Exchange Plans Outlined.

Mr.. Cromwell made known in his
speech before the Association of Stock
Exchange Firms that the exchange
has set it's face against the tricks and
frauds by which anti-bucketing laws
are evaded, and indicated then some
of the measures that must be taken.
They include regular examination of
the condition OF Stock Exchange firms
by proper exchange representatives
and Independent accountants In order
that the members Of the exchange col
lectively may assure themselves OF the
condition of one another's affairs; and,
in Mr.. Cromwell's own words:
There are certain facts which we
(the members of tho New York Stock
ICxchange) must know about those
firms who carry stocks on margin for
the public. We must know the rcla-
tion between their free capital and
heir commitments. We must know the

citation Of Stock Exchange Firms q
month ago, when he declared that the
time has come for drastic measures
against bucketing.
Holds Control or Tickers.
The New York Stock Exchange is
particularly well equipped for such a
task in that 1t has complete control
over its ticker service. and, being as 1t
is, the primary market, 1t Is impossible
for a stock broker to do business with
out access to the quotations of that
exchange. Removal of the New York
Stock Exchange ticker service, there
erful weapon against illegal trading in
stocks and bonds.
There was a time when this ex-
change could not exercise that power
so efficiently as now, but through the
revision of its contract with the West
ern Union Telegraph Company some
years ago its power to say, on evil
dence of honesty or dishonesty, who
shall and shall not be entitled to that
service now Is absolute
Even the Consolidated quotations
are based on the New York Stock Ex-
change service, and without that SER
vice it is not likely that the Consoli-
dated would be able TO continue in ex-
istence. The New York Stock Ex-
change, however, under an injunction
obtained by the Consolidated Exchange,
could not arbitrarily remove its SER
vice from that exchange as an organ
ization. 1t can and does compel on
showing of evil doing, removal OF it's
tickers from the use of members of
the Consolidated Exchange. The Con-
solidated also may act on its own in
itiativc.
Cam Order Boycotts.
The New York Stock Exchange also
is in position to bring pressure to bear
to end unlawful operations Of nom
members OF the exchange, whether
they be members of the Consolidated.
Curb or no exchange, by compelling
its own members to cease to do busi-
ness with such concerns when the off,
cials OF the New York Stock Exchange
have reason to fear illegal transac-
tions.
The Consolidated, OF course, occupies
that position also in relation to its
own members, and the exercise of that
power by both 1t and the New York
Stock Exchange is reflected in very
considerable degree in some of the re-
cent failures. though some OF such
failures doubtless have been due to
other causes.
The Consolidated has suffered to a
much greater extent from these fail
ures than has the New York Stock
Exchange. The failure Of Wagner a
Co. last autumn and the assignment OF
George w. Kendrick Sd & Co, which
holds % seat on the New York Stock
Exchange. represent the extent to
date OF the visible effect OF the cur
rent situation on the New York
Stock Exchange. Other failures. how
ever. have made extremely stiff in
roads into the membership OF the Con-
solidatcd. The effect of future fail
ures, if any. and In what direction they
will strike, Of course cannot be pre-
dicted.
The New York Stock Exchange.
however, has a well formulated plan
already In operation to clean up the
bucketing situation and its ramifica-
tions and to reach not only its own
members in need of correction. but to
go to the utmost limit OF its sphere Of
influence.

An Unappreciated Grass

Economic, conditions are forcing
us to give more and more considera-
ton to the establishment of perma-
ment pastures. This condition is
bound to be intensified with the
lapse of years. The farmer who
is wise in his day and generation
will, therefore, begin to prepare for
: the obvious changes which are
coming in our agriculture. To this
end, a wide acquaintance with
grasses becomes essential, and
hence, a description of the charac-
teristics and habits of one of the
most valuable grasses for use in
pastures in the southeastern states
is appropriate at this time. Carpet
grass has long been known with
more or less favor throughout the
south. It is also known as the
Louisiana grass. 1t is undoubtedly
the most desirable and valuable
grass to use in permanent pasture
mixtures on the sandy soils Of the
coastal plains region of the south
eastern states. Like many other
good crops which, have been intro
duced, it's merits have long remain
ed unappreciated, and it is now not
grown on anything like the area of
land to which it is adapted. Its ex-
nance the value Of much Of our idle
land, add greatly to it's carrying ca
pacity for beef and dairy cattle and
furnish the basis on which to estab-
lish great live stock industries.
This grass is not Indigenous to. the
United States, but was introduced
into the southern states about 1880.
1t came from tropical America. 1t
. was known to exist in Peru, Chile,
Brazil and Mexico prior to 1880. Just
how it reached the United States
is a matter Of dispute, but having
once become well established on the
Islands Of the Caribbean sea and in
Mexico, it is not surprising that it
found it's way into the southern
states. -
. This grass is one Of the greatest
rivals which Bermuda has for the
favor Of the southern landowner and
stock grower. 1t certainly has an
equal carrying capacity to Bermuda,
and its nutritive qualities are of a
high order. Moreover, it does well
on soils to which Bermuda is not
well adapted and where the latter
grass will only succeed when given
the most favorable conditions for
growth and development. Undoubt-
edly, this grass would have come
into wide public favor and general
cultivation had live stock farming
been engaged in on an extensive
scale at an earlier period in the
history of the south. The cattle
tick which was so destructive to i'm
proved live stock and held such sway
throughout the length and breadth
Of the south for many years I'M
doubtedly held our animal industries
in check. Now that this pest has
been brought under control and
the greater part Of the land which
+. it once infested has been released
forever from it's depredations, there
is a renewed interest in the cultiva-
ton Of grasses which promises
revolution in our present agricul-
tural practice. Investigations indi-
cate that carpet grass is well adapt
ed for growth on at least one-thlrd
. OF that area Of land which is known
as the coastal plans region. When
this grass has been established even
on a part of the land in question,
we will have added very materially

THE PROGRESSIVE FARMER AND THE MODERN HOUSEWIFE
THE COUNTRY HOME
BY MRS. W. H. FELTON,

she had been living, and really knew
enough about my seatmate to know
she had a good farm and good land.
I comforted her by saying, well,
you can go back home if you are
not satisfied. Not many people like
you and I are always satisfied to
give up home and live with Others"
"But I can't do that, because my
boys told me I could get a good
price for the place, and then could
draw widows pension. So the
place has been sold, and I shall
have to live elsewhere" This was a
new viewpoint, as I saw it.
I was well acquainted with an
old gentleman who was a captain
in the war of 1872. He served under
General Floyd, and was always in
danger Of Indian guerrilla warfare
during his strenuous military serv-
ice. When congress passed the law
giving pensions to all these Indian
fighters, an agent hunted UP this
cid man and told him he could draw
a pension the remainder Of his life.
He said, mo, I shall not claim it.
The law was passed to help the
needy-a good law for those who
are unfortunate. But I was not
wounded-and I have a home and
enough to live on with good econo-
my, and 1 do not think I would
be justified in claiming a regular
support from a generous country"
This was q viewpoint that has
never failed to impress me, as be-
fore stated.
When the Confederate widow pen
sion law went into effect, the gov
ernor at that time told me he was
greatly surprised to see the first ap-
plicant, who was a very rich wom-
an, and who drove up in a fine car
riage-there were no auto cars-to
sign for the pension. The law was
intended to help the needy woman,
not the rich or Opulent.

Confederate Widows Pensions

So many correspondents write me
concerning laws / know little con-
corning that I always hesitate to
print an opinion, unless I know it
personally to be fact. In regard
to widows pensions the law has
been so often amended in late years
that 1 can state nothing definitely,
but those who have written to me
can find out all that is necessary
by visiting the county courthouse,
and interviewing the ordinary, who
has these matters in charge.
The real Confederate widows are
obliged to be aged women at this
writing. The Civil war closed in
April, 1865-fifty-seven years ago.
A real widow must have been some
where about fourteen or fifteen
years old to that date, to come
within the real intent of the widows
pension law, as placed on the statute
| books. Some Confederate soldiers
| were in the army who went in 1861
at sixteen. If they married at
twenty, they are obliged to be over
seventy, and the wife's age should
| be according to reasonable proper
lions.
I will be eighty-seven next June,
and I was only twenty-five when
Georgia seeded. Men who were
married and left widows from 1851
to 1865, are nearly all dead, and the
immense majority Of real widows,
still surviving, are obliged to be
very aged persons. In this connec-
ton, will mention circumstance
that impressed me very much at the
time, and still impresses me. Trav-
cling on a railroad train in Georgia,
1 had a seatmate of a lady in good
circumstances, if I had the right to
suppose so from her dress and equip
ments. She told me she was NOV
| ing lower down in the state to make
her home with her two sons. She
didn't know how it was going to
work out, but she had always lived
on her own farm, and raised and
educated her children, mostly since
| she had been a widow. / had some
acquaintance with the section where
