FIRST IRRIGATION COMPANY


California owes much to John
BensIcy who conceived the plan, or.
ganized the San Joaquin & Kings
River Canal and Irrigation Com
pany, and under great odds com
pleted the first irrigation project in
the state. His plan was considered
an impossible dream, and after or
ganizing his company, March "a,
1866, he devoted his whole fortune
to the work, as financiers refused
their aid. Bensley employed 1000
men in the project, transported sup
plies over 70 miles Of mountainous
country, and leased large tracts
which he planted to grain. The out
come proved Bensley to be, not a
wild dreamer, but a practical busi
ness man possessed of great vision.

TREND IS UPWARD

Features on Side of Rise Are,

BY WILLIAM r. HEFFERNAN.
Special Dispatch to The star.

NEW YORK, July 27.--Publication
of the first half year reports Of United
States Steel and General Motors APP
parently caused speculative interest to
center more in developments on the
Stock Exchange than In the Curb
Market today. Features on the side
of advance in this market were less
numerous than In previous sessions,
but the upward movement still was on.
II there was any thought that the
recent improvement had carried prices
to exorbitant heights, it was not Pc
fected in the action of the main body
Of stocks. In the absence of new de-
velopments in the oil trade situation
there was little incentive for general
upward movement in this quarter.
Humble and Vacuum encountered
profit'taking, but declines were incon-
sequential.
Consolidated Gas Of Baltimore as
sumed leadership of the public utili-
ties, advancing into new high ground
for the year around 81. This encour
aged participation on the buying side
OF numerous low.priced utilities, which
were thought to be selling out of line.
Those representing banking inter-
ests for American Rayon products
were reluctant to tell what new devel-
opLleIltS accounted 1Or the persistent
demand at new high prices for 1927
for the shares. 1t was stated, however,
that an announcement would be made
shortly which would work out bene-
ficially for shareowners. Industrial
Rayon shares were actively taken at
rising prices and Celanez Corporation
recorded an overnight jump of 8
points.
Talk of recapitalization Of the finan.
cial structure of Royal Baking Pow.
der and Sanitary Grocery was respon-
sible for strength at top prices for
both issues. The Saturday profit-tak-
ing movement in American Arch ap.
parently had been completed and the
stock went forward briskly for a gain
of points.
In the mining division, Alaska
Yukon Trust Certificates furnished the
feature, opening on a block of $500

nothing In the outside news to account

The advance attracted profit-taking,

EVERYMAN'S
i. INVESTMENTS
Seasoning" of Bonds.
BY GEORGE T. HUGHES.

In recent months many buyers OF
new bonds have been disturbed by
seeing a sudden and sharp decline in
the market quotation for their hold
ings. Invariably it came all on one
day and without warning. Before that
time the price as given In the bond
tables printed on the financial pages
of the newspapers had been main
tanned with only fractional variations.
Naturally the first thought of an
investor unacquainted with the tech.
nical conditions surrounding the
marketing of new bonds would i'm
agine that there had been some ad-
verse development affecting the prop
erty on which his bond was a lien.
This, however, Is an error. In 90
cases out of hundred the bond is
exactly as good after the break in
market price as it had been before,
There had been no change in the
financial condition of the company.
There was precisely the same assur-
ance that the interest would be paid
regularly and that the principal would
be met at maturity as there was in
the first place.
What had happened was that the
syndicate, or a group of investment
houses originally sponsoring the IS
sue, had decided that the time had
come to withdraw, the support they
had extended while the bonds were in
process Of distribution. The readjust-
ment that followed was simply .
market reappraisal.
OF course, every investor desires to
buy at the low and sell at the high
and to that extent he is disappointed
at any such market decline as we
have been discussing. He may console
by the probability that sooner
or later the loss in market value win
be recovered providing there is no
upset in general investment conditions.

Halt in Selling in Both Old and

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, July 27.-The bond
market today showed more uniform
strength than at any time this month.
There We're small but significant ad.
vances in each group of domestic and
foreign issues, with the industrials
and local fractions following the up.
ward trend of stocks.
After renewing at 4 per cent for
rFsseveral days, call money was offered
at 3A per cent. The cessation Of
liquidation not only in the old. but in
new issues has restored certain
amount of confidence. which is re-
f1ected in quiet accumulation by in
stitutionS of prime railroad and public
utility bonds. One good feature has
been the stability of number Of the
industrial and railroad issues which
broke badly following the dissolution
of syndicates.
Erie SIS Rise Today.
This was noticeable today in the
Erie 5s. which for long while have
been selling at 92%, but rose above
80. Hudson Coal IS also moved
slightly above the original price though
the syndicate in this bond is still in
tact. Goodyear IS. Humble Oil SIS,

ception and were costly to the under

reported to have gone we'll today. A
compilation of proposed new foreign
financing just made gives the aggre-
gate in sight as $S75, 200, 900, with Ger

PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 6.-For
a man who has hit baseball ITO
miles or SO, one record more or
lessn doesn't make much differ
lenee. Nevertheless, sports writer's
paid due notice to the fact that
Tyrus Raymond Cobb had begun
his 23rd year OF major league
baseball, which is a record IN
Itself Pop Arson and Cy Young
stopped at 81 years.
Thousands Of hits. thousands OF
times at bat, thousands of runs.
mean a lot to the average fan.
but they lack vividness. So the
statistician's busy pencil has evolv-
ed new picture Of Ty Cobb's
record-all rolled into one.
Here is the picture. Imagine a
monster baseball diamond in
which the bases are 35 miles
apart. Imagine Ty Cobb at bat.
crashing out one terrific hit, 10
miles into the outfield. And then
imagine him tearing eff al miles
around the bases to home plate
There, compressed into one
large picture, Is Ty Cobb's record
in baseball. Naturally. many de-
tails are lacking. He has been IA.
bat 1000 times. Last July he
thumped out his 1000 hit Las,
April he scored his 2,100th run.
His batting average has been
over 300 for II successive sea-
sons. His extra base hits total
well over 1000. He has played
in nearly 1000 games. His rec
ords in the various departments
of the game are legion. The bases
he has stolen, il laid end to
end, would stretch Is miles!
