Mrs. Emma Boring, who resides
with her niece, Mrs. Gordon Brooks
7o1 Elmofe street, suffered painful
injuries Sunday morning while sit
ting on the porch of her home, read
ing the Sunday school lesson for the
day. In getting up fro her chair,
she fell suddenly to the floor, sus-
tanning what is believed to be frac-
tured hip bone. DR.. w. S. Prather,
who was summoned, stated that he
felt confident that the injury is only
the result Of torn ligaments and sin
eWs, although the full extent of the
fall cannot yet be determined. Quiet
ing drugs were administered to re-
lieve the intense suffering, and Mrs.
Boring is resting comfortably. She
will be 83 years old in March, and
last year celebrated the occasion Of
her birthday with the gathering of
many friends and relatives about her.

Markets, Meyer Tells
Conference

WASHINGTON, Jan. 24.-The ma
tional agricultural conference turn
ed to Europe today for the study of
factors causing the general Ameri-
can farm. depression and for a pos
sible means Of relief.
G. f. Warren, Of Ithaca, N. Y, just
back from trip of investigation in
Europe, emphasized the need of ac-
curate information for American
farmers as to European production
and demand.
Eugene Myers, Jr., managing di-
rector of the War Finance corpora
ton, detailed the work of that gov
ernmental agency. The collapse of
the cotton market, he said, did more
than anything else to bring on the
break in other markets, as cotton, he
declared, was the ''key" product. He
advocated sufficient warehouse facili-
ties and financial means to enable
producers to market their products
in an orderly manner.

Standard on of California Dividend

<seestion--May aslS your opinion as to
the extra dividend possibilities OF the
common stock Of the standard Oil Com.
psny Of California | purchased Some ot
this stock recently. The yield Ia low at
present prices, however. feel that the
money n oil is made in the sale Of gaso-
line. and considering the increase in the
number of cars In use. this company
earnings should show favoraely Gasoline
has not been reduced ID price in proper
uon TO other commodities h II.
Answer-If you purchased your
Standard Oil of California stock only
recently it is bit early to begin in
quiring about the extra dividend pos
sibiIities. The record of the Standard
Oil companies has been one of big
dividends and the record of the sue
cessful holders of Standard Oil stocks
has been one of patience. We appre-
ciate that gasoline prices have held
up better than most commodities and
that the number of motor cars has
been increasing steadily, but we have
no idea when the California company
will pay an extra dividend

Storage Battery Suitable

Question: have about $500 which /
wish to Invest "speculativeIy." and am
considering Electric Storage Battery
{new). Would you think any of the rails.
al this time, better buy. or anything &
else? What about B. r. t? From your
experience l should be glad to have you
tell me just what you think, How do you
regard American-La France Fire Engine !?
M. p. L.
Answer-By "speculatively" we pre-
sumo you mean you feel you can afford
TO assume greater risks in the hope
of increased income, both from a
higher yield and from an appreciation
in price of the stock you may pur-
chase. We also assume that you feel
you cnn keep in touch with the affairs
of the company whose stock you pur
chase, earning the additional compen-
sation in this way. Under these cir
cumstances, Electric Storage Battery
would be suitable for your purpose, al
though it cannot be regarded as an in
yestment except for business man.
B. K T. stock would not be suitable
and in general the low priced rails
offer too many speculative possibilities
except for an experienced trader
AmericanLa France Fire Engine stocks
are hardly suitable
