IGHEST LEVEL OF YEAR FOR ~ INDUSTRIALS Ba ic Lines of Business Hard Hit By National Labor ~ Disputes: - New. York, Aug. 19.—This week’s adyance in the stock market prices biduglit the averages of rail and industrial shares to approximately the highest le of the year in Spite of the unsettlement of the in-| ustrial situation. Partial settlement Of the labor trouble in soft coal fields had a beneficial effect on prices: of industrial shares, which yeflected the effect of investments buying, while standard rail shares | continued to be accumulated by large interests and withdrawn from the market, thereby diminishing. the floating supply. | Rasie industries continued to be, hit by the nation-wide labor sputes, production of the United ‘states Steel Corporation being re- duced to sixty per cent of capacity as compared with 65 ot 70 per cent the week before with corresponding zeductions in independent plants. ard the end of the week a modi- | jon of plans for curtailed pro- cuction was made on the assurance. of increased coal supplies. =Failure of the allied premiers to Yreach an agreement, on German: re-| parations imparted an irregular tone| to the foreign exchanges. German marks falling to the extreme low Jevel of 7% cents a hundred or about ix cents below the rate of. a week ngo.. Business in German exchange | has ‘been confined almost entirely ta speculators, most of the commer-| cial business with that country, now being conducted on a dollar basis. Money rates continue easy with the supply generally in excess of the ‘demand, This explains in part the ‘steady rise in bond prices. A mark-| ‘ed decline is noted in new bond of- ferings but two large preferred stock issues of well-known department! stores were well taken. RAILSTRENGTH IS THRILLFOR N.Y. EXHNGE Remarkable .

SE " By, W. H, Porterfield |. San Diego, California, .the most. southwesterly settlement of import- ance in, continental United States, is located on a natural amphitheater; rising from the bay: of the same name to. a height of 300 feet on the surrounding mesa, 14: miles from the Mexican boydet on the south, fac- ing the Pacific ocean on the west, 185 miles southeast of Los Ange- les, and 150 miles west of the wond- erful Imperial “desert”—now valley —and’ separated from it’ by.h bar- rier of beautiful mountain valleys and mountains ranging. up to 6006. feet in- height. a 4 Beyond a question of doubt, San Diego is the loveliest, most charm- ing and most fascinating “home- land” in this country. I ought to know for I've been registering front San Diego for lo ,these 32 years. And a man who wouldn’t boost for his home town ought to be taken out, ‘shot and buried at public ex- pense, So, having told the, truth about my home town, and thus in a mea- sure recognized my obligation to it, gwe’ll proceed with the story. San Diego, came to be, because of the efforts of two “Fathers.” Juni- pero Serra, a sure-enough hero- saint, was a Franciscan monk who came here’from old’ Mexico with a small band of followers and estab- lished the first California, mission at San Diego de Alcala, five miles up the San Diego river from Old Town. Founders Died “Broke” ' That was in 1769 and it was the first European settlement’ onthe Pa- ed States. A century later, in’ 1868, “Father” Alonzo E. Hoston came down from San Francisco in a side-wheel' steam- er, looked upon the sage, brush, cac- tus, chapparal and greasewood cov- ering what is now the business and apartment section of the city (the settlement being located at’ Old Town, four miles away) and bought the whole tract at 26 cents. the acre. |: I_syppose the extra cent was “war tax.” Then Father Horton surveyed his ‘purchase, laid it all out in little blocks without alleys, so as to have plenty of corner lots, to sell, gave ‘away valuable ‘sites to every kind o ‘church, which could muster any sort, of showing, gave away more. for schoolhouses, public buildings, plaz- as, ete. and. finally crowned all by ‘a magnificent donation of 1400 acres in the heart of the city for a great city park in. perpetuity—the site wherein was held in 1915-16 the beautiful Pan-California Exposition visited by thousands from all parts of the world. ,.Father “Horton died: a ‘few years ‘ago, broke, at the age of 94. 1 never knew why we called him “Fa- ‘ther” unless. it was because . he shadn’t any children, Value Higher Now | ‘The other day one of those corner lots bought at 26c cents the acre half a century ago, was leased on a basis: ‘of $4000: the front foot, which as anyone can see is'a distinct advance over the purchase price. * Well, then here you have the | town, a city of about: 90,000 civilians and maybe 20,000 soldiers, sailors, marines and aviators, with their of- ficers, active and retired; for San Diego is the chief army; aviati ‘marine and naval- headquarters of this part of the world and as you can ttain from any of the great advertising: and’ publicity or- iganizations of the’ city, is the pride of all army and: navy men, some $20,000,000 having been spent here in bases’ and’ buildings of ‘Who. is‘ the most’ interesting cit zen‘ of San Diego?

Facing uch. competition, they must ‘deliver he goods.’ The incessant attacks of those who have other forms of mo- tive power to. sell brings: up the question of the use of horses. and ;mules and their right—or economic grounds—to survive. § “The world has, according to. fig- iures recently released by the Insti- ‘tute.

Of this grand total the United Stat has little over 19 million, horses and :6 million mules on farms, and there are around 2 million more at work in :cities, The amount of,feed required for horses varies with their age, size, type, and the character of work they areengaged in.
