Mergenthnler's Earnings.

Despite the fact that earnings OF
the Mergenthaler Linotype Corpora
tion for the fiscal year 1924, ended
September 90 last, do not compare
favorably with the preceding IL
months, which are recorded as the
best in the history of the company,
they were but 5s cents a share less
than the average for the last five
years.
In the fiscal year 1923 earnings
the 12S,000 shares outstanding. In
1924 they amounted to s2,336,755, or
S18.25 a share, while for the last five
years they have averaged s1SS3 a
share.
Increased compe tition confronted
Mergenthaler last year, both in the
United States and abroad. Expira-
tion of early and fundamental
patents induced strong competition,
and the company is continually
making improvements to their
product to adapt them for wider re-
quirements. Also, business was
slower in various branches of the
printing trade during at least a part
of the year under discussion. The
company is forced to extend long
credit facilities, to accept old
machines in part payment for new,
and to carry a large inventory of
goods at all distributing stations to
meet trade demands. Thus 1t is
seen that large amount of non
distributable capital is necessary to
expand as we'll as to carry on its
normal business.

TOWN OF FRANKLIN
LIKELY TO REBUILD

With every store, business house
and public place in ashes, the people
of Franklin, w. Va, 40 miles west of
Harrisonburg. are hard pressed for an
existence since the fire OF last Thurs
day night, which wiped out the bust
ness section of the county seat of
Pendleton county.
Several of the nine families made
homeless are living in tents pitched on
the Courthouse lawn. With both hotels
and the two restaurants wiped out, all
whose residences escaped the flames
are holding "open house" for relief of
the stricken families and visitors to
the town.
Banking is being conducted in the
living room of large residence, as
both the Frankling Bank and Farmers
Bank of Pendleton were destroyed.
The vaults have not been. opened, but
their contents are believed to be safe.
The farmers Bank lost its old home
and its new three-story building, which
never had been occupied.
Temporary quarters also have been
found for the postoffice and telephone
switchboard.
The fire loss is estimated at $500, 600.

INTERESTING MEETING OF FRUIT
GROWERS.

Mr.. F. A. Motz of the HORTICULTURE
Extension staff spent Wednesday with
comfy agent Moore in visiting some
of the orchards of the county. He says
that the prospects for good crop Of
fruit are very good and that every
grower should pay close attention to
the spraying and care of his orchard.
Wednesday night Mr.. Motz addressed
a meeting of the fruit growers at Stras-
burg. In his talk he emphasized the
fact that we must pay strict attention
to the growing of the fruit because of
the keen complexion of the North
West.
To prove this statement he gave
stastics that few years ago all the
southern markets were supplied with
Eastern Darreled apples. Last year
the same markets were supplied with
ninety per cent boxed apples from the
northwest and only ten per cent
eastern barreled apples.
After this talk the meeting was
thrown open for questions and some
very interesting discussions we're en-
tered into and some helpful infor-
nation brought out.
