International NickeI.

A director OF the International Nickel
Company is quoted as saying there 10
no reason. as far as he knows. why the
market value OF the company's shares
should be a weak feature In the cur
rent dealings in the Stock Exchange.
Earnings Of the company are better than
ever before and officers OF the company
say the works are crowded with busi-
ness to the fullest capacity. Talk in
the Street OF a reduction in the dividend
10 not indorsed by the head OF the COM
pany. Provision for the Canadian taxes
which will be assessed against the In
ternational Nickel Company was made
before the declaration OF the last dlvi-
dend. which was paid on September 1.

Country VIII Prnsper.

Charles II. Jones Of the Investment
banking house OF Charles II. Jones &
Co, said YESTERDAY: THE uncertainty
which has been disturbing the business
interests OF the United States since our
entry into the war has been mainly
due to the absence OF deiuite informa-
tion regarding the details OF the loa ns
to he issued by the Federal Govern
ment and the extent OF the taxes to be
levied for the raising Of the sums neces-
sary to provide for the interest and
amortization of the bonds issued In rep
resentation Of Government borrowings.
Once these elements Of uncertainty have
been eliminated and II IL known what
our burden In to be both In amount and
character, the wonderful powers OF pro-
duction and accommodation to new and
untried conditions which Americans DOS
scss to a greater extent than any other
nation on earth to-day will bs asserted.

ment that the Allies again were in the
American market for munitions would
make the war brides shiver with Joy. and
prices would soar and soar and soar.
Yesterday the news that the Allies want
bids on 100000 six inch shells was
read casually and the quotations slipped
on further down. The difference this
time IL that orders come by way OF
Washington, where they are vised by a

CULLE0KA YOUTH
IN A SEA BATTLE
lNMAN YOUNG, OF CULLEOkA,
HAS A VERY EXCITING
EXPERIENCE.

Inman Young, Culleoka boy, who
enlisted in the United States navy a
few days after the declaration of war,
writes most Interestingly of his ad-
ventures on the sea. He has just re-
turned from a trip across the ocean,
going on the Orion, coal ship. Near
the Azores Islands the ship was at
tackled by a submarine and lively
battle ensued. The Orion escaped and
it was believed that the submarine
was fatally hit. Young was on the
ocean for about two months going
over and returning and during that
time his parents at Culleoka had not
heard from him. He is back at Nor
folk now safe and reports that he en-
joyed his adventure very much. The
battle near the Azores, he declares,
YVES most exciting event, as num-
bers of shots were exchanged. /

breeders of pure bred beef cattle. Mr..
Leftwich prefers the Hereford with
which his neighbor, Virgil A. McClan-
ahan, has had such signal success.
Mr.. Leftwich has already accumulated
about half dozen fine COWS of the
Hereford breed and recently he pur.
chased magnificent year old bull
from Mr.. Mechanism, for which he
paid the substantial sum of $500. Il
is Mr. Leftwich's purpose on his small
farm to carry about a dozen head of
the pure bred cattle. He has been
very careful in his selection, believ-
ing that the foundation should be of
the very best lines and have individ-
uality.
