Danger Signals in Markets
Needed During Past Week
Runaway Buying Movement Auerted.
Railroad Stock Pus7ling-Immigra-
ton Problem GrO,Us More Vital.

1t comes to the crop moving 1t is
virtually sure that the traffic state
ments are showing shat the gross
profits resulting from this huge
eaten up as they were the month
Rail Stocks Pushing.
1t is generally recognized that the
in April and in the months to come,
because weather conditions will have
been more favorable. With all this
stocks do not move, are indeed COM
paratiVely neglected in the market.
Why this should be SO is one of the
most interesting questions at the
present time.
Many i'm Wall street will say that
it is because the day for the rails"
has not yet dawned, that in due time
in hand and that then the public. SO
apathetic now, will rush In to buy.
The other explanation. sometimes
heard, Is not so satisfying to holders
of the railway shares. 1t Is that In
yestment interests, looking far ahead.
that is to the assembling of the new
Congress, with its strong anti-rail-
road bloc, prefer to see fewer rail
stocks and more of something else
in their strong boxes even at the
present time.
Immigration and the Farmers.
1t is quite unpopular at the moment
to take stand against the i'm
migration restriction laws. When the
chairman of the United States Steel
Corporation at the annual stock
holders meeting uttered some criti-
cisns, he was roundly abused from
many quarters.
Politicians looking TO 1924 do not care
how much the labor shortage forces up
wages and how much the rise in wages
forces UP prices. And this may have
unpleasant consequences later on, but
50 long as these are delayed another
eighteen months it is good politics TO
talk on the side of upholding the pres
ent state of things. One contingency,
however, will be awaited with consdd-
cradle interest. and that is the effect of
the general raising of Industrial wages
upon the supply of farm labor when it
comes to the harvest season.
When the farmers have to compete
against manufacturers who have just
put up their pay rolls 10 to Is per cent.
one ventures to say that much will be
said about the plight of the rural dis
tricts seeing their labor costs go up and
the advantage of the rise in agricultural
prices in large counterbalanced.
The reaction of an outcry from this
quarter upon the political mind will be
most interesting to observe.

CHICAGO. April 2S.-Although this
weeks butter market was steadier
than in the preceding seven days. the
net results were declines. Throughout
the week buyers were cautious. Some
demanded and received protection
against future declines to the extent
of the entire time the butter remained
in buyers hands. That policy became
less popular, however. as the week
Wore on.
Foreign butter again influenced the
market. On April "a. 1850 casks of
Danish butter. including 500 cask s
in bond for Canada, arrived in New
York. The shipment acted as a club
over the market, increasing the senti-
ment for lower prices.
Reports from all markets agreed
that the average quality Of receipts
had shown some deterioration.
The quotation on 80 score stock at
the four leading butter markets at
yesterdays close was: Chicago, 40,
one point loss; New York. AZ, one
half point loss; Boston. AZ. one point
loss. and Philadelphia, 411a, one point

DAIRY
POINTS
CALVES NEED SPECIAL CARE
Rush Of Other Work Likely to causs
Neglect When Good Attention
Always Pays.

Calves born In the spring ara likely
not to have as good an opportunity
for proper development as those born
earlier in the winter, many farmers
have found. The rush Of outside work
dstracts from their care and interest
in them at time when such attention
always pays best.
All young animals worth raising
should be well fed from the start. II
possible, they should be fed whole milk
three times q day until at least one
week old. As general rule, II
pounds of milk day for each 100
pounds Of live weight should be fed
This rule may be followed approx
mately for all ages and for all kinds
Of liquid food. I;
When quite young the calf should
have access or be encouraged to eat
the following dry grain mixture after
its feeding of milk or Cruel food-3O
pounds cornmeal or hominy, 80 pounds
wheat bran. 80 pounds ground oats
The Glenwood post., 1923-07-26

and 10 pounds of oil meal. This Is
a mixture recommended by the state
college at Ithaca, n. Y.
Choice second-cutting clover or al
falfa hay should be provided after the
calf Is two or three weeks Of age.
Where skim milk Is not available
and whole milk too expensive, a sub
stitute can be used after the calves
are three weeks of age. A cruel
made from equal parts Of soluble
blood -four, hominy feed, red dog flour,
and linseed oil meal should give fair
results. The correct proportions are
one pound Of mixture to eight pounds
of water. The ingredients should be
mixed first with small amount of
cold water and then hot water should
be added In the proper amount at not
over 145 degrees f. When cool, the
mixture Is in the same proportion as
skim milk. Hay and the dry grain
mixture should be provided.
The calf born In spring ordinarily
should not go to pasture before early
all, but should be kept in u clean, dry
stall away from the dies and heat,
md fed regularly and abundantly.

CHAPTER XIII
Calamity Coal OIL.

The days of Lorene Percy's engage
ment had been stormy ones in her
hsne, but through neighborly persua-
sion and intercession. Mrs. Percy had
raised no permanent obstacle. Lo-
rene's friends felt certain that her re-
lease from home rule was assured.
1t was the evening before the mar

fields had long since retired to their

Penfield was sewing in the kitchen.
It was late and she was very tired.
Twice she had caught herself nap

breathe in the fresh air and get thor

full; the sky was intensely blue e1-

laid across II the back yard was filed
with soft radiance that transformed
the ugly clothes-poles into slender
shafts of light.
"What a beautiful world 1t Isl" she
said to herself. "And we all go so
fast that we don't have time to look
at 1t the way it is. I wonder why we

Resolutely she went back to her
chair and fitted sections of the coat
together.
Footsteps sounded on the board
walk. There was quick knock. The
door opened.
"Oh, I knew something would hap

Mrs. Penfield sprang to her feet.
The voice was familiar, but she
would hardly have recognized, with
out this evidence, the figure that con
fronted her.
"Lorene!" she gasped.
Look at me !" cried the girl Her
tragic tone emphasized her ludicrous
appearance. Her face and hands
were covered with fine SCOT, In 1ecks,
In streaks; her fair hair was curiously
darkened, as If thin black veil had
been drawn over 1t; her light blue
house dress looked greasy and soiled

element In her failures; but when 1t

deep fire; her face was irradiated !;

notch Of jauntiness.

wasn't it?'
"Oh, dead easy!" confirmed Lettie,
with careless gesture that repudi-
ated weary weeks Of abortive en-
deavor. There amt nothing to this

"Lettie," sighed Mrs. Penfeld, "what

OF these more cheerful phases of
two immediate problems-food supply
and Lettie's training-Mrs. Penfield
was thinking as she finished her
sprinkling and starchlng and changed
her dress. It was the first Of Decem-
