IMPERIAL ICE CREAM co.
HAS YEAR OF EXPANSION
Declares Dividends from Earn
ings of Very Active Year

The Imperial Ice Cream Company
at recent directors meeting declared
a 2 percent dividend upon preferred
stock, payable December Is, to stock
holders of record December 10, 1880
The declaring of this dividend from
earnings follows an active year OF
construction and program of expan-
sion throughout its territories. The
careful selecting and purchasing OF
profitable milk and ice cream compan-
les during the past years has shown
its effect upon the growth of the bust
ness. Wholesale and retail milk
business have been established in
Clarksburg, Fairmont, Logan and
Williamson, West Virginia. During
the year a new plant has been COM
pleted at Harrisonburg, Virginia
which is looked upon as the most
model dairy establishment in the
Shenandoah Valley. Capacity of the
Fairmont and Clarksburg plants has
been doubled. Butter business has
been added to all of the Imperial
plants, and it is estimated that the
product of over 1000 cows is being
purchased daily from dairy farmers
The Imperial organization now
operates plants throughout the state
of West Virginia, and also has plants
in Ohio, Virginia, Maryland, Kentucky
and Pennsylvania. The products dealt
in are ice cream, milk, cream, butter
milk, butter, cottage cheese, and eggs
The wholesale jobbing of candy has
been extended to all plants.
In view of conditions in general the
Imperial company occupies a rather
enviable position. Economics have
been effected and expenses reduced
through wise management, and with
the added food lines to its original
product, ice cream, but few families in
the territory in which the company
operates are not it's customers.

BOYS OF '6I ID
 GATHER IN OHIO
Grants Homestead Scene Ol
 Pilgrimage

Cincinnati. Ohio G2,-The Yankee boys" of '61, CT the remnant that Is left of them, will make their last salute to General Grant here Aug ust o9.
 It will be their third reunion at Cincinnati. The first was in '69, the second in '98.
 On the last day of what will in- evitably be one of the last of the annual enCampments of the Grand Army of the Republic the veterans, who are scheduled to arrive here August A, will board river steam CTS for a short trip to Point Pleas ant, Ohio, where they will be greet ed at the old Grant homestead by Lieut.. Col L. s. Grant III. grand son of the general
 There the encampment will end with d solemn tribute to their for mer leader, around what will un- doubtedly be the last camp fire for many of them.
 Three, four maybe five more en- campments may still be held, the veterans estimated, not more.
 Only bare handful of these sil- ver-haired Yankees remain, but these insisted upon the encamp- ment being held at Cincinnati this year so that they might once more camp near the home site of their leader who was born near here.
 The penalty of years. the veter- ans indicate, will not dim the patri- otic spirit of the blue-clad warriors as they pass down the streets in what G, A. R. leaders expect will be the final parade and review.
 Nicholas Longworth, speaker of the national house Of representa- lives and congressman from Cincin- natl. is honorary chairman of the national encampment He will well come the veterans and Edwin J. Foster, commander-in chief of the G. A. R., will respond.

 Electric Bond and Share showed a reversal of trend several times. moving upward at the start and then sagging about 1-2 point below yesterdays final price, later recover ing. Brazilian Traction and Light Duke Power. and Hydro Electric sales showed strength in thin trad ing. American Gas and Electric sagged
 After advancing nearly two points yesterday, Goldman Sachs suffered from profit taking at the opening, but showed good recupera- tive power, and manifested a firm trend later in the session. Prices Of United Founders. and Penrod were we'll maintained.
 Houston Oil was an exception to the narrow groove in which pe- troleum stocks moved generally, selling off about points before finding support and continued weak Cities Service hardly moved.
 Mead Johnson, Technicolor, Great Atlantic and Pacific, were vulner- able spots found by the bears, and losses of a point or more resulted. American Cyanamid B, and Noranda Mines were active and sold slightly under the previous finals. A. o. Smith gyrated in more than the us- ual amount of activity, with selling dominating its trend.

STUDYING MICE
 IN CANCER FIGHT
Woman Spends Life in Watch
 ing Rodents

Chicago. Aug. 2S tP) - Dr. Maude Slye, University of Chicago scientist, has devoted 20 years of her life to cataloguing the family trees of 50.- GOO mice. It is her contribution to the medical worlds fight on cancer.
 Dr. Slye has applied Gregory Men del's law of heredity in her study of cancer in mice, which science has found closely resembles the disease in the human race.
 Her experiments led her to de- clare that there apparently are two factors necessary to produce cancer, an inherited susceptibility to the di- sease, and irritation of the necessary intensity applied to the eancer-sus- ceptible tissues.
 During most of the days A hours, this small. vital. gray curly haired woman can be found in a former residence that has been converted into a cancer laboratory from funds derived from the 0. S. A. Sprague memorial institute. Here amid label ed cages of squealing, pattering mice, she carries on her experiments. Be- cause of her great value to research, Dr. Slye has been relieved from &C., tive class duty in the university. She lives next door to the mouse city"
 pr. Slye first presented the results of her experiments in heredity - the most detailed ever made to the American Society for Cancer Re search in 1911. It was a startling document, Since then she has won many scientific honors.
 With less than $50 she came to the University of Chicago at 17, de- termined to be a scientist Later she went to Brown University for her first degree, but returned to Chi cago for her graduate work.
 The study of predisposition 10 cancer in the human race is limited because of inadequate and inaccur- ate family histories, she said.

Chicago, Aug. 2S Lp) - Wheat and corn prices went downgrade today after some show Of firmness at the start.
 Many wheat traders here were ap- parently disposed to postpone new buying until after the peak of the Canadian wheat movement had pass ed. Iowa reports that corn promised only half a crop furnished some basis for rallying power in the corn market
 Opening at 1-Sc off 10 1-5c up. wheat values later underwent a gen. eral setback. Corn started at 1-4c de- cline to 1-4c advance and subse- quently underwent a sharp drop, but then scored gains.
