A quick method of killing flies and

with electricity. Anyone who has

The wires of the core are extended

No current is used until connection
is made by the insect touching the

In order to attract the fly or insect

Now Have Standard Barrel.

The bill for a standard, barrel pas
sed by congress during the closing
hours Of the last session, went into
effect July l. Satisfaction with the
new law has been expressed by mer-
chants, farmers and shippers through
out the country. For fruit and vege-
tables and other dry commodities, the
bill provides that the barrel must be
made of slaves 281a inches long, with
heads l7B inches in diameter and a
distance of 20 inches between the
heads. The outside measurements of
the bulge must be "a inches. AL
though the barrel may be made in
other forms, it must contain 1850 GU.
inches.
The use of any other form than
the standard barrel or any of its null
tlples will be punishable by a fine of
$500 or imprisonment, or both. The
law will be enforced by the U. S.

most too tritilng to notice. And 1t
should be noted that Tor the most part
the selling of securities at the present
time is by those who hope to make
turns on the market. We do not see
any indication that investment securi-
ties are being parted with. But at
the same time it should be remarked
that the great investment demand for
securities which should mark the fin
ancial condition through which this
country is passing at the present time
has not yet appeared. The DISPOSE
ton to wait and allow money to re-
main idle is one OF the remarkable
features OF the present day. The lead
ing facts in the situation are not as
yet making the impression to which
they are entitled. 1t seems to be eS-
Gaping attention that American stocks
would not be sold by foreigners at the
present time were it not for the neces-
stiles of the foreign financial situation.
We have the money to buy all the
American stocks which they will Of
fer and to loan the money which they
may desire to borrow on them, and it
greatly to our interest to do so, and
the money which we supply in this
way is not sent abroad. 1t remains at
home and helps to pay for the grain
and manufactured products which we
are selling other nations. We have al
ready received since January first
$l19,O00,00O in gold from foreign
countries. 1t is still coming to us. If
we were to furnish to-day one or two
hundred millions in the way of loans
to Europe it would not affect the cur
rent rates for money. In fact, at pres
ent we cannot see how it is possible
to use the surplus which we have ac-
cumulated in this country in a way
such as to materially affect our money
supply or our loaning rates.
The stock market is also concerned
with the needs of certain railroad pro-
perties which must undergo financial
re-adjustment. Relief seems in sight
for some properties which have long
been in receivership, and plans are be-
ing laid for other adjustments with
out the help of the courts if possible
Particularly does this apply to the
Missouri Pacific, for which a plan has
been worked out which seeks to set
the finances of the road on a solid
foundation. The fact that we are to
all appearances entering a period of
much greater trade activity supplies an
added incentive to put through at this
time the needed readjustments of inn
portant properties.
