Break in United Drug

Heavy offerings of United Drug
stock in late trading yesterday formed
one of the features of the day. The
attack carried the shares down to 73 ~
a loss of nearly 10 points from the
highest of the day. The net decline Of
8B points was the sharpest on the
list, and revived rumors which had
been current for some time that un-
favorable action might be taken on
dividends at the next meeting of di-
rectors a month or so hence. Officials
Of United Drug and Kidder, Peabody &
Co., underwriters Of the recent S15,-
100000 bond issue, professcd to know
Of no developments in the company
which might be construed as adverse
A company official refused to discuss
the probable dividend action. 1t was
assumed in Wall Street circles that
the sale of the bond issue would per
nit the company to readjust itself t.
changed conditions, but what progress
has been made since the bond fotation
is not generally known.

The Dollar in Foreign Exchange

A rally followed early easiness in
foreign exchange yesterday, but the
dullness which has characterized trad
ing for several weeks continued and
transactions were in small volume.
Cable rates on London showed frac-
tlonal advance at the closing figure of
$S.57 9-16, against $3.57s Monday.
Continental rates followed the same
trend as a rule. showing slight net
gains at the close, although Norwegian,

Brazilian milreis and the Uruguayan

No Foreign Financing Near

With the improvement in the bond
market continuing, new offerings re-

sues, mainly to municipal. public utility
and industrial offerings. There has been
some talk of more international financ-

reports. Regarding the intimation that
Norway might come into this market
for funds, bankers said no Scandinavian
business was imminent, and there was
little likelihood of Norwegian financing

Foreign Selling?

During the selling of United Drug
one sale reported by the ticker was
tagged IS 3O' and another as 60"
meaning that the seller reserved the
right to deliver the stock any time
within thirty or sixty days, as the
case might be. To some this meant
that the selling came from abroad, but
others thought that the sale might
have been made here simply to give
the impression of foreign liquidation.

HAVE TRAITS ALMOST HUMAN
In Their Primal instincts, the Beasts
Are Not So Greatly Removed
From Mankind.

Susette, former star chimpanzee,
now in the New York Geological park,
who recently gave birth to the second
Of the species ever born In captivity,
gave evidence Of JOY in motherhood
closely akin to human. Susette Rugged
her baby close to her and. resented the
approach Of the too curious stranger.
And although Papa Bona did not pass
cigars to celebrate the arrival, he
showed hysterical Joy that mother and
child were doing as well as could be
expected. Papa Bona acted very much
like the human father under similar
circumstances, only the human father
has conventionalized his expression Of
Joy.
Research has done much to narrow
the chasm once thought to exist be
tween the highest animal and lowest
man. Give articulate speech to a
horse and he would shame his master
out of fnany practices. AS it is, he
speaks plainly enough with his imper-
feet resources. Animals may or may
not have language that they use be-
tween themselves, but at least they
have ways of expressing their emotions
through the slant OF the ears, the bris-
Ting of their hairy coats, the wagging
of tails, through yelp, bark or purr.-

NOT HARD TO WIN SUCCESS
Mistake to Imagine II Calls for Ex-
traordinary Skill and Cease
less Endeavor.

There is a glamor about success
and the men who have succeeded, but
both also have dark side, which is
too often emphasized. 1t has been our
observation that from their elders the
young men and women Of today have
received the impression that success
Is difficult to attain and comes only
as the result of extraordinary skin
and ceaseless endeavor. Hence the
cry: 1.-THE world is against mel" or
the pitiful wall: II wish Icould do
something big. but can't"
As a matter of fact this is an easy
world to get along in. All that Is re-
Quired Of anyone is willingness to
work and to learn. To be honest, to
be cheerful, to be patient in adversely
and kind to the troubled; to be fair
with your neighbors and true to your
self are not difficult tasks, yet these
are the guide posts to happiness and
success.
Most Of our leading men and wom-
en- are ordinary people who have done
all these things well and have borne
their responsibilities to the best Of
their ability.-Detroit Free Press.

velvet BEANS MAKE
GOOD GRAZING CROP
Excellent for Cattle and Hogs in
Fall and Winter.
Usual Period for Pasturing Is About
Three Months but This May Be
Heightened or Shortened as
Deemed Advisable.

Velvet beans are an important graz
ing crop for cattle and hogs in the
South in autumn and winter, accord
ing to specialists Of the United States
Department of Agriculture. They are
not grazed we'll by horses or mules,
or by any live stock until after they
are we'll matured or frosted. AS the
leaves, vines and pods decay but slow
ly when subjected to weather condi-
lions, velvet beans will furnish feed
until early spring. 1t is usually bet
ter to let the crop stand until it is
well matured,- or until it is killed by
frost, as the leaves will be off the
plants at that time and the corn which
has been planted at the same time
may be gathered with less difficulty.
The amount Of grazing which will
be afforded will, Of course vary with
the growth Of the crop and the guam
tity of corn not gathered, but it is the
custom with many cattlemen to allow
one-third to one-half acre month for
each steer or cow The usual period
for pasturing velvet beans is about
three months, but this may be short
ened or heightened as deemed advis-
able. When the period is longer be-
cause of large acreage in proportion
to the number of cattle there is nee
essarily some loss Of feed through de-
cay
Hogs should be permitted to follow
the cattle. as they will consume prac-
tically all the beans which the cattle
allow one or two hogs in addition to
the cattle for each acre of beans. A
good stand of velvet beans should
| produce about $50 pounds of beef and
100 pounds Of pork an acre.

Thousands Have Kidney
Trouble and Never
Suspect It
Applicants for Insurance Often
Rejected.

Judging from reports from druggists
who are constantly in direct touch with
the public, there is one preparation that
has been very successful in overcoming
these conditions. The mild and healing
influence Of Dr.. Kilmer's Swamp Root il
soon realized. It stands the highest for
its remarkable record of success.
An examining physician for one of the
prominent Life Insurance Companies, in
IN interview on the subject, made the as.
tonishing statement that one reason why
30 many applicants for insurance are re-
jected is because kidney trouble is so
common to the American people, and the
large majority Of those whose applica-
tions are declined do not even suspect
that they have the disease. It is on sale
at all drug stores in bottles Of two sizes,
medium and large.

CLEAN COWPEAS
MOST VALUABLE
Dealer Reaps Profit for Doing
Work That the Grower Neg
Iects to Perform.
WIDE Difference IN PRICE
Despite Commercial Shortage and
Hiah Market Prices Producers Do
Not Sell More-Specialists
Give Timely Advice.

Until the growers see fit to place
their cowpeas on the market in
clean and attractive condition they
may expect the wide difference be-
tween the price they receive and the
Wholesale price charged by the dealer to
continue, say marketing specialists OF
the bureau Of markets, United States
Department of Agriculture. When the
dealer is compelled to do work that
the grower fails to perform, 1t is the
dealer who enjoys the profits.
Marketing Factors.
According to estimates prepared by
the bureau of markets some 1OO,OOO,OOO
pounds of cowpeas enter commercial
channels every year. OF this quantity
Is per cent is of mixed varieties and
sold at discount of from so cents to
81 per 100 pounds. A large percentage
Of it also is made up Of poorly
thrashed, unelean stock containing
much foreign matter and packed in

cient marketing methods the average

QUALITY is URGENT FACTOR
Striking Example Furnished by Ken
tuekian, Who Markets Eggs,
Poultry and Fruit.

An example Of the part that quality
plays in a business of direct marketing
Of farm produce is furnished by the ex-
perience of q man in Kentucky who
markets eggs, dressed poultry, meats
and fruits to consumers in Nashville,
Tenn.
The business was established over
two years ago by obtaining friend
MS the first customer. From this mod
est beginning the producer has OBJ
tanned sufficient customers to buy all
of the high-grade produce he can sup
ply. Most of the shipments are made
by parcel post.
This business Is conducted on the
basis Of high quality with adequate re
turns, says the United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture. Customers are
selected with as much care as mos1
consumers show in selecting a pro
Queer from whom to buy farm produce
Customers are retained by never
breaking the rule to supply only thu
best produce raised on his own farm
II, when an order Is obtained. thi'
farmer does not have produce OF TIT
highest quality, he informs the custom
er and states that unless otherwise In
structed the produce will be shippes
at the earliest possible date.

per cent higher than the average price
paid the growers for the 1919 crop OF
cowpeas. Similar conditions prevailed
with regard to the 1917 and 1919 crops.
To secure higher prices for cowpeas,
specialists of the bureau Of markets
who have made careful investigation
Of the matter recommend the following
practices:
/. Clean cowpeas thoroughly before
marketing. All hulls and other foreign
matter, as well as light and immature
seed, II any, should be famed out.
2. Keep the varieties pure. Only
straight varieties should be planted for
grain or seed production, and precau-
lions taken to prevent mixing at har-
vest time.
8. Sack in new overweight bags,
well sewed. This prevents waste in
handling and the package will be more
attractive to the buyer.
4. Market in as large lots as posi-
BILE. It costs the shipper or local deal
er practically as much money to re-
ceive, weigh, record and pay for one
bag Of cowpeas as 1t does q ten-bag
lot. If carslots are available the cost
Of handling per unit is still smaller.
All efforts made by farmers or grow
ers to improve the quality and mar
reliability Of cowpeas add to the ini-
tial selling price.
Cause Of Shortage.
Cowpeas are usually grown as q
catch crop, and on most farms regard
ed OF secondary commercial impor-
/ lance. Yet the farm value of cowpeas
produced in the United States is some
| thing like $50 ,OO0. 900 year. Approx
imately 10000, 900 pounds of cowpeas
are produced annually, about As pei
cent or 100000 900 pounds of which
| is required for planting. OF this latter
quantity Is per cent Is sold by growers
direct to farmers and 80 per cent nor
mally enters commercial channels to
be distributed by various dealers. In
1919, and again in 1920. the demand
for cowpeas for planting purposes ex-
/! ceeded the commercial new crop sup
ply, and abnormally high prices pre-
vailed. Despite this shortage and the
high prices, practically no EFFORT wa
made to increase the commercial sup
ply.
In the opinion Of the bureau Of mar
kets the commercial shortage was not
due to decreased production, but tc
