FINE SYRUPS IN
 LARGE QUANTITIES.

A trade name for Louisiana syrups and 1 molasses and the proposition to give Louisiana sugar-eane products a promi- nent place in the literature of a national food campaign propaganda by the United states food administration has put the Louisiana sugar industry years ahead in one week s time, week which was un- doubtedly the most significant in the his. tory of the industry says New Or leans special to the Manufacturers Rec ord The low-grade molasses and sugars
 production Will be reduced to practically nothing this season if the plans as. ap-
 proved are completely carried out
 Hjsh-grade sugars such as were once
 made exclusively in Louisiana and first
 molasses, the real exquisite grade will be practically the sole products of the
 Louisiana cane industry this fall. Syr-
 ups Of the table variety will be made in

 to advertise Louisiana sugar products nationally for direct consumption and
 the making of seconds and thirds will
 be officially tabooed Posters. recipes and other literature will be used lavishlv by the food administration to educate the nation as to the qualities of Louisiana cane products. No more blackstrap or third molasses will be made in this state under the new programme.

1 and yet have the handsomest house on your street.
 There was new angle to the proposi- ton. Paint as an item in the current expenses of carrying the house hadn't been reckoned in. Yet it was as legiti- mate an item as fire insurance. Like taxes, it could be put over for year; put Just like taxes, too. it would cost more the longer it waited.
 " md that in house painting the best results are secured where painting is acne regularly, at short intervals It IS cheaper to put on a new coat now, While the old paint is still good, than to Wait for several years when Several coats will be needed. And if you put on a new coat now and another new coat be- fore that one wears out. your house will look it's best all the time
 It is easier to keep up than to restore. And it is cheaper. That reduces the monthly charge on the house for keep ing it properly painted.
 Too many individuals look upon ex- penditure for house paint as something to be put off as long as possible, like the day of judgment. Too few understand that painting is a vital item in the up- keep of house.

me systems, and new trunk lines are be- Ing laid to handle the production of the newer fields. particularly of Ranger, Cisco and Brownwood
 During the last several weeks there has been steady mounting up of the total production of oil in Texas, and prospects are favorable for continued increase of the yield for an indefinite period. The explorations of the Central West Texas region have already proved that an enormous territory is oil-pro- dIcing. It is predicted by practical oil men that within the next 12 months the new fields in central west Texas will be giving a daily yield of more than 2c0000 barrels, with a possibility that it may be double that quantity Success continues to be met with in bringing in wells of large production at depths of close around 30o0 feet around Ranger. Deeper drilling is in progress in other localities of that region.
 In the Ranger and adjacent fields more than 1.500000 barrels of oil are now in storage. It is regarded as significant that nearly all of the larger oil com panies of the United States have ob- tained large leases in the new producing territory, and that they are building storage tanks and preparing to lay pipe lines to care for the oil they are pro- ducing. Most of the steel tanks are of o50O0-barrel capacity. It is estimated that more than $2,0O0.OO0 has already been expended in the erection Of storage tanks in the central west Texas region.

Paint A Good Lnuestment
 La the Upkeep Of Buildings

1 Victor Lauriston in American Paint and Oil Dealer says: The attitude of the individual toward the paint proposition has great deal to do with selling. The paint dealer who irnagines that all people are pretty much alike, and that the same argu- ment which persuades one man will per srade another, would do well to get out among folks and get the customers side of the paint argument. He would find, among other things that all people do not regard paint from the identical angle. Twenty years ago there was probably more sameness in this regard than there is today. Since then, a great deal of first-class paint education has gone abroad throughout the length and breadth of the land People know more about paint than they did. The result has been on the part of many indi- viduals a changed attitude toward the paint proposition.
 mus if Jones is buying or building a house he usually looks ahead to see iioW much # will cost him to carry that mouse. He reckons interest on invest ,'lsn,' so much year; insuyance, so iiiron ,r, a year; taxes, so much a year.
 Then in six cases out of ten he stops. Inese are, to him, the visible items.
 in the remaining four cases Jones goes ahead and adds: 90e' :. upkeep, so much a year. And tbis item includes paint
 In the course of last springs paint campaign dealer ran up against a typical prospect who objected on very unusual grounds.
 I'd like to paint that house of mine. he said, ."but it's laying out an awfnl lot of money,
 Said the dealer: If ypu were rent ing that house, how much would it cost '

 You'd expect the landlord to keen it looking right?"
 He could. for that
 Well, If it's a fair question, how much does 1t cost You in interest and taxes every nlonth.''
 Fifteen dollars maybe sixteen. But there's the fire insurance. too,'
 Yes. How much is that?
 That's a little less than a dollar 
 And why don't you provide as much for weather insurance?"
 What do you mean?''
 Paint. Paint protects the woodwork from the weather It preserves the It protects the health of the family. If you paint once in three years. and it costs sixty dollars. the item will be less than .75 a month. Your total rent would come to slS.75 a month-just a shade more than half what you'd pay ] landlord. You can save a lot of money

Industrial ActiUity to Continue

Large Capital Invested Southern Industries Opera At High Pressure Capaciy-Era Unprecedented Prospery
 After Peace Rapid Population

Industrial activity continues at high pressure. While most of the new en- terprises are along the lines of war es- sentials, the total of investments in the south for general development purposes. noted within the past two or three weeks, has been appreciable. But even the small industries have at least an indirect relation to wartime ne- cessities.
 Every mile of road improvement comes under the head of military high way, and every dollar expended on grain elevators and packing houses in the south contributes that much to- ward food conservation. All the money expended on school buildings is an in- vestment that counts from the govern- ment's point of view, for no matter how long the war may last, educa- tional work must go forward.

 The plant consists of main building oI steel frame, iron roof and sides in- ciuding detached fireproof building for the mammoth transformers. Another small fireproof building houses the auto matio regulators which govern the ..uge carbon electrodes in the furnace. These electrodes are nearly two feet in diame- ter and seven long, costing s15000o. One of these will be consumed every day. Chattanooga's original electric furnace plant, that of the Southern Ferro- Alloys company, uses more electric power than IS employed to run all the street cars in Chattanooga and to light all the streets, stores and homes in Hamilton county, being by far the largest customer of the Chattanooga Railway and Light conl- pany.

eY REVIEW LEASED WIRE

NEW YORK, Dec. 30. - Renewed liquidation of stocks and bonds, the latter in unprecedented volume, char acterized the feverishly active trading on the stock exchange today, several important isues, including rails. re- cording lowest quotations of the year.
 In all probability, much of the sell ing of rails was impelled by the many adverse statements for November sub mitted by the interstate commerce commissoin, such systems as Pennsxl- vania, Reading, Baltimore & Ohio, Canadian Pacific, Chicago & North western, St. Paul, Rock Island and New Haven reporting net losses rang ing from $700,000 to almost $2,O00,0 ,000.
 Recessions among standard rails ran from 1 to points, but among issues of lesser importance losses were more extensive. Industrials and equip ments, coppers, motors and oils yield ed l to points and utilities l to 5.
 The few conspicuous exceptions to the downward trend were shippings, Southern Pacific and United States Steel. the latter losing only the small est fraction on the moderate rally at the close. Sales, 1,O20,000 shares.
 Losses among some of the more speculative bond isues, including Pennsylvania Consolidated 5s. St Paul convertible 415s, Seaboard Air Line Adjustment 5s and Interborough Rapid Transit 5s extended from to 5 per cent, but the heaviness of Lib erty issues, especially the fourth AZ S at the new minimum of S94 was the overshadowing feature.
 Sales of bonds were estimated at $45,000,0O0, par value, exceeding the previous record by about S10,000, ,O0O The Liberty group contributed ap- proximately so per cent to this total.

 Nor has Irene Castle ever been awarded a vehicle Of like power or one better suited to her particular talent Her role calls largely for action. not much for acting, but in the few scenes where T portrayal Of emotional intens. ity is required she rises tO the situa- ton more competently than ever be- fore. General tone Of production quite equals if it does not surpas the high standard always maintaind at the Astra studio.
 Additional value is claimed by Con vict 993' through the presence of Warner Ollnd, the popular serial heavy. whose past performances and type well suit him to interpret the character of Mallory. leader of the crooks.

"Still another factor in the produc- ton of colds, pneumonia and other re- spiratory diseases is carelessness or Ig- norance of the people regarding suit able clothing during the seasons when the weather suddenly changes, sitting in warm rooms too heavily dressed or, what is even more common, especially among women, dressing so lightly that windows are kept closed in order to be comfortably warm.
