FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
MARKET WAS ERRATIc.

New York, Nov. 21.-Erratic price changes attended today's stock mar ket. rading falling to the lowest ebb in several weeks until the last hour when an active selling movement eff faced numerous gains.
 Until that period even the profes- sional element seemed disiDclined to take a temporary stand, bending par tial readjustment of existing uncer- tainties, but the weight of the later offerings was too great to overcome.
 Moderate strength in ihe early and intermediate stages of the session was attributed to prospects of less string ent money conditions after next weeks heavy payment on the fourth Liberty loan. This possible relaxation was not unexpected to apply to time funds, the paucity of which is like ly to extend over the years end. Coppers were exposed to constant pressure by reason of Unfavorable trade .; nlttions. yielding one to ? 2 points, and motors were under the shadow of dividend establishments, ae shown by yesterdays action of the MtEweI directors.
 On the constructive side for a time were rails. which evincad a fair de- gree of strength, industrials. including U. S. Steel and former war equlD- ments also oils and tobaccos, but the variable advances in ttcse groups were forfeited almost together at the end. Sales were 560,o00 shares.
 Dealings in bonds were moderate but more diversified, the tone in the main being slightly easier. Liberty issues were steady and internationals irreg- ular. Total sales, par value, aggre gated $e,675 GOO.

Nine members of the boxing team representing the United States army and navy, who are to engage in con tests with English and French boxers at Albert Hall in London on December Il and l2, yesterday sailed on trans port from this port for England. On arrival in London they will be joined by American boxers now on the other side in service, bringing the number up to eighteen. Those who went over seas yesterday have been training for ten days at Billy Grupp's gymnasium, West 18th street. and all are in ex- cellent condition. Some clever box CTS are included in the party.
 First and foremost is Pal Moore of Memphis, Tenn, bantam who has been among the topnotchers for years past and who should, owing to his light weight, be able to contest with Jimmy Wilde at the English limit of the iyweight class, 112 pounds How ever, it is understood that Wilde has outgrown the f1yweight division and will hereafter fight in the bantam class. the limit of which is 11S pounds. Moore should give Wilde more trou- hle thSn any one the Briton ever has met.
 If Mike O'Down has any trouble de- feating Pat O'Koofe, the English mid . dleweight champion, Angie Rather, who is a sergeant in the American army, will probably be successful.
 Joe Lynch, the west side bantam, who knocked out Kid Williams, and is with the A. E. F., has developed into a featherweight and can be- de- pended on to take care of any French or English boxer in that division.
 Johnny Basham is the English vel ter champion, and Marty Cross should give him a hard battle. Basham was knocked out in ten rounds by Albert Radoud when the latter was at his best
 The party which. sailed from this port yesterday was accompanied by three trainers-Morris Bloom, Teddy Hayes and Abe Kaplan. The delega- tion was in charge of Eddie Kane manager of Billy Whalen and the Gib- bons brothers, Mike and Tom. | The chief stumbling block for the Americans will be Jimmy Wilde, who can reasonably be expected to account [ for three classes-fyweisht, bantam and feather. Wildes latest victim was
 Conn, big and able featherweight Pal Moore, if he can beat Wilde, will 1 force Herman to give battle.
 It was understood that Peter Her
 man. the bantam champion, was to gc across. but he was in this city yester- l day ard did not sail with the others | Herman is on a transport lying at this port and says he. expects to remain | here two weeks.
 | If Criqui, the French featherweight | who has been knocking the boxers o1
 the allied forces about like ninepins
 competes, he will make a lot of trou. l ble for Lynch. or any other feather weight who opposes him.

 those who sailed from Norfolk severa 1 days ago, and if he is with the party

OLD-TIMERS' SHOOTS
 WERE SUCCESSFUL
By PETER P. CARNEY, ] NE


 The old timers shoots" have been one of the most popular and success ful features of the 1918 hapshooting season.
 To November BOT clubs had been granted sanctions to hold these shoots and pay homage to the veterans It is likely that $50 old timers events will be held before the close of the year. In the 907 shoots held, the entries numbered 5S41, and the number of targets thrown was 426 604. Old-tim- ers-men who had been shooting be- fore the traps for more than 15 years to the number of 263S participated. The old timers event has served to revive interest in trapshooting among many of the veterans who for one req sen or another have not visited the gun club often in recent years-it has been the means of renewing acquaint- ance among tha old-t timers .anl -

Dry BY q Fan.

In the household which Possesses an
electric fan, the drying Of small guam
titles Of material can be easily done,
provided that special care be given the
preliminary treatment Of the products.
All that is necessary Is to make trays
of wire screening. with one end Of each
or preferably both ends open. The
materials to be dried are spread thin
ly upon the trays, which are stacked
one upon another with the open ends
turned toward the fan and covered
with cheeseclOth, and the fan is placed
close to the end OF the stuck and run
at moderate speed. thus driving n Wig
Orous current of air over the material.
Drying occurs much more rapidly at
the end nearest the fan, hence the
stack must be reversed after four to
six hours and again after n longer
interval.
All materials requiring blanching
that are to be fnn-dried should be
blanched in steam or boiling water or
serious deterioration is likely to oc-
cur. Also, since the rapid movement
of air over the product has tendency
to dry out the surfaces of the pieces
while the inner. central portions are
still too moist, fan-dried material
should be placed in baking tins and
placed In the oven of n warm stove to
be finished. The door of the stove
should be left ajar and the fire so
regulated that the temperature is held
at $50 to 16O degrees f. for two to
three hours. after which 1t should be
raised to $50 degrees F. for minute
or two In order to destroy any eggs of
fruit insects which may have been de-
posted In the material while exposed
in the drier. After this treatment the
product may be placed in permanent
containers. but should be examined
from time to time and returned to the
oven for n short redrying in case any
parts of 1t appear to be too moist to
keep well.

pits, but 1t is difficult to get them out
in cold weather, so that when pit Is
opened 1t Is desirable to remove its
entire contents at once. For this rea-
son 1t Is advisable to construct several
small pits rather than one large one,
and instead of storing each crop in a
pit by itself 1t Is better to place small
quantity of several kinds of vegetables
In the same pit, so that it will be nee
essary to open only one bank to get
supply of all of them. In storing
several crops in the same bank it is
desirable to separate them with straw,
leaves, or other material. The veg
etables from the small pit may be
placed temporarily in the storage room
in the basement, where they will be
easily accessible as needed for the
table.

That Pot Of Beans.

We were talking with some of the
boys who shortly before had serted in
the trenches with the first detachment
assigned to the firing line. They told
US Of the fighting and the raids and
how young Enright and Hay had met
their death.
But how do you like life in the
trenches?"
"Oh, not so bad! Gee. You ought
to have seen those beans. 1t was this
way. The cook hnd just cooked pot
of beans for supper and had put 1t on
the edge OF the trench to cool. when
along came German shell and hit 1t

have any supper. 1t was great -
