Greatest Advance in About
Three Years Bring
Joy to Street
NEW YORK, July t -(P)-filocks
swept Into one of te
- most Impressive iMivances' In
Dearly three years today .under
the stimulus of aggressive buy
ing and paucity of offerings.
Leaders gained a point to 4
or more. Not for' weeks ha all
' street, blue from reduced com
missions because . of dwindling
turnover, seen such an active
session.
Transactions totaled 1.409.960
shares, sufficiently more than
the 1.200.000 which theory says
is just enough to enable broker
age houses to break, even to put
. the day's trading on a "pay bas
is." Of recent weeks few days have
approximated 700.006 shares.
' 74! Iiwum Advance ,
At today's finish, of the 870
. Issues traded. 741 had advanced
, 62 had declined and 67 were un
changed. -.The Associated ress av
erage of 60 stocks climbed 1.8
points to" 66.9,' and that for 15
industrials 2.4 to 33.4. It was
- the broadest climb since Oct. 11.
.1934.'
, !i Steels v led the way from the
" first clang of the starting gong.
Steel Climb to 107
, - " But the ' latter was absorbed
- quickly, and at no time did
prices sag more' than fractions.
U S. Steel, well above the I0t
mark for the first time in eeks
climbed to J 07, up - 5 '.for the
- day.: Bethlehem gained and. He
public, National steel and Amer
ican Steel 'Foundry were strong
on the upside. :
Motors, a bit laggard at the
-start, were aggressive as the ses
sion went on.
Farm Population
Lowered in 1936
A farm population of 31,729,
000 persons as of January 1, 1937,
was estimated today by the bureau
of agricultural economics, com
pared with 31,809,000 on Jan
nary 1, 1936. The net loss of
80,000 persons represents the
first decrease in farm population
since 1929. '
The bureau reported that 1,
166.000 -persons left farms last
year, and that 719,000 moved to
farms from Tillages, towns and
cities. But the net migration off
the farms was almost entirely
offset by an excess of farm births
over deaths; births were estimat
ed at 716.000, deaths at 349.000.
The number of births on farms
last year was the smallest, and
the number of deaths the largest.

CHAPTER XXXVII
"Sit down, Larry, wont you?"
she added, j
But he stood over by the mantel,
his back to the fire, bulking; very
large and solid in the comparatively
. small j- room. He accused her
abruptly, ;
"You've always had it in for me."
"That's not true. . . I"
"Yes, It is.' Don't bother to deny
It. You went before the Board to
. day . . . I know all about it, you
see. Old man Sutton came to the
house before dinner.
She said, "Larry, if you can deny
any of my charges. ..."
. He shrugged. He said, "I
wouldn't trouble .;. what I want to
know is what's the big idea of rid
ing me like this? What do you gain
. by having ma kicked out of school?
. , . Look out, yoaH burn your
- finder," he warned her suddenly.
. - Rose looked down at the forgotten
cigarette and put it in the nearest
ashtray. She said, still standing,
"I don't gain anything of course.
It has nothing to do with me, Lar
" ry." She looked at him steadily. She
said, "You're a bad influence in the
school. You lie, yon gamble, you
cheat you drink. You're a cow
: ard." -
He went very white. . He . said,
You'd better explain that."
"You understand, without ex-
planation," said Rose.
Mrs. Ward came in. She said, be
fore she reached the door, "I'm go
in to ran next door for an hour.
Rose the coffee's on the stove . . .
. Oh . . 1" She looked at Larry m
amazement, "Good evening," she
- said after a second of blankness. "I
thought you were Doctor Kimbcr."
"No auchj lock," said Larry,
laughing. As the older woman's
f ootsteos died awav he said.
"Look here. Miss Ward, I didn't
come here to ask yon to withdraw
' vour eharees ... I came here to up
yon off. IX you don't withdraw them
you may find yourself in pretty
much of a hole. - v. . -
She said, "I don't Intend to with
draw them. Urn. - -"
-"I'-see." He shrugged again.
"Well, don't say I didn't warn you,"
he informed her. and sicking no his
things went to the door. She did not
move to follow him. She heard the
door close behind him. She stood
. there a minute, five minutes, think
ins;, her face set in concentration.
Then she went upsairs for her out
door thines. v
Rose had to talk to someone,' Per-
- bars Jonathan would be. through
work. But she could not endure to
wait here for him. Her mother had
left the. house by the kitchen deor
just before Larry went, Rom went
out, after locking up, and walked
the short distance between her
house and Jonathan's. She found
, the front door unlocked and went in.
. Evelina met her in the hall. Rose
smiled at her.
"Doctol busy?" --s ,
.- "He's in the office, last patient
left half an hour ago, I think," said
Evelina. "But then I just cam in
from an errand." '
The door to the office stood alar.
Rose didn't hear sound as she
crossed the living- room. She was
at the door before she heard Sal
ly s voice, broken, husky. . . .
"I'm sorry to have made such an
Idiot of myself, Kim, but I'm so ter
ribly unhappy.
It was too late for Rose to. B

The number of persons moving to
farms was the second smallest
during this period, and the num
ber of persons moving off farms
also was the second smallest. ;
The bureau said that "with a
decrease in farm population there
is a reversal of the trend observ
ed during the years 1930-35,
when farm population increased
every year. Since 1910 there have
been several periods when the
farm population reported decreas
es. From 1910 to 1918 there was
a decrease which became pro
nounced during the World war.
Following the war, farm popula
tion increased until 1921.

"To beg you to spare him?" in
quired Sally, grinning.
"No, to warn me," said Rose.
"Warn you? Why " asked SaJJy.
"what can happen to you?"
I can be fired." Rose reminded
her. ,
"On what rrounds?" Sally asked
sharply.
"Normally." replied Rose with a
recitative glibness, "for poor class
work, or introducing sex or religious
questions in class or for being a bad
influence on the pupils ... to give
you s few of the possible reasons."
Jonathan turned red and snoke
his mind freely for about twenty
seconds. Sally gaped, at him in frank
admiration. "I never knew yon had
it in yon, Kim," she complimented
him, "My, that's powerful language,
young man!"
Rose was laughing helplessly.
"Don't." she pleaded, "iret an
worked up, I'm just telling you some
of the excuses they the Board
might find to get rid of me."
"Not even my sainted father
would have the nerve 1" stated Sal
ly. She rose and came over to the
other girl and put her arm around
her. "You're pretty regular," she
said, "and we won't let em pat any
thing over on you. ... 'Bye. ...
I've chaperoned you two long
enough. . . . 'Bye. Kim, thanks a

When they were , alone, they
looked at one another, t Jonathan

her once, twice, a dozen times. Rose
freed herself, laughing. -

crop reports from Ohio. In
diana a n d Illinois helped hoist
wheat values to record peaks to
day, but heavy profit-taking can
celed gains.
; Upturns .of wheat prices. 2
cents maximum net here, were in
the face of big receipts of newly
harvested domestic grain south
west totaling figures unequaled
heretofore since The rise of
the Chicago wheat market was
also despite surprise, breaks in
quotations at Liverpool, where at
one stage a tumble of 3 cents
a bushel took place, instead of
3 cents gain that waa looked
for. ..
Rust Damage Heavy
A summary wired from Green
ville, O., said black rust damage
to winter wheat the past week has
been tremendous, reducing yields
to half the June 1 estimate. Spec
ial significance was also attach
ed to predictions current that
damaging stages of black rust in
spring wheat regions w 1 1 1 be
reached next week; notably in the
Red and James river valleys.
: At the close. Chicago wheat
futures . were unchanged to 1
cents lower compared with - Sat
urday's finish, July $1.24-1.24,
Sept. 1.25 -1.26, Dec. 1.28
1.28 corn unchanged to 2
higher, July 1.25-, Sept
$1.13 -4, Dec. 83-; oats
unchanged to off. Sept 39
, and rye to 1 cent up, Sept
91. Proveslons closed 15 to 1
cents dearer.
July wheat In Chicago showed
the most effect of late profit
taking sales, which appeared to
come chiefly from houses with
eastern connections. From a top
of 1.28, July receded to 1.23 v
an dclosed at 1.24-1.24.
! Upturns of corn prices were
especially pronounced for the new
crop month, December. Offerings
of December delivery of corn
were scarce. Uneasiness relative
to prospects for the new dom
estic crop of corn were voiced in
some quarters. Oats and rye fol
lowed wheat rather than corn.
Provisions reflected upturns of
hog values and of corn as well.
