One of the largest crowds that ever

Country Store. Ralph Wickstrom took
the role of the country store keeper
and with the help of Miss Nina Stra-
lee read off the numbers of the tickets
who drew the prizes. There were
many lucky people present who won
prizes all the way from pair of pink
silk stockings to a sack Of flour. Some
of the gifts were very suitable to the
recipients while other were rather on.

them had a wife or husband to whom
it would be very acceptable. The
prominent business men of the town
all contributed to the store to make it
a success which from the standpoint OF
everybody was great success. The
pictures shown were extraordinarily
good, especially the serial, "Zudora"
which is fascinating.

Catarrh of the Internal Organs

Mr.. James NJ. Powell, No. 1G2o w.
Walnut St., Rosedale, Kansas, writes:
"About four years ago I suffered
with a severe catarrh Of the bladder.
which caused continued irritation and
pain. 7 was miserable and could not
stand up or walk for any length OF
time without extreme WEAKNESS and
pain. I began taking Peruna and 1t
greatly relieved me and in eleven
weeks I was completely cured, and
felt like a new man."
Those who object to liquid medi-
cine can now procure Peruna in
Tablet form.

Catarrh is liable to affect any Of
the internal organs. This is especially
true Of the bladder, which is very
frequently the seat of catarrh. This
IL sometimes called cystitis.

winter and spring, show the effects
of the changed season. They grow
pale; they become restless; their d.
gestion is feeble Every mother
wonders, as she looks at her child,
whether or not it will survive the
warm summer months.
No mother can get positive an
swer to this question; but every
mother can be assured that if she
is careful of her child and mindful
of few essentials, she can give her
child nine chances of living to one of
dying. The most important thing to
do is to watch the baby's food. If the
child is breast-fed and the mother
is careful in her personal habits,
there is comparatively small danger
If the baby is bottle fed, there is
much greater danger of sickness, but
this can be minimized by a few sim
pie precautions. These are the things
to do:
/: See that the baby gets fresh
and pure milk.
2. See that the milk never sours
nor gets heated before being deliv-
cred to you.
3. See that the milk is kept cool
after you get it.
4. See that the milk and nursing
bottles are boiled as often as used.
5; See that everything used on pre-
pairing the milk is kept clean.
g. See that flies are kept away
from the baby and the baby's bot
ties.
l. See that a physician examines
your baby, prescribes its food and d.
reefs its treatment whenever the lit
tie one is sick.
.. Keep the baby out of doors in
the fresh air as much as possible.
=. Feed the baby water to drink
It such times and amounts as the
season and age of the baby require.

MIGRATORY BIRD LAW
TO BE ENFORCED
Sportsmen Warned That Federal Re.
gulations for Protection of Wild
Fowl Must be Observed.

Washington, D. c., August H. With
the approach of open season for shoot
ing wild fowl, the United State De-
partment of Agriculture is warning
sportsmen that the Federal regula-
tons as amended October l, 1914
will be strictly enforced. Some mis-
understanding has arisen from the fact
that the various state laws do not al
ways conform to the Federal regula-
tons. This is regarded as unfor-
tunate but in such cases the Depart
ment must insist upon the observance
of the Federal regulations.
The Department will consider any
recommendations submitted in good
faith for amendment of the regulations
but will hold no public hearings there
on, nor will it amend the regulations
prior to October Is, 1915. 1t is the
purpose of the department to conform
the regulations to the wishes of the
majority of sportsmen so far as it
IAN be done and at the same time give
wild fowl the necessary protection.
Federal regulations divide the Unit
ed States into two zones, Zone No. /,
he breeding zone, includes the states
Of Oregon, Idaho, Colorado. Neb-
raska, Iowa, Illionis. Indiana, Ohio.
Pennsylvania, and New Jersey, and
all states north of them Zone No. 2,

Financing the Crops.

1t is at this time of wear that the
banks nave heretofore been called up
on to strain all their resources for the
financing OF the crop movement. The
banks IN the eastern states have had
to meet heavy demands from their
western correspondents in order to
provide funds for the harvesting and
transfer of the enormous grain and
cotton crops. The crop financing has
been more largely cash proposition
than any other great national enter
PRISE, the farmers needing the cash
for paying off their help and for pur-
GhaSing their many smaller necessities.
IT was then that we realized the In
e!aSticlty OF our currency, and the
dlfhculty of procuring all that was
needed for agricultural purposes.
-, ms year conditions are different
The Federal Reserve System has pro-
visions for just such contingencies
and the Reserve Board has issued
series OF instructions to the Reserve
banks outlining the regulations for
financing the crops. Thus the banks
VIII be relieved of their annual burden
and there will be no need of shipping
bags and boxes Of currency west and
south, or for making special deposits
OF government funds such as was
found necessary last year. The Fed
eral reserve notes will be called upon
tor this service; they will expand when
the necessity arises, and contract and
disappear when no longer needed. The
new banking system is based on sound
economics and will fill an ever-ex-
banding demand.

Last Price
CaA-IoJ T,,I,r

Though the above comparisons are
made with last years prices, it should
be remembered that the chief pyro-
technic gyrations have taken place
during the past two or three months,
and the advaces may fairly be taken
as representing the speculative boom.
In this period some of our leading in
dustrials which, however, have not
participated in the scramble for war
orders, have shown only modest adj
vances. United States Steel common
gained only 8 points, and Amalgamat-
ed Copper, 9 points.
There has been another important
reason for the increase of the specu-
lative tendency, and this is to be found
in the great amount of idle money, not
only in the banks but in the hands of
private investors. Wall Street. there
fore, believes that so long as condi-
tons continue at present, it will be i'm
possible to check the wave of specu-
lation that is spreading through the
market. 1t recognizes, however, that
the present stage is extremely dan
gerous, because it is concentrated in a
few specialties with such intensity
that ordinary profits will not be suf-
fcient to cause the present prices to
remain permanent, and as usual, es-
pecially in dealing with industriaIs,
rumored profits are probably larger
than any present conditions of the
business really warrant. On the other
hand, continuance of conditions in Eu-
rope may easily add increased bust
ness at profitable rates to individual
concerns. History has taught that
where the spirit of speculation is fed

July Corporate Financing.

Corporate financing in this country
during July amounted to only $40,-
100000, a smaller total than in any
previous month of the year. This can
be accounted for largely by the effect
on interest rates of the new British
~ per cent war loan, which sent
good many of our bonds back from
England. No large amounts of inanc-
ing were arranged by American cor
porations, because they hoped by wait
ing to secure better terms for their
bonds, and meet with a better demand
for them. The greater part of the Sc
curities maturing during the month
had previously been provided for, and
as the maturities left this year are
small, little financing had to be done
for refunding
July financing was less than half
that of June, not a third as much as
for April, and not a fifth of the Feb
ruary total 1t brought the total fin
ancing for the year to date up to $685.
100000. This is $247, 100000 less cor
porate financing than was done in the
first seven months before the war be-
gun last year, over $400000,000 less
than in the corresponding period of
1918. and $568, 100000 below that Of
1912.
Nearly three-quarters of the hnanc-
ing done during July was through the
sale of bonds. The division as to the
class of security for the month and for
the seven months of the year has been
as follows:

Bonds Decline on Stock Exchange.
According to the latest accepted
principles of finance and economies
bond prices are supposed to advance
when money is plentiful. The reverse
mas been true during recent months.
put this is explained by the fact that
investors have shown a decided pre-
terence Tor short-time investments
rather than putting their money into
long maturities. Thus it is found that
the average price of the twenty-five
representative railroad bonds used for
statistical comparisons declined again
during July. 1t is now at the lowest
level it has reached at the close of any
month since the reopening of the
Stock Exchange. The decline during
the past month was over half point
bringing the monthly compilations by
Dow, Jones & Co. to 77.2O5. AS com
pared with the average before the
effect of the war was felt in the in
vestment market, it is now off over 7
points. AS compared with the last
prices at which these twenty-five re-
preventative railroad bonds sold be-
fore the Stock Exchange closed on
July 80 year ago, the average price
is now off three points. Only three
