RAILROAD HAS ENOUGH FUNDS. - 7 New Stock Issue of $25,000,000 Will 1. Not Be Placed on the Market Now. proposed issue of about $20,000,000 of you and Hartford Railroad Company, bably until next. autumn and possibly longer. The ground given for the postponement of the issue In the fact that the company already has enough of incoming funds for its needs for some months to come. Counting the receipts from the foreign loan of 826,- 000.000 and about $10,000,000 incoming during the coming twelve months upon the convertible debentures and also re cclpts from past short. notes the com- pany will have something like 840,- 000,000 in cash for the present year. Another and quite as lmpI‘rI'tnnt a ground for deferring the stock issue Is that in the immediate future there are to be rapid consolidations of the subsidiary properties including the marine and street railway lines, and when this is accomplished tho com— pany will‘bo in :I better position In judge as to the amounts amt time of issue of the new stock, HAD RELATIVES IN NORWALK.

In buying ‘I‘oultry li‘t'l‘dH and especially for little chicks you must be familiar with the food stuffs on sale. because there is a tendency on the part of all millcrs to work off grain that is too poor to sell readily when whole.

This year I have decided to make a little chick iced. composed of choice grains and seeds, carefully selected and perfectly granulated null screen- ed.
