4 Two MILLION
DOLLAR RAIN

You have heard about good many
million dollar rains and SHOWS, but
1t was rain In class by itself tina,
visited this section commencing Mon.
day and kept coming with out a rush
but with good steady persistency un.
til we produce the slugs that are
telling you about 1t. ON Thursday az
ternoon. The clouds still appear to b.
heavily laden with moisture and abb
to duplicate the performance Of the
past seventy hours.
The amount Of the rainfall accord
Ing to the U. S. gage at the bank
Is "a inches.
There have been much heavier
rains than that; but this one has
not been the dashing sort, but q
reasonably steady downpour at no
time beyond the capacity of the soil
cultivated and was at all loosastisand
to absorb 1t.
It should make the good winter
wheat boom. the poor pieces will be-
come fairly good. while a good many
fields that were considered worth
less will come out sufficiently to
make It worth while to leave them.
Spring wheat which had made a
fair start will get an impetus that
will make It very promising.
As a preparation for corn and a
stimulant to pastures 1t is the finest
ever.
Another good feature is that 1t has
70 far remained warm and stock has
suffered very little, and the improve
ment in pastures will soon make up
TO the stock grower any harm that
may have resulted from the storm.
II the farmer had been having a
rain made to order, he would not
have changed this one little bit in
any place.
We have an idea that the twelve
months prior to this rain will show
about the lightest rainfall Of any
year for long time.
We should be very grateful that
the long dry spell is broken by such
a perfect rain.

BUSINESS NOTES
AND TRADE NEWS
Retailers Optimistic Regard
ing Outlook for Dress
Trade i'm Spring.

Retail buyers have been manifestinS
keen active interest in the early
showing OF dress lines for winter resort
and next spring wear. according to
David NJ Mosessohn, executive director
of the Associated Dress Industries Of
America. "Those retailers who have
been In the market and who have just
been looking around in order to get an
idea of what is being offered Mr.
Mosessohn said, ''have expressed salts
faction with the lines they have seen
and have been very optimistic in regard
to the outlook for the season ahead.
Tn most of the sections from which
they come. they say every indication
points to a good demand for all kinds OF
merchandise. From the showings that
have been made and the results in act
ual orders by retailers who cater to an
early seasons demand. manufacturers
are confident of a good steady busi-
ness"

NEW BOND ISSUES
ARE QUICKLY SOLD
Reinvestment Demand Gets
Impetus From Redemp-
ton of Victories.

AS generally expected in investment
circles the second week OF December
was marked by decided Improvement
in the bond market in all its branches.
This Improvement was largely due to
the beginning of the year end reinvest-
ment demand, which received its inn
retus from the large sums put into cir
culation through the redemption<of Vic
tory Az per cent. notes. Had more
holders of those notes availed them
selves of the opportunity Of having
their securities redeemed the banking
fra ternity would have been better
pleased.
In addition to the estimated 100000
Geo paid out by the Treasury Depart
ment on the Victory notes the Govern
ment distributed last Friday about $780,
600, 900 on account of maturing Treas
ury certificates, and approximately $780,
600, 000 in interest on Liberty bonds and
Victory notes. On the same day SUBJ
scriptions were closed on the short term
loan of s700. 100000. No report Of the
size of subscriptions to the latest Gov
ernment loan was made.
This new wealth will be swelled soon
by approximately $323. 600, 900 in interest
and dividend payments which will be
made by corporations at the end of the
year. The new investment power
created by these payments was reflected
in rapid distribution of all new issues
OF bonds offered last week. The total
was little less than $4,000 900 and
bankers say they could have sold many
more millions. The two largest issues
were s15,S66,700 Dunlop Tire and Rub
Der Corporation of America per cent
bonds and s13.0O0.o0O Philippine Gov
ernment gold AIS.
Trading in bonds in the New York
Stock Exchange was also much more ac-
tive and the volume of business trans
acted was considerably in excess Of the
previous week. On Thursday the total
sales of bonds on the Exchange were
more than $24,000.000, the highest days
sales since April 26 last. Prices of OUT
standing bonds listed on the Exchange
advanced moderately.
A feature Of the investment last week
was the increase in preferred stock Of
fcrings. 1t is understood that a large
number OF corporations are planning to
finance themselves In this manner, and
good market for investment stock is
expected. 1t Is believed that this COM
ing week will see the unloosing of sew
eral sizeabie issues Of new bonds that
bankers have been holding for a better
market.

Crude Rubber Ri.inx.

Prices of crude rubber have climbed
rapidly In tho last several weeks, due
fn large measure to the approval of
the plan to restrict the tapping Of rub
Der. thus avoiding large accumulations
which tend to deprcss values. Standard
ribbed srnoked sheets now are quoted
around TH cents. an advance Of cents

more than 100 per cent. above this years
low of 13 cents a pound. reached on
August 8. The current price is the high
est since 1920. when rubber declined
from so cents to 20 cents a pound. The
increased cost of crude rubber Is begin
ming to find reflection in higher auto
mobile tire prices.

re4tico.t. to Be Advanced.

Higher prices for silk petticoats,
bloomers. pantalettes and costume slips
arc predicted for next spring. A promi-
rent manufacturer who has just started
to make sample lines declared that his
prices will be advanced at least 10 per
cent. as a result of the greater costs OF
silk. Manufacturers are expected to
show their spring lines early next
month. Holiday buying of fall goods
has about ended. Pantalettes we're quite
actively sought by retailers for the hoii-
days. In petticoats. silk jerseys and
radiums are expected to be leading
items for next spring.

Thrown SILK Fairly Active.

Most of the activity In the current
thrown silk trade Is coming from
hosiery manufacturers. While hosiery
mills continue to buy from hand to
mouth. 1t seems that the improved re-
tail demand for hosiery has compelled
them to place larger orders Fltful
buying continues to characterize the
knitting and broad silk weaving trades.
The recent decline in raw silk has re-
suited in softer thrown silk prices.

Everyone uses milk every day in
some way.
1t COMES nearer to being the uni
versal food than anything else.
It's benefits for everyone, from In
fancy to old age, are known. Its dan
gers are less widely known, but are
always present. Unclean milk is the
cause of the deaths of hundreds of in
falts and of much Illness.
1t is hard to detect milk which har-
bors disease germs unless you know
how to go about it. Smelling, tasting,
or looking at it are Of no use at all.
You cannot tell that way.

charcoal at all times, and the best
way is to place these in a hopper,
hanging it in convenient place
where the chicks may help them
selves. If chicks are kept in con-
finement they must be furnished a
liberal supply of tender, green feed
like lawn clippings, lettuce leaves
and such other things as may be
available.
Whenever possible ,howeve
chicks should be given grass range
when they will supply their own
green feed, catch bugs, worms, etc.
Chicks that are allowed to run on
a grass range are usually strong
and thrifty and will grow much
more rapidly than those that are
kept in confinement. In addition
to other feeds, the chickens growth
may be fastened considerably bv
giving them sour milk to drink.
Chickens are very fond of milk in
any form and will eat and drink a
liberal supply of it. 1t may be fed
either sweet or sour, but the latter
is more desirable. Sour milk will
help to keep the chickens healthy,
and Is one of the best things that
can be fed TO promote rapid growth
and development. When milk is
fed the amount of meat scrap in
the mash may be reduced one-balf
or left out entirely.
