New York, Jan. 17. The order of
the Fuel Admnistratlon directing tem
porary suspension of Industrial ac
tivity caused severe reactions at the
opening of today's market The
shares most affectee? were those of
companies which ''are likely to suffer
severe curtailment as a result of the
new regulations, - Steels, coppers ,and
allied issues broke 1 to 2 points and
specialties, including motors, 2 to 4
points. Rails were relatively steady,
recessions' in investment issues aver
aging little more than a point. The
selling pressure relapsed after the
first fifteen minutes and by the end
of the first Walf mos"t losses were
largely restored; Liberty bonds eased
slightly.
CHICAGO GRAtN.
Chicago, Jan. 17. Government coal
saving orders tended slightly today
to ease down the corn market. It
was contended by some traders that
the effect of such orders would be' to
relieve traffic congestion and there
fore would help indirectly to facilitate
the movement of corn to market
Opening prices, which ranged from
unchanged figures to 3-8c lower, with
January 127 1-2 and May 1.241-8 to

New York, Jan. 17. Stocks dropped
from fractions to over three points at
the bpening of the Stock Exchange
today, reflecting the attitude of Wall
Street toward the Fuel Administra
tion's drastic fuel order.
Stock Exchange declines were most
marked in. specialties and equipments,
General Motors losing 4 points, Stu
debaker 3, Baldwin 2 1-2, American
Car 2, Republic Iron 1 1-2 and various
other industrials 1 to 2 points. . The
opening ii United States Sfeel con
sisted of 10. C00 shares at 89 1-2 to
90 against yesterday's closing price
of 91 5-8. ,
Officials of the Stock Exchange an
nounced that business .would continue
as usual, pointing out that anything
like a five day holiday would work
severe disadvantages to thousands of
investors and holders of securities
generally. ' The exchanges will hold
daily sessions subject however, to the
regulations imposed by Washington.
President Noble, of the Stock Ex
change, said business there would go
on-as usual, even if the floor traders
and the clerical forces in. the broker
age offices had to wear overcoat1. '
Within half an hour after the open
ing virtually all the losses had been
recovered. A sharp rally set in and
in some cases gains were recorded
over last night's close.

You can rest assured from the experience of many other successful
fanners, stockmen and dairymen that Buckeye Hulls will meet your
needs better than any roughage you ever have used before. You
can look forward to your roughage not only costing you much less
than formerly but giving you better results. No lint. No trash. No
waste. No trouble.
To secure the beet results and to derelep the ensilage odor, wet the httB
thoroughly twetvm hour before feeding. It is easy to do this by
vetting them down night and morning for the next feeding. If at any time
this cannot be done, wet down at least thirty minute. If you prefer to
feed the hulls dry, use only half much by bulk as of old style hull.
