1t is very wisely suggested that the
soliciting committee for the auditorium
fund wait upon the officials of the various
railroads centering here, as did the COM
mittee of Asheville, whereby they secured
$4,000 from one road. The railroads re-
ceive by far the greatest benefit from an
Auditorium and should subscribe liber-
ally.

"The property .oss caused by the
storm will be over a million dollars.
Only three persons were drowned off
Nome beach but the loss Of life up

very heavy.
THE condition Of many storm suf-
ferers at Nome is pitiable in the ex-
treme. Hundreds of them had previ-
ously been reduced to just enough pro-
visions To live on. and these in many
cases were all swept away by the tor

said, are walking the streets. without

IRON PRICES Low.
But An Mills at Work and Thousands
u Men Regain Employment,

CLEVELAND, Sept, 2I-The Iron
Trade Review says;
With a larger operation OF mills than
at any time in months. the iron trade
gives outward signs OF prosperity but
prices are far from satisfactory to
the average producers, The noteworthy
events OF the past week are the agree
ment on the bar iron scale and the
meeting OF steel rail manufacturers.
Adjustment of the pooling and finish
ing scales, after twelve weeks idle
ness OF all the leading union mills, will
put additional thousands Of men at
work and means the steady operation OF
the best-eQuipped bar mills for the re-
mainder OF the year. II appears that
the pressure upon bar iron mills Is not
what might be expected after so long
shut down. and the effect OF the low
prices for steel bars made In the
heavy sales Of July and August has
been the loss to the iron mills for
this year, at least, OF n considerable
tonnage.
The steel rail manufacturers, In FIX
ing a Ss6 price as against SS5 last year,

One reason for this coulse is that
While the first few It's of milk are

from the standpoint of immediate

good of the COW as mixer.
For there isa second reason for
clean mi king. The COW seems to be
controlled in her yield, within limits,
by the demands made on her. If
these are relaxed the yield will d.
minish. If ia par Of the milk is left
in the udder the COW seems to thin k
that there was just that much more

Clean milking is, therefore, of the
