hours. They should be watched care
fully and planted as soon as germina-
ton begins to show. For convenience
for planting they can be. rolled in dry
sifted soil, or in the case of the larger
seeds such as peas beans and corn,
mixed in sifted leaf-mould or with
humus. When the upper layers of soil
dry out, it is often advisable to moist
en- the seedbed by irrigation before
planting. 1t is not the depth of plant
ing, but the condition of moisture and
of warmth that determines germina-
ton.
One of the most important things
in keeping vegetables in good table
condition, is to pick or gather them
all as fast as they are ready, canning
the surplus. Leaving them to grow
and mature discourages further yield
and tends to kill the plant. This
is especially true of beans, peas Gu
cumbers. summer squash and okra.
Summary:
|. Plant good seed in season.
2. Have ground in good condition,
8. Firm the ground well around
planted seed.
4. Repeat planting to have yeye-
tables through whole growing sea-
son.
S. Thorough cultivation after each

Heavy profit taking has followed

but the wire houses report such an ac-
emulation of buying from the inter
ior points that their effect upon
price movements has ben greatly
counteracted.
Almost every circumstance that has
bearing upon stock market sentiment
is of favorable or constructive char
acter. Despite the Italian eruption, it
is confidently believed that the Peace
Conference will in short time an
nounce harmonious settlement OF all
matters under dispute, though these
settlements will not always be in ac-
cordance with the idealism which the
American delegates are seeking to in
ject gratuitously into European af-
fairs. The remarkable outlook for
wheat and all other products of the
soil, the unprecedented outlook for
foreign and domestic trade and the OPP
timistic sentiment that has from the
first prevailed in regard to the sue
cess of the Victory Loan campaign,
have all been factors making for high
er prices in the stock market.
= AS for the government war loan,
some disappointment has been felt
and expressed that subscriptions were
tagging behind, especially in the New
York district. but in this respect we
are duplicating the experiences of all
four previous loans and the results to
date are neither better nor worse
than might have been anticipated on
the basis of precedent. Notwith-
standing the slowness of sales and the
fact that the patriotic impulse which
made other loans success at the last
moment is probably not so strong now
as then little cause for worry is seen
in prominent banking quarters. The
banks are DESTROYS of effecting a dis
tribution of the loan. but if this can
not be done to the small buyer, it is

Railroad Stocks
Attention has frequently been called
in this review to the railroad situation
and to the action of the railroad
shares in the stock market The only
stimulus the railroad stocks have ever
had since the early war days of 1914
was the taking over of the roads by
the government, at which time the
rails advanced from 10 to 80 points in
a single day. Under the government
guaranty of dividends the railroad
stocks have been stabilized and the

there has been slight fluctuation in
this division of the market in more

OPPOSING pRoFIrEER,Nc

Ohio State Journal: We must com.
mend Senator Pnrose for his stand
on the, .profiteer matter. He is con
stantly aecosted by men who want to
be saved by legislation from the dis
aster of falling prices, and to all of
these applications, he answers with
a general epistle saying he will not do
anything to avert the effect of fall
ing prices. That is the true attitude.
Let them fall like the rain, on the
just and the unjust alike. To think
that the government should interfere
in cases of a disturbed market makes
room for ridiculous event. 1t should
not be thought of. The other day con-
gress appropriated $4,000 900 to steady
the wheat market-Keep the price up
to $225. The argument is behalf of
this course, that the war which was
on at the time, demanded that the
production of wheat be maintained,
and therefor the government should
offer premium to prevent a disaster
The argument is a strong one and the
public is not disposed to resent It
and yet there is a widespread opinion
that it might have been avoided or
at least that it should not be again
,attempted. But as to the common pro-
fiteer we want no more patting on the
