Every Drop an
Asset

S a dairy farmer you can
~ figure out to the penny
what your cream is worth. You
know that every particle Of
butter fat has a distinct value to
you. You cannot afford to use
a separator that misses any
cream.
The Primrose Cream Sepa.
rator gets every drop Of cream.
The principle on which it oper-
ates is as simple as the mocha
nism. The frame is open and
sanitary the supply can large
and low Every bearing and
quiet gear is well oiled by q
splash system.
In Primrose separators, good
workmanship and materials.
close skimming and durable
qualities. are the distinguishing
points. These are points that
vitality concern your profit.
No matter what the size Of
your herd, the Primrose is a
money-maker. Two-or-three-
COW farmers use them with profit.
The Primrose is the only
cream separator that automati-
cally drains out the used oil
from the gear case when new
oil is added.
Let us demonstrate this and
other points. If it is not con-
venient for you to call. phone us
and we will bring a machine out
and slow you how il operates and what
its financial advantages are to you.

YORK BONDL|
IS WITHOUT FEATURE

NEW YORK, November 27.-There
was very little change in the bond
list today. The Anaconda Is. which
had been the weak feature yesterday,
were again offered as low as 90. but
there was a better demand at the bid
price Of 81. The new Canadian North
erns were 100A bid, as against 100 bid
yesterday Liberty bonds sagged off a
trffle further. They were down about
a point and quarter from eWednes-
days high. There was an excellent
demand for the Bell Telephone of
Pennsylvania. IS which carried them
up across 102.for the first time. These
bonds have been about the most con-
sistently maintained Of any of the
recent new offerings.
Weakness continued in japanese
Is of tie sterling loan. These bonds.
which sold yesterday as high as 57k.
were down to 56A. The fact, how
ever, that other Japanese issues were
not affected. indicated that the decline
in the 4s was more the result of the
weakness in the London market than
to anything now in the Japanese sit
uation itself.

INTERESTING FACTORS BEARING
80 ON THE BUSINESS SITUATION
Stocks Moving Ahead Of Industrial House

call funds are more abundant than at
any stage this year. and quotations
on bankers acceptanccs have been
shaded. The rate on commercial bills
will logically be the next to succumb,
and when this happens. the Federal
Reserve Board will undoubtedly ad-
lnst the, official scale accordingly.
In all securities where the earning
regardless of trade depression. money
rates are the principal determinant of
selling prices.
In other cases where dividends are
at all threatened by trade slump.
where values are sensitive to fluctu-
ations in earnings, it is the develop
ments in the business situation
which mainly count.
There is no hesitation in saying
that with money rates coming do" n.
as they have already. and as they are
bound to do still further. as com
ency Of good bonds and Of sound in
vestment stocks will be upward. We
have seen this week bond prices be-
ginning to harden again, and we nave
seen Investment railway shares taking
the lead whenever the general stock
market has permitted a recovery.
October Trade Figures.
The October figures of the foreign
trade threw a great deal of light upon
sion in the foreign exchanges. They
showed a considerably larger total
of exports than for September. and
a total we'll above that Of the month
last year. At the same time imports
we're slightly less than In september
1920. and considerably less than those
of October, 1919. Predictions of q
slump in our export trade because OF
the theory that outside countries with
greatly deprecated exchange could
not AFFORD to buy. have been going
badly astray for whole year now.
They were worse upset after the Oc-
tober returns than at any time so far,
because the October exports took ac-
count Of much of the decline in com
modify prices. which started in the
summer, leaving it beyond question
that the outward movement was on
the increase, not only in value, but in
volume.

by; Treadway and the girl. =:
No further identification has been
obtained Of the other man sought. the

Detectives said they are proceeding
on the theory that Peirce was the
victim Of a robbery planned by Tread

men. They said they believe the girls
part was to lure Peirce to his apart

would be with him. ~

MOBILE, Ala, November 27.-Nor-
way was added to the list Of countries
involved in the dispute over the right
to. bring liquors into the United States
at the port of Mobile, when trials Of
thirteen members of the, crew of a
Norwegian steamer were held in the
inferior criminal court yesterday
morning on charges of violating the
Alabama prohibition law.
J. B. Oliver, vice consul for Norway,
contended in. a letter to the court
that the men aboard the shin were
Norwegians. and subject only to laws
Of that country and not those Of the
United States. but was overru1ed by
Judge Norborne r. Clark Of the court.
In his letter submitted. Consul Oliver
made the following contention:
"The Norwegian, law provides that

of a foreign state, such deeds az are
performed by any member of the
crew, or by other persons conveyed
by the ship. will unconditionally

The Secretary of the Treasury has
called upon the banks holding proceeds
from the most recent sale of Treasury
certificates. that is, the issue Of No
vember 10. for the payment Of so per
cent Of balance to the credit Of the
fund to bc paid in November 30.
This payment will leave but 25 per
cent of the proceeds Of the issue still
held by the banks and the chances are
that this will be called for payment
very early in December. Another issue
of certificates may. be needed to carry
the government over to December Is.
when the fourth installment Of the in
come tax for the year 1919 will be
due-unless Congress shall make some
provision for the relief Of business men
along lines recently suggested. but the
chances are that the payment will have
to be made on schedule time.
A large part of the last inStallment
of taxes will be made in Treasury GER

callable at 1913 after two years: 102

Retirement provisions are said to
be due to the fact that the company
hopes to be able to obtain authority
from Congress for an increase in
capital stock-the capital still re-
naming where it was when the COM
pany was organized in the last CEN
tury.
The margin of receipts and ex-
renditures of utility corporations
these days is too close to permit of
successful flotations Of moderate rate
bands, and the competition with
the high grade guaranteed issue is
another unfavorable factor.
