All sold and Hungry for More.

Offering houses have just hung up the
"all sold" sign on all recent offerings
except possibly the outstanding New
York States, Of which about s9,000.000
is unsold. The balance is being distrib-
uted daily. Among the distributions
completed yesterday were the Rochester
Gas and Electric Corporations S7.000.-
600 issue, the syndicate being closed at
p. NJ, and the $6,000.000 Offering Of
the Cincinnati Gas and Electric Cor
poration, and the Detroit United Rail-
ways s4.000,000 offering was closed up
on Monday. Investors. despite the scare
ity of new offerings of large size. appear
to be hungry for more. and 1t is difficult
to find anything worth while on the
griddle outside of small municipal or
State issues.

Du Pont de Nemour- 7H..

Despite the general advance In bond
prices certain recently created indus
trial bonds can still be picked up in the
open market at less than their original
Offering prices. A good example of
them Is e. I. du Pont de Nemours a
Co.'S ten year 7lhs, offered last May to
the amount Of $35.00o.00O by a syndi-
cate headed by j. p. Morgan a Co.
They were sold originally at par 10
yield ~ per cent, but during the set
back suffered by the bond market
shortly afterward declined several
points. They have been very active Of
late at prices ranging from s7% TO esK.
Many persons hold the erroneous idea
that e. l. du Pont de Nemours & Co. de-
rive virtually all their business from
explosives for military use. During the
last ten years their net receipts from
their commercial business. as distin-
guished from their profits on military
business. have averaged more than
s7,500,000 year. and In only one of
such years were such receipts less than
twice the s2.625.500 required TO meet
the annual interest charges on this
issue. Those earnings were exclusive of
any return from the companys direct
or indirect investment In the General
Motors Company stock. The manufac-
ture OF explosives Is a highly developed
chemical industry and the scope Of the
company's operations has grown grad
ualiy and logically to include allied
lines Of chemical manufacture, and thus

American Agricultural 7Ms.

The ease with which the American
Agricultural Chemical Company's 7h per
cent. first refunding mortgage sinking
fund gold bonds have moved up In recent
markets bespeaks a well cleaned up mar
ket and is tribute to the excellent dis
tribution Of the $30,000.000 of these
bonds originally offered In February.
They are secured by a mortgage on all
realty and equipment owned by the COM
pany and subject only to its $6,959. 900
first (closed) mortgage 5s. due In Octo-
Der. 1928. The company's total funded
debt is thus $S6, $4,000 and the value OF
its mortgaged property more than $53.-
600, 900. In addition its net current as
sets are more than $55.000.000. The
company's mortgage debt at any time
outstanding is limited to rs per cent. of
the value of its mortgaged properties.
The company covenants to maintain net
assets of at least $50 per cent. Of its
total funded debt and current assets of
at least 140 per cent. Of its current
liabilities. A sinking fund OF per cent.
