games this morning, will be
called upon to face the toughest
kind of opposition during the
next week against Brooklyn and
New York, two Of the fastest
travelling clubs in the circuit.
After playing five-game series
with the Robins, starting this
afternoon, the champions will
invade the Polo Grounds next
week to tackle the second-place
Giants.
The Robins. proud owners of a
five-game winning streak, have
copied eight of their last 10
starts. They moved into the
first division for the first time
this year by making the Pirates
walk the plank twice yesterday,
6 to 4 and to 3.
Shaute Wins
Joe Shaute, who leads the
Brooklyn pitching staff in games
won. hung up his seventh triumph
of the campaign in the opener.
Fred Heimach pitched effectively
enough in the nightcap to make
the wild-eyed Brooklyn fans Won
der why he had not been al
lowed to start a game since
April 81.
The Cardinals subdued the
PhiIlies twice by the same score.
4 to 2. George Watkins pCled
three home runs in the second
game.
It was quite day for the home
run hitters, is circuit clouts being
the days total, while the National
League club owners. in solemn
conclave here, declared that the
dead" ball was cutting down
home runs and batting averages.
To further mock the moguls,
the Cubs and Giants scored "a
runs in the second game of their
! double-header, Chicago grabbing
the verdict, IA to 10. by scoring
six runs in the ninth. The ball
was deader than door nail in
the first game, however, in which
Car, Hubbell, of the Giants, won
2-to-O duel from Bob Smith,
Hubbell yielded only two hits and
Smith five.

FOUR RAIL BUYS
COMMENDED

That many railroad stocks have
declined in price in proportion
to the decline in earnings since
1929, and some in even greater
proportion is revealed in the cur
rent investment bulletin of the
Alexander Hamilton Institute. In
the case of Great Northern and
Northern Pacific the percentage
decrease in price has about par
alleled the decline in earnings.
In the cases Of some Of the
other carriers the drop in price
has been out of prop tion to the
recession in earnings.
AtchiSon, Chesapeake and Ohio,
Norfolk and Western and Penn
sylvania show greater proportion
q ;e price declines than the drop
in per share earnings. It appears
that neither the high earnings
and prices Of 1929 nor the low
earnings and prices Of 1881 are
representative of values Of these
roads says the institute, advising
investors to include them in their

Business in the United States,

"It has taken us two years

Taxation has become major

PRICES ST|FFEN
SLIGHTLY FOR
COTTON
Market Feature Is January
Sale and March Purchase
BY Japanese Interest

NEW YORK, Dec. 18 QNSO.
The cotton market tended to fluc-
tuate narrowly in fairly active
trading today, with slight stiff
fening of prices along toward mid.
day from the initial lows, enabling
the general list of futures contracts
to show changes ranging from OFF
l point to up 3 points.
The feature of the trading was
the sale Of 5000 bales Of March
by a broker who usually acts for
Japanese interests.
Others Liquidating
A moderate amount of price
fixing orders formed the chief
support to the market for a time,
with commission firms buying in
the distant months, liquidation Of
January was in evidence by out
side interests, while there was
scattered selling of distant months
by Liverpool and local traders.
OF interest to the trade was
the announcement of the cotton
co-operatives that they had taken
in 1895, ,459 bales from members
for the season to December IL.
against 1,839.626 to the same
date last year, a decrease which
was ascribed to the holding Of
farmers.
The weather reports indicated
general rains through the belt
with snow across the Mississippi,
and the forecast indicated no i'm
provement.
IntO-Sight More Slow
Into-sight movement continues
relatively slow. The daily sales,
running close to 10000 bales, COM
pared with 1900 a year ago, but
with much heavier amounts
earlier this season.
At midday December was off l

Most Women Find
White Becoming

The white evening dress Is especially
smart this Spring. and II you are plan
ming to have three new evening dresses
for Spring and Summer, one should
certainly be of this color.
You may insist that white shows soil
too quickly, but this obvious diSadvan-
taRe is also one Of the things that
make white always one Of the smart
est of hues.
There Is no tone that Is 50 generally
becoming to all types as white No tone
sets OF to better advantage the fair
ness Of the blonde; but 1t Is also becom-
ing to most brunettes. White organdie
or white satin lends grace to the very
slender figure, while white lace or fiat
crepe has very definite claims to the
consideration Of the woman of gener-
Gus proportions who would md light
pastel tones out Of the question.
Your new evening dress may be of
white chiffon-all chiffon or combined,
as 1t often is this Spring. with white
lace. If you are slerder, there Is white
organdie, that was chosen even for
formal evening wear at Southern re-
sorts last Winter. or, newer still, white
eyelet-embroidered batiste, which is
sometimes used alone and sometimes
combined with organdie.

Your Baby and Mine
By MYRTLE MEYER ELDRED.

After the first day or two Of infre-
Guent feelings the new baby is intro
duced to the schedule Of regular feed
ings which win be followed throughout
his infancy. Just as Adults become
habited to meals at regular intervals,
so the baby's disposition and digestion
profit when his meals are timed by the
clock.
For the tiny, undeYeloped baby the
feeding interval may be the three-hour
one. He will be fed at 8. 8, IL, 3, 6
and once, perhaps even twice, at night,
usually at 10 and o'clock.
For the child over six pounds In
weight the four-hour schedule Is ap-
proved by pediatrists and universally
used in hospitals. The meals are given
at 6, 10, 2. 6 and 10 and at night,
though later or earlier hours for be-
ginning the day have no disadvantages,
providing they 1T the baby's household
and are adhered to regularly.
The advantages to the baby and to
his mother are obvious. The breast
supply is improved when regular hours
of nursing are followed. The mothers
day is less circumscribed when she can

happier and more satisfactory nurse.
Being bound to the treadmill Of three
hour nursing rapidly becomes monet
onouS when babys novelty has worn
of. No mother can stay in the house
all day and retain her good spirits and
disposition It Is too much to expect.
There is, too, more than a SUBJ
connection between regularity ana
discipline. When instituted in infancy
and carried on until a habit is formed,
regularity tends to eliminate those
causes Of friction which are certain TO
arise when the child's eating and sleep
ing are at the within Of the child or
the convenience of the parent The
child may be crying for food more
frequently than at fourth. ur intervals,
but that is no excuse for feeding him
oftener. Instead, his diet should be
increased until he can be satisfied for
o four-hour period. His mother may
