County Agent O. S. Fletcher came
out to Banner school, Thursday even
ing, and addressed the school on the
care of pigs. The newly organized
pig club of ten members elected
officers and worked out the initial
entries in their record books. Keen
interest was manifested throughout
the meeting which was attended by
all the scholars and some adult visi-
tors making about sixty who listened
to the talks. After the business
meeting and the talk by Mr.. Fletcher
the school was addressed by Mr..
Henry Colvin who told about his work
the past three years at the Washing
ton State college. Following Mr.. Col
vim, Mr.. r. A. Rogers gave a few
words of encouragement to the chill
dren. A local fair is planned for the
benefit of this club and the one west

under the auspices of the Potlatch
Mercantile Co.
The club elected the following
officers: President, Harold Tate;
vice-president, Russell Tate; secre-
tary-treasurer Evelyn Olson; project
leader, F. c. Sittkus.
Mr.. Fletcher called attention to the
speed with which the club was or
ganized as it was just a week from
the time the members signed until
the pigs were delivered and officers
elected. Mr.. Pitcher accounted for
this being due to the foundation for
the club being laid by Mr.. McNee,
the teacher, when he organized
similar club last year, though pigs
were not available to carry on the
project.

FINANCIAL REVIEW.

Again today the stock exchange
was the center of the days financial
picture.
Further selling in the market was
to have been expected following the
previous day. 1t was pretty general
" agreed that the Friday decline orr
ginatcd in Il speculative raid. the sur
rOurdings for which had been created
by discussion Of business conditions
and especially OF the pause after the
rapidly expanding movement of Fcbru-
AIRY and March.
Many cot the impression from this
that the crest of the wave had been
seen and tnc tendency from now on
would he downward. This was ac-
countabc for the hurried rush to sell
stocks, once prices began to fall
away.
This. Of course. was mere snap
judgment. As the week end reviews
of the mercantile agencies point out.
such reaction as has occurred during
April in production and in prices is
perfectly natural after such an
unusually actiEc first quarter. Brad
streets make the statement that an
active Spring business is in sight and
it says that retail buying is already
big and promises TO be bigger.

FOREIGN BONDS FIRM
Trading on Small Scale and Railroad
Securities Irregular.

-CNNriEht by The san Antonio Light.
New York, April 2t.-Forcign
bonds were firm in an otherwise dull
and reactionary market today. Trad
ing was on a small scale during the
two hours of business.
Naturally enough it was the specu-
lativc bonds that lost the most ground
and decline began a reflection of the
weakness in stocks. Such issues as
Scaboard Air Line 6S were in sup
ply. 1t is bonds like these that spec
ulation has centered in the last few
weeks.
The seaboard's Earnings have shown
consistent improvement on the basis
of The February statement. it is es-
timated that charges including inter
est on the adjustment bonds will be
covered this year.
Other speculative railroad bonds
moved irrcSularly.
In bonds of higher grade there were
fractional declines. There was little
change in the high grade bonds and
Liberties were quiet and steady.
Among the foreign bonds. French
S. and French Z lbs cqualled their
high Of Friday and then reacted
slightly. Czechoslovak IS sold lit
tie below the high of yesterday. Mex
lean rs advanced.
Among the days gains the feature
was an advance of > points in Punta

Sales Occur Despite Optimistic Att
tude and Confidence.
BY WILLIAM F. HEFFERNAN

New York. April 21.-The curbs
market was subjected to heavy selling
throughout the session today despite
the optimistic attitude and confidence
in the general situation expressed in
the weekend trade reviews.
Oil stocks continued under pressure,
a number of the group reaching new
lows for the movement, while offerings
of industrials were large enough to
bring about substantial losses in a
number of these.
Mammoth was feature. breaking
more than five points overnight.
With the exception of Standard Of
Indiana. which advanced slightly, the
Standard group bore its share in the
general unloading of stocks.
The selling in motors practically
ran its course before the end Of the
first hour. but most of these shares
were off appreciably from the Friday
closing.
1t took little effort TO bring about
further decline in Durant of Della
ware.
Cleveland at 33 was off l 33-i
points from the recent high.
Mining shares were decidedly irreg-
ular.
