AFTER The WAR

Few questions occasion more discus.
sion and attract more interest than that
centering around the probable course Of
investment prices after the war. There
are two theories generally presented
one a theory predicting lower prices
and the other directly opposite this,
predicting higher prices. The former
bases its bclieflon the strain of the ere,
dts of the countries involved, resulting
in higher yields, and the Notation of
foreign government loans will absorb
such vast amounts of capital that it
will be a detriment TO other high-grade
securities. ..,,,,
The second theory in which higher
prices are believed, to be in prospect
acknowledges that there will be a big
demand for capital not only by the gov
eminent but by the commercial inter
ests as well, but nevertheless; looks
for high grade securities to advance.
This theory takes the point of view
that these Investments are governed as
to price more by the position of con,
fdence and credit than by the current
demand for money

PUMA RUBBER COMPANY

At meeting Of the shareholders OF
the Pacific Development Company at
the Offices Of Fred L. Waldron, Ltd, last
night it was arranged to jnetease the
finances of the company in order to
plant an additional l25 acres in cane.
This company was formed eight years
ago as a rubber plantation and has
planted a considerable acreage in this
crop, Having a large area Of very
rich land at their disposal they have
also planted cane, -.gy rzE. ~ e
The 1915 crop from l25 acres yielded
an average of fifty seven tons Of cane.
AS the company has no mill the crop
was sold to olaa Sugar Company. The
new land to be planted next May is
now being cleared and made ready for
planting. The area in cane will be
increased so that the company will have

DOMESTIC CONSUMERS
TO HAVE PREFERENCE

According to the Wall Street journal,
Statements that Europe would lessen
her purchases Of American steel and
ammunition are received with amuse-
ment by manufacturers. The week
starts out with the mills fairly deluged
with inquiries for steel used in the
manufacture of ammunition. There Is
one inquiry in the market for $4,000
tons Of bars, which no steel compa ny
seems inclined to accept.
The mills are giving preference to
domestic consumers who are having a
hard time arranging deliveries, owing
to already sold UP conditions. The un.
filed tonnage statements for NoVem.
Der will give one of the best insights
into the extent of the volume of steel
business doing.
In this connection it is mentioned
that the Delaware, Lackawanna and
Western Railroad has placed an em.
barge on all shipments intended for ex
port, and has announced that until
further notice its entire service will be
devoted to domestic business only.

WELL-F|TTED COLLARS
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES

Most of the sore Shoulders and neck 4
that torture plantation horses and
mules at hard work are the result of
bad-ftting collars. > metimes the eff
fects are serious. Gases of sw eney in
colts are caused usua ly by too loose or
too wide a collar. Sores on the shout
tlers or neck and even fistulous withers
and big shou der "boils' result some
times. DR., W. H. Dalrymple, of the
Lor isiana State University points out
other bad efrec Is that he has noticed,
such as gals, congestion of the brain
from pressure on the. jugular veins, pre-
venting the free return of blood from
that important organ, and partial suffo-
cation from excessive pressure on the
winlpipe.
A collar to fit well and allow suitable
freedom to the horse, should have an
even bearing on the shoulders, and be
deep enough below to avoid pressure on
the windpipe and bIoodvessels Of the
neck. The names should be adjusted so
that the traces will not be attached too
near the point of the shoulder, nor yet
too high.
Bal All Around
On some plant t'7ns due attention is
given to these IA ers, and the horses
have come through the season in good
