JUSTICE BUFoRD ADDRESSES
GRADUATING CLASS
AT COLLEGE

TALLAHASSEE, Fla, Aug. ~.
Florida has nearly twenty five
hundred elementary schools in
which the state now furnishes text
books for children up to and in
Guiding the sixth grade, and there
are more than two hundred and
twenty high schools, with four
schools for higher education, JUS
ticem Rivers told the graduating
class at the Florida State Women's
College here in an address that
differed somewhat from the usual
trend, of such talks.
Justice Buford said that he UNI
derstood most of the class had
graduated somewhere at some
time in the past and upon that oc-
casion had very probably listened
to copious compliments and flow
cry Communications of their past
performances and had been given
fulsome advice as to the view
which they should take Of life; had
been warned of its many and
great responsibilities and had been
fully assured that they were bound
to reap the reward Of material
success in this life and a home
eternal in the heavens.
''In all probability, all of this
was delivered to you by one who
knew nothing of your past per-
formances; one who taught the
walks of life by precept and not
example and who was entirely UNI
acquainted with your aptitude for
success or failure. / decided
therefore, that there could be lit
tie profit for you in the repeti-
tion of this experience; that it.
would be well to talk to you about
the thing which is very dear to
the heart of every thinking and
right feeling American citizen 4

ADOPT PLANS FOR
DETERMINATION
OF MOSQUITOES

WASHINGTON, Aug. 12.-The
marine corps, in conjunction with
officials of the public health ser
vice, it appears, have actually
found means for discriminating
the mosquito. The experiment of
spreading paris green over the
breeding places of the pests with
the aid of an airplane, has result
ed in the humiliation of about 80
per- cent of the insects; but that
was not sufficient. The marines
desired full 100 per cent of
casualties and the campaign was
continued. It was found that by
using a mixture of so pounds of
the poison with three times the
quantity of hydrated, or air-slack-
ed lime, it is possible to dust an
area at a cost for materials of
only 10 cents an acre. The use
of lime in connection with paris
green prevents the destruction of
plant life, but all insect activities
are found to disappear almost in
stantly following the busting pro-
cess.
Thus far something over six
square miles of the marshes in the
vicinity of Quantico have been
treated and it is asserted that the
mosquito has been absolutely ex-
terminated over that area.

directed by the editor, prepared by any of
his writers, or received in any of his news
reports. That part is the advertising col
umns. In these, could the editor view the
reception of the paper, he would find that
others-the advertisers supple
menting his labors by providing for tastes
and needs outside his province.
1t really is not fancitul to say that in
these advertisers the paper has acquired a
number of new department editors. Each
one presents the subject he best under
stands-thc offerings of his own business.
Such editors" have the largest possible
motive TO make their announcements in
teresting, for their own money is at stake
in each issue. But even more than this,
their reputation as well as that of the
paper itself, is at stake.
When an advertiser resorts to misrepre-
sentation of his goods or services he re-
fleets not only upon the integrity of the
paper which contains his advertising but
shakes the confidence of the public in the
announcements of his fellow-adyertisers.
1t is for this reason that responsible pub
fishers and advertisers alike are today
found marching together at the head of
that great public movement which has for
its watchword: Truth in Advertising.

BRADSTREET'S REPORT
fBy Dispatcn A. P. WIRE,

NEW YORK, Feb. 26-Bradstreet's S
tomorrow will say:
Trade conditions are somewhat ir-
regular but some signs are healthful
ones. Wholesale trade is holding up
very well, sales being well ahead of
last year, and retail lines, with
spring goods being displayed, show
some Improvement. Industry is mov-
ing at about the same pace as last
week, with steel production larger
than new specifications, soft coal
mines less active, automobile factor
les operating close to capacity, and
some Improvement in building. The
stock market, however, has been
comparatively dull with sales smaller
than for some time past, and very
considerable declines in some stocks,
chiefly industrials. Most issues show
weak tendency, although the move
ment is considered by some observers
to be merely a technical readjuSt-
ment of the spectacular advances of
last fall, not involving any whole
sale scaling down of values. Specu-
lative selling, coupled with the de-
crease in cotton exports, sent that
commodity to the lowest point in
several months. Weekly bank clear

IL
CHICAGO, Feb. 26.-Selling out as
cribed largely to leading holders of
May contracts led to a sharp break
in wheat prices today toward the
last. The fact that Chicago is the
highest wheat market in the world
and that the shadow Of the new do
mestic crop is looming into view was
cited as among the reasons for the
selling wave. Chicago closing quo
tations on wheat were unsettled &c

Corn finished unchanged to Ac off.

Confidence in the buying side of
the wheat market appeared to have
received a decided Jolt, and about
the only buying power il evidence
came from sellers who are in a posi-
tion to collect profit. Under such
circumstances, the market dropped to

inclined to lag when May showed an
upward trend during the first part
of the day. Unexpected firmness OF
quotations at Liverpool and Buenos
Aires, however, helped the Chicago
market to average little higher for
while and so likewise did fairly
good export purchases of North
American wheat, more than 100000
bushels, chiefly Canadian. Such fac
tors though, were virtually ignored
after selling had started in earnest.
Corn and oats were easy, influenced
bv wheat weakness. On the other
hand, lessening of arrivals of corn
here gave relative strength to the
feed grains.
Higher quotations on hogs lifted

Total stock sales 2,313,7O0 shares.
(x)-Extra dividend .OS75.
.(x)-Extra dividend .125.

Professional bear traders who have
been hammering the market for the
past three weeks finally dislodged
sufficient long stock in today's ses-
sion to bring about a drastic decline
trial average dropped to new low
levels for the year, with closing
quotations disclosing q long list of
losses ranging from 1 to nearly IL
points. Trading showed a marked
expansion in volume, the days sales
of 2,313,7OO shares being the largest
of any session this year.
Like the reactionary movements
which preceded it, the days decline
was not associated with anything in
the days news, although the heavy
calling of loans to provide banks
with funds for month-end require
ments, sending the call money rats
from 5 to 54a per cent, probably
stimulated short selling. No uneasi-
ness was felt in banking circles over
the increase of $1,136,OOO in brokers'
loans reported by the federal reserve
bank in the week ended February II.
In view of the fact that new security
offerings of over $150,O00,00O that
week undoubtedly necessitated tenn
porarily heavy financing, the banks
statement was interpreted as an in
dication that loans on marginal ac-
counts must have been substantially
reduced.
Some speculative disappointment
may have resulted from the failure
of the General Electric directors to
take special dividend action, although
declaration of only the regular rate
was forecast by company officials

The weekly mercantile reviews dis
