Chicago, Fob. 13.—Prasaura was “off
the wheat market In today’s short ses

Wheat closed ^ (if %e higher: corn was

There vat lift'* change In the funda

United Kingdom still prevails and tends

American grain. Liverpool wheat futures
advanced 1 1*4 pence the past two
days, while Winnipeg also has been rela

a result have given a better account of
themselves.
Trade in the corn pit was considerably
lighter but prices showed fair gains.
Scattered support by commission houses
and local bulls whs encouraged on the
weak mots. urd covering by shorts was
noted in the deferred months. Country
receipts of corn were moderate.
Oats manifested an undertone of firm
ness . Buvlng through commission houses
was of h better -lass than the selling.
Weakness In th- northwest was re
flected in tlic Irjpal rye pit, and prices

of the plan* ha* been weakened. The
deduction is that unfavorable weather
during March an l April will have more
than the usual damaging effect.

HEALTH IS MOST VITAL TO YOU
Council Bluffs, Iowa.—"A few years
ago after motherhood I could not
gain back my strength. I developed
quite a severe case of woman's
trouble, suffered with bearing pains
which would be so severe I would
have to lio down. I became so weak
that all I wanted to do was lie and
rest. It seemed that every spark of
vitality had left me. I consulted
a doctor and he said nothing but
an operation would help me, hut I
would not consent. T had seen Dr.
Pierce's medicine** advertised, so at
once began taking the 'Favorite Pre
scrlption’ and the ‘Oolden Medical
Discovery* and It was not long until
1 noticed my appetite was returning.
1 could eat, so 1 knew the medicine
was doing me* good. I took about
twelve bottles and it was well worth
it, for It completely restored me to
health, without the operation."—Mrs.

Private Wirvs Atlantic to Pacific connecting with Important intermediate points
in the United States and Canada
Recent request from various sources for information relative to the operation of
the (>'. maximum earning clause in the Transportation Act would seem to indi
cate that there is considerable uncertainty ns to the operation of this limit to earnings on the
common stocks of the railroad companies. This belief has prompted us to prepare for you the
following list showing what some of the more important roads can earn at the “recapture point;
that. is. the 6% limit. The first column will show the maximum earnings from railroad opera
tions alone; the second from other income; third, total earnings reduced to a per share basis.
In making these estimates we have used the Standard Statistics Company esti
mated property valuations and the estimated fixed charges for the year 1023. It
is well to note that these estimates are given to show maximum earnings per share at the exact
point of recapture; i e., 6^. Roads earning more than A"* on their property value would etill
be entitled to retain as a reserve fund one half of the excess.
You will notice that of the 26 roads presented only three would have earnings
of less than 6% on their common stocks, if the full six per cent on their prop
erty values were earned.

In looking back over the recent favorable action of the railroad securities the
hutstandiiiK feature seems to be that most of the activity and appreciation was
registered in the non-dividend paving securities with future prospects, while high grade invest
ment issues were overlooked; that is unlit Ihe p l week or so. We refer to such stocks as Atchi
