Local Produce Market

The egg situation is quite unusual at
this time. Here is what the market
expert has to say Of the egg situation,
viewed from the coast standpoint, IN
the Los Angeles Times:
Holdings of eggs in cold storage
were reported greater on June Is than
at any corresponding time last year,
for the first time since storage reports
on eggs were begun by the United
States Department of Agriculture in
August, 1916. On September l, 1916
holdings reported by 1876 houses were
1872 per cent less than on September l,
1915. On March 1, at the end of the
season, they were 1858 per cent less
than on March l last year On June
Is. however 5,151, 421 cases of eggs
were reported by 264 storage houses
last year, and 5,239,985 cases by the
same firms this year, an increase of II
per cent.
In spite of the low stocks on hand
on September l, 1916, the rates of with
drawals were proportionately larger
during all of the winter months than
they were during the corresponding
period Of the previous season. During
January, 1917, for example, stocks on
hond January l decreased 1877 per
cent, whereas during the same month
iAol yCdi. lliC pei SCHtdSC Va oCCl case
was only 667 per cent, though a larger
number of cases of eggs We're with
drawn last year than during January.
1917
During March. April and May and
the first two weeks in June, the rate at
which stocks of eggs have been placed
in storage has been proportionately
larger than during the same months
last year, though the actual number of
cases placed in storage was larger dur
ing March and April. During May,
1916, 2,140,0lS cases were placed in the
coolers in 236 houses whereas 2,621,S56
cases were reported placed in storage
during May this year in 1923 houses.
During the first two weeks in June,
1924 cases more were placed in stor-
age as reported by 81 plants this year
than were reported by 219 houses last
year. The total holdings on June Is
were reported by 33S houses as 5,752,-
225 cases. 477.609 cases more than the

STOCK LETTER
By r. Allyn Lewis

1t is very evident that the big break
of the earlier part of this week and the
week before cleaned up the market, as
the refusal to advance rail rates had
practically no effect except in few ~
the rails. For the last three years the
latter group has been bought almost
exclusively by investors anc they DO no,
let go on weak days. Some rails are
possibly selling too high but the ma
jority are selling al prices which do no,
represent present earnings and were
they assured of the long years dividends
behind them unquestionabiy under nor
NAL conditions they would reach high
er plane of value. The arrangement
that the bituminous coal companies
have come to with the government Is
the most bullish factor that has &C.
Cured to that trade in its history. Some
short interest has been built up and
ought to be the backlog Tor a higher
and broader market in the not far off
future.
There was a little selling from ac-
counts which had been weakened by
break in motors, Ohio Gas, Alcohol and
the oils.

Apparently it is not the intention to
do so until the August meeting at which
time the dividend rate will be fixed.
Those who have followed the COM
ment in these columns regarding the
unfavorabIe factors which have been
making their appearance in the aut"
industry certainly have not been sur
prised ct the action of Studebaker.
But thousands of investors through
out the country have been filled with
stories OF huge profits.

sGood; the instrument is yours"

That was the first step and the next
step came very shortly after, when,
having further demonstrated his ca
pacity in other ways, Meade was Civ
en- charge of the work on the east end
Of the dam.
81 don't care who he is," said VAN
deventer to his chief subordinate, che
knows what he's about, and if you
watch him you'll see. He's keen on
handling men. The other section fore
men will be hard put to keep up with
him. He keeps watch on himself. He's
got some secret he won't betray. He
doesn't mingle with the crowd, but
every once in while something slips
out. What he doesn't know about en-
gineering nobody needs to know, I'll
wager"
"How do you account for his being
out hereY
"Oh, it's the Old story, suppose !;
he's come cropper somewhere
down and out and wants to begin
again, and can't do anything but this.
It's not our business, Stafford: : he does
good work for us and we're satisfied" )"
The Benson signal., 1917-06-02

charge Of some special work, that
Vandeventer unconsciously looked to
him in any emergency. He actually
found himself consulting Meade on
occasion.
He had accompanied the younger
man on one of those rambles which he
had hitherto taken alone. He had not
broken down Meade's reserve, but he
had won his admiration and regard.
Vandeventer was not unknown in en-
gineering circles. In earthwOrk he
was by way Of being an authority.
His experience had been varied and
extensive. Meade's reserve and reti-
cence rather hurt the older engineer.
He had invited confidence and had
even given his affection. He intimat-
ed delicately that If the other were
under cloud Vandeventer might be
in a position to help him.
It was fortunate for Meade's pur-
pose of concealment. for his incognito,
that most of his engineering work had
been done abroad and that he had
been out Of touch with American en-
gineering for practically the whole Of
his career. Vandeventer was Har-
ward man, too, and that made 1t espe-
cially hard for Meade to keep from
betraying himself. AS a matter Of
fact, the younger man actually longed
to make a clean breast G. 1t, but he
could not quite bring himself to do it
Thn% oh 1of
Three months ought to see the COM
pletion Of the dam and the long canal,
which vas to carry the stored water
to the irrigation bitches below. Van
deventer was already making plans
for another big job, and he had de-
cided, in his own mind, that among the
subordinates whom he would take
with him the newcomer should have
the first chance. Vandeventer felt
proud and satisfied when he surveyed
the work that had been accomplished
in the six months Of labor. To be sure
the delay in the completion Of the
spillway disquieted him little.
The dam had reached the spillway

passed it. Indeed, on the fifth Of jan
uary the dam builders were within
five feet Of the top; that is, the crest
of the dam was 120 feet above the
level of the valley. They lad planned
to run the spillway around the east
ern end of the dam. The rock drills
and dynamite which had been ordered
had finally arrived in December, and
by putting as many as possible to
work on the spillway Vandeventer had
succeeded in opening it for its entire
width to an average depth of about
seven feet below the intended top Of
the dam; that is, it was now about
two feet deeper than the actual crest
Of the dam, but it still lacked five feet
Of it's designed depth.

CHAPTER XIV.

The Former and the Latter Rain.
The work on the dam was progress
ing splendidly. Vandeventer, driving
his men hard, shared in all their furi-
Gus efforts. He was not only their
leader, but their inspiration. He had
surrounded himself with a body of
able assistants, and his teamsters and
workmen had been culled until they
had become a small army of picked
men Of which to be proud.
Among all these Meade stood very
high. in the four months he had been
with Vandeventer he had shown such
a grasp of things, such an ability to
handle men, in one or two instances
when, with intention to try him, the
resident engineer had given him

There are few cities that can lOoh
back to past like that Of Alexandria
and fewer still with s3cn a past thas
can contrive to keep up with the times
and look forward to the future. The
relics of 25 dead centuries Of Alex
andrian history have to be looked fo1
in the guide books. In the city itseh
they are covered up by the latest mod
ern improvements. A few eru'iitG
Alexandrians may argue about the real
nationality of Cleopatra, but most Oh
them are talking about the price Of

WEAK, AIDS TIL
BY THE REV. CHARLES STELZLE
Jesus is a gentleman. Especially
in His treatment of women. He al
ways speaks generously of them
never taking cheap filings at them,
nor using them as Illustrations of
anything but the finer, nObler quail
tiles.
He doesn't tolerate a double stan
dard of morals for the sexes. He in
sists upan a square deal for women
in this regard. Never does He make
a distinction between men and
women in rights or duties.
Champion of wOmen's rights He
is-in the biggest, broadest fashion!
Children have no truer, gentler
friend. The Ideal City has been pic
tuTed in the Bible as a place in which
happy children are playing in the
Streets"
Jesus wants to make His city that
kind of a tOwn-and He won't per-
NIT dirty streets, nor will He allow
anything else in the streets of His
city that might defile these little
ones.
And woe betide the exploiter of
children!
It were better for him that a mill
stone were hung about his neck and
that he were cast into the depths of
the sea-he will get no mercy from
Jesus! Jesus will pursue him relent-
lessly-clear to the end of the road.

maudlin. Jesus is never that. But
toward those who have fallen He is
always tender and generous. He
