NEW TORK. May 11. A firmer tone de
veloped today In th securities market and
price movements, though small, were la tba
main upward. Trading was of tha aaraa
listless character aa oa tha previous days of
th week, but operators who had been per
sistently bearish reversed their position to

Th demand waa chiefly for th require

pronounced In United States Stsel. Resdlng.

United States Steel seemed to be the sus
taining force of tha list. An attempt to
force a break was made at the opening,
when large blocks of the stock were thrown
on the market, but the price barely wavered
and' bear tradera were forced to cover at
rising price.
Trading la tha bond market was some
what heavier today and th continued good
demand In this department exerted a favor
able effect on speculative sentiment. Calls
for bids for the Government's Panama
bonds are expected within a few days. Tbs
success of this Issue, which will bear S per
cent, but will be without th circulation
privilege. will be watched with unususl In

In competition with other Investment
securities.
Reports of the gross earnings of 80 rail

frultgTO-wers. wo have embodied In this
Spray Outfit the suggestions which they
gave. ,
The first machines on tha market
were too heavy (weighing not less than
2000 pounds). This machine weighs
only 1300 pounds, which la a feature to
be considered on hillsides and .soft
ground.
The machine is built low enough to
clear the branches of the trees, being
4 feet S inches from the ground. The
tank and cover for the engine are so
constructed aa to serve as a platform
for the operator to stand on while
sprayinic down the calyx. Again it dif
fers from the first machines in that it
is very abort, beine but i feet 8 Inches
wheel base, making it possible to turn
short.
This Spray Outfit, with the Fair
banks - Horse one - horsepower engine,
direct connected to a special pump de
signed to give 200 pounds preaanre con
tinuously thrones two hose connection
and noaalea from a tank: of ISO Rations
rapacity, appeals to the fruitgrowers
because it embodies every feature they
regard as important.
We invite you to Investigate thla en
