NEW YORK, December 2O-With The

showed disposition to wait on the an
nual settlements and financial market:
were slow. although at the close of the
strength.
The Improvement was attributed to the
stimulating influence of developments a,
Washington. Passage of the currency
bill by the Senate marked the virtua
completion of long period of uncertainty
regarding changes to be made in the
country's banking methods. Recon,
amendments to the bill were received with
favor in the financial markets and it was
felt that removal of this factor of un.
certainty would have a beneficial effect
The agreement for dissolution of the
American Telephone and Telegraph Com
pany without recourse to the courts gave
promise OF a Aessening Of disturbances
which have attended enforcement of the
Sherman law.
Money Outlook Not Cheerful.
The hope was expressed that liquidation
of securities had been completed, even
though further trade contraction may
have to be faced. Expectations. of easier
money markets after the turn of the year
were modified by consideration Of the ex-
tent to which postponed requirements may
affect monetary conditions. The bond
market shows few signs of anticipatory
reinvestment demand, although January
disbursements will constitute a record.
Firmness in steel prices takes the form OF
unwillingness to contract for distant pc
RODS rather than growth of new orders.
Mercantile orders are light, but for
prompt delivery, indicating low stocks.

SOME HINTS ON cHINcH BUG
Experience Of Illinois Agricultural Ex-
pertinent Station May Be Of In
terest' to Farmers.

The experience of the Illinois ag-
ricultural experiment station with
chinch bugs discovered in the spring
of 1912. may prove of great value to
farmers who may be troubled by the
pest this year. Last spring the ILL.,
nois station found that the chinch bugs
survived the winter in excellent con-
dition and on April 25 were scattering
on the wing to lay. their eggs. The
escape of the bugs on foot, out of fields
of small grain at harvest time, Is
thought to be best prevented by sur
rounding each field with line of
thick. viscid. road oil, with post holes
beside It some 36 feet apart. Such a
line can be made and kept effective
long enough to catch virtually all the
bugs in a field at minimum expense
of 35 cents mile per day Coal tar
may be used for the purpose where
road oil can be obtained. but it must
be much more frequently renewed to
keep it effective. A well-made dusty
furrow. with post holes In the bottom,
may serve a temporary purpose in
very dry weather. but Is made useless
by rain. Chinch bugs may be killed
on corn. without injury to the plant, by
a tobacco preparation (black-leaf 40)
greatly diluted with weak soapsuds.
