present dividend rate on the common is
z per cent. The stock sells within a
narrow market range, with little or no
speculative interest, and at a price to
yield between and 5 " per cent.
The capital structure is not ideal be-
cause of the heavy preponderance OF
bonds, but is a conservative measure of
the property value. In the matter of
territory served, the Illinois Central is
the most important North and South
line and its future is bound up with the
prosperity of the States covered and
with that of the railroads as a whole.
1t has the same motor competition, par
ticularly in the point of passengers car
ried, that the other railroads have. 1t
depends in a large measure on the
movement of bituminous coal, and all
these details should be taken into con-
sideration by prospective investors in
the stock.
In the Interstate Commerce Commits
sion consolidation plan the Illinois Cen
trail keeps what 1t has and receives, in
addition, the st. Louis Southwestern,
which is one Of the prosperous smaller
carriers.

Illinois Central
BY GEORGE II. HUGHES.

Although not covering its dividend
by any wide margin in recent years, the
common stock of the Illinois Central
Railroad well deserves an investment
rating. The Illinois Central is one of
the few roads that never went through
reorganization. 1t has paid dividends
on its capital stock at one rate or an
other without interruption for 70 years,
a remarkable record.
Bonds of the Illinois Central sell on
purely investment basis and are held
by financial institutions and large cap
italists. It's preferred stock sells on the
market appraisal of the value Of the

entitled to non-cumulative dividends at
the rate of 6 per cent annually and is

LOWER PRICE TREND
TN HEAVY CHEMICALS
Special dispatch to The star.


NEW YORK, March 21.-HConSum-
ing demand for heavy chemicals IN the
past month continued on scale below
the corresponding period last year, and
the effect of this was seen IN the
prevalence of a buyers market, with
concessions from the quoted prices
GRANTED on the majority of commodi-
ties. Chemical and Metallurgical Engi-
neering reports. Sulphate of ammonia,
vents were included among the items
for which lower prices prevailed.
While check on manufacturing
Operations has gone into effect in diff
lferent branches of the chemical in
sduStry, production so far this year has
been relatively high. Consuming in
fduStries in most cases have not oper-
ated as actively as they did year ago
and have not absorbed chemicals as
fast as they were produced. Hence
there has been gain in unsold stocks
sEince the first of the year.
Denatured alcohol is passing through
q quiet period and quoted prices are not
being maintained. The. weakness in
values appears to be purely matter Of
selling pressure with conditions war;
ranting a strong market should re-
vival of buying set in.
Shipments of linseed oil from crush
ing centers have fallen far below the
totals for the same period last year.
On the other hand, producers report a
steady movement of alkalis into con-
sumption, with total deliveries very
close to last years figures.
A general survey of the chemical
market reveals that the movement into
consumption is of large volume, but ii
is below the standards established last
year. With a reduced buying interest
the market has developed keener COM
petition on the part of sellers. Due,
in part to reductions in production
costs, but to a greater extent the re-
suit of a preponderance of supply over
demand, Chemical g. Metallurgical
Engineerings weighted index number
for March settled at 97.90, which COM
pares with 1882 last month and 100.5(
in March. 1929.

BOND PRICES EASE
IN QU|ETER MARKET
Most Issues Retain Recent
Gains, However,. S.
Group Strong.
BY F. H. RICHARDSON.
,cial Dispatch to The star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, March 21.-After an
extremely active and higher opening,
the bond market today eased OF both
in volume and price strength. 1t was
still a heavy trading day, however, and
prices maintained their high levels in
most cases.
AS is so often the case after a pro-
longed and steady rise such as the
bond market has had for the past two
weeks, the buying became Selective.
Certain issues were pushed forward to
parity with the rest of the list, while
others that had been most active on
Thursday were quiet at unchanged
prices.
The largest of the new Offering was
the $40 000, 900 Royal Dutch issue of
per cent debentures with warrants.
These were priced at 891a, as forecast
on Thursday. When admitted to trad
ing on the Curb Exchange they opened
at 9015, went to 90B and later were
turned over in moderate volume around
90H. Other new issues included SIS
100000 Chicago, Milwaukee and st.
Paul Railroad Az per cent mortgage
bonds, series F. They were priced at
1902 and continued to sell at frac-
tional premium in curb trading.
The feature of the day in point of
activity was the foreign department.
There were some declines here, but they
were nearly all in issues that had
reached their high prices for the year
and were affected by profit taking IN
small volume. Other issues, notably
the South American and Central Eu-
ropeans descriptions, were actively
bought at steadily rising values.
Brazil 61ss were up ~ points, Sac
Paulo IS gained points, Peru IS gained
a point and Antioquia "A" rs reached
new top with point advance. Adj
vances were made by Cologne 61as,
Greek SIS, Lautaro Nitrate SIS, Switzer-
land 512s, Vienna IS and Warsaw rs.
1t was pointed out in connection with
the continued strength of foreign dol
lar credits that the supply has been
considerably reduced.
United States Government bonds
stayed close to the peaks attained on
Thursday in a small turnover. The
prime group of railroad public utility
and industrial issues were irregular,
with declines in Atchison General Is,
| Baltimore & Ohio first As, Canadian
Pacific Is, Frisco "A" As, Northern Pa
ciflc As, and utilities power and light
| SIPS, and gains in Great Northern U.s.
Standard Oil of New York 41as, Stand
| ard Oil of New Jersey SIS, Utah Power

| phone SIS (1955).

HUGE STRAWBERRY
SH|PMENTslIKELY
Florida and Louisiana in
Keen Competition, Says
Agriculture Review.

Effects Of the early March freeze IN
Florida probably viii be seen in reduced
shipments of vegetables, particularly
string beans and tomatoes. Other
Southern trucking sections also suffered
to some extent. Advancement Of the
season with the approach OF Spring Is
emphasized by movement OF the first
three cars of Louisiana strawberries. A
large crop of berries Is expected from
Louisiana and these will now offer COM
petition to Florida shipments. Last year,
Louisiana forwarded nearly 1900 car
loads of strawberries, and the total crop
in that State had an estimated farm
value of $1,000, 900. Prices declined
slightly at Florida shipping points last
week.
= 1t will not be long before new crop
onions are moving from Southern Texas.
Growers in that territory are interested
in the market price of So per crate of
Bermuda-type onions, imported from
South America. Imported Spanish
onions declined sharply in price, and
markets for domestic stock were dull
and lower. Potatoes also declined
further, except in the Pacific Northwest.
Florida potatoes are becoming promi-
nent. Sweet potatoes showed very little
change, even though shipments In
creased slightly.
Record Price for Cabbage.
New records were made for cabbage
prices. when Texas stock reached 500
per ton at loading stations and $40 in
Cincinnati. Holland and Denmark con-
tinued to ship cabbage actively to Amer
lea, in order to benefit by the high
prices. The Texas season is beginning
TO wane. Cold storage holdings Of
apples on March 1 were about per
cent lighter than a year ago and per
cent below average for this month.
F. o. B. markets for apples were a
little weak. but prices strengthened in
eastern terminals. Tomatoes held about
steady. Celery and lettuce advanced
considerably at shipping points, and
lettuce was higher in large consuming
centers.
Caulitiower declined at California
loading stations to ST per pony crate,
as movement increased rather sharply.
The t. o. b. market for Florida string
beans was stronger at 4.50a5.25 per
bushel hamper; shipments dropped 90
IS cars and were only half as heavy as
year ago. Asparagus movement from
California reached IS cars, compared
with Is during the same week last
season. Green peas from Imperial
Valley also required IS cars. Texas
spinach forwardings decreased to $50
cars, while the f. o. b. price advanced
to 75a80 per bushel basket. Carrot
movement was heavier, with gains re-
ported in California, Texas and New
York.
Fruit Shipments Increase.
Possibly less than 5000 cars of citrus
fruit are yet to move from Florida.
Grapefruit shipments increased one
third last week to total of GAS cars.
Light movement of grapefruit was re-
ported from few other States, and IS
carloads arrived from Porto Rico
Orange shipments increased to 1T3O
cars for the 7-day period; Florida was
credited with $40 and California with
1890 Combined movement of the
principal fruits and vegetables was
increasing and required 1920 cars last
week, but was still 1,7o0 less thar a
wear ago.

at the stranger. The hair on the back of his neck, shoulders and back was doing the same thing. Something else she noticed also. She had often thought how big and soft and gentle looking were the eyes of Llghtfoot the Deer. They were just as big now, but they were no long, CT soft or gentle looking. It seemed almost as if they flashed fire. Ger tainly they were filled with anger. The eyes of the strange Deer had the same appearance. Lightfoot blew a sharp challenge. The strang- CT replied. Lighttoot took a few steps forward. The stranger leaped over the fallen tree into the open, facing Lightfoot.
 Impy looked around hastily Chat teler the Red Squirrel was looking down from a branch almost above Lightfoot and had forgotten that there was such a thing as a harvest. Happy Jack Squirrel was sitting up in crotch of tree, with his eyes round with excitement. He, too, had forgotten the harvest. It was the same way with Rusty the Fox Squr- Tel. The very air was filled with excitement.

Smart For Tea I otalers

When it is late afternoon this season and you have a coveted in- l vitation to a reception or a high tea" to meet celebrity, the formal little blouse ensemble, made of the most sumptuous materials, is cos- tune you can wear with perfect confidence of chic.
 | For the golden-haired woman a luscious brown velvet suit (lefD, trimmed with blonde fox dyed tho | shade of the gold in the gold and green lame blouse, is g marvellous costume. The coat is fitted and flaring. with an irregular hemline, all scalloped daintily. as is the bot tom Of the flaring skirt. The fur collars the coat making a soft frame for the face, fastening right under the chin. Bands of the fur circle the sleeves at elbow and from there the velvet is shirred vertically to the wrist.
 The tunic blouse is of delicate gold and green lame, ptped with both the gold and the green colors. The sleeves are very tiny. The little velvet turban is off the ear on ono side and ends in a bow on the other.
 For the sophisticated brunei or , blonde, or even haired wo- man, there is regal formality in a svelt black broadcloth suit (right}, trimmed with blue fox in the man. ner of a rich shawl collar and muf cuffs. The coat of this suit is cleverly draped to give a very soft and feminine line.
 With this handmade crepe Elizabeth blouse Is of a new pastel blue that is perhaps more green than blue. It has a surplice closing all outlined with the most exquisite ly made frill, with a saw-tooth edge. The long sleeves have saw tooth frills from the elbow to tho wrist in two diagonal lines.

Impy never will forget that morn ing when the harvest was forgot, ten. It was early. Jolly, round, red MT. Sun had only just begun his daily climb up in the blue sky. Early as it was, all of the Squirrel cousins were on hand at the beech trees. Jack Frost had been very busy the night before, and the little three-cornered brown nuts came rattling down with every Merry Little Breeze that passed along. Presently, Lightfoot the Deer appeared. Impy stopped picking up nuts to sit up and stare at Light foot for moment or two. Certain ly, Lightfoot was worth staring at, Never had he appeared more hand some. His great antlers which some people call horns, although they are Aot true horns at all-had been freshly polished by rubbing on a tree. They made wonderful crown for his handsome head. The points were sharp. Lightfoot held his head proudly as he stood test ing the winds with his wonderful nose. All the Squirrels stopped gath ering nuts just to admire him.
 Lightfoot appeared to be uneasy. He would put his head down to search for a few nuts, only to throw it up again suddenly to test Mer- ry Little Breeze that came along and to cock his big ears forward that he might better hear. Once O. twice he stamped impatiently.
 Isn't he beautiful whispered lit tie Mrs. Impy to Impy. Hes the handsomest person in the Green Forest. I wonder what makes him so uneasy this morning? I've never seen him act like this before. Hear him rattle those horns against that tree. What do you suppose makes him act so?"
 T don't know" replied 1mpy. q guess he's just feeling good. These cold mornings make a fellow feel good. I feel good myself. Look. Frisky, look"
 Little Mrs Impy. who used to be Miss Frisky. looked where Impy was looking and gave a little gasp 0: surprise. If it were not thai Lightfoot the Deer was standing all most in front of her she would have said that he was over behind a fall ell tree a short distance away. She could hardly believe her eyes. Ther- stood Deer that looked enough like Lightfoot to be his twin broth, CT. He was just as big as Lightfoo' and just as handsome. He was a little younger, perhaps, but he had the same bold appearance and h. was staring straight across a, L1ghtfoot.
 Look at the hair on Lightfoot . shoulders and along his back, whispered Inlpy.
 Mrs. Impv looked. That hair was standing right up. She looked across
