 Coal and Iron Center.

Birmingham, Ala, is built on a foun- dation of limestone. It's southern linn Its touch a range of hills which are filled with iron ore. On the north lies another ridge containing immense deposits of coal Nowhere else, it is claimed, are the three essentials for the manufacture of iron and steel found so close together. AS conse- Quence, Birmingham is one of the greatest producers of iron and steel in tile world. A new steel mill, to cost S1,500, ,000, and rod, wire and nail mill, to cost $2.000,o00, are now in process of erection Birmingham makes pig iron at cost of $6 ton and basic steel at an additional cost of from s3 to $5 a, ton. Because of the low cost of production, its mills send more pig iron to foreign countries than all the rest of the United States put together. During the first six months of 1898 Birmingham's shipments to foreign ports amounted to 9S,000 tons of pig iron, in addition to 5000 tons of cast iron pipe. Foreign trade for 1899 will show an increase of more than B per cent over last year.

 How to Make a F'ernerY.

An uns1ghtly or dark corner of q back yard or garden may, without much diff1cuity, be converted into quite an attractive spot by the construction of fernery. This can be done by re- moving the flags, if any, rearing them on edge as kind of border line, filling in behind with good garden soil, if leaf mold and sandy peat are not ob- tainable for mixing it. See that there is plenty of drainage by placing 8 thick layer of broker stones or bricks at the bottom, then add the soil in the shape of a gently sloping bank, stud ding it with rough stones (the rougher the better) from a sandstone quarry. In gathering wild ferns do not attempt to bring home large specimens. Be content with small plants with plenty of root. They will make fair shew in themselves if properly attended to.
 Department Store Law in Missouri
 The anti-department store law of Missouri went into effect recently. 1t imposes a license fee of from $500 to $500 year on all classes of goods designated by it and sold in any store giving employment to fifteen or more persons. The license commissi oner, each city having one. decides whether the fee shall be minimum, maximum or intern af ate. There are depart ment stores in Missouri that deal in ninety and more different classes of goods. At minimum rate, such stores would be compelled to pay from $27,- 900 year upward ia taxes. The small dealers and merchants in single lines of goods will fight for the enforce ment of the law by employing all legal help possible. The department stores will fight the law, striving to prove that it is unconstitutional
