BU UHfteG Press -
NEW YORK, June 3.-Operations
against the heavy short interest built
upon the recent decline gained addi-
tional momentum today on the stock
market when call money dropped off
to 81 per cent.
Proof that the easy credit condi-
lions prevailing prior to the June
strain had been restored, encouraged
resumption Of bullish activities in
groups where such concessions were
favored by good earnings or an over
extended bear attack.
Rails were stimulated by q burst
of strength in Nickel Plate, Pere
Marquette and G & o., which was
interpreted to foreshadow renewal of
the Van Sweringen overtures with
the I. c. c., relative to the consoli-
dation of these lines.
Carrier stocks also received help
from the weekly car loading figures,
which not only demonstrated that
there had been no slackening of the
movement of commodities from pro-
duction into consumption, but
showed that the volume was con-
tinuing to expand.

Calves Are Weak

The calf market was weak at the
start of the session. At the close
of the Wednesday trading period the
market showed weakness and the
demand in the morning period today
was not sufficient to rally the veal
ers from their slump. Best grades
and the bulk of the sales were made
at the one price of $14. Some few
mixed lots went as low as $3.50.
Receipts were estimated at 1,400
calves.
The sheep and lamb market con-
tinued steady with previous quota
tions. The run was estimated at 300
ovines. Spring lambs were $l3Q
1850; clipped lambs. $12@15.50;
clipped sheep. $5@7, and bucks $4@6.

boost was caused by lighter receipts

STATE TAX BASIS

Maryland's taxable basis for 1925
was S2,366,0S1, 1888, an increase OF
S177,O66,776 over that of 1924, it
has been announced by the State
Tax Commission. The 1924 taxable
basis of the State represents an in
crease of $567,391,349 over the
figure for the preceding year, the
records show.
The $2,366,OS1,333 figure repre-
sents property in Maryland which is
subject to the full State tax rate
which at present is 81 1885 cents
on each 500 of real and personal
property and business and share
corporations, distilled spirits and the
personal property of corporation
having no capital stock.
This latter class consists largely
of improvement, social, literary and
educational associations and other
similar corporations. Bank ano
trust company shares are assessed al
the 81 rate for local purposes and
at 81 1926 cents for State purposes
Securities are assessed at 80 cents
for county and municipal purposes
and Is cents on each 500 for State
purposes, while savings deposits
are taxed at Ga cents for State

NOT so COSTLY AFTER

more than 100000 cattle, in
$4,000 herds, were tuberculin-test-
ed in the United States in the last
~ months. The total number OF
reactors was slightly under 3 per
cent. In other words, tuberculosis
was found in the proportion of one
third of an animal in every herd
tested. 1t is self-evident that it is
more economical to sacrifice onethird
of an animal per herd now than to
allow the disease to spread until SO
per cent or more of the animals
per herd become tuberculous, as is
the case in some European countries
If by taking one-third of an anima
now from every herd in this coun-
try tuberculosis will be eradicated
the expense will not bankrupt tn
livestock industry, nor will it be
too much for the State and national
governments to BEAR" said DR.. John
r. Mohler, chief of the Bureau OF
Animal Industry, in an address tf
the Seventh Annual States Tuber-
culosis Conference, at Burlington
VT, June 22 to 23.

THE GREAT CowPEA

The cowpea not only Increases the
productiyeness OF the soil, but also
improves its general physical condi
ton. This crop has the advantage
of making good growth on soils
that will not produce profitable
yields of other legumes or cereals
1t is an excellent green-maure crop
for vineyards and orchards.
Except on the poorer soils it is
more profitable to utilize the cowpea
as hay or pasture and then pillow
under the stubble. than to pillow under
the entire crop. About IS per cent
of the fertilizing and soil improving
value of the cowpea is contained in
the hay and about Is per cent in
the roots and stubble. Feeding ex'
periments indicate that much of the
fertilizing value of feeds is recover
ed nthe maure. 1t is therefore
possible to obtain the feeding value
of the cowpea as hay or pasture
and, in returning the maure to the
soil. to save a large part of the
fertilizing value.

GREAT BRITAIN LIQUOR
SMUGGLING


The hearty cooperation received
| by General Andrews from the
British Government in formulating
Joint policies intended to reduce the
volume of liquor Struggled into the
United States calls for sincere graft
tude on the part of the American
people. Liquor Struggled into Amer
lea has been almost entirely British
liquor. This fact has been as dis
turbing to the people of Great
Britain as to the people of the
United States, and at present salts
factory discussions are testimony to
their neighborly concern.
The volume of liquor struggled
into the United States was never
nearly so great as many people
have belived. Since all of these
shipments originate in Great Britain
and are cleared for ports in such
countries as Canada, the West
Indies, Mexico and Central America,
it is obvious that all smuggled
liquors are included in the volume
of exports to those countries. Mr..
George B. Wilson, an authority of
London, gives the total of British
exports to the United States, Canada,
the West Indies, Mexico, Central
America, China, Japan, Korea, the
Philippines, even including Ladra-
dor, Belgium and Germany as
2,900,509 gallons in 1925, less than
two per cent of the spirit con-
sumption of the United States in
1917, before Prohibition. Many will
llso be surprised to learn that the
exports to countries in 1913 ex-
,eeded this amount by more than
100000 gallons. Allowing for the
normal consumption in the importing
countries, particularly Canada, the
quantity shipped for smuggling pur-
poses could not have exceeded one
and half million proof gallons, for
which the Scottish whiskey trade
received about ten million dollars.
The Coast Guard measures during
the past year have been very effec-
tive, as is indicted by the fact that
he British shipments to the areas
under discussion were ,2,664,S29
gallons in 1920 and grew to 4,247,-
1875 gallons in 1924 when the
smugglers were particularly active
but sharply declined to less than
.hree million gallons as result of
Coast Guard measures taken during
he past eighteen months. Harper's
Wine and Spirit Gazette of Great
Britain, in recent issue, speaks of
the collapse" of the trade within the
scheduled area, which term is the
euphemism which the spirit trade
uses to describe the nefarious
smuggling trade to the United
States.

APPLY THIS TONIC TO LOCAL
TAXATION

When a corporation balances It's
books at the end of the fiscal year,
and shows a balance on the right
side of the ledger, there is general
rejoicing among shareholders. me
United States Government, the larg-
est corporation of ALL has just finish
ed one of its greatest years with
surplus of 1917, 100000. And this
with lowered taxes :?
Political wiseacres guffaWed ana
party demagogues scoffed, when the
Mellon philosophy OF lower taxes
and increased revenue first was set
forth as the wisest policy for the
nation to pursue, says the Los
Angeles Times. Alarming notices
of inevitable deficits, ii not approx
mate bankruptcy, were broadcast by
the pork-barrel minority.
The cataclysm not only has failed
to materialize, but an extremely rat
surplus has appeared instead. Fur
thermore an immense saving In IN
terest charges will be effected, by
application of these additional FUNDS
to retirement of the public debt.
Going on the promise that alleyla7
ton of the federal tax burden would
heighten public confidence, and slim
ulate trade through easier money
the Secretary of the Treasury has
amply demonstrated the practical
application of psychology to bic
business. Income taxes for the asst
year vastly exceeded those of the
previous twelve months, as did
customs receipts. Throughout the
land, business, both large and small
responded to the helpful attitude
manifested by those in power, and
proceeded to expand; benefiting both
itself, and, as consequence, the
national Golfers.

WHEN THEY ARE UNDER
WEIGHT

From State Dept. OF Health.
A well balanced diet with an
abundance of milk, fruit, and green
vegetables; meals at regular hours:
plenty of sleep at night and mar
during the day, are recommended by
| DR.. j. H. M. Knox, Jr., Chief of the
State Bureau of Child Hygiene, as
safeguards for all young children
and especially for the prospective
| first-graders who will enter school
in the fall and who have been found
to be underweight at the child health
conferences that have been held
throughout the State under the
auspices of the State Department of
Health
! Commenting upon the fact that
one out of every five children ex-
amined during the early weeks of
the summer was underweight, DR..
Knox said Two things should be
remembered in planning the daily
routine of every child. First, the
necessity of the balanced diet J;
second, the Importance of plenty OF
sleep.
1T is not possible to give hard and
| fast rules" he continued, because
each child is law unto itself and
needs individual attention Ac-
cordingly, all that we do at the
Bureau conferences is to suggest
certain things that are good for the
average child, and we ask each
mother who attends the conferences
to take her child to her doctor for
specific advice. A report is also
sent from the Bureau to the family
doctor, of every examination.
| lone does not have to hunt far
for some of the causes that are
responsible for the under par con,
dition of some of the prospective
frst-graders. These are: too much
candy and other sweets and too little
sleep. With apologies to the per
son who invented the famous phrase
about an apple a day, we can say
with equal certainly-'A nap a day
to keep sickness away for all young
children. We talk a great deal
about the high strung, nervous child
A nap or rest in quiet airy room
0 ron porch, in middle of the day
will do great deal to counteract the
tendency to tantrums and will also
give the child chance to store up
reserve strength.
Sometimes the underweight child
is benefited by midmorning or
mid-afternoon lunch, not lunch of
candy and cookies, all day suckers
and things of that sort but by a
simple nourishing lunch--a glass of
milk with slice of bread and
butter; or possibly a dish OF jun
'1et or baked apple with two or
three graham crackers, if it does
not interfere with the appetite. for
he three regular meals.
Certain things are bad for al
children and should always be
avoided. Among them are: Coffee
or tea, fresh baked bread, corn, cab
bage, cucumbers, pickles, unripe
fruit, cake candy, or pie"
