AND ACTIVE IN
EARLY TRADING
Under Heavy Buying Demand
Low Priced Rails

NEW YORK, May 25.-The fea-
ture of the stock market in the early
trading today was the strength and
the activity of the low-priced rail.
road shares, led by Erie and partici-
pated in by Wabash, Rock Island,
and st. Louis and San Francisco.
Under a heavy buying demand all
three of the Erie stocks sold at the
highest price of the year. The COM
mon stock advanced IN to 1SA, the
first preferred 29s to 27%, and the
second preferred TO 20L. These
prices represent an advance of over
100 per cent since the middle OF
January.
While April returns are expected
to make much more favorable
showing than March, Erie earned at
a rate slightly better than 4 per. cent
In that month. Larger earnings
and smaller operating expenses have
provided Erie with a net operating
income for the first quarter of the
current year totaling more than
81 500, 900, compared with a deficit
of over 81 100000 reported for the
same period last year.

able kind, her car loadings for last
week being the largest OF the year.
Assurances from representatives
Of Bethlehem and Lackawanna that
nothing would be done to bring
about Federal interference with the
proposed consolidation caused
strength in the Independent steel
stocks. Bethlehem B was active at
a slight advance to 70, Republic sold
up to IS. compared with yesterdays g
close at 72Ss, and Midvale at 44L
was 2 points higher than yesterdays 3
low.
Sinclair on and Texas Company
were the most active Of the oil group
in the early trading. A report that
Standard OIL Of Indiana would alb.
sorb the Sinclair Company was
branded as an absurdity by Presi-
dent II. +. Sinclair. The recent
weakness OF Texas Company was at
tributed to the liquidation OF n CON
siderable block OF this stock which
was held by two estates. The stock
sold at 497s today, fractionally be-
low its high for the year.
American Ice joined the active list
again today and sold up to IlOh on

Thomas "A. Edison.

Mr.. Edison's plan for agricultural
relief Is to provide orderly market
ing and a scheme of finance, to re-
heVe the farmers of the necessity
OF dumping their crops on the
market at harvest In order to meet
their bank maturities.
The plan is being studied by the
OFFICIALS, but the first reaction to it
mere Is that 1t would bring about
heavy initiation of an undesirable
character and put the Government
in the business of competing with
Its citizens and preferring one class.
The cost would depend upon the ex.
tent to which the plan would be
used by farmers, but, IL used by any
large number, billions in Govern
ment credit would be required,

BULLETIN BOARD IN KITCHEN
AS AN EDUCATIONAL MEDIUM

81 Once knew \ home that had =
bulletin board in the kitchen--a fam
ily bulletin board said Charlotte n.
Baker. Librarian of Colorado Agrieul-
tural college to the editor Of News
Notes.
"What was the big idea," asked the
editor. "Was it used for posting n
list of infractions Of rules by the
kiddies, or for recording fathers daily
failures ?"
Nothing SO frivolous" was the
reply. This bulletin board was used
for educational purposes The house
wife pinned up her church and club
notices, her dates for entertainments
or meetings; her daily reminders of
duties TO be done. She cut timely ar
ticles from the papers, or pictures and
rare prints from. Sunday issues for
entertainment of the children, or an
occasional poem. Anything good to
look at, or that would serve as a
means of interesting the children or
grown ups in the family, was put up
on the board. It is an idea with pos
sibilities which you may pass along
to the rural homes Of Colorado

CLOTHING KITS AID CLUBS
IN SEWING DEMONSTRATIONS

An unusual feature Of the clothing
work In Kansas, carried on by extern
sion workers during the past year,
as reported to the United States De-
partment Of Agriculture, was the
sending Of sets OF clothing kits to
the girls clubs in the various coun-
ties.
Each kit contained Z sample patch,
. sample darn an iron holder, two
aprons, sewing bag laundry bag,
. night gown, undsrskirt, princess
slip combination suit, smock, child's
dress, rompers. dresser scarf and a.
so charts showing appropriate school
dresses and books Of illustrAtions aD-
propriate materials TO select for tie
different articles- The kits were
sent to the county extension agents,
who In turn were responsible for
getting them to the clubs. Excspt
FOR four clubs In three counties which
received no kits, every club In the
state had IN opportunity to examine
these articles to obtain patterns and

The ability of rsisins to rcvitalize

them an ideal warm-weather food
For that reason. raisin food Of all
kinds should be most popular through
out the summer. Many everyday
meals are composed Of plain foods
that can be made doubly attractive
and healthful by the addition Of this
luscious California fruit.
The most popular dish OF the sum.
mer-ice cream-when favored with
raislns, is not only cooling con
fection. but one that helps to take
away the listlessness caused BY warm
weather. The cooling qualities Of Ice
cream are but temporary relief. II
Ii pointed out. Combined with the
delicious flavor Of raisins. Il II truly
q delightful. healthful dish.
The sugar in raisins Is In practically
predlgesfed form, and Ii turned into
energy almost Immediately. This re-
visalizing quality Of the raisin makes
this fruit-food boon to warm
weather fatigue and listlessness.
Other foods than Ice cream gain, u
taste and health benefit when flav.
cred with raisins. The ordinary loaf
Of white bread Il changed to a de
lightful favorlte In almost every
household by the simple addition OF
raislns. The luscious sugar-sauce
flows from the rnlsins into the dough
during the baking. giving the whole
loaf most delicious flavor.

mitted to exceed that Of other fruits,

and winter alike. In easily assimila

A raisin product at least once {

men indefensibly unversed in the geography
Of our Republic and their expressed mis-
conceptions merit the laughter of the know
ing.
The true humorist, however, as Mark
Twain pointed out in his famous contro-
versy with Paul Bourget, should be willing
to swap jokes. Most Americans can locate
London with fair accuracy, but can they do
as much for Birmingham, Manchester,
Strntford- on Avon. Leeds. Bristol?
Can we name the various shires and ft
them correctly into the map Of England?
Are we in general aware that Cornwall is
not a shire ut all and can we tell, ofhand,
what is its correct ascription?
If we should read n dispatch dated Leeds,
Derbyshire, would we burst into uncon-
trollable laughter? Would it be as anus
ing to us to hear traveller say that he
went down to London from Liverpool as to
hear report Of a journey up East from
New York to Boston?
Ambassador Geddes who knows how to
make friends, has propounded no questions
of this sort. He knows when to let good
joke alone.
We are, all Of US. of course. quite justi-
fed in extracting the utmost mirth from
English blunders in American geography.
The Britisher has no right to cut $50 cx-
travagantly ridiculous n figure. But IL he
retaliates by quizzing us concerning his own
country it is the part Of wisdom to retire
as gracefully as possible Only thus can
the traditions of gigantic one sided conf
cality be preserved.

THE OHIO SKlRMISH

INTEREST in the Ohio primaries centers
i around their relation to President Hard
ing. There was no fight between the radi-
cal and conservative, the reform and the
organization wings Of the Republican Party
There was fight, however, between the
drys and the vets, with the result favoring
the dryss
So far as the President was involved, he
has won. His friend. Carmi Thompson, has
secured the nomination for the governor
ship. This means that the Republicans Of
the State are willing to follow the lead of
Mr. Harding.
Representative Fess, who won the nom-
nation for the senatorship, was the organi-
zation candidate. He will have back Of
him the support Of the regular party lead
ers, the leaders who brought Mr.. Harding to
the attention Of the Nation as n presi.
dential candidate and succeeded in persuad-
ing the delegates to the National Convention
to nominate him.
Senator Pomerene has been renominated
by the Democrats. They hope to elect him
and then, if they succeed, they hope to make
him the candidate for the presidency In
1024. They argue that If he can carry
President Harding's own State this year
against n candidate who will naturally have
the support of Mr.. Harding he can carry
the State again in 1924, and will thus be
the most available presidential candidate
within his party.
So the election in Ohio in November will
be a skirnish preliminary to the greater
battle two years later. AS the Ohio Re-
publicans are aware of all this, they can be
trusted to present united front to the
opposition and fight Pomercne with all the
weapons at their command. And the Re-
publican National Committee also can be
trusted to fill the State with the best cam.
paigncrs at its command in order to pre-.
serve the prestige of the President in his
own State.

of its citizens who we're incidental spectators

Of its citizens who were incidental spectators
Of the Herrin riot.
Mexico has somehow or other acquired the
notion that human life is insecure up North
and is aggrieved she should be censured for
the kidnapping of Bruce Bielaski or, indeed,
any sort of depredations upon foreigners
when Americans indulge in the massacre
habit.
But Mexico is. as usual. wrong. Her Gov
ernmcnt and that of the United States upon
which she has directed her barbs of diplo-
matte satire should be reconciled. They are
partners in woe. The State Department of
the United States cannot explain the case
to the plaintiff for the substantial reason
that no report of the Herrin murder has
ever been made to Federal officials by the
Governor of Illinois.
That branch Of the administration Of this
Government which represents 1t in foreign
affairs undoubtedly regrets a savage affront
to Mexican citizenship. But what can the
State Department do? 1t is as much in the
dark as benighted Mexico.
Mr.. Hughes cannot answer his qucstioners.
What he and the Federal Government de-
serve is not verbal chastisement but u
brothcrly hand clasp in commiseration.
