New York, Jan. 25.-H. G. s. Noble,
president of the stock exchange, was
recalled to the stand at the resump-
ton of the 'leak" hearing.
He was asked how much time would
be required for the submission of brok-
ers' books. He said it was slow proc
ess, but that responses should be COM
ing in day or two.
! II have no reason to believe there
is Discrimination on the part Of the
brokers to comply with the commit
tees request for their accounts" said
the witness. Certainly the govern
ing committee desired to aid in every
way the expedition of the commit
tees work."
During the examination of Noble an
alteration arose between Attorney
Whipple and Representative Clipper
field at the end Of which Samuel STREET.,
the clearing house expert, resumed the
stand and the examination continued
along technical lines.
STREET. said that his own firm has only
from 125 to $50 accounts, but that his
books were so kept that the status of
each account, day by day in the form
required by the committee, could not
be provided in less than two weeks.
"There are not enough expert &C.
countants In the city to do this for
every hUuse,,'' he asserted
Mr.. Noble was accompanied by Hen.
ry K. Pomeroy, former president Of
the exchange, and now chairman of its
legal committee, and Walter f. Tay-
lor, counsel to the exchange.
The questioning turned into tech
nical channels, regarding the listing
of stocks on the exchange.
Why Stocks Are Dropped.
Noble said the usual cause of drop
ping stock from the list was because
it fell into too few hands.
Because" in other words, it does
not afford opportunities for short SELL
ing?' suggested Whipple.
Il never heard of that reason" in
terrupted Pomeroy.
A lengthy colloquy followed, end
ing finally in Mobiles admission that
such stock would be dropped be-
cause it did not offer sufficient oppor-
tunity for trading of any kind. But
not he qualified, solely because it did
not offer chance for "short selling"
Noble was coached throughout his
testimony by Pomeroy and Taylor.
Several times he asked that Pomeroy
be allowed to answer questions. Pom
eroy was sworn at the suggestion of
Chairman Henry.
No time limit has been set for sub
mission of the brokers' books.
ave haven't got that far, because
we believe the brokers will instantly
comply with our request" said Chair
man Henry of the committee today.
May Return to Washington.
There was strong inclination on
the part of members when they met
to return to Washington. Representa-
tive Harrison pointed out that the gov
ernment's accountants could be going
over the brokers' books and have ev-
erything in readiness when the COM
mittee returns next week.
The willingness of brokers to pro-
duce their books, as expressed by Mr..
Noble, followed meeting of the gov
errors of the stock exchange, at which
it was decided to comply with the
wishes of the investigating committee.

When man undertakes to mix his
own rations, what does he do7 He
buys straight feeds Take cottonseed
meal az common example. There
are great many different grades of
cottonseed meal, and the man who Is
looking for low-priced feed IL sure
to get low grade. The demand for
cheap feeding ingredients has caused
the quality to be gradually Whitfield
down. Consequently the farmer
nearly always works with feeds which
are poorer than he believes them to
be. He does not get adequate state
