Kentucky Oil Stock
Scars with Promise
Of Big Bonus on Way

NEW YORK, March 2&-Another out
growth Of the recent dissolution Of the
Standard OIL company Of New Jersey into
thirty odd constituents was the rise to-
day OF shares Of the Stanard Oil OF Ken
lucky to the unprecedented price Of 81 900
share. The stock closed yesterday at
$50 bid, opened today at 800. advanced
on sales of some fifty to sixty shares to
$500 and then In small lots. aggregating
perhaps thirty shares. rose to N.O0o.
From that figure II dropped abruptly in
the early afternoon to $50 with the last
actual sales at $500
The stocks low price yesterday was
$40 and a few days ago II was offered at
$50. For some unexplained reason n
short interest had been created at around
800 and some OF the shorts were run IN
today when the stock scared up to u.ooo
II is believed. however. that the advance
represented something more than a mere
squeeze The company now has cap
ital OF tl.0O00o, which may be increased
to S.0oo,ooo the difference going to share
holders as a stock bonus" Aside from
very small floating supply practically
all the shares are owned by interests

Find Seed Corn Poor
Over Whole Country

WASHINGTON, March 2S.-Because OF
The poor corn crop last year. the bureau
Of plant industry OF the Department OF
Agriculture, has tested samples from all
over the country and found a very low
average Of termination. DR.. B. T. Gal
loway. chief Of the bureau, advises the
farmers OF the country TO be particularly
careful about their planting this spring.
I'VE tested nearly 1000 samples" he
said Today. " and found that the average
termination was only 81 per cent, whereas
1t should have been 80; and the average
OF termination was lowest In the large
corn growing states.
Il advise the farmers to plant the best
seed they can get. They should use Sc
lected corn on the cob, each ear OF which
has been tested for termination; and II
they have to use sheiled corn should test
1t and plant enough. depending on the
percentage Of termination to insure a
good stand.

Return to work-Goveramen
Arrangcs to Protect All

LONDON. March ss.-The House OF
Lords this afternoon passed the miners
minimum wage bill without amendment.
Il has now only to receive the royal
assent.
Premier Asquith issued an appeal TO
the miners to accept the minimum
wage bill. which he said would effect
largely what they had fought for. The
premier made this appeal IN speech TO
the liberal members Of the House OF
Commons.
The premier said that he recognized
that the agitation as far as the great
bulk Of the men were concerned, was a
disinterested movement Now that their
grievances had been removed by the es-
tablishment Of the principle Of a mini
mum wage. with machinery which could
be trusted TO fix reasonable rates. he
strongly appealed IN the name of the
whole community for the resumption Of
normal Industrial conditions. He hoped
that Industrial peace and contentment
were now In sight.
End OF strike seems Near.
The end Of the coal strike which has so
sorely affected the people OF the
United Kingdom during the last four
weeks is believed TO be at hand. No
doubt appears to exist in the minds Of
many people that the majority of the
100000 miners who left their work on
March are anxious TO return to the
pits and when the occasion offers Will
vote In favor Of the proposal to resume.
Most OF them, II is believed, would even
return TO the pits Immediately. but in
oppose any action until the vote which
has been called for on the question OF
resumption OF work or continuance OF
the strike has been cast and counted.
II is these who are causing the trouble
which necessltated the dispatch yesterday
OF troops to Chirk. in Wales. Where work
had been proceeding for some days In the
Brylkinslle colleries. and to cannock

In the great military camp at Alder
shot 1000 soldiers are held In readiness

Of protecting the mines is the heavy
duty facing the country Of relieving the
terrible destitution caused everywhere by

parts Of the country. The settiemen.
