High Grade Rails Subject to
Renewed Pressure in the
Market.

New York. May l1,-High grade stocks,
especially rails, were subjected to renewed
pressure in today dull and speculative
market, the selling again being attributed
to impending uncertainties at home and
abroad. Another break In Russian ex-
change cables to the unprecedented level Of
25%. or about half their value in Loraml
times.
More gold was received here for &C
count of the British government, making
almost $4,000, 900 on the new movement.
This was partly offset by further transfers
of the metal to the Pacific coast presum-
ably for Japan.
Aside from the declines in rails, which
ranged from / to points in St Paul, Read
ing, New York Central and Canadian Pa
cific, utilities we're mostly adversely af-
fected. American Telephone and Telcgrap /
was liner ,asingly active at gross recess
sion of az points to li6A, the lowest
price in almost two years
United States Steel made extreme gain
of n of point to 11G%, but fell TO 1l5b
in the last hour when the list drifted to
lowest quotation of the session. Industrial
Alcohol the only notable exception to
the general tendency. The closing was
heavy. Total sales $4,000 shares.
Dealings in bonds were unrestricted, rails
and utilities in that division following the
course OF stocks. Total sales par value,
$3.50. 900. United States registered As de-
clined X per cent call.

Forty-Eight Millions in
Gold Comes from London

New York, May ll.-Resumption
OF British gold imports assumed large
proportions today, another consign-
ment of $lS,400,000 from Canada to
J. P. Morgan g. Co. being deposited
in the local Federal Reserve bank.
This makes all aggregate of $48,-
100000 received here in the last three
days, $382,000,0O0 since the beginning
of the year and grand total OF
$l,520,000,0O0 since January, 1915.
The movement is in keeping with
the policy of the British government
whose fiscal authorities now in this
country acknowledge the necessity
for maintaining gold imports in or
der to stabilize the sterling market at
this center.

Selecting Varieties.
In choosing varieties of wheat, the
farmer should be guided by the eX-
perienceS of his nei"hbors and the adj
vice of his state experiment station.
This is true also of rye. but there are
available fewer varieties of rye than Of
wheat. The stations can furnish com
parative statistics on the yields and
behavior of number of varieties of
the two cereals.
After the grain farmer has procured
q supply of satisfactory seed he should
store it carefully. so that 1t will keep
in good condition and will be safe from
the depredations of rats, mice and in
sects. Bins which are supposedly rat
proof are available on practically all
farms and II will pay farmers to see
that they are kept in good condition
to keep out the rodents.

DISPOSITION OF DEAD HOGS
Mighty Poor Practice to Bury Cholera
Victims or Permit Them to
Lie Around in Open.

Only too often, when an outbreak
of hog cholera is investigated 1t is
found that last fall or winter. a pre-
viOuS tenant lost several hogs, buried
them about six inches deep and your
hogs dug them up. Other cases are
found TO be due to some dog which
has been feasting on dead. unhurned
hog carcasSes left out i'm the open by
some person mile or more away.
The dog brings home bone. piece
of skin or u chunk of meat, and
leaves it in the hog lot. The pigs
promptly consume the morsel hog
cholera germs and all. The only best
way of combating this method of
spreading disease Is to burn every
dead hog completely. When reduced
10 ashes, there is left no ghost to
walk.

A Saxon-French Cigar Lighter.

Several years ago the then new min
lister of France. NJ. KlOtz. decided TO
impose tax of two francs, or 40
cents American money, on each cigar
lighter used in that country. The rea-
son for this is that the sale Of matches
In France is in the hands of the gov
eminent monopoly and the portable
lighters interfered with the sale Of the
matches. On the other hand the
matches have become so bad in quality
that they are subjecl of complaint and
ridicule. The law has become unpOpu-
lar and there is an effort now being
made 10 have the order rescinded. Not
withStanding the feet that an in
creased tax was placed on tobacco by
the French government several years
ago. II has caused a tendency to in
crease smoking and that is proven by
the many smokers to be seen in public
places and thOrOughfares.
