GERMAN MOVE SEEN
IN BOAT STOCK SALE
Wall street Hears Buying OF
Electric Co. Shares Is Ef-
fort for Control.
RUMOR MEETS DENIAL

After the purchase OF about 10000
shares of Electric Boat Company stock
by II. =. Goldschmidt 4 Co., bankers
and members Of the New York Stock
Exchange. from Isaac l.. Rice. there
were rumors In Wall street yesterday
that the stock was bought for German
interests. This was denied by mem
bcrs of the Goldschmidt Arm.
The rise IN this stock has eclipsed in
its speculative features even the ad-
vance Of Bethlehem Steel earlier in the
year A year ago Electric Boat stock
was kicking around the curb at y. with
little interest in 1t. Six months ago the
stock was selling at about 35. At the
beginning of June II sold at so. Two
years ago the company was almost
bankrupt. The stock sold yesterday
at iS6. ON Friday last IL touched 1917.
Price Movement starts Rumors.
The movement Of its price on the curb
has been the cause OF many rumors
for several weeks. The report yester-
day OF buying by German interests to
get control was the most sensational
that had been heard,
Reports that had been partly con
firmed by interests close to the com
pany were that the British Government
had ordered from the company SOC
power boats OF high speed which Great
Britain was planning to use in specia
patrol service against submarines. Wal

spurred and the small speed boats were
pictured In all varieties Of service. from

The cost OF these boats has been vari

each. with general opinion inclining t.
the lower figure.

reported war order work for the Englist
Government. with the possibilities of de
structive service by the small boat,
against Germany's chief naval weapon

TAEAPPLE 7 EXHIBITS FOR FAIR
Then Clean Up the Orchard After Picking Clean and Getting Rid ct Rotten Apples, Broken Limbs and Trash.

Choose only perfect specimens for fair exhibit. Any judge of fruit is Justified in assuming that If a plate of apples shows one imperfect one. the exhibitor could not nnd enough per- fsct ones in his orchard to make a complete plate. Apples for exhibit should be saved out ct picking time. A good plate of fruit is uniform fK. size, in color; is not too large; is not teo highly colored for the variety, and Showg absolutely no blemish due to insects or disease
 A good box of fruit is made of the best posGible specimens, as nearly ab- solutely uniform in size and color as they can be-
 It is packed by the methods which follow the rules of the fair at which 1t is exhibited. It is just as good in- side clear to the bottom as it Is on top.
 After picking an orchard clean, 1t should be put in shape for winter be. fore 1t Is left.
 Get rid of all mummies, rotten ap- ples and broken limbs that were dam- aged during picking. Clean the fence rows of weeds. If the orchard is to be sown to a winter cover crop, see that the crop is planted we'll up un- der the trees and we'll out to the fences and in the corners.
 A good way to get rid of rotten ap- pies and mummies, if there are many of them. is . blow furrow, one round to each middle. turning the furrow away from the tree. Rake the num- mies and rotten apples in and throw the furrow back on them.-J. Lee Hewitt, Plant Pathologist, Arkansas College of Agriculture, Fayetteville.
