Some women have such great fears of
old age that wearying over it's approach
makes them grow old prematurely.
There are some women who declare
they don't want to marry. They are

COTTON SEED FOR STOCK.
An Industry That the cattlemen Have Found Profitable.

Jackson, Miss-In spite of the advanced price of cotton seed huls and meal those Mississippi stockmen who have been feed ing cattle for the markets have made good money this winter and scores who have heretofore been too timid to risk their capital at the business will go into the business largely next season. Cattle purchased last fall and fed three months on the above and no other ration have fattened wonderfully and increased large ly in weight. One of the largest ship ments reported was that made by Ca- rothers & Hill of West Point, to Chicago a few days since Thirty-five cars car ried seven hundred head. averaging 1200 to Chicago, and it is understood that the shippers realized BIO per head. They have 800 more on hand that will be sent North in a few days. It Is said that this was the finest lot of cattle ever seen in Miss issippi and proves a revelation to many who have been doubting that cotton seed meal and hulls would put on fat like corn From Europa twenty eight car loads of cattle have been shipped since the beginning of winter, going to New Or leans as a general thing. Many other towns report large shipments and in ev- cry instance the statement is made that the shippers were well satisfied with the returns There Is no limit to the possibil- tiles of the industry of cattle feeding in the South, but strange to say, compara- lively little of 1t is done

FEW GOT PRINCES AUTOGRAPH.
Many Vain Efforts Made to Get 1t
 Under Various Pretexts.

From the New York Sun.
 Prince Henry while here was natural ly asked often for his autograph but it is estimated that not more than 100 persons succeeded in getting It. Most of the re- quests came by mail.
 The Prince, who had met the autograph fiends on the other side, decided to give his autograph only to certain individuals. These were the president of a society or club of which he was the guest and one or two of those nearest him at ta- ble. To this rule he consistently adhered.
 At all the dinners at which the Prince was a guest in this city and elsewhere requests for his autograph were sent to him in large numbers, most of them in notes addressed to him through the pre- siding officer Not a few of these re- quests were made personally.
 The Prince always took pains to inform whoever presided at the dinner of the rule he had made. and left it to him to explain it to the applicants. In accord ance with the rule he made for him. self he always wrote his autograph on the menu card of the presiding officer and of those nearest him at table, some- times extending 1t so that perhaps five or six persons had the favor shown to them at the head table.
 Had he complied with all the requests made of him, it was said by a person who was with him and knew about his mail. he would not have had time to do anything else throughout his visit but write his signature

No Advance in the
 Price of Pig Iron
BY N. p. T. FINCH.

A very pretty fight has been going on of late between runaway prices in iron and steel and conservatism, and conservatism has won. In the fight the steel trust aided by the Southern producers of pig iron, stood for the maintainance of present prices and against higher quotations, and the advocates of advances have been de- feated.
 True, spot lots are selling higher but spot iron does not make the market. It is iron for future delivery that determines prices. Spot iron may be up today and down tomorrow, but the price of iron six or twelve months hence is not in the. na- ture of the case fickle No. 1 foundry Pittsburgh is now worth $19, and No. 2 foundry Birmingham stands at SIP. These are basic prices
 They are remunerative prices. They are half way between the starvation prices of 1S97 and the boom figures of 1900. The American Iron and Steel Asso- citation furnishes a table showing the price of No. 1 foundry Pittsburg since 1877, as follows

In this case it being made to appear to the judge of this court in term time by the affidavit of John F. Martin, solici- tor for and agent of, complainant, that the defendants B. B.

 It is therefore ordered that publica- ton be made in the Age-Herald a news paper published in Jefferson County, Ala barna. once a week for four consecutive weeks, requiring them, the said B. B.

and reasonable compromise, namely, SIP for No. foundry Birmingham.
 The leaders who brought about so sats- factory settlement of the price list were the Steel Trust and the Tennessee Coal and Iron Company. The Steel Trust considerable orders abroad, and the first shipments of foreign iron have arrived. This releieved the presume. And at the recent meeting of Southern producers in New York the Tennesse company stood up bravely for rates that would not check consumption. These two forces won the fight.
 A great deal now depends upon produc- ton. Can it be brought up to the de- mand? As long as crops are large and the prices of lrcn reasonable. heavy de- mand may be expected. This demand comes lergely from railroads, and crop prospects thus far, especially of winter wheat. go to show that the railroads will be very ousy for a year to come. This means that much iron will be needed. Can 1t be met?
 Here is where iron o1en disagree. It Is stated that all but 35G,00O tons of the or dinary Southern production for 1902 has been sold. But on the other hand the coke situation is improving, north as well as south, and it is hoped that production can be pushed up to consumption FIX cry stack is expected to do its best In view of home demand that promises to rise to S,OO0,OOO tons this year. The de- mand for steel is enormous, the steel trust holding 1t is said. orders for fully 6000, coo tons.
 This Is the more surprising because this is the fifth year of activity and heavy demand. The period of prosperity began in 1898. The following year was better. and 1900 was still better, but 1901 eclipsed them all in point of consumption. No one can put a limit to the period of prosperity if the conservatism that has recently triumphed can be maintained and runaway prices prevented.
