Burbank Is Host to
Southern Teachers

SANTA ROSA, Cal. Oct 11.-Charmed
with the rare Southern type of beauty
possessed by forty fair school mistreSses
from South Carolina and Virginia,
Luther Burbank briefly ceased his work
among his plants and flowers recently to
greet the visitors from afar. The educa-
tors have been attending the summer
school at the University of California.
and before coming to California had
promised themselves a visit to Santa
Rosa to see Burbank
Tho wizard Of agriculture conducted
the party in person through his gardens
and explained many things of interest
concerning plant life to them, and what
the school ma'ams" did not ask was
probably what they had forgotten. As
a souvenir Of their visit. Burbank
presented each visitor with one of his
flower creations, and the recipients car
ried it off with glee and 4 promise that
by the pressing process the flower should
be preserved for years. Some of the fair
visitors pressed the flower to their lips
as compliment TO the distinguished
assistant to nature.

NEW YORK, Oct. 11.-Monday's stock

(By Thomson & McKinnon)


The volume of business on the stock
exchange continues moderate. Public
interest is very limited with the excep-
ton of the oil group of stocks. These
stocks continue to be the features of the
market The Buying of these shares Is
encouraged by the favorable turn In the
crude oil market and the advancing
prices. which, of course, add materially
to the revenue of the companies, as well
as enhancing the value Of the reserve
supplies. 49,
The notable exceptions are Mexican
Petroleum and the Pan Petroleum issues.
In these stocks. liquidation appears at
frequent intervals and after every bulge.
The fluctuations in Mexican Petroleum
are so erratic as to discourage trading
and therefore # there is any short in
tereSt il is probably confined TO the pro-
fessonal element.
The news from the steel industry is
entirely satisfactory. Those who were
overly optimistic may be disappointed
because of the moderate increase shown
in the steel tonnage, but the significance
is in the change that has occurred.
We have emerged from long perlou
of decreasing business and have entered
the period of expansion. 1t may be small
today, but it may be large In lie"
months from now. ,,,.,-
The news from Washington Is little
better. They are making some progress
now on the tax bill.
This market may continue Irregular
for a while, but We are OF the opinion
that ultimately the move Of importance
will be in an upward direction.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 11--Of the nations

Nov. IL to discuss disarmament Japan.
as a nation, has the most to gain fnan-
clalIy, it is indicated in unofficial figures
gathered here and made public today.
Despite this evidence Japan has been
the leading 0bjector TO the procedure, al
though on the face of the figures referred
TO the Japanese have everything to gain
and nothing to lose by an economy pre-
gram; for, in spite Of the comparatively
enormous increase in that country's pros
perlty during the war, Japan IS stdgger-
ing today under an armament program
which still is short of what the japanese
'Junkers" would like to have It. Taere
are strong reasons, however, for not Only
showing prudence in attempting to com
pete with other nations in an armament
race, but in Japan endeavoripg to secure
from the other nations an agreement TO
discontinue the present schedule.
One reason is that it costs the japanese
subject just eight times as much to main
tain his navy as it does the American citi-
zen TO carry his ships along. according to
the unofficial figures gathered here.
According to these figures, based on
population, earning power and expendi-
ture. the percentage OF RELATIVELY of the
naval burden over carrying capacity is
in the United States, /; Great Britain. 10.
or nearly double Americas unit, and ia
pan, - per cent, or nearly eight times
what it costs the individual American.
The population of the United States IS
10J.000000. Great Britain, 1900 600, and
Japan, 5G.OO0OOO. In this connection, the
statistics reveal, the cost Of the British
navy is borne entirely by the British Isles
AMI not by cOntributory colonies. The
average annual earnings per capita Of
these countries are: United States s. 600
Great Britain, S1,G00, and Japan, 500
The total annual earnings are: United

ure is g by the United States; Great

This proportionate expenditure out of

eral populations, increases or decreases

White, Black Pastor.
Regular Gun TOter

C.LARKSBCRG, W. Va. Oct. II
White, black, is in Jail. No. this isn't a
color scheme nor a checker game. It's
about the Rev. J. White, negro preacher
Of Eeynoldsville. At least. he is en-.
tilted to prefix the ministerial title to his
name.
The Rev. Mr.. White was entirely TOO
mandy with his gun. There is a drastic
antl-weapon statue in West Virginia
famed far and wide as the johnson anti
pistol-toting law. Aud the least a mag
istrate or judge can do under it is to fine
man $50 and SLAP him in Jail for nor
less than six months.
The Reynoldsville preacher was lucky
at that, rs he drew the minimum sen
tehce, which was imposed in Magistrate
L. &. Nicewarner's court. Mrs. Lorena
, Taylor of ReynOldsville, swore that the
Rev J. White not only "toted' the gun
contrary to law therein made and pro-
vided, but that he also drew it upon her
and threatened TO kill her with it.

Local packers bought around 5000 Of
the receipts, Kingan II Co. taking 5000.
Receipts in cattle were large. and this,
connected with the flooded condition Of

ers and cows and barely steady on bulls
