order to handle the heavy cables.
So it was decided to lower one OF
the company's cable-laying trucks
down to the tunnel, through work
ing shaft 100 feet deep. The truck
was a five-ton machine and the shaft
was impeded by pipes, stairways and

while suspended by it's front axle from

ferent methods OF fattening hogs for
the market One hundred twent-two 81
bills, divided into four unequal lots,
were displayed in glass cases by the
animal husbandry department OF the
College OF Agriculture to show the rel
alive value OF different methods OF

mcnts conducted on the agricultural

every farmer who posed through the
grand stand building where the college
exhibits were housed stopped to ex-
, anime this striking display and study
the wide range in profits obtained
from the different methods.
Forty-eight bills were displayed in
the first case which pointed out that
noSging down corn and feeding tank
age in a self feeder had proved to be
the most profitable method OF produc-
ing pork. The S4S represented the
profits obtained from one acre by

next care displayed 35 bills to show
that hogging down corn and coybeans
grown in the same row had not proved
as profitable as the corn and tankage
combination. The next case displayed
an even smaller number OF dollars,
only 25 being exhibited in this one to
show the profits obtained from an acre
when corn alone was hogged down as
method OF producing pork. Soybeans
hogged down and supplemented with
corn hand fed in amounts equal to two
and one-half per cent. of the total live
weight of the animals presented

NEW YORK. March 23.-There
was a wide opening in the Northern
Pacific and Great Northern pre-
ferred on the stock exchange today
due to the reduction Of the dividend
rate on the former, announcement
of which was made after the close
OF yesterdays market. A flood Of
selling orders had reached the mar

by q committee which ammo. need the

price $500 shares were sold. This
was a decline Of 8 points from yes

shares at TN, drop OF IA from

Chairman Howard Elliott Of the
Hill roads declared in a statement
that the Northern Pacific had suf-
fered materially in recent months
because of the slump In mining.

west. In the first month OF this
year the company had a deficit Of

was no better. In June and again
in September, 1921. the dividend
was paid by dipping into surplus.

The high rate for call money had
the natural effect Of driving funds
to New York from outside centers,
as a result Of which the rate for
call funds was q full point lower at

session. Offsetting the easier
money conditions was the general
uneasiness occasioned by develop
ments at Washington, the soldier
bill. the tariff discussions and the
drawing to q head Of the vote on
the four-power treaty. A more

remained about the same for the
two months. but there was a note
worthy increase in business build
ings, which totaled $39, 100000 In
February, compared with $23, 696, 900
in January.
Transportation statistics, so far
availa BILE, show a marked decrease
in idle freight cars and a slight gain
in the number of cars loaded, com.
pared to January.
All figures available show an i'm
provement in unemployment condi-
tons, with a marked increase in
weekly earnings, indicating that
mills are running more hours per
week.
Stock Market Movement Upward.
Bank clearings and debts to in
dividual accounts were less than in
January, but these movements in
New York City were larger than in
the same month last year. This lat
ter change reflects the greater
activity in the stock market. Sales
of stocks on the New York Exchange
totaled 16,1S5 900 shares in February.
compared to 15,394,000 in January
and 1O,147, 900 year ago.
Average prices Of stocks. both in
dustrial and railroad, also increased;
bond prices remained nearly station
airy, with a smaller volume Of sales
than in January but much greater
than year ago.

Medical Science building and residing
at 1888 Eighteenth street northwest,
for an accounting In regard to moneys
alleged to have been received by him

ing eight children, of whom the de-
PENDANT is one.

erty thus purchased be taken by the
defendant son, who was to hold It in
trust for his brothers and sisters dur
