FRACTIONAL GOLD COINS
(Enlarged)

these coins are large and
small Indian heads; large and
small Liberty heads, and
Washington heads. The re-
verses generally contained the
denomination and a wreath
with berries. There are both
round and octagonal pieces in
all three denominations.
Students of this series have
noted that there are no round
81 pieces from 1855 to 1857;
and no octagonals from 1864
to 1867. They explain this by
the fact that the San Fran
cisco Mint began striking a
generous supply Of gold dol
lars in this period. Only a few
were issued by the Mint from
1870 to 1875. whereupon the
private pieces reappeared.
While never authorized by
law, these fractional coins
were tolerated by the Govern
ment until the 1882 law made
it impossible to use the dol
lar" denomination.

CHICAGO GRAIN

CHICAGO, July 10 (AP).-Grain
FUTURES prices reacted rather sharply
today on the board of trade to the
Government crop report with all grains
and soybeanS substantially ahead and
corn weak
This .sharpest runup OF the year
came in January soybean delivery
which started the day up as much as
6'R cents bushel above the close Of
Friday. All other soybean contracts
were ahead by > cents or more.
Brokers said that corn showed sur
priSing resistance to the selling which
was related entirely to the report
After an hour wheat was 3-7s cents
a buShel higher July .S7ss; corn ss-a4
lower July l.23, oats Sal a higher
l9-29s higher July -; soybeans
l94-3ss higher July 2"O'4.
The July crop report issued by the
Agriculture Department Friday is a
bit more bearish than some of the
recent private estimates, particularly
the one by C. NJ. Calvin Of Francis l.
The estimated wheat yield by Gov
eminent for both winter and spring
crops is about "a million bushels more
than GalVin's July figure but the
Government corn estimate is about
1915 million higher.
However, the government estimate
of Soybean acreage is less than GAVIN
reported in his survey week carrier.
He estimated there would be @3,l65,-
600 acreas for harvest this year and
the Government estimated the acreage
at 23,gl7,OOO, a reduction of about s
per cent from last year.
The Government soybean figure is
about in line with its first estimate IN
March. No figures we're given hls
month on the expected yield.
The cutbaCk in soybean acreage mas
been attributed all along to the re-
duction the Government price support
for that crop from year ago, The
! a5S crop was supported at So a
bushel. This years crop will be sup
ported at 81 So
A good deal of the soybean acreage
was shifted to corn which accounts. at
least in part, for an increase Of almost
ii million acres TO S4,3S7 900.

The program consists, in eff
feet, of pooling industry funds
in case of a strike against any
participating carrier, according
to the newspaper.
Payments in case of a strike
could go as high as 100000 a
day, it was reported.
The newspaper gave the fol-
lowing account:
For the plan to go into effect

High Costs of Suburban Livinq
SV SYLVIA PORTER

IF I'd dreamed-well enough
Of that, the answer is far more.
Do you realize that our taxes
on this place have gone up
more than so per cent in the
less than 10 years we've been
here? Do you know what land
scaping has cost us? It's ter
rible, terrific. AS far as saying
is concerned, do-it-yourself is
the bunk. I'd hate to tell you
the amount of materials I've
wasted, the number of jobs that
have had to be done over"
Whats the biggest, most
unexpected expense?"
Maintenance Costly
Maintenance. Maintenance
Of everything. Getting a suit
cleaned is a project, necessitat-
ing a drive in the car. Keeping
tools in order - tools you'd
never buy in the city-iS ma
jor expense. There's blankety-
blank more painting than I an
ticipated. The wind blows, some
shingles come off and there
goes another expense. Next to
maintenance, what has shocked
me most has been what it costs
to do any expanding or rebuild
ing"
But we save on clothes? And
outside entertainments"
Maybe women who live in
the suburbs all the time save
on clothes, but you don't, and
don't. Men actually have to
buy more. because they need
so much in addition to office
suits. And if I pick up fewer
restaurant tabs here, you more
than make up for it in the
household food bills"
so, Mr.. Collins, living in an
apartment downtown is taking
relatively less of our dollar,
living in the country relatively
more?"
Yes. And don't tell me that
we aren't. as you often put it,
'spotting a trend One of these
days, someone is going to do a
scientific poll along your line
and prove it."
Maybe we are spotting a
| trend. Maybe what will do more
to pull folks back to our cities
than all the other forces ex-
perts are now discussing is just
this. the looming expenses Of
suburban versus city living.
