FOR A BETTER BUSINESS DUR
ING THIS YEAR-HooToN G.
WATSON REPORT EIGHT THOU
SAND DOLLAR DEAL.

That tho bond issue, insuring the
construction of a municipal wharf and
telt railroad, has stimulated the real
estate market is the concensus of
opinion among prominent men of the
city, and especially the real estate
dealers. who say that there are signs
already CT nc. witty. Conservative buy
ers have entered the market and have
done so only on the strength of the
bonds being VI ted.
Jas. G. Watson Of Hooton & Watson
yesterday reported that his firm had
closed three small deals during the
past two or three days, totaling nearly
eight thousand dollars. Two of these
sales were absolutely on the strength
of the bond issue, the parties making
the purchases saying they would close
for them provided the bond issue car
ried, and doing so the morning follow
ing the election. The three sales ag-
gregated in exact figures $3.50.

Washington, Jan. 3.-A scandal which
threatens to involve some of Washing
toms most prominent business men and
officials has been sprung by the house
special subcommittee which is inves-
tigating the business methods of the
Commercial Fire Insurance Company
and the First National Fire Insurance
Company, both of which companies
have their headquarters in the District
of Columbia, but which have sold their
stock widely throughout the United
States.
The two insurance companies recent
ly bought the Southern building,
Washington's newest freproof Office
building, tor approximately $1,500, 900.
Within q few days, it is alleged. they
| advertised 1t among their assets at a
value of 100000 and on the strength
of this apparent 100000 increase in
prosperity advanced the price of their
stock. This and a charge that the
companies declared a dividend out OF
receipts from stock sales are under
fire of the house committee.
The names of Robert Wynne post
master general in the Roosevelt ad-
ministration; Justice Ashley NJ. Gould,
of the supreme court of d. c.; Robert
n. Harper, prominent Washington
banker, and others, appear in the pro-
motion literature of the companies.
1t is also charged by Col. Judson,
Z. S. A, one of the governing board of
commissioners of the District, that the

Staunton, Va, Jan. 3.-If 1t is strict
Iy true that a prophet is without honor,
in his native town, then President elect
Woodrow Wilson can never qualify as
a prophet. For here in Staunton, his
birthplace, he is both loved and honor
ed and looked upon as almost akin to
the gods.
The ovation that was given the pres
ident- ELECT on his arrival here last
week fairly indicated the temper Of his
old townsmen. They could not have
treated him better, couldn't have been
more enthusiastic in their welcome.
And Wilson himself was surprised at
the warmth of the greeting.
The old Presbyterian manse, where
Woodrow Wilson was born, is pointed
out as the most interesting and the
most hallowed spot In town. Staun
tonites believe that some day pilgrims
will travel here from afar and wide to
see this old home, just as they now
Journey long distances to see the JEFF
ferson home at Monticello and the
Washington home at Mt. Vernon. And
it pleases the vanity of their town as
Stunning an importance to great.
But whether the rest of the world pays
homage to Wilson or not, the good peo-
pie of his native town declare he will
always hold a warm place in their
hearts.

soLIDIFYING THE SOIL
Packing Has Appreciate Effect
Upon Moisture Movement.
Row Of Capillary Water 10 Increased
by Reducing Spaces Between Soil
Grains-OrdInary Flat Roll
er May Be Used.

(By L. D. wALDRON, Superintendent
Dickinson. N. d., Sub-Station).
Packing or solidifying the soil has
a very appreciate effect upon the
movement of the soil moisture. In
the movement of capillary water it is
absolutely necessary that the soil par
ticles be very close together. The
flow of capillary water is increased
by reducing the spaces between the
soil grains or by packing the soil.
King iaae shown that with the uss
Of an ordinary fat roller, the mois
ture of the soil may be affected to the
depth of 81 inches. The first effect OF
rolling, by increasing the capillary
movement of water, is to cause the
upper layer of soil to become wetter
and the lower layers to become drier.
If, after rolling, the surface Of the
ground is allowed to remain firm, the
movement of the water continues un.
til the whole soil column becomes
drier than it was before rolling. Roll.
ing the soil, then, increases the sur
face moisture at the expense of the
moisture In the deeper layers. and
finally decreases the moisture in the
entire column.
The practice Is only allowable in
| semi-arid regions when moisture
from the sub-surface can be spared
for the use Of the top surface or
