IRON TRADE REVIEW,
The Enco lragng Features of Last Week
still Continue.

still Continue.
CLEVELAND, o., Feb. 10.-The Iron
Trade Review this week says: The mar
ket for soft steel has furnished further
encouraging indications the past week,
and an advance of from 80 to IS cents
over the lowest prices touched has taken
place. Pittsburg and Chicago have
recorded further heavy transactions in
billets, the aggregate in the two mar
kets being fully 10000 tons, and prices
have advanced to Sl6 Pittsburg, and
$3.50 Chicago. The heavy de-
mand for wire rods is fur
ther feature, and the refusal OF
an Eastern order by a Western
mill indicates how well sold ahead are
the rod mills of both sections-a condi-
tion that contrasts strangely with that
of few weeks ago in this department
OF the market or with that of today in
other departments that could be named
The fact that buyers had been in the
market after advances had been made
in price indicates that the recent pur.
chases had been induced by demands
springing up in the various ramifcations
OF small trading. The encouraging de-
velopments in soft steel have given Il
brighter outlook in other directions.

HEMLOCK LUMBER,
II Is to BE Utilized as Dimension STUFF In
small buildings.

BAYFIELD,, Wis, Feb. 10.-The ulti-
mate manufacture of the large quanti-
tles OF hemlock into merchantable
lumber seems likely to be effected
within a few years. The X. d. Pike
Lumber company is now considering
tins subject, and will probably do con.
siderable III this direction the coming
season. Many of the claims which have
been taken and proved up in this section
contain mostly hemlock and have al
ways been considered as almost worth
less on this account. The new use to
which 1t is proposed to put the hemlock
Is for dimension stuff on the Western
pralries, and the various smaller build
lngs required for corn and other like
grains are to be made in the near future
almost entirely of hemlock.

was paid TO producers in the state OF
Louisiana. The records also show that
the $ll, ia. 290 bounty on cane sugar was
paid to 57s producers, which makes an
average of $40, 1856 TO each of the pro-
ducers. The amount paid as bounty on
beet sugar was divided among seven pro-
ducers or factories, making the average
payment TO each $i2l, T39. This, how
ever. represents only q small pro-
portion Of the number Of beneiic-
iaries under the act. as each
factory handled the crops of large num-
Der Of growers. This is also true of cane
factories. only the proportion of factories
TO producers is believed TO be much less,
while of course IN any persons are en-
poyed IN the work and are direct bene-
fciaries. The figures on acreage for the
year ended June 80. 1894, are not yet all
