NEW YORK, July z5.-The Standard Oil company of New Jersey today an- nounced a proposed increase of it's capital stock by S100,000,000 which virtually doubles the present capital tzation- The new stock will be at ' per cent preferred, but non-voting. and will be offered to present share holders at par.
 A statement to the stockholders from A. c. Bedford, chairman of the board, summarizes the proposed issue as follows:
 @The policy of the company has been to finance its growth from cur rent earnings but in view of condi- tions now existing and having regard to the present necessity of the diver sion of a considerable proportion of these earnings to excess profits and other war taxes, your directors feel that it is advisable to increase the capital employed in it's business by the amount of the proposed issue of pre- ferred stock. It is the intention to utilize this new capital in the new further financing in the development of the company's equipment and re- sources, plans of which are already under way. These include measures for insuring the continuity of sub stantial proportion of this company's future supply of crude oil, as well as maintaining a cash reserve against

Weather And Crop Conditions in Wis.

The weather during the week was
unseasonably warm and over the
greater portion of the state little rain
fell. However, some scattered showers
occurred locally; in a few instances
they were heavy, and being accompa-
MED by high winds, caused standing
grains to lodge; this occurred mostly in
northern and northwestern counties. In
cast-central counties it is getting dry
and rain is badly needed in some To-
calities in that section. The dry wealth
er was favorable for haying and much
clover, alfalfa and other hay crops
were harvested Corn grew rapidly, due
to the high temperature, and the dry
weather permitted much cultivation.
Conditions were generally favorable for
small grains; oats, spring wheat, and
barley are heading out, winter wheat
is headed and rye is ripening rapidly.
Potatoes are growing well, but bugs
are numerous. Cutworms are also
numerous and more or less damage was
done to corn, truck crops, and gardens.
Fruit prospects continue very good.
Strawberries are being harvested. Cher
ries, apples, cranberries, and blueber-
ries promise good to excellent crops.

CHAMBER OF COMMERCE
TO Be RE0RGANIzED

What the directors and members of
the Manitowoc Chamber of Commerce
declare to be the biggest community
movement in the history of Manitowoc
viii be launched shortly. For several
months President Max Richter and
the directors have been investigating
the most modern methods as they
exist in the leading cities of the coun-
try; and at special meeting held
recently, a comprehensive plan was
adopted that will give Mantowoc a
commercial organization second to
none in the country and embracing the
entire civic, commercial, labor profess
sional, agricultural, and industrial in
tcrcsts of the entire community.
Members Of the board have declared
that never before have the directors
shown such interest and eanestness as
they did in the discussion to build up
in Mantowoc an Association of Com
mcrcc. constructed on type that has
been accepted as standard by the
Chamber Of Commerce of the United
States, by the National Association of
Commercial Executives and by the
commercial experts.
"What we need in Manitowoc," said
President Richter, in an interview, "is
a commercial organization truly repre-
sentative Of the business, labor, pro-
fessinuu, civic, agricultural and indus
trial interests of the community, and
one in which all interests can unite on
questions affecting the public well
fare and the expansion of our terri
tory. Nanitowoc now stands at the
point where il must have commercial
organization second to none in the
State. II must he truly representative
Of the welfare and Importance of the
entire community, large in member
ship. adequate in working capital, and
SO organized that il will secure the
maximum Of personal service from
the general membership.
"ln deciding upon this important
step to modcrnize the Association of
Commerce the directors realize that it
is taken none too soon. In fact, the
need of more interest and work by the
general membership, and more ade-
qualc finances, is pressing, as inyesti-

as the success of this movement de

Cards In War seWice.

Having helped many soldier
through weary hours in trench and
hospital, playing cards are now being
pressed into active war service, says
the London Chronicle. You may have
noticed the new and neat little cloth
badges on the sleeve of our men from
The front, but possibly have failed to
understand the designs. They are
nothing but the familiar club, spade,
heart and diamond of the playing card.
Under the new scheme regiments are
divided into packs, each company hav.
ing its own symbol In a certain color
to serve MS an Identification mark, ali
other badges being removed before 60
Ing over the top.
