intervals, cattle, and particular
ly fattening steers, are apt to eat
much more than is good for them.
Salt Is an important factor in prepar-
Ing cattle for market and the same
care should be given to it's use as to
feeding.

When to Set Trees.

Peaches and apricot trees should
be set when one or two years old
FROM the bud When the trees are set
the roots are pruned no more than is
necessary to put them in good condi-
ton and the top is pruned to almost
a straight stock. The side branches
are cut back to two or three buds
and the central stem is cut back to
not more than two or three feet in
length. The frame work of the tree
should be formed about the same as
that of the apple tree. The trees
should be pruned each year to obtain
the best fruit. The trees nearly al
ways set more fruit than they can ma
ture, and unless the fruit is thinned
it will be small and of poor quality.
The trees should be headed in during
the winter each year This heading in
consist of cutting back the longest
and strongest branches and usually
aims to remove about one-half of last
years wood. This serves the purpose
of thinning the fruit and keeping the
tree within bounds.

Alfalfa as Pasturaoe.

AS to the amount OF pasturage or
the number of hogs alfalfa win carry
per acre without injury to the crop,
the estimates given by farmers vary
considerably, depending on the kind of
soil, the fertility of the land, and the
size of the hogs pastured. The fol-
lowing, however, is safe average
estimate as given by conservative men
who have had much experience. River
valley and creek bottom land well
set in alfalfa will carry from 10 to 20
head per acre of so to 1875 pound hogs.
Upland of fair avera~o fertility will
support from to 10 lid of the same
kind of hogs. The e as fields that
have supported % head or acre all
through the season for a number of
years, and are still in good condition,
and there are other fields that will
not furnish pasture for more than
head per acre; but these are extremes.
When a field is used only for pasture
it is better to divide il into several
lots and move the hogs from one 10
the other as occasion requires. The
amount of pasture furnished by rye is
about three-fourths that furnished by
alfalfa, its carrying capacity being
estimated at 6 to II hogs per acre.
One man reports having pastured so
head of hogs on acres during fall,
winter and spring, then harvesting 20
bushels of grain per acre. In the
southern part of this region rye would
be an excellent cover crop for the
soil during the winter. Besides fur
nishing pasture, it could be turned |
under as green manure to add hui
mus to the soil.-Farmer' Bulletin
