LEADING UNDERTAKERS
PROMPT AMBULANCE SERVICE.
AIM BLOW AT THE
"WALLINGFoRDs."

New York, Feb. 19.-Prominent
stock brokers from many of the prin-
cipal cities of the United States and
Canada assembled at the Waldorf-As-
toria today to complete the organiza-
tion of the International Brokers' AS
sociation. The brokers are alive to
the fact that the time has arrived
when it is advisable to band together
for the protection of their mutual in
terests. They believe that the recent
slump in the legitimate brokerage bust
ness and the suspicion with which a
large part of the public has come to
regard the dealing in stocks is directly
attributable to the operations of the
get-rich-quick schemers who call
themselves brokers and deal, largely
by mail, in securities that are abso-
lutely worthless.
The International Brokers' Associa
to put out of business the swindlers
who have victimized the public to the
extent of $4OO,00O,OOO within the past
few years. The members of the as
ISOLATION will use the association name
on their letterheads, and if the hopes
of its promoters that practically all
legitimate brokers will become mem
bers are realized, the presumption will
be that in dealing with a broker who
is not a member that the customer
should move with caution. 1t is also
expected that by eliminating the
frauds, legitimate brokers will be able
to build up their mail business to a
great extent.

A German has invented a rife for
use under water. 1t will prove Of val
liable aid to divers, who heretofore
have had little way of defending them
selves against sharks and other sea
monsters. The strange part of this
rife is that it fires not bullets but
water; but the water is driven with
such force, it penetrates with the de-
structive power of lead. The inven-
tor asserts that the jet of water ex-
PEELED by this rifle will pierce an ar

periments with the rifle have born

theh the transformation has been re-
markable
u very neat attractive and con-
venient dwelling has been completed
Inc premises around this house are
being rapidly put in shape and in a
rev days all of the outside fences and
cross fences for the entire farm will
be completed A large, we'll built
barn, poultry house and other need
ed buildings have been put up, and
tne regulation coat of red paint has
been applied to all these buildings.
All roofs are shingled and have been
painted green.
The farm is divided into two 40
acre tracts, one of which is for farm
crops, and the residence plot and the
other is for a pasture for the high
bred stock now being put on the farm
With the idea of having nothing but
the best of live stock, high bred hogs
and cattle are being used. Poland
China and Berkshire breeds of hogs
and Hereford cattle are to form the
basis in the stock raising on this
place.
The fences erected are all made of
woven wire, with two strands of
barbed wire at the top of all outside
fences. The posts are of strictly all
heart pine, set full two feet in the
ground, and the fence lines are being
run as straight as an arrow
All stumps and roots are being re-
moved from the forty acres intended
now for farming and the land is being
gotten ready for planting. That por-
ton to be used for pasture will be
cleared of stumps during the summer
Knowing that farm conditions vary
in different localities, Cummings &
Co. decided to secure as manager OF
their farm operations, man of
experience, who is familiar with local
Weather anu lduu COuulllOuS, anu
whose work would be demonstrative
rather than experimental. The firm
consider themselves fortunate in hav
ing been able to secure the services Of
J. w. Dill, who has had three years
experience under Mr.. Ferrie, the di
rector of the Mcneil experiment sta
ton, and who is highly endorsed b!
Mr.. Ferris.
In addition to directing the worl
on this demonstration farm Mr.. Dill
will give expert advice to all who set
tie on the Newman lands which ar,
handled by Cummings & Co.
The change already wrought on thi
SO-acre tract of land is marked, blu
the plans outlined by Messrs. Heriot
and Dill guarantee beautiful, mode
farm that will be a joy to look upol
in the next few months.

Since February bank statements in
New York have shown continued loss
in cash, a condition that has over
Swallowed all other financial consid-
erations in the metropolis. This re-
suit is attributed largely to the heavy
drain of gold from this country, mainly
to France and Argentina but early
this week the later unexpected heavy
loss of cash has been taken as an In
dication that some other influence
than the outgo Of gold has contributed
to the drain of cash from the New
York banks. Bankers are inclined to
account for the current condition by
the statement that there has been a
renewed demand for funds from the
interior, notably from the Southwest
Up to the end of last and the begin
ming of the present week bankers in
New York held to the view that there
was a tendency to the contraction Of
credit. The dullness of the security
markets had a weakening effect on
call money rates, though the decline
had not been so serious as to estab-
fish a regular basis.

has increased the demand for call

According to Government reports
trade between the United States and
the Orient in 1912 was the largest ever
recorded in both exports and imports.
One striking characteristic of growth
in 1912 relates to the South's great
staple-cotton, and shows that India
and China followed the example Of
Japan in the purchase of American
cotton. Japan is a large importer of
cotton from the United States. The
movement thitherward last year ex-
ceeded any previous record, having
been 2O9 million pounds against 142
million pounds in 1911.

 Although Pelkey has been quoted as saying that he will re-enter the ring, in spite of his announced intention to retire after his unfortunate experience at Calgary, Pelkey cannot be regarded as the champion in all seriousness. His showing prior to his fight with Me Carty would not warrant it. He can be regarded only in the light of a con- tender who may at some future date be given a chance to prove his worth or his claim.
