WEEKLY FINANCIAL REVIEW

NEW YORK, March 9.-The desul- tory character of the stock market in the early part of this weeks operation was attributed largely to complications in the foreign situation and prepara- tions incidental to the next liberty loan.
 Sharp recoveries in the later dealings. especially in rails, resulted mainly from the agreement arrived at by con- gress relative to the terms of the rail- road legislation and further progress of the war finance measure.
 Gains of two to eight points among high grade or investment transporta- tion shares were effective chiefly at the expense of long standing short interest in various leaders.
 Industrials developed d ecid e q strength after publication of annual statements by some of the foremost manufacturers of iron and steel. These revealed greatly enlarged earnings for 1917.
 Trade reports also were far more encouraging, business in general indi- eating expansion and recovery from the depression occasioned by strong est federal regulations.
 Call money was freely offered at five to six per cent, the minimum fig ure prevailing, but time funds held at six per cent, with almost a complete absence of supply.

FINANCES AND MARKETS

NEW YORK, March 9.-Material re- auctions were registered by important stocks today. Reading suffered an ex- treme reduction of points. Union Pacific, 8; and other rails, as well as prominent industrials, shippings, equip ments and specialties, to points.
 The decline probably resulted from a combination of profit taking and sell iug. shorts putting out new lines on foreign advances which suggested a fresh Teutonic offensive on the west ern front. Sales amounted to 27O,000 shares.
 Domestic developments embraced the February statement of the United States Steel corporation, showing a de- crease in untitled tonnage of not quite 100000 tons, against the moderate in crease of the preceding month.
 Last weeks service contraction in bank reserves was fully rectified-the actual excess expanding by almost $43, 100000. Reserves of members in the federal bank also disclosed a gain of moer than $55,0O0,0O0 against the recent loss of almost s50,O0O, ,OO0

In provisions the outcome ranged from Pc decline to a rise of 12c. Traders also were inclined to look for a more general domestic shipping all next week. In addition, receipts here showed some falling off and there was further disqniet over rural complaints of a scarcity of cars. Weekend evening up of trades strengthened oats. Receipts were meager and shorts seemed to have | over exerted themselves, selling in anticipation of government crop re- | port.
 Notice taken of the huge. supply | of cured meats in the west had a bearish influence on provisions. The | effect, however, soon wore off, largely as a result of increasing strength of | quotations on hogs. Close:

 SHOW HORSE DIES

Knockalong, the most famous show horse in Europe, was killed by the Bolsheviki in Petrograd last month. Just prior to the var, Walter Winans purchased him and after he had swept everything before him at the international horse show, sent him to Petrograd, where he won the em- peror's' prize. Recently while running riot in Petrograd the Bolsheviki broke into the stable where Knockalong was kept. They took the horse and rode him all day without food or water and left him to die in the street. It is reported that the magnificent trot- ter Willy, 2:05, that A. c. Pennock raced so successfully in Europe and America, was recently killed under similar conditions in Moscow.
 Axvolo, the throe-year old brother of Worthy Volo, 2:0S4, and half brother of Peter Volo, 2:02. and Vol ga, 2;O44, is now in Thomas W. Murphys stable, being prepared for his futurity engagements.

Italy Spending 5 Millions Daily

So far no serious attempt has been
made to improve the food situation in
Italy, which.is gradually getting worse,
not so much on account of acute short
age as to disorganiZed distribution and
artificial increase of prices due to the
speculations of middlemen and to ex-
tensive boarding. Sensational revela-
lions are being made In the local press
about the profits of middlemen espe-
cially In respect to animal food. For
instance, it has been ascertained that
the lamb market has been cornered by
middlemen, who are buying lambs at
II cents a pound and selling them to
retailers at over SLIGO, with the re-
suit that the market prices Of lamb
have risen to almost So a pound.
Profiteers Unchecked.
Strangely enough no action has yet
been taken against the denounced mid
dlemen while boarding is being re-
pressed in a half-hearted way, despite
the fact that all the shops and restau-
rants raided afforded convincing proof
that cheese, fats and foodstuffs of
every description are being hidden and
sold at fancy prices. A few arrests
have been made, but the measures so
far adopted are inadequate to improve
existing conditions.
AS the patience of citizens is we'll
nigh exhausted, it is feared that popu-
lar dissatisfaction and resentment will
lead to disorders and thus weaken ma
tional resistance at time when the
situation is apt to become serious ow-
ing to an impending offensive on the
italian front. Radical and energetic

cut-oyer timber lands Of the North,
Northwest and South; second, the
more general and systematic raising
of sheep on farms, where sheep rails
ing has been hitherto neglected large
ly because Of frontier competition;
and third, continued use Of the great
ranges. of the West to their full capac-
ity. 1t can be done. 1t is question
of education.
In 1900 we had in the United States
80 sheep per capita. In 1917, the fig
ure dropped to .46 per capita. In 1890
we produced 429 pounds Of wool per
capita. In 1917 only 2.72 pounds per
capita.
We import now so per cent of our
wool consumption. We ought to pro-
duce that at home; and we can If we
will.
Sheep increase rapidly-from so to
100 per cent annually as compared
with the number Of ewes.
There is every reason, in the opin-
ion of the committees, why, for the
sake of our economic welfare and In
dependence, we should act on the fact
that we can raise enough sheep If we
will, and reap advantage and profit
in so doing.

PREVENT BREEDING OF FLIES
Essential That Carcasses of Dead
Animals Be Burned or Buried
Method of Control.

prepared by the United States Depart@
ment of Agricultural
The black blowfy, the bluebottle
fly, and the flesh flies are carbon
breeders. They attack wounds on liv-
ing animals mainly as q result of the
presence Of the flies in abnOrmally
large numbers. To prevent the breed
ing of the black blowhy it is essential
that carcasses be burned or buried,
even during the winter months. Thus
the proper disposal Of carcasses be-
comes of much Importance all the
year. Where these flies become
nuisance by communicating food prod
ucts or by entering houses, which is
usual in towns or cities, attention
must be given to the proper disposal
of garbage, as they will breed in the
meat scraps in garbage cans or on
dumps as well as in carcasses.
To destroy maggots in sores the
same method as for the screw
worm is to be followed. 1t is not
always possible to prevent maggot In
festation following dehorning, but If
periods Of cool weather in winter are
chosen for this operation usually no
trouble follows. To prevent maggots
from gaining entrance to wounds the
application of pine tar is advised. Fol
lowing dehorning, some advise cover
ing the wounds with pieces of
cloth dipped in pine tar. Many of
these will remain in place several
days.
The tails of lambs are sometimes
infested by maggots following dock
ing. This can be largely prevented
by removing the tails with moderately
heated pincers. The docking of lambs
also tends to avoid s0iling of the
wool during succeeding months, and
this helps to prevent infestatiOn Of
the rump by maggots. Other impor-
tant steps in preventing wool-maggot
injury are the following: (I) Breed
hornless sheep and thus avoid injury
from horns and consequent infestation
around them; (2) lamb as early in
the spring as possible-considering
other conditions; (3) shear either be-
fore lambing or as soon after as pos
sible, and thus avoid the infestati0ns
which almost invariably follow in
heavy-wool sheep when warm, humid
weather comes on.
