WEEK SEES BONDS
GENERALLY HIGHER
Good Second Grade Issues in
Best Demand in Today's
Market.
BY GEORGE T.. HUGHES.

special DlspdlcH 10 Inc Star.
NEW YORK, January 17.--Prices
closed the week in the bond market
generally higher except for Libertys
and the savings bank rails. Good
second-grade issues yielding around
6 per cent were in demand. An ex-
ample is Missouri Pacific 6s, which
sold above par for the first time, and
such bonds as Tennessee Electric
Power 6s and North American Edison
6s and 6l3s. The class of bonds now
coming into favor are those which
are not quite good enough for the
very conservative, and too slow NOV
ing for the speculatively minded. a..
U. s. Bonds Irregular.
United States Government bonds
and the high grade rails were irreg-
ular today, but on the week the
Libertys show small declines in re-
sponse to repeated predictions of
higher money. For the same reason
there has been an unusually good de-
mand this week for short-term secu-
ties. Pennsylvania Railroad col
lateral rs OF 1880, selling on 8 per
cent basis. is a type of this bond.
Another railroad bond OF fairly short
term which has had a better market
is Colorado and Southern Aus. This
kind of investment buying has like
wise shown itself in United Kingdom
51zs of 1897, which, at 1863, have
this week equaled their record high
for all time. In this case the matur-
ity return is under per cent, but
higher than that afforded by first
mortgage domestic rails.
Foreign Group Steady.
In general, the foreign group has
done better this week. The French
issues have dragged, especially the
SIS, which fell below 103 for the first
time on this movement, but most of
the list was higher. The feature
among European bonds has been the
City of Copenhagen 5 rs, with an ad-
vance of more than two points, based
probably on the fact that drawings
by the sinking fund for redemption
at par to the amount of $750,o00 an
nually will begin On July l next.
Among the speculative rails today
leader was Chicago Great Western As,
which at 611a were selling at IA
points above the low of the week.
The strongest members OF this
group on the week, however, have
been the Seaboard Air Line issues, all
OF which, except the adjustments, have
made substantial gains.
In fractions B. NJ. p. 6s have been
consistently strong at a new high
record above 50, and some revival
of interest has come into Chicago
Railways SIS, which are up over a
point on the week.
New offerings this week have been
comparatively small. The largest was
$50, 100000 Az per cent three-year
notes of the Edison Electric Co. of
Boston on a 4.75 per cent basis.

from our herd and in this way great
ly cuts the cost of producing a can of
cream.
The smaller the cost per pound of
butterfat, the greater the profit. If
we as individuals are going to pro-
duce our cans of cream at the small
est cost possible, we want to raise
and feed lots of Alfalfa hay.
If we as a community are going to
produce butterfat cheaper than our
neighboring communities, we want to
raise and feed lots of Alfalfa hay.
If we can make every farm an AL
falfa farm, the value of our land will
be greatly increased. Herds will av-

There will be more money made in
dairying, and the general wealth OF
the whole community will be far
greater than it is today.
Costs and Profits
The matter of cost of producing
butterfat, as in the case of any other
crop, is of great Importance. Cost
affects profits as much as prices, gen.
orally speaking. Supply and de-
mand make the price, but the cost
of production is lowered or raised,
within limits, by the producer him.

have in every can of cream we sell.

HOG SURVEY
According to Hoard's Dairyman,
Fl. Atkinson, Wisconsin, on Decemb-
er LIST, 1924, the United States De-
partment of Agriculture reported the
results of it's pig survey. The con-
illusions drawn led to the statement
chat the hog production in 1925
will probably be as small as any year
in the last ten, and that there will
be an acute shortage Of hog products
in 1926. The survey shows a de-
crease of 1872 per cent in the numb
er of sows narrowed in the fall of
1924 as compared with the number
narrowed in the fall of 1928.
The number Of sows bred to far
row in the spring Of 1925 is "a. 8
per cent as compared with those actu-
ally narrowed in the spring of 1924.
1t is unsafe, of course for any one
to anticipate exactly what the hog
market will be, but it can be said that
these figures indicate that the price
of hogs in the year 1925, and un-
doubtedly in 1926, will be relatively
higher than they were in 1924.
This pig survey was taken by the
United States Department of Agri-
culture that the farmers of this coun-
