STOCK EXCHANGE FOR
FIRST HALF YEAR

Business on the Stock Exchange.
New York. for the first half of the
current year shows slight decline
in stock dealings compared with the
corresponding period of 1919, but is
far ahead of the 1918 record.
Total sales of stocks aggregated
about l24.000,0 600 shares, against 140.-
OOo 1000 in 1919 and only 740oo,o00 in
1918. But for the dizziness which
came over the market early in June,
the volume OF stock dealings might
have exceeded last years nigh rec
ord for the first siy months.
In the bond market q very differ
ent showing was made. The first six
months OF the year reached the I'M
precedented total of $2142.7l5.000 par
value. against S1.644,66i.o00 in 1919
and S769. SAP goo in 1918.
This vast increase over the first
half Of the two preceding years is
mainly due to the greater volume Of
dealings in Liberty bonds and Victory
notes. especially the former, on a de-
seending scale of values. Roughly
estimated. daily transactions in these
issues average so per cent. of the

PEAT ESTABLISHED AS FUEL
In Denmark 1t Is Employed TO Furnish
Power for Many Lines Of
Big Industries.

In 1910 peat established itself as n
fuel more firmly than ever in Den
mark. 1t is used now by nearly all
the Industries, by the private rail-
roads and in the country districts.
where 1t Is practically the only fuel.
Twelve million pent bricks were taken
from the marshes in the Odense dis
tlfct in 1918, and while figures are not
available for 1919. it is estimated that
the number was considerably larger.
The electrical works of the town of
Svendberg have successfully used
peat gas instead of petroleum. AS Il
locomotive fuel it proved to have some
disadvantages, requiring n larger boil
or and giving off many sparks.
Peat producers have complained
that the governments maximum price
on this article has made its manufac-
ture difficult. There have been a num-
Der of failures. However, the quality
of peat has been greatly improved
during the last FIVE years, and more
has been learned of its possibilities.
II will therefore undoubtedly figure
much more than previously as an
economic factor in Denmark.-New

DAYS AND NIGHTS IN
FRAMING PLATFORM

SAN FRANCISCO, CAL. July p
Framed after days and nights Of
struggle with clashing interests and
opinions the resolutions committees
draft of the platform was laid before
the Democratic National Convention
today for adoption.
The conflict in the forum OF the con-
vention was regarded as certain. Irish
sympathizers among the delegates had
served notice of their purpose to seek
to have that plank rewritten TO in
clude a frank declaration for diplo-
matte recognition of the Irish repub-
lie. Decisively defeated in his efforts
to force a bone-dry declaration into
the committees structure, William j.,
Bryan announced his purpose of re-
newing the battle on the floor. He had
also several amendments to COM
mittee planks to present to the con-
vention, he added. but did not dis
close their support.
The committee platform was silent
on prohibition enforcement. 1t was a
long document. the result of efforts TO
produce a brief emphatic statement Of
principles having been sought from
the outset.

Utilizing Farm Wastes

Something like one-third of the to-
tai production of grain ctraw in the
United States is not being used to adj
vantage, and of this amount one-half
is an absolute loss. OF the 245,000,en0
tons of corn slower produc I'd annually
in the United States, il is estimated
that only S1.5 per cent. is fed TO stock,
and that at least 80 per cent Of this
amount is loss through wasteful
methods OF feeding. Similarly during
the past years large quantities Of cot
tonseed meal have been used for di-
rect fertilizing purposes, which could
be used TO better advantage for feed
ing cattle, since not over % per cent
of It's fertilizing value is lost when j.
is so used.

character Nobility Taught children

one OF the finest services TO a child
that parents can give. as pointed out
by the National Kindergarten Associa-
ton. is to help him rightly to ap-
praise the moral and spiritual worth
of great men and women. To reveal
Washington. Lincoln or Florence
Nightingale. to a child is to inspire
and enrich him by making clear what
are the greatnesses of the great.
Parents, the National Association
holds. should be warned against hold
ing up as ideals, second. third and
even ffthrate figures. They should
have the courage to say TO their chill
dren. This woman. however we'll
known. is not worthy of your re-
spect, for she lacks nobility. This
man. however, rich or however NUM-
erous his henefactions, is not truly

LONG IDOL or SMALL soY
Famous "Desdwood Dick~ Lived and
Died In Full Appreciation Of HIs
Great Popularity.

Deadwood Dick is dead. His real
name was Richard Bullock. and he
died most conventionaliy at an age OF
seventy-five years in a hospital at
Glendale, Cal.
Deadwood Dick should have been
the happiest OF men. Few men can
pass twilight years iIlumined by the
glow of their past Few men are
privileged TO read heroic lies about
themselves which are founded on Il
modicum OF truth. Achilles never
read the "Aeneid." Satan never read
paradise Lost" unless he had Pc
rused It since AIllton's day by the fitful
flames OF his plutonic abode. Sieg-
fried never scanned the "Nibelung-
lied" The greatest heroes OF the
greatest lies by the greatest liars have
met their end believing they would be
unhonOred and unsung by posterity.
Not so with Deadwood Dick. His
saga was Mt his elbow these several
decades. All he had 10 do was 10
take down one Of the volumes over
which the boys Of n generation or two
ago pored to realize what great man
he had not been. And all the time
he had the consciousness that he real
ly had passed wonderful days on
mountain and plain, hauling gold by
stage through perils created by nature
and by man-that there was enough
OF the heroic to Justify the modern
Observation-Disclosures Times-Star.

THE OLD FASHIONED
DECORATIVE HOLLYHOCK

The old-fashioned hollyhock is now
a fashionable and up-to-date plant for
decorative purposes, and landscape
architects and designers love to plant
lines and groups of hollyhoeks. par
ticularly about the foundations of a
house in connection with shrubbery
groups, which offer a fine background
for the stately spikes.
Hollyhocks may be raised from
seed planted as late as July and reach
blooming size the next season. In
fact self-sown hollyhocks often send
up a blooming spike their second
season.
The hollyhOck has been remarkably
improved and has fine range OF
color through various reds, crimsons
TO almost black, with beautiful ar
ray Of pinks, roses. salmons, chamois
and yellow shades. The single holly
hook is outstripping the double varie-
ties in popularity. owing 10 the grace
of its flowers. The double varieties
have little longer season OF bloom,
but are altogether lacking in the
graceful outline of the single sorts
However, they furnish wonderful
spikes of color.
Hollyhoek seed planted any time
between now and the first of August
and given a little cultivation, may be
expected TO provide fine display
for summer. W
Hollyhock seed terminates quickly,
and the little plants should be trans
planted to permanent quarters as
soon as they have made two true
leaves. Give them rich soil and cul-
tivation and they will sprint rapidly
and be fine plants by the time freez-
ing weather sets in. They should be
covered with mulch the first year,
After that they will take care of them
selves and increase into big clumps.

most among the planks came endorse

ed but complimentary to this declara-
ton went the statement written in
after preliminary committee strug-
gle that the Democratic party would
not oppose reservations making
clearer and more specific the obliga-
tions of the United States to the
League associates,
Accompanying this was an asser-
ton that the President had repeat
edly declared and the convention now
re-affirmed that Americas obliga-
tions as a league member must be
fulfilled in strict conformity with the
constitution of the United States, lin
cluded in which is the fundamental
requirement of declaratory action by
Congress before this nation may be-
come a participant in any war.

Physique Of Country and City Boys.

Under the selective draft law, regis
trants were given two physical exami-
nations. one by the local draft boards
and another by the army surgeons af-
ter the men who passed the local
board examination reached camp.
Analysis of these records of physi-
cal examinations shows that the coun-
try boys made better records than
those from the cities; the white regis
trants better than the colOred, and
the native born better records than
those of alien birth. These differ
ences are so considerable that 100000
country boys would furnish for the
military service 4,T90 more soldiers
than would an equal number of city
boys. Similarly, 100000 whites would
furnish 1,240 more soldiers than would
an equal number of colored. Finally.
100000 native born would yield $500
more soldiers than would a like num-
Der of foreign. The importance of
these figures may be appreciated by
noting that $500 men is equivalent to
an infantry regiment at full war
strength.
