mrl Experimental Station III St. CrolX for

81
When the area of the Experimental Station
has been thus extended it shall maintain its
character as an Agricultural Experimental
Station and it shall aim at supplying to the
planters of the island cane sprouts from good
varieties, as well as good cotton seed in sutfi-
Client quantities and ct reasonable prices
but ut the same time, it shall lay stress on
such an economical working of the station as
will enable it to pay interest and install
ments on the loan granted by this Ordinance
as vel! as on the previous loan granted by
Ordinance Of 14th March 1911.

interest he takes IN every agricultural Qucs-
ton The idea was good, we ought to gra 2
at it. We ali knew, that the soil is getting
more hard to cultivate, only by scientific
help we en- get on, 50 Years agO.n no sclentI-
fc help was needed, but now we need it.
EVERYWHERE else large amounts were spent
on scientific researches OF agricultural mat
tiers. The Station was surely too small, i
could be seen now that in a couple Of years
time more area would be a necessity. He
had some time agO been ont at the Stattol.
and he would say, that the Planters couIst
learn much by going through the Stations
paintings, His opinion was, that we ought
to take the chance now when It offered itself.

GOLD EXPORTS RESUMED.
France starts Eastward Movement
by Taking 12,OOO,OOO.

Gold exports 20 France were RESUMED
yesterday when l-azard Freres shipped
$4,000. 600 in gold Oh LII Lorraine. The
annou ncement came as somewhat of n
surprise to The financial district, for while
there had been talk Of resumption scarcely
any one expected 1t 80 soon.
IL was rumored that owing to Nthe pre-
vailng rate of exchange being hardly
such ~ TO make the transaction profit
able the French banks taking the ship
ment had agreed to pay ten days interest
OH IL while in transit.
Gold exports began just week pre-
vious to this time last year and amounted
to si3.50O.O00. The movement ended on
July 16. 1918. with n total shipped to
Europe and South America Of s6s,ooo. 600.
The fret shipment in the Paris movement
last year was $4.00o000.
During the last few weeks Canada has
been returning gold to this country which
she took some time ago to move her
crops. Paris has been getting gold in
small quantities In London. 1t IL believed
that the present movement TO Paris may
total l5,00O.000 this month, and that
II may continue longer.

ANNUL BOSTON & MAINE PLAN.
Directors Meet Objection to selling
Maine Central Bonds.

BosroN. Jan. 13-The proposed plan of
aiding the Boston and Maine Railroad
to meet its $4,000, 900 short term notes
due on February by the exchange OF
100000 of it's shares Of Maine Central
Railroad stock for bonds OF that road
equal in par value the latter to be sold
for cash, has been annulled.
Morris Mcdonald, president Of both
companies, said to-day:
Counsel representing the Boston and
Maine and the bankers to whom II was
proposed to sell the Maine Central bonds
raised n question az to the authority of
the Maine Central to issue mortgage bonds
for this purpose. so II has been deemed
advisable to proceed no further with this
plan. The Maine Central has, therefore
withdrawn notices sent out for stock
holders meeting In Portland on jan
uary rs.
A pledge OF the Maine Central stock
owned by the parent" road as a basis for
renewing its notes would probably be re-
scented by holders Of Its ti7.O00.OO0 notes
due in June. The other alternative to re-
ownership would seem to be to get an OK
tension OF the notes maturing next month.
