THE POOR pRUNE


One Of our recent song-hits COM
plains that no matter how young. o.
how old, prurie may be, he is
always full of wrinkles. And you
would be full OF wrinkles too if
you were the butt of as many Jokes
as is the lowly prune. The boarding
house-prune jokes are even more nu-
M rous than the mother -in-law
jokes, and with as little reason. Boil,
are anxious to do us good.
Tons of prunes are produced an.
nually in the state of Washington.
and this humble. fruit should have
place in the diet of every normal
person in this ard other states. They
Should hold place of honor on the
Breakfast menu.
Not only are prunes rich in min
erals. particularly in PHOSPHORUS,
Iotash and iron, but they have a
high carbohydrate content and cal
oric value three times greater than
that of California grape fruit; and
considerably higher than is found in
lima beans, string. beans, peas, etc.
Here the prune, also, is a reliable
source Of vitan1in B, so necessary
for growth, and so little affected by
the cooking process.
Persons of sedentary habits would
find prures beneficial. because of
its roughage and. fibrous material,
which stimulates the intestinal tract,
and prevents constipation. School
children should learn to speak OF
the prunc with respect instead of
with derision.
Dried rrunes should be carefully
washed, and cooked slowly and thor
oughly until the syrup is as thick
as molasses.
We hear much these days about
a well-talanced ration, and we must
remember that no ration is properly
balanced unless it contains plenty
OF fruit-preferably Washington
fruit. Washington. prunes, Washing
ton apples, berries, peaches, cherries,
ct al-are rich in health-giving prod
ucts. Let's eat them more freely.

 STRONGER SUPPORT
Rally Staged After Irregular
 0peainG- Utilities Rise

New York. June eS R-support today was rallied to the curb mar ket in the face of call money re- newals at 10 per cent and the tendency in the first half of stocks to seek lower levels. The opening was irregular. Selling was encounter ed on the upswings in the later deal- ings. giving the market generally a mixed tone. Trade reports and divi- dend announcements continued fav- orable. ~
 Cosdeen Oil was the feature of the market, skyrocketing more than { points to above 74. 4 record high price for all time. The rest of the oil group was quiet, with Gulf and Humble inclined to heaviness. Public utilities cbntinued to dom- mate the trading, but the turn over was light compared to last week. Gains and losses except in two or three issues were mostly fractional. Consolidated Gas of Baltimore an- nounced formation of a voting trus, to insure retention of controi py the present management.

STOCKS ADVANCING DESPITE HIGH RATE

New York. June 2t N-Stock prices showed | decided inclination to advance, today despite the strin- gency in call money. Early losses Of l to nearly : points were largely wiped out by early afternoon and | long list of issues sold to II points higher. New high records were es- tablished by at least | score individ. uai stocks. including American Can, General Electric. Allied Chemical, North American. -.tchison and Pennsylvania.
 Call Money 10 Per Cent Call money renewed at 10 per cent and there was q further cal!- ing of loans which threatened to send the date to |. within the next day or two. The time money mark ct was dull, with no change in rates.
 Business news continued favor- able in character. AS generally ex- pected, Anaconda Copper directors voted to continue the t7 dividend rate on the increased capitalization. Libby Owens directors authorized . { for 1 stock split up. and . doub- ling of the annual dividend. A sa- ries of excellent industrial and rail- road earnings statements also help- led to create a more cheerful specu- lative feeling.
 Stringcncy Temporary
 While some of the conservative commission houses continued to urge caution in the making of new commitm ents because of the possi. bility of another drastic money pinch" in the next few days. there was rather general feeling that the stringency was temporary. and that easier credit conditions would pre-
 vail before the middle of July. De- !spite recent unofficial intimations
 that there had been no change in
 Federal Reserve credit policy. Wall
 Street believes that . relaxation ia
 inevitable before the crop harvestin;
 season is in full swing.
 While the days buying opera.
