DENVER, Jan. 7.-P-All classes
of livestock have maintained their
high condition of month ago despite
light snow covering most of the ranges
of Colorado and low temperatures
during part of December, according to
a report issued here today by the
United States division, of crop and
livestock estimates. Few losses have
been reported
Winter ranges are in good condition
and stock is still grazing in many To-
calities, while feed is generally re-
ported as abundant and in excess of
requirements except in a few locali-
ties. Ranges, the report reveals, were
at "a per cent on January l, one point
higher than a month ago. year ago
they were SO per cent.
Cattle are regarded as in nearly nor
NAL condition in most localities and
average 81, the same as a month ago
and compared to 90 a year ago.
Range sheep still hold a high condi-
tion and stand at 81 per cent, COM
pared with 9S last month and SO a year
ago.
The report indicates a marked in
crease in the number of sheep in the
breeding pens of the state, but shows
that the number of sheep on feed for
market is only about so per cent of a
year ago. Prices of sheep are generally
good, though not quite as high as last
year.

alton was helped by the partial re-

GRAIN MARKET

CHICAGO, Jan. 7.-(R-Stimulus for
an advance in wheat came today from
predictions by a noted speculator that
the end Of the season world stocks
will prove below normal. Wheat closed
unsettled at yesterdays finish to 2B
cents higher, corn ss cent decline to
u cent advance, oats unchanged to
Il cent better, and provisions un
changed to Is cents up.
Accompanying forecast Of only
sub-normal supplies of wheat at the
seasons end were statements by the
big spectators, who today attracted
widespread attention that European
demand may be of much larger volume
than was anticipated and that the early
movement from Argentine and Aus
tralia will be less than looked for.
Unexpected upturns at Liverpool and
Buenos Aires counted likewise as bull
ish factors, and so, too, did export
buying that included No. 2 red wheat
to be shipped all-rail from Chicago
to the seaboard. Falling off in the vol
ume of Argentine wheat offerings to
Europe was noted, and there were re-
ports, of heavy rains in Argentina
likely to hinder the crop movement.
Notice was also taken of official esti-
mates that importing countries have
produced 15O, 100000 bushels less wheat
and exporting countries 185,OOO,OOO|
bushels less than last season. This
distribution was regarded as pointing
to enlarged International trade, both
for wheat and flour and as being al
strengthening Factor of the world
market situation.
Corn reacted from an early upturn.
The corn borer continued to receiveI
attention, but in some quarters was
ridiculed as a present market influ-i
ence.
Provisions were firmer, chiefly ow-
ing to higher quotations on hogs.

PROBING EFFECTS
OF HEATER" PLAN
Officials to Determine Injury
to Trees on Streets I'M
proved by System.

A personal inspection of the trees
on streets improved within the past
year by the "heater method" will be
made by District officials Tuesday to
determine the extent of injury caused
by the intense heat and gases from
the heaters. The inspection party will
include Col. William B. Ladue, the
Districts new Engineer Commissioner;
Capt. H. c. Whitehurst, assistant
engineer commissioner; G.. &. Hunt,
engineer of highways, and Clifford L.
Lanham, superintendent of trees and
parking.
A preliminary inspection of the
trees on streets where the heater
operated last Fall was made last week
by Capt. WhitehurSt and he reported
that no apparent damage had been
done. Complaints have come to the
District Building, however, that foil
age on the lower limbs of some of the
trees lining the streets on which the
heater has been used this Spring had
withered. AS a result the larger of
the two heaters used in the street re-
pair work which was believed to have
caused this damage was withdrawn
from service and plans are being made
to have it reconstructed,
Col. Ladue indicated that he is a
friend of Washington's shade trees
and that he proposes to protect them
as far as practicable. In line with
this policy he has issued orders to
the operators of steam shovels and
steam rollers, as we'll as the crews of
the heaters, forbidding them to park
under trees, fearful that the heat
from the boilers might injure the
foliage.

our health work. Although the tuber-
culosis clinic and the responsibility
for preventing the spread of this
disease rests in the Health Depart
ment, the Tuberculosis Hospital is UNI
der the Board of Public Welfare. The
situation is similar with regard to
other clinics ard other hospitals.
Coordination Is Favored.
So the question arises whether bet
ter coordination of health activities
could not be secured If all this work
were placed under a single depart
ment. On the other hand, problems of
child welfare, dependency, neglect, de-
linquency and crime are related so
closely to the work of the Health De-
| partment that in some cities both
| health and Welfare work are combined
| under a department of public welfare.
| Such is the case in Cleveland, Dayton,
Denver, Grand Rapids. Knoxville,
Minneapolis, Richmond, Toledo and
| Wichita. Whether such coordination
| Of functions in the District govern
ment under a highly trained profess

for more effective administration of
these closely related activities is a
problem to which the Bureau OF Eff

nation because they are not merely
questions Of administrative efficiency,
but questions involving policies of
government, which in a democratic
government are the concern of all the
people. 1t is hoped to solve some of
the more knotty ones by adjustment
and compromise.
Mr.. Brown emphasized that the
Bureau of Efficiency is not in the po-
sition of arhiters in these questions,

F FARM PRICES RISE
APPOINTS IN JUNE
Largest Advance in More
Than Two Years Credited
to Bad Weather.
By the Associated Press.


The largest advance in a single
month in more than two years was
made in the general level of farm
prices during June. The level ad-
vanced points from 1875 to 1870, and
was caused, the Department of Agri.
culture said yesterday, by an increas Sc
of 10 points in the grains index. 43
points in the fruits and vegetables
index, and points in the cotton and
cotton seed index. The increases in
farm prices are attributed largely to
adverse weather conditions this
Spring.
The Mississippi food affected cotton
prices and some of the other farm
products. Cotton mill activity, to-
gether with heavy export movement
Of hogs to market in response to high
err corn prices and increased world
production of pork were credited with
having shown their influence in the
index of meat animals.
Corn again advanced sharply break
ing all records back to 1909 for gains
of July over May. The increase
amounts to about Is per cent over
the previous month and is about %
per cent above the 1910-14 average for
the month. This rise in corn prices
is attributed to unfavorable weather
and late paintings.
Wheat prices advanced in all Sec
tions, the countYy'S average being APP
proXimately per cent above May.
Bad weather and prospects Of small
er crop were said to have been the
dominant factors in the price increase.

OLDF|ELD DENIES
REPORT ON TRADE
Democratic Chairman Takes
Issue With President-ln-
sists Prosperity Limited.
BY the Associated Press.


Representative Oldfeld of Arkansas.
chairman of the Democratic congress
sional committee, took issue yesterday
with President Coolidge over the con-
dition of trade in the United States.
"In press dispatches from the Black
Hills appearing in yesterdays news
papers," he said, "the President is
quoted as saying that trade conditions
are good all over the United States.
Such a statement is contrary to the
facts.
Il am not a calamity bowler, and /
have never denied that some industries
are prosperous. In fact, some of them
are piling up huge profits, as for
example the Steel Corporation and the
Aluminium Trust, but they have en-
ioyed special favors at the hands of
the Republican administration, partic-
ularly in the matter of tariff subsidies.
But the prosperity is not general.
1.-The textile industry has probably
never been in such sore straits, and
certainly the farmers haven't, and
with an economic loss of close to a
billion dollars as a result of the
Mississippi flood it is folly to pretend
that there is general prosperity among
all classes"

1928 Elections.
By the Associated Press.

by the AsSOCIdlEu ITcSos
RAPID CITY, S. Oak, July Fin
conformance with the Nicaraguan
peace agreement negotiated by Henry
L. Stimson, Gen. Frank r. Mccoy
was nominated today by President
Coolidge as chairman of a commission
to supervise the presidential election
in Nicaragua in 1928.
Gen. Mccoy, a close friend of Mr..
Stimson, who was the Presidents
personal envoy in the recent Mica
raguan difficulties, will visit the Cen
trail American country to make
study of conditions and to make
recommendations to the commission.
He probably will leave in August.
A soldier of long experience, Gen.
Mccoy served in the Philippines and
Moro campaigns and World War ana
more recently has been chief OF stan
of the Harbord mission to Armenia.
White House Statement.
A statement from the Summer
White House simplifying Mr.. McCoy's
appointment, said:
"In order to carry out the promise
made to the Nicaraguan government
and to the Liberal Party in Nicaragua
that the United States would supervise
the Nicaraguan presidential elections
i'm 1928 to insure that all Nicaraguans
NAV freely express their preference
at the polls, it will be necessary TO
establish a. commission to supervise
the elections. 1t has been agreed that
the chairman of, this commission
should be an American nominated by
the President of the United States and
appointed by the President OF Mica
ragua.
Gen. Mccoy has been a personal
friend of Col. Stimson for number
of years and recently visited him at
his Long Island home becoming thus
fully acquainted with all the circum-
stances and results of his mission to
Nicaragua, as special representative
of President Coolidge, and the pre-
liminary arrangements made by him
for the supervision of the elections"
Aided Leonard Wood.
In addition to his participation in
various military campaigns and wars,
Gen. Mccoy was assistant to Gen.
Leonard Wood during the American
occupation and reorganization of the
Cuban government and, the statement
said, has had a wide range of expert
ence in civil administrative and in
ternational affairs.
In 1906 he took over the admins
tration of the provisional Cuban gov
eminent with William Howard TART
and Col. Robert Bacon and also aided
Gen. Wood and Cameron Forbes in an
investigation of conditions in the Phil
ippines and elsewhere in the Orient.
American supervision of the Nicara'
guam elections in 1928 was one of the
points upon which Mr.. Stimson OBJ
tanned a dissolution of warfare be-
tween the forces supporting the con
sentative government of President
Diaz and Juan e. Sacasa, leader or
the Liberal party, which claimed the
right to rule the country.
The Stimson pact was negotiated on
the ground with leaders of the two
opposing factions and resulted in the
laying down of arms by both liberals
and conservatives to the American
Marines who had been sent there by
the Washington Government.
