NEW YORK, March 30.-In quiet
trading United States Government
loans dipped in the bond market to-
day as corporate and foreign obliga-
tions moved unevenly in moderate
range.
Around midday United States Treas
urv issues showed losses of 1872 to
1882 or more with the 2l2s, the GAS
of 1859 and the 234s of 1851 under a
little pressure.
Government bond dealers said they
attached little significance to the de-
cline in view of the light turnover.
Some described it as merely tech
nical reaction occasioned by limited
selling attracted by Mondays rally.
In the corporate sector gains OF

OIL CODE EXPERT
GIVES TESTIMONY
Former MIRA. Official Gives
Version of 1895 Gaso-
line Prices.

BACKGROUND
Trial OF Is major OIL companies
on Sherman antitrust ldD charges
has been under Ddy for past sep
erdl Weeks at Madison, Wis. The
Government charges companies,
through a program of buying up
small refners gasoline, raised
prices from March to May, 1885,
and then held the price constant
until the end OF the year.
~ the Associated Press.
MADISON, Wis, Dec. THE Fed
eral Court jury trying is major Oil
companies on Sherman antitrust
law charges had before it today a
former N. r. A. petroleum code. Off
ciafs version of why the tank-car
price of gasoline remained stationary
during the latter part of 1885.
John Stafford of Eldorado, Ark,
national co-ordinator of refining
under the code, testified yesterday
that State limitations on crude oil
production and a firm retail price
kept the tank-car price at an even
level.
Mr.. Stafford attributed a ll2-cent
increase in the tank-car price from
March to May to the Connally Act
which banned bootleg Oil from inter-
state commerce; to curtailment of
gasoline production under the code
and an unusually Increased demand.
When the Connally Act became ef-
fective, March l, 1885, Mr.. Stafford
said the gasoline price appeared to
be an irresistible thing because the
pressure that had held gasoline down
was removed" and reached proper
parity with the price of crude oil,
which he testified remained at ST a
barrel
Limitation of gasoline manufactures
under the code, he said, resulted in
situation by the end of May, 1885,
In which major companies had been
caught short approximately 100000
barrels of gasoline that they would
have had with which to meet the
demand
Mr.. Stafford testified Government
control" kept the price constant later.
On-producing States had enacted
"prod-ration" laws, he said, which
limited production and kept IAN arti-
ficial floor" below the gasoline price.
From May until the end of 1895, he
added. the retail price fluctuated not
more than y a cent a gallon and
provided a feeling" over the tank
car price.

are funds which Cancelled the mort

borrowers who were paying for their
homes on the old savings loan
plan Of accommodating a sinking fund
in the form Of share account. Since
many additional associations have
shifted their lending plan to the
direct-reduction method OF repay
ment during the past year there was
a substantially smaller amount Of
such money during the last six months
than from January to July.
Share Loans Decrease.
The league president also noted the
decreasing amounts Of share loans
being made by the association, as
compared with the two previous years.
He sees in this development the re-
Election Of better times and smaller
need for emergency funds.
The 1885 turnover in cash is looked
upon as being closest to the ex-
perience OF the associations in normal
times OF any figure reported since
1881. During the years 1882 and
1888 the turnover on savings pro-
grams, exclusive Of dividends, share
loans and borrowers holdings, was
more than sl,000,000,000 q year, as
contrasted with $550O0o,o00.

For $475 you, without aid from any
professional craftsman or handy man,
can seal the gap around the edge Of
corner bathtub; for only so cents
more you can do it with a recessed
tub. AS matter Of fact, without
digging down too deeply into the
family pocketbook you can put this
molding completely around the base
of the room for positive seal against
the penetration of water between the
tile flooring and the Dashboard.
The nice part about this molding,
besides its price, is that it can be in
stalled without any special tools,
screws, plugs, clips. 1t arrives from
the manufacturer complete with cor
ner pieces and final pieces, and a
mastic compound which CLUES them

ON SAVINGS IN Sc.
Loan Association Payments
Reported Largest in
Number of Years.

Thrifty members Of savings, build
ing and loan associations in 1885
reaped a $1,l6o,00o,0OO reward for
their foresight, the United States
Building and Loan League reported
today. The sum was paid back to
investing shareholders, representing
their largest receipts from savings
programs in good number OF years.
Harold T. Donaldson, Lansing,
Mich, president of the league, esti-
mates that $l00,O00,00O to $780,
100000 was reinvested in the associa-
tions when the payment was made to
the shareholder, many members flnd-
ing no immediate need for SPEND
ing the sums accruing from a long
term savings program and, therefore,
preferring to leave these dollars where
they will draw income as investment
shares. He notes that more of this
took place during the last quarter OF
the year than has been characteristic,
and attributes the change to liberal
wage and salary raises in major in
dustries which eliminated much Of
the need for moderate salaried people
to use their savings backlog.
ALLEGATION of Disbursement.
ALLEGATION of the 81 10000 900 dis
bursement to shareholders Of the as
sociatlons was as follows: Completed
savings programs and normal cash
turnover on savings programs, $780,

TOW would you like to cut down
- your bill for hot water while
you added an extra improve
ment to your house at the
same time? Sounds like pretty
canny idea, doesn't it? Well, then,
consider a combination hot-water
heater and incinerator.
We have found two-in-one device
which burns up your refuse and heats
your water at saving of at least SO
per cent in operating costs by the
simple expedient of utilizing two kinds
OF heat. one of which has formerly
been regarded as waste. The hot
exhaust lue gases which we are in
the habit of allowing to escape through
a chimney are turned to the purpose
of incarceration, while the heat from
the burning refuse helps keep the
water supply hot.
The combination uses gas as a
fuel, but because of this double use
OF heat 1t permits you to keep your
water at the right temperature while
disposing of garbage at the same time.
Its workings are not as mysterious
as they seem at first glance The hot
gas from the burner, after passing
through copper coils, is discharged
through vent to the under side of
the lnclnerator CRATE. From this point
the gas passes through the refuse,
thoroughly drying it and then it
burns. The intense heat of the burn
Ing refuse passes upward with the
vent gases to the heating tank, which
is situated directly above the incin-
orator. Both the water tank and the
lnc1nerator are thoroughly insula ted
with air cells, rock wool and flreproof
asbestos.
The two appliances come cased as
one unit in neat gray enamel dress
with trimmings of polished bronze
and chromium. 1t is made of the
best grade gray-iron castings and
enameling steel and equipped with
the latest safety devices and controls.
The usual place for units of this
sort is the cellar, but the combina-
ton we have in mind might lust as
frequently be placed in an entry-way
OH the kitchen, or In the kitchen
itself if that room is large enough.
When we told one of our friends about
1t she wrinkled her nose and said
she wouldn't relish smelling garbage
burning in her kitchen. But the
manufacturers assure us you can't get
Whiff OF the burning refuse because
the hot vent gases dehydrate it and
it burns to an ash.
So besides saving fuel you can save
space which in this era of compact
ness is no small item indeed. Besides
materially reducing the gas bill for
water heating, this unit saves the
expense of refuse collection, which in
some outlying sections costs the in
dividual home owner as much as s25
year

looking souls who have already in

home, you may have been troubled
with condensation on your windows
during really cold weather Don't be
discouraged about air conditioning in
general just because of this. Go out
and get a special control Of humidity
which is particularly sensitive to your
window panes.
There is device which acts as an
auxiliary to the regular humidistat in
patroling the window areas of your
house. The humidistat, regulating
how much moisture there should be,
usually operates from an inside wall
and the amount Of moisture put into
your air is geared by the temperature
at that wall Every one knows, how
ever, if they have sat beside a win
dow on c. ID Winters day that there
is difference in temperature as you
travel windowward And since warm
air can contain more moisture than
cold air, it is only natural for the
humidity to get too high near the
colder side of the room. AS result
you get condensation.
The device, known as a window
stat, signals the main humidistat the
minute the humidity in its own vicin-
ity gets up to 90 per cent. This may
happen even when the humidity in
the rest of the house is only so per
cent But when the windowstat
speaks, the main humidistat heeds
and turns off the humidifying spray.
The Windowstat is a great boon to
those families who have experienced
stained window sills and walls under
windows where a humidistat in nice
warm part of the house ran the show.
In short, people who have humidity
control in their homes should have
double control-one for the general
run of things and another at the win
doW-the coldest window of the house
to act as checkmate on the main
control. The device we have found
operates on all systems of humidif1ca-
ton and is an easily added accessory
for your air-conditioning systems.
Moderate cost, too.
DON'T tolerate bathtub-whether
old or neW-that shrinks away
from the wall like a tinid child
