New York, January 2S.-The market for coffee futures was less active today but prices ruled steadier on reports of con- tinued difficulties in the matter of inn portations and in sympathy with steady Brazilian markets. There seemed to be some European buying at the start and the market opened at an advance of to points with prices later improving on moderate demand in the absence of any aggressive pressure.

Sugar Market

New York. January 2S.-Local sugar re- liners who had been holding off for several days past came into the market today and made purchases of 100000 bags of Cuba for prompt February and March shipment at sac, cost and freight, and 6o,OOO bags of Porto Ricos at prices equal to 4.64c for centrifugal. This demand gave the market a steader tone although 1t was thought probable that further pur- cfases could have been made at the same prices. The large crop of sugar this year both in Cuba and Porto Rico has caused some sugar operators to hesitate about taking bullish stand on the market although it is generally recognized that the high freight rates and the European demand have created at least two new elements in the market this season, which have not previously been important fac tors On the basis of today's sales, the spot market was quoted at 4.64c to A. 77c for centrifugal; 3.S7c to 4c for molasses, and sac for Cubas, cost and freight
 Prices remained unchanged on the basis of 5.S5c for fine granulated,
 The market for sugar futures reflected the, steadier tone in the street and values advanced to points with covering and scattered buying for outside account.

SHELTER TURKEY IN WINTER
They Are Hardest Of Poultry, but Ap.

Turkeys are considered as among
the hardest of poultry after they are
mature, but they appreciate some ex-
tra care In winter. This does not
mean that they require pampering. In
spite Of the fact that when left to
themselves they prefer TO sleep In the
bare branches of trees or on the ridge

for having some shelter.

SMALL W MOST POPULAR

Favors Plymouth Rock.

"The small, active fowl, other

seeking only after egg production, he
should choose II small breed,s says
Professor Dryden, the man who Is re.
sponslble for the origin of the Oregon
Agricultural college hens. 1t seems
tn be II law of nature In the animal
kingdom, that heavy producers are
small In size, active and nervous. II
Is another question whether the best

two years. The Plymouth Rock, OF
breeds OF that size, will sell for
about twice as much as the Leghorn
Even within the breed or variety, Pro
lessor Dryden says, that the heavier
producers, On the average, are those
Of light weight. Sometimes some Of
the heavy hens are heavy producers,
but this Is not true OF the average.
At the Oregon station a pen OF Al

eggs. Separating them according to
weight into three groups, we got this

WASHINGTON, D. c., Aug. 19.-
A nice little row has been on between
Senator Chiffon and Representative
Littlepage over. getting relief for the
West Virginia flood sufferers which
Governor Hatfield wired the states
delegation In Congress would be most
welcome. In the meantime, the state
has gone right along helping the dis.

its own treasury regardless.
In brief, this Is the story: Senator
Chiffon got the Senate to appropriate

on appropriations. Mr.. Shirley, OF Ken.

luton, and, after conference between
Mr.. Littlepage and his Republican col.
leagues who were working hard In the
background to forestall any objection
on the Republican side which they sue.
ceeded In doing, it was decided to ac.
cept Shirley's suggestion. 1t was that
a resolution be offered Including West
Virginia in the 100000 appropriated
for flood victims In South Carolina.
Alabama and Tennessee. There had
been only s201000 Of that sum appro.
priated, and Mr.. Shirley gave assur.
ance that there would be ample funds
from that appropriation to take charge
Of the West Virginia situation. Mr..
Shirley said he would object to res
olution of,the fo"m taken by the Chill
ton resolution, and his objection OF
course, would be sufficient to defeat
