SPRING DUROCS SELL
FOR AVERAGE OF S2S
AT DR.. FUNK AUCTION

River-Dale farm, lying about one
mile north of Middleboro, just east of
the pike, was the scene of a consid-
cradle gathering of Duroc Jersey
fanciers, on Wednesday afternoon.
The occasion was the D. R. Funk pure
bred Duroc sale of spring gifts and
boars, likely offering of some of the
choicest strains of the breed. Fifty
head went under the hammer, the sale
beginning at l O'Clock.
Leaden skies and a pouring rain on
Wednesday forenoon gave way to
brilliant sunshine just before II
o'clock. But rain would not have kept
any Duroc breeder at home, nor would
it have interfered with the sale. which
was pulled off in one of the largest
barns in the county, comfortably seat
ed with straw bales in tiers Col. H.
L. Igleheart, of Elizabethtown, Ky, &C.
cupied the auction block, with Simon
Weddle and Albert Hindman in the
show ring.
Top Boar Brings $4s
Hog prices are not on the upward
trend just now, this applying to reg
istered as well as to market stock
Buyers at all pure-bred sales SO far
held this season have been rather
hesitant nd wary as to high prices,
and this goes for all breeds of swine.
THE top on spring boars, $4S, was
paid by Willis Estes. of Greenfield
said Mr.. Funk, land the average price
was S2S." Mr.. Funk admitted that
prices had ranged lower than any
| breeder of choice stock might reason
ably expect but said he was making
no complaint on that score.
The Numerous Buyers
| Among the men whose names ap-
peared on the sales sheets at the wind
up the following were noted: Ebert
Kemp, Caldwell and Son, Corners
vile; Chas NJ Bellman, Earl Mitchell,
John Jackson, George Wilhelm, New
| Paris; E. W. Estes. Greenfield; Harry
| Gilbert, Clayton Hunt, A. Kuhn, OF

Our Export Wheat Surplus
While the general trade estimate is
that the United States has around 200,-
10000 bushels wheat for export this
season, A. L. Russell, the New York
statistician, points out that on the
pre-war basis of figuring, domestic re-
quirements this season are $4,000, 600
bushels, which would allow only 215,-
100000 bushels for export and for car
ry over. Apparent distribution last year
was 524,000,000 bushels, and in the
previous year ga, 100000 bushels, in.
Guiding seed. On the basis of the
same consumption as last year there
would be 343,000,000 bushels this year
for export and carry over OF this, ex.
ports to September were around us,
100000 bushels, and there is probab bly,
30.000,000 bushels more sold to go out
which would still leave around 100,
100000 bushels for export plus ar
equal amount for carry over On the
basis of pre-war requirements the
| United States has already sold its en-
tire surplus, while on the basis of las
| seasons actual consumption there i:
1OO,00O,000 bushels left for export.

RUSSIAN GOVERNMENT
SHIFTS ALL BURDENS
TO manufacturers
CBy Associated Press

MOSCOW, Sept 22.-Everywhere
throughout Russia the Soviet govern
ment is unloading responsibilities it
is unable to meet. Factory workers
are being urged to obtain their own
materials, run their own affairs and
obtain their own food.
"Decentralize; do it yourselves and
do not depend upon the government
for anything" is the burden of in
structions broadcasted by the govern
ment since domestic free trade was
instituted and the new economic pol
icy of the Bolsheviki was declared.
Provincial officials. labor unions, CO
operative societies and famine relief
committees are all told the same
thing.
NJ. Kalinin, chairman of the Rus
sian general committee for famine re-
lief, chose this admonition as the
text of his speeches during his re-
cent tour of the famine areas. He be-
rated local officials for turning their
eyes toward Moscow, and urged them
to go out and get food themselves,
in districts where it was obtainable.
Changing Departments.
Departments are being reduced and
large numbers of men are being thrown
out of work. Those who have been
receiving food have been paced on
reduced rations and workmen in ma
tionaliZed factories are being paid in
manufactured products, or in money
instead of food, so that the food re-
sponsibilities of the government may
be lightened.
1t seems however that Russians with
the exception of the extreme commun-
lists are pleased with the government S
change of policy. Attempts at general
Capitalization of everything proved SO
disastrous for three years that it is
probable anything new would be vel
come as possibly promising relief for
| the average citizen. Communists stout
| ~ insist that the war and the blockade
were wholly responsible for the break
down of the communistic plans and
are explaining that the new system
adopted is really modified communism
and not capitalism. 1t is impossible
however, to find peasants holding land
who will admit the government owns
| the soil.
! Suspect Capitalism.
Apart from the ardent communists
there seems to be a general opinion
!
sions to operate industries is only
camouf1aged capitalism. The military
control that is being exercised and
communist party discipline are sc
strong the soviet government apparent
ly has not been weakened, by its
change of policy, tired of strife, is
hopeful that further changes in the
economic policy of the government vii
be made.
/ Outside the famine area, the condi
ton of peasants is much easier under
the new plan, which fixes a definite
amount which must be paid in pro
ducts, and guarantees the peasants
against acquisitions above that amount
1t also enables growers to sell or ex
change their surplus foodstuffs with
out violation of the law.
The employment problem with win
ter at hand and little fuel available
threatens to become acute, however
1t is far more serious in Russian in
dustrial centers then in countrie;
avowedly capitalistic. where the fooC
situation in country districts is easie
and transportation is under less rigit
control than in Russia.

Cotton Spindles Active
October Figures Higher Than
September and Last Year

Cotton spindle activity during
October was greater than in Septem-
Der or October of last year, accord
ing to figures published by the De-
partnent OF Commerce. The report
states that S4,221 $40 cotton spindies
were operated at some time during
October, compared with 33,s9S,415 for
September, 1921, and 33,771,9s8 for
October, 1920. The aggregate number
Of spindle hours for the month was
1888 ,S42,519. Based on an activity
OF twenty-five and one-half DAYS,
allowance being made fer the obser-
vance OF Columbus Day in some
states, for S.s hours daily, the
average number of spindles operated
for the month was 24,579,765, com
pared with 1892 S31 for September.
The average spindle hours for each ac-
tive spindle for the country were 2o2
for the month, the average reaching
249 in the cotton growing states and
1879 in all other states. Massachusetts,
showed an average of 1873, and New

Baltimore & Ohio
Regaining Traffic
Lost During War
Report Shows Ten
dency to Win Back Busi-
ness; Gross Revenues In
crease 27 p. G.. in 1920

The report of the Baltimore & Ohio
Railroad for the year 1920, made pub-
he at the annual meeting of stock
holders Yesterday, showed that the
company had regained much of the
trafiic, which, under Federal contr, 81.
was diverted in order to keep it's stra~
logically located Eastern lines open for
tle movement of fuel, steel and muni-
tiens to the seaboard.
:, One OF the features of the report wns
INC revelation that with private opera
tion, resumed two months aftar the he
ginning of 1920, that year, as u whole
witnessed the performance of q per
cent greater train service, measured
In ten-mile units, than in the previous
year.
Gross revenues Of S2s1,o44,443 m
creased s49 .324 d27, or 81 per cent over
those OF 1919 and new high record.
AS corporation the Baltimore q Ohio
made up it's income account for 1890
by adding the Federal compensation
for the first two months, $4,S03 ,696,
the guaranteed income for the fol
lowing six months, $15,189, ,722, and
the net income from operations
of the last four months, $6,9T7,754,
making q total of $26,971 ,172 available
from the use of the railroad. To this
WAS added So,oJS. 800 income from in
vestments and miscellaneous minor
sources, and so, after the deduction of
$536,S77 for war taxes and corporate
expenses of the first two months (Which
were not elsewhere taken into the ac-
counts) made gross corporate income
of $31,234,154. This was the sum avail
able for interest charges and minor
deductions, which aggregated $24,5SS,
SIS.
Of the balance of S7,245,4 ,480, which
was the surplus income for the year
over the disposal of which the manage
ment was free to exercise some degree
of discretion, only S2,354,531 was paid
out in dividends, and that to the hold
ers of the company's $58,863,275 pre-
ferred stock. Most of the remainder,
or $4,000 600, was used for the redernp
tion of funded debt outstanding.
An increase in the conpanys in
terest charges for the year of S2,3l9,
800 was due in part to the funding of
expenditures made during the Federal
control period, and was accompanied
by a reduction of S844,159 in interest
on unfundod debts and accounts. The
company issued during the year ST.
578,500 equipment trust certificates
and a ten-yesr note for So 100000 to
the government in payment on account
of equipment allocated and additions
and betterments made during the
twenty-six months of Federal control.

Continued Rise in Raw Silk
Features Textile Markets
Advance Believed Specula-
tive, but Faith in Ability of
Prices To Hold Is Growing

The continued climb upward of raw
silk yesterday attracted much atten~
ticn, not only in the silk trade, but in
the other textile Industries. Local raw
silk brokers are inclined to look upon
the great rise in raw silk prices as
Caused by speculation only, asserting
that there Is nothing iil the domestic
silk goods industry to justify the. re-
cent advances. On the other hand,
there is more belief in the ability of
the Japanese to hold present prices and
possibly force the market still higher
than there was week or two ago.
Cables from Yokohama reported the
silk market there as active and aAvanc.
ing. Local prices were quoted higher
in sympathy, but trading was said to
be restricted and confined only to fill
ing in lots, American users of raw silk
apparently being unwilling to commit
themselves to future contracts at pres
ent prices.
The primary or unfinished cotton
goods market was quiet, with prices un-
changed from last weeks closing. The
raw cotton situation now controls this
market for the time being. and brokers
do not anticipate great activity in cloth
until the cotton market shows more
life.
