North & Judd has been the most active of our local manufacturing stocks, and a great many shares have been bought and taken out of the market during the last ten days. The stock holds firm at 93 bid, 94 asked, Sales of American Hardwaré have taken place ranging from 131 to 133, and Stanley Works at 88.

Today the life insurance company stocks of Hartford have been active and strong with a ten point advance in Aetna Life stock, the quotation being bid, 780 asked, and Trevel- ors 845 bid, 850 asked. We look to see a further continued advance in these stocks due entirely to the de- mand by investors who are satisfled with a low rate of income but with wonderful possibility of enhancement of their principal. Aetna Accident & Liability is quoted 450 bid, none cffered and sales of Hartford Steam Boiler have been between 425 gnd 430, Connecticut General Life is 630 bid, none offered.

American Brass is quoted with a firm bid of 284 and recent sales have been at 286. With the prospects that the Colts dividend will be increased to 5 per cent. regular and 10 per cent. extra at their coming meecting, and there being some tolk of a large Oc- tober dividend in Scovill Manufactur- Ing company, we look to sce these stocks sell higher in the near futur. Last y r American 1SS a per cent. extra In December after pay- ing their regular quarterly dividend in November. We believe that at least 5 per cent. will be paid at this time this year, and there is a persistent ru- mor that there will be a stock divi- dend in the near future. In this case the capital increase will probably be from $15,000,600 to $20,000,000. Whether the stock were offered to stockholders at par or given to them as a stock dividend the result would be a marked advance over today’s quo- tations.
