BOSTON WOOL MARKET
Aug. 25-


BOSTON. Aug. 25.-Despite the fact that
the local wool market again rules very
quiet after a recent squirt Of activity 1t Is
remarkable how steady prices are holding
The Texas basis for twelve months wool
is reported a little lower quotable at
around S12O. against 81 %. a price that
has been quoted for nearly a month Some
three-eighth blood woods are reported to
have been bought at 90c 20 csc
Reports from Melbourne Australia indi-
cate that the shearers' strike is DELAYING the
movement Of the new clip and that a fair
volume Of business Is doing. The first sale
at Adelaide is scheduled to take place on
Sept. 2. In Texas shearing is expected to
begin in September. The demand for mo-
hairs in Boston has caused some price re-
visions upward, it is reported.

ly steady. Receipts. $4,000. big kill
ers taking about 400 from other trad
ing points. There was a stale supply
Of more than 1900 in the market.
Choice grades Of cattle were held
fully steady. Receipts Of $500 were
depleted to 1000 after the killers had
taken their direct shipments and the
days run was light for the fairly
active demand.
Sheep and lamb prices were strong.
Fresh receipts were 5000. Of which
the killers took about ESQ head direct
from outside markets. Lambs showed
the most strength.

NEW YORK, Aug. 25.-The Wall
Street Journal today says:
With prices in the pivotal indus
tries like the steel trade showing a
steady upward trend the conclusions
is steadily being driven home to Wall
Street that the economic situation is
definitely entering into a period OF
secondary imitation.
This swing Of the business pendu-
lum was forecast by the persistent
appreciation of security values over
the last year.
Indications that the curtailment OF
production resulting from the labor
troubles this summer has materially
FASTENED the outbreak Of the intlata-
tionary cycle resulted in greater up
ward movement in industrial stocks
Z In today's session.
Steel common was the logical leader
Of the advance because companies en-
gagged in the production OF basic ma
terials VII derive the greatest ad-
vantage from a period Of relative in
hation. They can Offset rising oper-
ating cost by increasing prices while
their inventories improves proportion
ately.
1t is true that the best response
to steel commons advance to the
highest levels seen for two years was
made by public utilities like Columbia
Gas and Consolidated Gas. which can
hardly benefit from increased operat-
ing expenses.
Irregularity marked the early trad
ing on the New York Stock Exchange
today rejecting the mixed character
of the news developments. The Fed
eral Reserve ratios for local banks and
the whole system showed slight de
grasses. But this was offset Ey Sec
retary Hoover's statement that
5000. 600 tons of bituminous coal
would be mined this week, equal 10
three fourths Of the normal supply,
and that production next week should
reach 100000 tons.
Steel commons squirt to 1854 the
highest price in more than two years
stimulated the whole industrial list.
New highs for the year were attained
bv Consolidated Gas at 1901. Column
bia. Gas at 1929. Famous Players at
l92s, Tobacco Products 4 at S5&-
American Telephone rallied sharply
to I21E. up 81 from Thursday low.
While Wall Street hurriedly con-
strued the new SIS, 200, 900 stock offer
ing as a bearish development, IT was
evident shareholders formed a differ
snt opinion after considering the an
uouncement overnight.
Cuban American Sugar climbed to
25% up about a point from Thurs
DAYS low. Sugar stocks have been
generally reactionary in the last week
on account OF the easier tone Of the
sugar market.

COTTONSEED OIL

BY CntbeG FfndnC90C
NEW YORK Aug. 25.--Cottonseed oil
trade was large today. Prices sold off 5
to points under local and commission
house selling with the easy tone in cotton
and the z u to 10 drop in lard, but cotton
oil rallied to from the lows when lard
recovered early losses. Southern houses
wetre moderate buyers, while rehners
brokers sold in a small way. Cash trade
was again reported quiet, while cotton crop
advices were increasingly unsatisfactory.
The Watkins Bureau was reported to have
placed the condition at 61.9, or somewhat
higher than the recent reports.
The aggressive locals are again taking
the selling side, believing that cotton has
discounted a bullish report, and that with
the slightest change in the weather i'm
proved cotton advices from the South will
follow.
The lack of any important cash trade Is
the one big drawback to the market. Crude
oil is being held above local reiners' ideas
and as a result there Is little doing. Eng
fish cotton oil was pence lower ut 40s

ing of the familiar, practical and eco
nomical square or box type, as 1t Is
often called. frame exterior set on a
firm concrete foundation with high
cellar for heating plant and storage
room. A farmhouse without plenty
of room for large laundry, vegetable
store room and modern heating plant,
is not worth while and certainly not
practical.
Across the entire front extends o
wide, open porch, an ideal recreation
place for the family In the warm
weather and cool evenings. In the
summer it can be screened in to keep
out pests and dirt.
The front door opens into small
vestibule in which there is clothes
closet for outdoor clothes, umbrel-
las, etc. The reception hall opens
into the large living room. Is by 16
feet 6 inches, arranged in the man
ner in which modern buildings are,
with fireplace and side wall bookcases.
Windows in front and side provide
plenty Of light. 1t Is also important
to note in these floor plans that all
electrical fixtures and outlets are indi-
Gated.
From the living room, one enters the
dining room through a door opening
rather wide and plain. In dining room
provision Is made for central light
ing fixture over the table, and small
er wall fixtures around the room. This
room gets light from a triple side win
dow. Crossing over, we find the door
to the kitchen, small, compact room
of modern design and arrangement.

Off the kitchen are pantry and wash
room, the latter necessary room In
the farm house plan, place where
the men coming in from the fields can
wash up before stepping into the
house proper. In this way much OF
the dirt that used to come into the
farm kitchen is left out. Off the din
ing room to the rear is a bedroom for
those who hive to wash early. There
is also q .avatory in connection with
the Mushroom.
This arrangement leaves the upper
floor entirely to bedrooms. of which
there are four in this plan, with a
rear screened-in sleeping porch and

days work is over. His first consid-
Grafton was barn. And after he had
built structure that was not to be

built hoghouse or sheep barn. All
the while he was living In makeshift
shelter which he called home.
But the light was coming coming to
show the way in the darkness. The

home, the absolute economy of the
idea, and Its influence on the future
of the boys and girls who were grow
ing up. AS they began to desert the
farms, to leave their parents to 60 to
the lights Of the city, the farmer be-
gan to think. and as he thought. he
began to see the CLEAN that was to
enlighten him. He realized that to
keep his boys on the farm, to get the
maximum Joy out of life, he would
have to build a regular home as well
as substantial barn.
And with the home came many Of
the conveniences that are now avail
able in the city. With the home came
running water, bathrooms, and cleo

the farmer down the road to ideal

A novel and ingenious explanation
of the cause of singers cough was
recently given by warm-hearted
Irishman.

how she'd had an offer, but she wasn't
sure whether it was a. good one or
not. And she told him how highly she
priced his opinion, and he was man
Of such splendid judgment, and she
felt so alone now with no strong mans
shoulder to lean upon, and she would
be so much obliged If he only would
tell her whether he considered that
offer good one or not.
Father hitched and ahemmed and
moved nearer the door all the time she
was talking, and he didn't seem to
hear her when she pushed a chair
toward him and asked him to please
sit down and tell her what to do; that
she was so alone In the world since
poor dear Mr.. Darling had gone. (She
always calls him poor dear Mr.. Oar,
ling now, but Susie says she didn't

what it was.)
Well, as / said, Father hitched and
fldgeted, and said he didn't know, he
was sure; that she'd better take wiser
counsel than his, and that he was very
sorry, but she really must excuse him.
And he got through the door while he
was talking just as fast as he could
himself, so that she couldn't get in a
single word to keep him. Then he
was gone.
Mrs. Darling stayed on the piazza
two whole hours longer, but Father
never came out at all again.

said this over the backyard fence to

you go anywhere with young man,

going to do very much toward making
