There were enough exceptions to the
trend, however, to give the list an ir-
regular tone. the losses being most ire

speculative domestic bonds, while Tor

Since the prime list is now close to
its high level of 1929, there is consid-

Reduction by leading Paris banks

FARM BUYING PLAN
STARTED IN SOUTH
Georgia Landlord Takes Tenants
Into Partnership and
Shares Profits.

BY the Associated Press.
ATLANTA, Ga, January e.-Dixie's
tenant farmers, symbol of poverty and
landless for generations, must take the
place of the landed aristocracy before
the South again baskS in economic sun
shine, believes Col. J. L. Evans, who is
making such switch on his 5,000-acre
farm.
Evans explained his plan, which he
calls group farming, before the Georgia
association here, conference of land
owners. farm experts, capitalists and
their representatives.
What I have done is to take the
tenant farmer into partnership, start
him toward ownership of a 200-acre
farm and put him on year-around in
come basis" Evans said. What we
must do is develop a new race of
farmers.
"The tenant farmer, the man on the
soil growing the crops, has had probably
the poorest living in the Nation. He
has had no incentive to better his farm
and could not better himself because
ends never met.
Landlords supply him only with
enough Equipment and credit to produce
the cash crop and when 1t is marketed
debts take his share.
THAT system won't work any more
and I think I have way out. Five
years ago split my farm into 20 bal
anced units, with farm family on each
200 acres.
Each unit operates as an independent
farm on partnership basis with me.
The upkeep and the income is shared
equally.
None of my partners is buying his
farm yet-but only because of the gen
eral agricultural slump. The way Is
waiting and as soon as conditions i'm
prove they will start. The farms are
worth, all told, $4,000 each and could
more"

NEW YORK COTTON.

NEW YORK. January P).-Cotton
opened steady today at an advance of
s to 13 points. Net gains Of IS to 20
points developed during the early
trading on covering or rebuying by re-
cent sellers who appeared to be in
fuenced by relatively steady Liverpool
cables and possibly by reports that the
100000 Cooperative Cotton Asso-
citation would be ready for business on
Monday. March sold up to 1880 and
July to ITO, but met some realizing
and Southern selling at these figures.
and the market was a few points of
from the best at the end of the first
half hour. Private cables and Liver
pool had been influenced by local buy
ing and covering, with the advance
checked by the failure Of the Bank of
England to reduce its discount rate.
Reports from Manchester indicated an
improving home trade, but a smaller
turnover in the Shanghai auctions and
inactivity in the market for cotton
yarn.

company's common stock sells SEX
rights as result Of the current offer
ing Of rights, First National Old Colony
Corporation of New York suggests sew
eral methods Of procedure to be fol-.
lowed by bondholders.
Holders Of the AIS Of 1889 who are
In q position to own common stock and
to invest additional funds required to
take up the stock available under the
conversion privilege are advised to pro-
tect their interest by converting SUN.
GENTLY before May % so that stock re-
ceived In conversion will be issued on
or prior to that date and will be en-
titled to participate In the rights
offered
Investors in . position to hold COM
mon stock but who have not the neces-
sary additional funds available for eff
fecting conversion under the more IA.
vorable Of the existing plans should sell
their bonds and buy, simultaneously, rs
much Of the companys' stock as Is
possible.
Investors restricted by law from hold
ing common stock, even temporarily,
can protect their interests only by SELL
ing their bonds two days or more be-
fore May 23, which is the day the stock
sells "ex-riehts," and repurchasing them
on or after May 23. It must be real
lied, however, that this course necessi-
tates the assumption of the risks In
volved in the possibility of an upward
movement In the market price Of the
bonds during the two or three days
which would elapse between sale and
repurchaSe. and the possibility of a ma.
jority Of the issue being converted,
which may render repurchase dificult.
Those investors who are more inter-
ested in possibilities Of appreciation
than In income, or who do not desire to
hold common stock permanently, may
sell their holdings Of stock and rights
after May %, and, provided the ISSUE
OF AVS Is not entirely converted, repur-
chase the bonds.

CURB STOCKS MOVE.
IN NARROW RANGE
Market Confined to Few Is
SueS-voIume of Tradinu
Is Smaller.
BY JOHN A. CRONE.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, May Curb stocks
pursued an undecided course today,
with declines and advances Just about
offsetting each other, Volume, which
was fairly heavy at the opening, fell on
after the first hour.
At the start there was o moderate
amount of buying under which . few
favorites were pushed up to new high
prices for the year. American Super
power was the leader, coming out In q
i4,000-share block at 3sx, up nearly a
point. The price later improved to 80
and then slumped, cancelling most of
the gain. Electric Bond and Share
opened unchanged and had q heavy
tendency in later dealings.
Activity was confined to few select
ed stocks. United Light & Power "a"
was pushed up nearly points. Ameri-
can Gas & Electric was also decidedly
strong. American Light 81 Traction
new, on the contrary, was heavily sold
and slipped points. The rest Of the
group was quiet with minor fluctuations.
Low priced industrials stocks were
dull. Fabrics finishing touched a new
high. The pool in Crocker-W Wheeler re-
sumed operations and ran the price up
q point, while at the same time Ley &
Co. was under pressure and dropped to
new low price for 1890, and Automatic
Voting Machine lost over q point, re-
covering partially later.
