MARKET NEWS By R. Allyn Lewis

Another day of liquidation and short selling. The street has not been as bearish in a good many months as it is now. The near approach of the election, the fear of Wilson's re- election, renewal of the submarine trouble, the peace talk have all turned many former bulls into bears. Liquid
 ation in the past week has been on a large scale and conditions are pret- " sound. Steel looks high to what fl used to sell at, but it does not look high if 1t earns S95, ,000,000 for the quarter as 1t is expected to show. Norfolk continues the strong feature in the railroad list although there seems very few rails for sale at these prices. This market was not made by any political party and it will not be unmade by any political party. As long as present conditions continue while We are the market of the world fer commodities and secur- ities. prices will hold in many cases and advance in others. Most people can call reactions but the people who play for reactions do not make bis money The man who sold his Nor folk at 137 saw an eleven point de- cline but how many bought it back? The man who held it saw q nine point new high price made. C. x O. is coming into the public notice on it's earnings it's finarcial condition ap.l it's future So is Western Union.

STRONT|UM MINERALS
 FOUND IN ARIZONA

That minerals of strontium are found in quantity in Arizona is fact that IS not generally known, according to bulletin of the Arizona State Bureau of Mines. Fifteen miles south of Gila Bend, in Maricopa county strontlum, as celestite, occurs in the sedimentary series associated with gypsum, sand stone and conglomerate. The most promising beds are 40 to 50 feet thick, and are most productive in the upper ten feet There are undoubtedly other undiscovered deposits of strontium salts within the state, but they are not re- corded.
 Strontium is not easily identified by the eye. but is very easily identified by the simple tests that are outlined Tn Bulletin No. 35 of the Arizona State Bureau of Mines, entitled Celestite and Strontianite.
 Theer are several uses for strontium salts, the principal one being in the sugar industry, and in the manufacture of fireworks. This bulletin may be se- cured by writing Charles F. Willis, di- rector, Arizona State Bureau of Mines, | Ts,rrco0 Arizona

Ore Samplinu

'The sampllng Of an ore forms very important part of the operation car ried out in a mill or shelter. although the reasons for systematic sampling in concentrating plant are not per haps always the same as those in the case of a shelter. Where d company smelts and concentrates it's own ores, the sampling in the mill is done more for check on the work and an indi- cation as to what is being done, rather than for any other reasons.
 When lot of ore comes to a smelter 1t is highly essential to know it's com position and value, because of the fact that, in order to smelt it correctly. cer- tain fluxes must be added, and the basis for figuring the quantities of these fluXes is upon the analysis of the ore samples. Therefore, irrespect- i've of any necessity for correst sam ping in order to get correct payment. the smelter must have corrected sam ples for its own use, and the sampling department is one. ofcthe most import ant in a shelter Upon it's correct sampling depends the efficiency of operation of the plant.
 A bulletin descriptive of smelter methods of sampling has been issued by the State Bureau of Mines, as Bull letin No. 26. by H. J. Stander, and may be obtained by writing Charles F. Will lls, director, Arizona State Bureau of Mines, Tucson, Arizona.

Profits approximating S5,65O,OOO will have accrued to Miami Coper Co. from operations during the first nine months of this year-estimating September re- suits. This will be equal to $7 per share, or more than sufficient to meet a full years dividend requirements at the current S6 rate.
 Surplus today amounts to about $5,- 100000, which will have been aug mented materially by the time the No vember dividend payment of S1.50 per share falls due.
 Profits for the six months ended June 30 totaled $3,499,000 It is esti- mated that profits for the third quar- ter will approximate S2,150,000 or 66Gt of the net for the first six months.

This was particularly true of the leaders, United States Steel showing decided restraint with allied industrials. Bethlehem Steel yielded 8 points, with l to 3 points for Republic Iron x Steel, Colorado Fuel, Industrial Alcohol, New York Air sBrake and some of the leading motors.
 This was partly counterbalanced by the strength of shipping stocks. Rails were strong at the outset. but sagged in the last hour. Total sales of stocks amounted to 455,000 shares

Pre-Eminently Practical and
Unitarian They Also Sat-

Fancier-The "ROcks" and
'Dottes" and REDS" Lead
the World as AIl-Round
General Purpose Fowls
BY NJ. l.. LoNGFIELD
Author and Practical POultryman

America leads the world in the super
excellence of her breeds of poultry. This
is not mere spread eagleism. 1t is con
formity to face"
China bred Cochins, Langshans, and
Shandhais 1000 years At the end of that
time her breeds were little better than
mongrels. America has been breeding
fowls for about 50 years. And in this
half century we have not only perfected
many foreign breeds of fowls, but we
have originated and bred up to a fixed
standard at least three of the greatest
breeds of birds in the world
1t is worth while to face this fact:
Imported" is a tag that has smaller
meaning than formerly
The American class includes some IS
different varieties. Every one of them
has made it's mark and represents quail
ity.
The great Plymouth Rocks probably
hold the pre-eminence. AS a general pur-
pose fowl the Barred variety is without
doubt the most popular of all the breeds
of fowls. The Whites and the Bluffs and
the Columbians are making their way
steadily to front line position.
The Wyandottes stand next to the
'Rocks in popular favor down to the
present moment. There are no less than
eight different varieties of these splendid
birds: Silver, Golden, Black, Buff, White,
SiIver-penciled,. Partridge and Column
bian. The Whites have won out against
all the rest, though not one has failed
to command universal admiration
The Rhode Island Reds are more
recent breed. For a dozen years they
have been forging to the front in mighty
strides until they threaten today to
supplant even the Rocks" and the
"Dottes" in public favor. They are
divided into two camps, the Single-comb
and the Rose-comb varieties. There
appears to be little difference In the
popularity of these two kinds of Reds
Under this heading it might be we'll to
mention the Rhode Island Whites,
breed originated within two or three
years, and which gives promise of making
a fine showing in the near future.
The Javas, black and notified, the
Dominiques, and the Buckeyes, complete
the list of the purely American breeds.
PRACTICAL AND UNITARIAN

man says, something that you can "tie
to- Our breeds of poultry answer COM
pIetely the universay taste and demand.
The Plymouth Rock is found in
American poultry yards more numerous
ly probably, than all other breeds of
fowls combined. why? Because it is
first of all a utility breed. For the same
reason the Wyandottes and the Rhode
Island Reds are sweeping to the front
in every state. First of all, they have
the qualities that win in the markets.
The typical American is wise; he seeks
first utility and efficiency Assured OF
these, he is assured of everything re
desires besides.
What solid alI-round qualities in these
great forefront American breeds! They
are medium in size. Standard weight
of Plymouth Rock cock, 9h pounds. The
Wyandottes and the Reds are one pound
lighter. Hens are two pounds lighter
than roosters. These weights are ideal
for market fowls. The 12-pound bird, as
we'll as the three or four-pound bird, will
miss the mark of largest popularity in the
broiler or caster trade. In quality of
meat too, these three great breeds are
probably second to none
In egg production they are among the
best in the world whether for winter or
summer. Heavily feathered, yet not
burdened: tough and hardy from the
shell up clean legged and golden skinned ;
powerful and plump of body and abound
ing in energy and pep without being
nervous and ''scary,' the Rocks, the
Dottes and the Reds lead the world as
all-round general purpose fowls.

chine" has not even standing room by
the side of the great American breeds.
Every year writes in larger scroll the
superexcellence of these splendid fowls.
We must have more than eggs. We must
have man who can, make the most he
can, of the best meat producing animals
in the world-the Rocks, the Dottes, the
Reds the Javas, the Dominiques and the
Buckeyes. They should be raised by
hundreds of thousands in every state in
the union. The most exhaustive scien-
tific Investigations are needed to develop
to it's highest possible efficiency this rich
mine of the peoples resources.
1t is not so generally recognized, per-
hape, but one of the crucial phases of
the turkeys development begins in Oc-
