UlllGduU. Improvement IS registered
by the volume of transfers
of property Of all kinds, and cause for
encouragement can be seen in many direc-
tons. The continued purchases of land
and the plans for Improvement of down
town real estate assure many better
ments during the present year. These
will attract the attention of investors to
other desirable properties, which can be
made to yield good incomes by the cree
ton of new structures or the mOderniz-
ing of old ones.
Labor disputes exist only in isolated To-
calities. Some apprehension has been ex
pressed over the possibility of labor diff
culties in the anthracite coal districts
this spring. 1t is possible also that there
may be a controversy between the opera
tors of the bituminous coal mines and
their employees. The former are not pre-
pared to grant that 10 per cent advance
in wages asked by the latter. The OPP
orators say that while the demand for
their product is good the price they get
for it is low. The consequences of strife
in the coal industry would be so serious
that the peacemakers of the National
Civic Federation will be likely to keep
their eyes on the situation and do what
they can to avert strike. Fear of a
coal famine is no longer entertained. The
output of the anthracite mines is larger,
and the better transportation facilities
afforded by the railroads have relieved
the situation.
The snow storm which extended over
wide areas helped the prospects of the
winter wheat crop, but at the same time
had a tendency to depress wholesale buy
ing. That buying is simply deferred for
q short time, however, All grains broke
on Monday last as a result of the iquida-
ton of line of 100000 bushels of May
oats. The rapid selling of May oats
caused decline of 514 cents, but there
was quick recovery. The net change
for the week was a gain of 1sc to nc.
May wheat closed at 7Sc to 7S1sc, Lice
lower May corn closed at 627sc, gain
of 14c to 3sc.
The repeal of substantially all of the
war revenue taxes is recommended by
the ways and means committee of the
House, and, it is believed, will pass both
branches of Congress, giving relief after
July 1 to many business interests.

~ Adverse Influences in the
INV f0Gk business world are few in
L------! number and are not of suf
hcient Importance to defect trade from
its steady course. One month of the
year is already gone, and all that the
records have shown, by comparison with
the corresponding period of 1901, is in the
main favorable-more so even than many
men of experience had permitted them
selves to expect with confidence.
There is no diminution in the demand
for iron and steel products, which con-
tinues greater than the mills can meet
promptly. Assurance of this prosperity
is contained in the annual report of the
United States Steel Corporation, which
says everything indicates that all the ia
cilities Of each subsidiary company will
be taxed to the utmost to supply the de-
mand for this year. The same must be
true also of the independent companies.
The inability to get orders filled in rea-
sonable time is responsible for more inn
ports of German steel. Inquiries have
been made in England by consumers in
this country for pig iron. Production of
pig iron in this district is increasing.
The policy adopted by the United
States Steel Corporation of avoiding adj
vances in prices is being adhered to in
substantially all lines Wire and nail
products have been raised again cents
per hundred pounds, but this is more in
the nature of restoration of past prices.
The new price is still below last years
quotations, which were made before the
various manufacturers were operating in
harmony. Pronounced activity continues
at the structural mills. These plants and
those which turn out railway supplies are
the busiest.

Editor BRAN don News: Please allow
me space in your widely read paper to
say few words to the friends and
lovers Of education.
The board of Spring Hill High
School met at Spring Hill October 49,
This board was composed of twenty
two representatives from different
parts Of the district. The board was
called to order by the president, after
a brief preface by the business mana
ger, the house was ordered for bust
ness. These representatives were men
who seemed to be interested in the
education of the colored youths.
One of the things that seemed not
to be clear in the minds Of the people
was the land deeds. They were called
for and read in the presence of the
body. The deeds were found to be all
right, with one exception, and that
was one word in the first deed that

We have between thirty and thirty
five acres Of land, also several build

Environments, judge the property to
be worth between $500 or 81 900. The
new building known as the teachers
home for the present as soon as fur
nished will be occupied by the princi-
pal and few young men who are
students of the school.
The future hope of the school is
promising. We hope to make an as
cent as the years go by in the history
OF the school. am glad that by our
meeting more Of our tax payers are
determined to do what they can in
their part of the district to encourage
others to pay their taxes, first by pay

have to sit with us great many more
