NEW YORK (AP) Realizing gave the stock market a distinctly spotty appearance Thursday, although a few groups improved in quiet trading. Lead, metal manufacturing non and mining, gold, oil and farm shares all displayed a firm tone, as did a number of specialties. Utilities and some of the "blue chip" industrials met considerable profit-taking.

A rise in certain copper products prices appeared to help the metals. Foreign exchanges gained sharply against the dollar. Bonds were irregular, with U. S. Governments improved.

Strength in foreign exchanges got under way earlier in Europe, after the bank of France had cut its discount rate to 4 per cent from 5 per cent. There were also rumors in some financial quarters abroad of a possible further devaluation of the dollar. These were scouted by Secretary of the Treasury Morgenthau, who joined banking circles here in attributing their origin to speculators. The talk apparently had its effect in speculative market quarters, for the gold stocks staged a minor boomlet. George A.

Farmers Organize In Shelby Corn-Hog Meets By Staff Correspondent SHELBYVILLE Farmers in Shelby county are practically unanimous in the stand they are taking for a new program to replace the dead AAA.

Van Planning the farm program The telephone will be a handy aid in your farm management during 1936. Every farmer needs his telephone, not only in emergencies, but also for the time and effort it will save in everyday farm affairs. Evidence of this is found in the large number of farm telephones now going back into service- telephones which were reluctantly given up during the past few years. The farmer who has a telephone is always in touch with markets and can buy and sell to his own best advantage. His family is always within voice range of neighbors, friends and relatives.

The entire household enjoys the feeling of greater security which a telephone in the farm home always gives. The telephone will repay many times its small cost in satisfaction, convenience and protection. Order one now. It Earns It Saves It Protects BELL SYSILM 3 cOAL Coals That Represent Real Economy!
