The system of playing men of In

envy and the absence Of the one year
rule evidently do not make the ar
rangement of a football schedule a
simple task. The list of home

BIZ United Press

NEW YORK, March 2S.-The

resent the actual income. which is
never made public. In 1928 the
profit and loss surplus was s422.-

with s271, s1s,6 sos the previous year
From these statements, some Wall

Of each share of Ford stock to be
worth as much as $6,000-which
would place the total stock valua-
ton at more than billion dollars.

PRAIRIE ENDS
WITH SMALL LOSS
Report of Four Deaths Is
Found Untrue.

Bn United Press
SIOUX FALLS, s. D., March U.s.
South Dakota prairie fires were at
an end today with the damage esti-
mated at slightly more than the good
which will evolve. Ranchmen said
the area burned over will produce a
more abundant stand of grass this
year because Of the burning.
Several small stands Of timber
were burned as the fires spread and
some Indian shacks and ranch
houses were consumed by the adj
vancing flames. The prairie fires
swept through territory which was
not thickly populated, and the loss
Of property was minimized.
Early reports Of deaths due to the
flames proved untrue. One man was
badly birned at Walker, s. D.
Unless strong winds arise again be-
fore rain comes there is little danger
Of a repetition of the prairie fires
this spring.

NEW YORK, March 2S.-one Of
the dullest sessions in months oc-
CURED today and for the most part
of the two hour trading the market
was laden with stocks at or around
the previous closing levels. In the
last part of the second hour there
was considerable increase in the
trading momentum when stocks
gave ground and leaders were forced
into new lows. Steel common was
in this class getting to lie, while
American Smelling and refining was
another breaking to go. Baldwin
touched a new low and American
Can went down to 1876. New York
Central also made new 1925 low
at 1141z.
This selling came late in the ses-
sion and following such earlier dull
trading was looked upon as an eff
fort to dislodge stocks In order to
facilitate covering in other parts of
the list.
Reports of business conditions
we're good. Secretary Mellon
reiterated his opinion that 1925
would prove a year of healthy bust
ness. Motor trade was reported in
good position with an active demand
for vehicles and no excess stock Of
finished cars on hand by the Gen
eral Motors Company.
