NEW YORK, Sept. l5.-Unlted
States Government bonds advanced
today after Federal Reserve figures
had disclosed a big addition to the
tremendous pool of idle money in
banks
Some Treasury issues in late
dealings we're up nearly half point
on a further recovery from the war
drop. Top-grade corporate bonds
were inclined to follow the Gov
eminent market. Elsewhere prices
were mixed, with many rails still
feeling the demand of buyers eX-
pecting the carriers to benefit from
business improvement.
Surplus reserves of member Fed
eral Reserve banks, the basis for
expansion of bank loans and invest
ments. jumped 100000 to a re-
cord total of 5.270000,000. the
weekly condition statement of the
Reserve System showed. Accounting
mostly for this, bankers said, was
additional purchase of $230000 900
in Treasury loans by the Reserve
banks in the recent supporting op-
erations for the Government list.
Bids for some foreign bonds again
were found only at steep declines
from previous prices. A transaction
in Poland 4l2s dropped the quota
ton IA points to 10 and Prussia 6l2s
on the sale of one bond was off II Is
at 51a. Several foreign issues quoted
at sharp declines had not been
traded for some time.
Fractionally to more than a point
up in the corporate groups were
Anaconda Copper Alas, Firestone
Tire 3l2s, International Telephone
5s, Nickel Plate 5i2s, Southern Rail

Readers are throwing both bou-

the zig-zag game is based on a

read the first, third and all odd-num-
bered lines normally from left to right

these reversed lines to eliminate the

Stone House Landmark
Is Being Torn Down

The old stone house that has for
many years been a landmark along
the Flat creek road near Augusta, is
gradually being torn down and its ma
terial used to improve the more mod
ern ranch now owned by Durnin &
Proctor
The house was built by the Embody
family in the early eighties, and at
one time was the old Hogan postoffice.
The place was later sold to Frank
Woodland. who converted the horse and
cattle ranch into a sheep ranch. He
sold out about 80 years ago. Since
then others, among them Louis Heit-
man of White Sulphur Springs and
George Cook of Lewistown, have
owned the ranch. The present owners,
Durnin g. Proctor, have again turned
it into a cattle ranch and have put
many acres into grain. Descendants of
the Embody family now live in Conrad.
