CAPITALIZATION.
Essential Facts to be Considered Be
fore lnvestina

tore Investing.
! investors are commencing to learn
the truth of our oft-repeated state
ment that par value is of small i'm
portance in the affairs of corpora :
ton, says the Denver Mining Record.
We all know that if a certain sum
fof money is to be divided evenly
among certain number of person
the disbursement will be greater in
proportion to the fewer number to
partake of the dividend The same
Is true in the affairs of a corporation
man does not have to be versed
in higher mathematics to know that
II a certain amount of money is to be
distributed among the shareholders of
a 1,OO0,O00sh share corporation and a
like sum among the shareholders of
100000 share corporation, the man
holding one share of stock in the L.
0eO,O0o-share corporation will receive
just ten times as much money as the
man holding one share of stock in the
100000 share corporation. A 1000
share block of stock in the 100000
share company will draw down as
much dividend money as a 10000 share
block does in the 100000 share COM
pany if the total amount to be dis
'bursed is the same in each instance.
Some enterprises with big plans for
development find it necessary to have
100000 or 100000 shares of cap
ital stock. The scope of the opera
tons of the company is SO extensive
that when completed it is anticipated
that good returns can be paid on this
capital. On the other hand, some en-
terprises require only a limited eX-
penditure, and as result the capital
stock of the company is placed some
times as low as 5000 shares.
Do mot make the error of thinking
that the shares of every company have
a par value of 81. We saw a prospec-
tus recently, showing a company with
a capital of 100000; and we know
of one investor who thought this cap
italization indicated 100000 shares. AS
a matter of fact the par value of the
shares was 1 cent, and 100000 cap
ital meant a 10000, 900 share organi-
cation.
When company officials or pro-
motors attempt to hide the number
of shares in an enterprise, we are i'm

PRODUCTION OF SALT
IN THE UNITED STATES
HIGH RECORD MADE IN 1918,
WHEN PRICES MADE BIG
ADVANCE.

Salt is plentiful in the United
States, and more of it was produced
in 1918 than in any preceding year
yet the rise in its price helped {
little to increase the high cost OF
living. The average price of salt pei
ton in 1914 was $2.O9; the average
price in 1918 was 1912, an increase
of rs per cent The lowest estimate
of human value--the minimum hu
man efficiency-is expressed in the
old phrase He's not worth his salt
but this cheap commodity brought
it's producers in the United States in
1918 nearly $27,OOO,OOO which was ST.
100000 or IS per cent more than
they realized in 1917
These figures and many others
showing the domestic production of
salt, bromine and calcium chloride
in 1918, by kinds and by States, are
given in chapter of Mineral Re-
sources of the United States by R,
w Stone, just published by the Unit
ed States Geological Survey depart
ment of the interior, Washington,
d. C.
Some producers reported that the
cost of labor was nearly double that
in 1917 and many had trouble in get
ting laborers of any kind. One produc-
er reported that though the prices
were higher in 1918 than in 1917 the
Profits were less
Large Export.
We exported more than a million
and a half dollars worth of salt in
1918, most of it to Canada and to
Cuba, though strange to note, we sent
nearly 23,OO0,OOO pounds, valued at
about $4,000, to far-away New Zea-
land.
The report contains brief sketches
of the principal foreign deposits of
salt. 1T also gives statistics of the
domestic production of bromine and
calcium chloride large part of which
is derived from brines that yield salt
as their principal product
The survey has also published a re-
port entitled 'The Salt Resources of
the United States" by w. C. Phalen
(bulletin $500, which may be obtained
without charge ON application to the
director of the survey at Washington
This report contains descriptions of
the deposits, accounts of their origin
many analyses Of natural brines and
bitterns, and statistics of the salt in
dustry in the United States from it's
beginning.

SAMUEL j, ALLISON.

No doubt the readers of The St.
Tammany Farmer read with interest
and satisfaction of the recent sue
cess of the MadisonVille delegation
of shipworkers who went to Phila-
delphia and Washington TO place be-
fore the Emergency Fleet Corpora
ton and officials in Washington the
facts that warranted a continuance
of the shipbuilding for the Govern
ment at the Jahncke Ship Yards.
They presented such a clear case OF
efficiency in this yard as to not only
secure a completion of the contracts
but to win the highest commendation
for the Workmen. This delegation
was headed by Samuel j Allison.
Who is Samuel j. Allison?
With all the names of men who
have done things during the war
men who have sprung suddenly into
public light and men who have al
ways been publicly knoWn-Mr. Alll-
son may not come quickly to the
minds of our home people, but he
is we'll known in sporting circles.
st. Tammany parish has claim on
him. MandeVillians should know
him. Boys who attended the Catho-
lie College of the Brothers in 1882
will remember him with delightful
reference to his work as an athlete.
Later he became professional ball
player and helped the Detroits to
win the pennant in 1887. He was a
great base runner as well as record
long distance runner. And to cap
his great achievements in athletics,
he is one of our greatest long dis
tance swimmers. He is in the twen-
ty mile class.
But Mr.. Allison's accomplishments
are not limited to sports. He is a
genuine worker, wherever you put
him, and his work usually brings
results. He is genial and whole
souled and a friend who can be
counted on. And also Mr.. Allison is
a fourth degree Knights of Colum-
bus and is a hustler in his lodge
work, as he is elsewhere.
Therefore we are glad to learn thai
Mr.. Allison, although he was born in
Orange, Texas, has come back to our
parish, where his college days were
spent and where he breathed the
czone that built up the strong body
and deep lungs that made him !
great athlete and gave him the sunny
disposition that ties him to his
friends and his friends to him.
