Chicaoo Grain

CHICAGO, Feb. 1.-r-WheaI: Wheat decline toucned its extreme shortly af- ter the opening, running from "A c to 15A a bushel, the latter in the May A tair short interest was in the mar ket and stopped the decline with viz orous buying, lifting prices around half the loss and for the rest of the day the price swung within 2-cent limit, closing with losses from 4Rc to &c.,
 The tendency of breadstuffs will continue an export trade and as the market has discounted more than the worst damage the return to better prices is not far removed. The season. able decline has probably been reached in the low prices of the day. and con- servative buying on the weak spits ought to yield good returns.
 Corn: The corn market stood up better than the wheat and extreme loss being just under five cents and the close showed an average loss in the two deliveries of 2Ia cents. The se- we're cold weather is creating demand for feeding on a large scale, and the corn on the domestic situation is in fair demand. The period of accumula- tion will continue for some time, and the support of prices may be expected on all declines.
 Oats: The surprise of the days mar ket, was in oats, where the decline of the May was over cents exceeding the corn loss in price The buying de- veloped with more than usual strength on the decline and the close showed losses of 2ssc and 1 Ac The trade seems 10 regard fifty cents as a very low price for this grain and having supported at this level the conservative operator will find it advantageous to buy on the decline
 The attitude of Washington is awaited with deep interest by the grain trade and the protection Of the foreign trade will develop a good bull market in all the grains

FINANCES AND MARKETS
Republican A. p. Leased Wirel


 NEW YORK, Feb. 1-(Wall Street. The stock market was put to another supreme test of it's endurance today, Germany's unexpected announcement of her intention to renew submarine operations on broader and more un- restricted scale causing an all around shrinkage of quoted values.
 Selling was at its height in the first hour when the trading was of frenZ- jed character and lowest prices were made. Rallies of one to five points with as much as ten for Utah Copper, were registered before mid day, but recurrent liquidation took place after 2 o'clock driving prices back to or near initial minimums.
 The movement lacked the enormous individual offerings of last December S feverish markets. Except for United States Steel and some of the metals declines, while extensive in the aggre- gate, were on an orderly basis after the early outburst, which probably repre- scented involuntary unloading of mar gined or speculative accounts.
 The further selling of the final hour derived impetus from rumors that severance of diplomatic relations with Germany would be announced later in the day
 WltH lew eACeptlOnS every StOch III the active list declined measurably under the low prices of last month, in- cluding United States Steel, which fell to 99 and closed at 102A, a net loss of 9A points in sales approximat ing 600,00 shares. or about 30 pel cent of the total operations of 2,100.00t shares.
 Bethlehem Steel broke 36 points and rallied 10, shippings lost 10 to 1S mak- ing only feeble rallies, and rails al gross concessions of three to seven points, closed mostly at lowest levels.
 Little attention was paid to the weakness of foreign exchange with marked concessions in rates on Berlin and Vienna and new low record for fires, or Italian remittances.
 Virtually every international bond oi the issues resulting from the war sold at lowest price since their flotatior in this market, Paris 6's breaking 2% points with American foreign security 5's down 12s. Domestic bonds were heavy to weak speculative rails fall ing abruptly. Total sales, par value $6,550,000. United States bonds were unchanged on call.

Motion Pictures In Industry.

Many industries have been brought
up to a higher efficiency by motion pic
lures, which permit q close study OF
each movement upon the part Of q
worker. In no work is this more de.
sirable than in surgery, where human
life frequently rests entirely upon the
efficiency of the surgeon. Studies al
ready have been made in q number Of
hospitals in the United States and
Canada. As q result, it will soon be
possible for a surgeon having an un'
usual or difficult surgical operation on
hand to secure q film showing every
motion made by an expert in some
other hospital in the performance OF
the same operation. Surgical methods
and instruments differ widely and some
Of the members of the American Medi.

ROAD
BUILDING
MONEY FOR IMPROVED ROADS
Spent for Building and Mantle
nance During 1915.

Wrom the United States Department Of
Agriculture.)
Ninety per cent Of the registration
and license fees paid in 1915 by auto.
mobilists to the states, or $16,213,3S7,
vas spent for the building and main
tenance Of county and state roads, &C
cording to a compilation just published
by the Office of public roads, U. s. de-
partment of agriculture. In all, 2,445,-
664 motor vehicles were registered in
that year and their owners paid a to-
tai of $18,245,713 for registrations and
drivers and dealers licenses. This is
an increase Of $685. eO over 1914, and
an increase Of 734,325 in the number
Of vehicles registered. Automobile
fees now defray nearly Z per cent of
the total amount spent on rural road
and bridge building, whereas in 1905
the income from this source was less
than three-tenths of I per cent Of the
total expenditure.
The growth Of the volume of fees
and registrations is noted by the fact
that In 1901 New York, the first state
to require fees, collected only 1854. In
1908 only $4,000 cars were registered
throughout the entire United States.
By 1915, however, the number had
Jumped to the figure given, so that
there is slightly more than one motor
car registered for each of the 2,375,OOO
miles Of road outside Of the incorpor-
ated towns and cities.
The relation between cars and road
mileage varies widely tn different Sec
tons. There is only one motor car for
every six miles Of rural road in Ne
vada, but nearly six motor cars for
every mile of such road in New Jersey.
There is an average Of one motor car
registration for every "A persons in
the United States. Iowa apparently
leads, however, with one motor ear for
every 10 persona while only one for
every 200 persons is registered for Ala
bama.
It must be understood, however, that
the figures of registration do not ne
cessarily represent a total number of
cars, IS some of the states do not re-
quire annual registration, others group
pleasure and commercial cars and mo-
torcycles In their accounts, while still
other states do not require registra-
ton of motorcycles.
There is great inequality in the reg
~istration fees charged by the different
states. The average for the United
States was STAG. The state of Yer.
mont, however, secured in 1915 a O
revenue of $3.50 for each motor car,
while Minnesota received only about
The Bottineau courant. (Bottineau, Bottineau County, N.D.) 1895-1929, 1917-07-19

80 cents annually for each car. In
Texas and South Carolina no annual
registration fees are collected, the only
requirement being a county fee of 30
cents and 81 respectively for perennial
registration. Most Of the states, how
ever, also levy annual taxes on motor
vehicles and this adds Importantly to
the public revenue contributed by the
owners Of motor-propelled vehicles.
In the use Of fees, however, there
seems to be a general policy Of apply
ing the major part Of the money col
lected from automobiles directly to
road betterment. In AZ Of the states
Of the Union all or the major portion
Of the m~otor-vehicle revenu must be
expended for the construction, i'm
~pr0vement, or maintenance of the pub
lie roads, or for the maintenance Of the
state highway department. In 20
states, all or the major portion of the
net motor-vehicle revenues are ex-
pended by or under the supervision or
direction Of the state highway depart
ment. In seven states one-half to one
fourth OF the state motor-vehicle rev.
enues are expended through the state
highwaysdepartment, and the remand
er by the local authorities. Many
states, in addition to applying license
fees to road construction expend for
this purpose a large part Of the fines
and penalties collected from owners.
In the number Of registrations New
York state led In 1915 with 255,242;
illinois was second with 18O,832; Cali
fornia third with 163,797; and Penn
sylvania fourth with 16O,137.
