Will you please tell your opinion concerning the follow¬

Overland Co., 6Us, ’S3; Motor Wheel Corp., 6’s ’33-

Bank of New York is Trustee of the last three and the 
National City reports very favorably of them. Do you 
consider them to be good safe investments? — -A. L C

Of the bonds you name we think the 
Penn Public Service Corporation 6’s of 
1929 the most desirable. The others un¬ 
doubtedly have merit but are not high 
grade. It is difficult to advise you with¬

a long and honorable record of meeting 
its obligations. It earns and pays divi¬ 
dends on its two issues of preferred stock 
to a New Jersey firm. It was a new com¬

already begun to put their dairies on a 
business basis by keeping accurate 
records of the amount of milk the cow 
gives, and the amount of feed she con¬ 
sumes. 
Belonging to a cow testing association 
is one way to do this, although cow testing 
association membership is impractical for 
a lot of farmers, and it is not absolutely 
necessary. 
As I'have suggested above, there are 
few dairies that do not have at least one 
cow that is so poor that the farmer needs 
no records to know it. The first step is 
to get rid of her, and the next is to begin 
to check up on the others by keeping feed 
and milk weight records.
