champion and one Of the headliners
at the annual sports show at Won

catching fish that are worth pass
ing on.
He never uses net. He believes
in letting the fish fight the steady
strain of the bowed rod until it is
completely licked and can be easily
lifted from the water.
His method is to bring the fish TO
the boat. then submerge the rod tip
and make large figure eight. This
last bit Of swishing around will take
any remaining fight out of the worst
scrapper. he believes. That's with
the short rod. of course. Don't try
it with your fly rod or some husky
specimen Will uncork a final rush
and smash the tip against the side

The idea is the same with the fly

FISH too near the tip. Bring him in
slowly, letting him buck the power
of the bamboo, and when the fish

WHOLESALE INDEX
MOUNTS IN WEEK
Fertilizer Association Estimates
Average at 1874, Against
77.88 Week Ago.

There was a general advance in
wholesale commodity prices in the
week ended August 8, according to
the index of the National Fertilizer
Association. This index advanced to
784 per cent of the 1926-1s28 average,
compared with 77.8 in the week pre-
ceding. A month ago the index was
IT'S and a year ago 1911. The index
last week stood at the same level as
had been reached in the week of May
25, the highest point attained during
the recovery period.
The increase in price last week was
general, with eight of the component
groups rising and slight decline oc-
curing in another group The most
important advance occurred in the
foods index, which rose to the high
est point reached in the recovery
which began in early 1888. The rise
in the foods group was due largely to
higher pork prices, although cheese,
eggs, flour and apples also were higher
during the week.
Higher prices for hogs, cattle and
wheat were largely responsible for the
rise in the grains, feed and live stock
index. OF the % commodities included
in this group, II advanced in price
last week and 7 declined. A small
rise in the textiles index was the result
of minor advances in several textile
items.

BUILDING FORCES
AHEAD IN SOUTH
Private Contracts Increase
Further Despite Lag
in Public Works.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
BALTIMORE, August 6.-Indus-
trial, engineering and private building
operations in the South registered
substantial gains during July, says the
monthly review Of the Manufacturers
Record.
Due to sharp decline in public
building and highway construction,
however, the total of contracts award
ed for all projects in the month fell
approximately $5,000,00O below the
figures for the preceding month.
The July aggregate was reported as
$40,274,000 in the 16 States covered
by the review, as compared with $45,-
SOB 900 in June.
The industrial and engineering
awards in July increased nearly So
100000 over the previous month, while
a high level was maintained in con-
struction activities financed by pri-
vate investors.
The review cited delay in starting
Federal Government projects" as the
principal reason for the decline in this
class of building. During tn first seven
months of 1885 contracts on Federal
aid projects were $39,00000 less than
for the corresponding period of 1884.
The seven-month total of industrial
awards exceeded the 1884 figures by
more than $14,O00,O00. while private
construction gained about $22, ,00O, 900
in the same time.
One Of the largest enterprises re-
ported for the Summer, concident with
a general upturn in the steel industry,
was the starting of work on a cold
rolled strip mill by the Bethlehem
Steel Co. at Sparrows Point, Md. This
was estimated to cost S5,000,000.
Similar expansion in the oil indus
try was noted, with plans under way
for new refineries at Gulf ports and
various pipe lines to transport the
output of new fields.
Street railway companies in many
of the South's smaller cities, the re-
view said. are putting millions of dol
lars into the latest type motor buses
and trackless trolleys and other eouip-
ment revolutionizing transportation.

races, was dead to-day. killed by
Governor Henry Horner's veto.
Sponsored by Mayor Edward j.
Kelly of Chicago, as a means of
bolstering the city's revenue fund
the bill would have given Chicago
the right to license and regulate an
activity, which at the same time
would have remained a misde-

In a statement Horner said: Il
am convinced that the conse-

people of Chicago"
Horner had insisted all along to

lieved that he would veto the pro-
posal in the face of Kelly's spon.
