LONDON STOCK EXCHANGE
RESUMES OPERATIONS

London, Jan. 4.-The London stock
exchange re-opened for business to-
day after having been closed on ac-
count of the war since July 80. Sc
we're restrictions were placed upon
trading in order to prevent anything
approaching panic selling or the un-
loading of securities by hostile coun-
tries.
The general opinion that the re-
strictions to trading would curtail
business to a considerable extent was
borne out during the first half hour.
Not a single bargain occurred In
Americans, and only few of these
securities appeared The war loan
was marked at "a SIS and then at
"a Is. India 3 1-2 per cents were
quoted at SO is and Rio Tintos nom
inally at 81. Union Pacifics were

RANGE FIRE SWEPT
VAST AREA IN
RANCH DISTRICT

Whipped by high wind range
threatened serious destruction to
Hoehne and Model and settlements
along the Apishapa. The fire which
started late in the afternoon ragged
until morning, covered zig gag
course about three miles wide over
an area of about ten miles. Forum
ately the fire did not reach ranch
houses or buildings but vast acre
age of range and timber was burned.
Great CONSERVATION was caused by
the fire and residents of the entire
mon in its. path.
The red glare could be seen dis
tinctly from the tall buildings in
Trinidad. The grass and timber be-
ing very dry was good feeder for
the flames. The Model properties
were menaced for time but a veer-
ing of the wind swept the wall OF
fire in another angle of direction.
AS near as can be learned the fire
started about six miles north of the
pasture owned by DR.. Lee on the
Apishapa. A strong wind from the
north swept the flames in leaps and
bounds, dry weeds and the heavy
vegetation forming the neuclus o.
flames six feet high and at places ex
tending for three miles in width. IT
is thought that the total area burned
will probably reach distance OF
eight miles in length and it scourse
is trailed by a zigzag space of land
devoid of grass and hay.
All of the ranchers in the Apisha-
pa, Model and Sunflower valleys and
their help rallied to form a fire
fighting force OF nearly 100 people
Owing to the rapidity and the ex-
tent of the surface covered it was
Impossible to concentrate the entire
force at any point. At the Ed West
ranch, which for time was in the
path of the flames. the ranch force
fought the fire for several hours. 4
turn in the direction of the wind
saved this property. From Hoehne
the flames could be seen coming
from the north from the direction OF
the Apishapa and through the hog
back and on toward the town. East
of Ludlow and Barnes the flames
were plainly visible in the vicinity
east of the Black Hills.

The European war. according to
specialists in the United States De-
partment of Agriculture, affords the
American housewife an excellent OPP
portunity to become better ucquaint-
ed with n very useful native product
which has hitherto suffered some
what from popular prejudice. By
using cotton seed instead of olive oil.
Americans can not only save them
selves money. but can benefit South
ern cotton growers suffering from
the interru 3tion OF their normal en-
port trade. In the year ending June
30, 1918, nearly 100000 worth
of cotton seed products was shipped
10 Europe. Much of this was in the
form of cotton seed meal, the stock
feeding value of which to farmers is
not yet thoroughly appreciated in
This country. The remainder Is in
the form of oils and fats used fol
cooking and domestic purposes. The
latter class of products must now, tc
great extent at least, be consumed
in this country or not at all.
Hitherto there has been wide
spread belief that cotton seed oil was
used chiefly to counterfeit or initiate
olive oil. This has unquestiOnably
resulted in a prejudic which has
done much to prevent cotton seed oil
From being judged on its own merits
As a matter of fact, il is fully as nu-
tritive as olive oil. and, on account
Of its bland flavor. is actually pre-.
ferred by many II lacks, of course
the distinctive olive flavor whicl
many persons. especially the Italians
find desirabl Italians, indeed, ar,
frequently not satisfied with the fla
Yor of the highest-grade virgin div
oil, but prefer the poorer product de
rived from a second pressing OF the
fruit.
!. Those who prefer their food les,
highly seasoned will find cotton seet
oil pleasant in French dressing
salads. In mayonnaise dressing
where mustard or other condiment'
ore used. the cotton seed oil give
the dressing n rich, creamy taste.
The great advantage of cotton see,
oil, however. is, of course, its cheap
ness. 1t always has been muci
cheaper than the best quality of i'm
ported olive oil. and now that tho
importation of olive oil is interferet
with, the difference in the price o
the two oils will probably be greater
than ever. The lower cost of tho
American cotton seed oil is in itsel
a strong argument for its more com
mon use. Another is found in thu
fact that improvements in the process
of manufacture have resulted il
making the modern cotton seed :abl
products very different today from
those of even few years ago. Then
the oil was objected to because il
was rather strongly Favored anC
dark colored. Modern processes have
removed these objections, and nov
yield clear. rich oils free from odol
and mild and pleasing in flavor.
In this country edible cotton see'
oil is manufactured almost cntirei,
in large establishments which make
use of sanitary machinery. In this
