In the last year Standard Oil of In diana has earned more than eighty- three million dollars profit, or 16.76 per cent on its capital. Earnings of the company increased more than fifty millions, as compared with 1927. Washington, March 26.—The move ment from city to farm and farm to city has slowed up somewhat during 1928, according to figures revealed by the Department of Agriculture. 1,960,000 persons left farms during the last year, as compared with 1,978,-1 000 persons during 1927 and 2,155,000 during 1926. The movemnet from cities to farms was 1,362,000 persons last year, 1,- i 374,000 in 1927, and 1,135,000 in 1926. The farm population is now the I smallest in twenty years, with 27,511,-1 000 on the farms in the United States' on January 1, compared with a peak of 32,000,000 in 1909. The January, 1929, figures may be compared to the January, 1928, figure of 27,699,000 population. This decrease came about despite improved agricultural condi tions. The decrease in farm population in the last year would have been much greater were it not offset by an ex- originally issued to Fred R. (Haines, but was heretofore transferred and as signed to the undersigned by Frad R. Gaines, but heretofore and since the transfer and assignment by Fred R. Gaines to the undersigned has been lost. 4-26-6tc T. J. PEAJCE.
