They have been holding a series OF
meetings in the western part OF the
township. Why can't we at least
have an occasional meeting at our
school house! Is there no interest in
the neighborhood Surely the cold
weather has not frozen all the energy
and enterprise out Of the people, has
it?
Mr.. Cowing, the Co. Supt.. visited
the school in this district last week.
There was a little excitement at
our school week before last, caused
by the school house catching fire
from the stove pipe, the pipe having
come apart. But it was soon quench-
ed, a we'll being in the school yard,
and no serious damage done.
J. Y. Kits, lost his only COW
short time ago.
Henry and Johny Zimmerman, took
in one piece of corn out of the cold
last week in our valley. A pretty
cold time for corn husking, but they
were persevering and accomplished
the task.
Miss Mary Young, of Compton, is
attending school this wint er.
William Young is hauling saw logs
to, and lumber from the saw mill near
the Halfway House. That looks like
enterprise, Bill. Pity there is not
s:more to follow, in the business.
A slight mistake was made in print
in my last items. In writing about
Belle Zimmerman living at Bluffton,
the paper stated that she was board
ing. She is working at Mr.. Maltby's.
However, mistakes will happen to us
all, and the editor has had his hands
full of late,
Iwould kindly thank w. S. H., for
Viola Cole, for his reply to 3D." I
read it with great deal of interest,
and think I'D" will have his hands
and heart both full to reply to it.

Low Moon IRON PROPERTY The last
number of The Tdrgsnias gave an interesting
account of the years work of Low Moor fur,
mace, the largest iron manufactury in the State
and one of the most valuable properties in the
Union. During the year Low Moor produced
IS, 4S4 tons of pig iron from 6O,S67 tons Of ore,
an average of 23S tons of ore 10 the ton OF
iron. The quantity of coke consumed in the
furnace was 81 ,673 tons, or 124 tons to the ton
ofiron made The limestone averaged nearly
l 90 to the ton of iron. The average output
per day, including all stoppages, was fraction
over 20 tons. The coke is made at the furnace,
in 104 beehive ovens, the coal being procured
chiefly from the mine at Caperton, on the c.
g. O. Railway,
The Low Moor Company now has upon its
pay rolls 800 men, and the regular working
force averages 600 About 140 families now
occupy company houses in the Low Moor vii
lage, and before long nearly 200 excellent
buildings will be ready for occupation. The
population of the entire estate will reach near
ly 1000 souls
The actual cost of producing ion of iron
at Low Moor is not known, but the editor of
The Vuyinias, from well ascertained data,puts
it at between $12 and $15.
To give an idea of the enormous business of
Low Moor, it may be mentioned that the
quantity of coal, ore, limestone and pig iron
moved for the Company by the G. 8 o. Ry:
during the year was not less than 80, 600 tons, or
nearly one-ienth of its entire tonnage during
the fiscal year 1880.
The General Manager of Low Moor at this
time ia Col. H. W. Goodwin mining and en-
glneering operations are in charge of Mr.. G. F.
Conrad, c. & III. E, and the furnace manager
is Mr.. Shedding. The furnace is now aver
aging nearly 100 tons day. Stock is steadily
accommodating in the yard and the demand for
the pig made is more than the supply. se
