SPECIAL STOCKS STRONG FEATURES Early Advance Range Up to Four Points; Coppers Re cover Substantial Degree; Rails Featureless at Irregular Changes New York, April 24. (Wall • Street ( Special stocks were the j strongest features of to-day's early j dealings, advances ranging from 1 I to IV4 for equipments and muni- j tions, to 2-% points for Ohio Gas and 1 almost 4 points for Industrial Alco- | hoi. Coppers also recovered In sub- | stantial degree from their heaviness | of the previous day with pronounced improvement in motors and shipp- j Ings. L". S. Steel rose a material i fraction and gains of a full point; were scored In associated industrials. ; American Tobacco's advance of 5V4 points marked a partial recovery in 1 that stock. Rails were featureless at 1 irregular changes. Shippings, motors and oils were again the objects of attack after the lirst half hour's rise, some of those issues falling under minimum primps of the previous day. Alcohol and utilities also forfeited the greater part of their gains. United States Steel lost all its advance, but Bethle hem Steel new stock held more stub bornly. Trading broadened and con cessions became more general to ward midday when coppers showed further signs of weakening. A two point rise in Wisconsin Central and a two-point decline in "Soo" were the only noteworthy variations among the rails. Bonds were steady.

Amalgamation and consolidation of diversified food manufacturers, packers, can ners aud brokers result in manufacturing and brokering profits, economical operation, quicker turn overs of merchandise and the consequent saving in cost of production, advertising and sales distribution. All these advantages and savings are sources of profit to the United Grocers Corporation, the holding company. Some of the companies whose securities the United Grocers Corporation lias ob tained in pursuance of the foregoing plans are: United Food Products Mfg. Company,... Toledo, Ohio. Wilkes-Barre Who. Grocery Company,.. ..Wilkes-Barre, Pa. United Printing Company, Toledo, Ohio. The Rice Grocery Company, Scran ton, Pa. Central Brokerage & Importing Co., Toledo, Ohio. • S. R. Smith Company, Grantham, Pa.\ Grantham Preserving & Pickling Co., Grantham, Pa. The Adams County Preserving Co., York Springs, Pa. Harrisburg Wholesale Distributing C 0.,.. .Harrisburg, Pa. York Wholesale Distributing Co., York, Pa. Considering the volume of business that is being done at the present time by the companies affiliated with the United Grocers Corporation, and those companies un der contemplation of purchase, together with the improvements that are being in stalled in the company's plants, the volume of business that will be done annually by the combined consolidation should reach a very large and satisfactory total. The United Grocers Corporation's plans of operation which combines manufact uring and brokering, with its sales organization and extraordinary distributive outlets, a conservative estimate 011 net profits on volume of business to be done should make the capital stock of the corporation a most satisfactory and profitable investment. WORLD-WIDE SHORTAGE OF FOOD SUPPLIES There is now and has been for some time, an actual shortage throughout the country of food products of the various varieties and kinds of United Grocers Corpora tion manufactures, packs, cartons, cans, handles, etc., through its subsidiary com panies. The ever increasing demand and shortage for * food products far exceed the capacity of existing American manufacturers. SAFETY OF PROFITS There is 110 safer business than the food industry. The people of the world must be fed, and there could not be a more opportune time than at present to promote and engage in the manufacture, production and distribution of food merchandise. It is a well known fact that concerns such as the Quaker Oats Company, Cream of Wheat Company, Heinz an dmany other similar companies have earned and paid enor mous dividends to their shareholders for many years. The profit margin of food products is ample and constant. 7 Per Cent. Cumulative Preferred Stock, par SIOO.OO per share. Sale Price SIOO.OO per share. Common Stock, par value, SIOO.OO per share.

The Great Divide The woman in the prime of life need not dread to meet the loss of her youth when growing elderly. While some charms diminish, others should replace them —charms of ex perience, cultivation, wisdom. The great physical changes met between the fortieth and fiftieth year are in deed serious, .and are not always well borne. In the strain of modern life, few women arc In condition to meet these 'changes without some appre hension of deranged health. But with the excellent help of Lydia K. Pinkhams Vegetable Compound, that old, trustworthy woman's medi cine, a woman may confidently ex pect to enter later life as well and robust as ever. —Ad v .
