The Queen and Crescent route has de-
cided to extend its dining car service on
It's morning train from Birmingham to
East Bedford. Va. The change will be
effective on the morning of June TO- when
the first diner will be attached to train
No. 2, which leaves at 5:45 o'clock going
north.
In the past the diner has been attached
to the train at Alfalfa, but the business
has increased so much recently and so
many desired to breakfast before arriv-
ing at Alfalfa that the change was made.

night on train No 1, which arrives at
1920 o'clock.

An appropriation of s75S,0O0 has been
made for rebuilding bridges and culverts
along the Erie railroad as a part of the
comprehensive scheme now under way
for the complete rehabilitation of the
road. This does not include the sum of
$500 600 to be used for the improvements
at the Fifty-first street yards in Chicago,
nor the lesser expenditures on the Niles
and Lisbon, Newcastle, New York, Sus-
quehanna and Western and Bath and
Hammondsport divisions of the Erie
The largest single expenditure is one of
$4,000 for the bridge over the tracks at
the Chicago yard, a structure 66 feet long
and 1876 feet wide. designed to do away
with grade crossings at that point.
On the Susquehanna division the ex-
penditure will aggregate s266,o00, where
forty-fve bridges and culverts are being
rebuilt. This work includes the complete
rebuilding of the bridge over the Che
mango river. When this Si4 feet structure
is completed every one of the old style
latticed bridges on the division will be
done away with, a change made neces-
sary by the increased weight of the loco
motives and trains.

Matthew, Addy G. Co.'s pig iron report
for the week of June to 10 says:
While consumers are still pursuing in
large degree their Fabian policy as re-
CARDS buying they are taking an immense
amount of interest in the market. The sit
uation in this respect is vastly different
than it was a few weeks ago. Then con-
sumers apparently did not care about the
market one way or the other. Now, how
ever, they are seeking for information.
There has been since the month opened
a most decided increase in inquiry. APP
parently the greater part of these in
quiries meant that information was want
ed, although fair proportion of them
has resulted in actual business. OF course
we are coming closer to the time when
consumers will have to buy or shut down.
General conditions throughout the country
in the iron trade are sound. Not only are
the steel works in good shape, but the
general and special foundries are full of
business, and they are going to have
plenty of business to keep them fully &C.
cupied during the balance of the year
great many of the very best posted
men in the trade think IL extremely ike
ly that there will be strong buying
movement before the middle of July, and
that this buying movement will not only
stiffen prices, but probably advance them.
In the meantime buyers are watching the
market with the utmost care, all plan
ming of course to buy exactly at the
proper time. Our observation is to the
effect that the stocks of pig iron in con-
sumers' yards have been very much de-
creased in the last few weeks. On the
other hand we do not think that there
has been any increase of a noticeable kind
in furnace stocks In fact, the probable
tiles are, although the actual statistics
cannot be obtained, that the available
pig iron on hand in the country today is
less than it was four weeks ago.

BETTER FEELING
IN IRON TRADE
Large Amount of Business
Placed This Week
COKE is WITHOUT CHANGE
General Conditions Throughout the
Country In Iron Trade Are Sound.
A Strong Buying Move
ment Probable.
COKE is WITHOUT CHANGE

Rogers, Brown & Co.'S Cincinnati mar
ket report says:
There is better feeling manifested in
the iron trade during the last few days.
due to the presence of a number of fair
sized inquiries and a larger amount OF
business placed than for some time past.
The tonnage individually and in the ag-
gregate is small, but there is every ap-
pearance of renewed interest and activity
in these lines.
AS lately noted, the blowing out of some
furnaces and the banking of others, con-
tinue to add to idle capacity and reduce
production About May the rate Of pro-
duction was in the neighborhood of 24Ooo,-
600 tons of pig iron annually. In spite OF
this fact the stocks of pig Iron Increased
only approximately $1,000 TONS much less
than was anticipated during this period.
The production during May was only
slightly decreased, but it is confidently
expected that the reports for June Will
show a very large shrinkage in produce
ing capacity. This Estate of affairs and
the approach of the mid-year, with the
expiration of many existing contracts,
will emphasize the adjustment between
production and consumption, which is In
great measure to determine on what
basis the last six months business will be
done. 1t is noticeable that the stacking
up in demand has been principally among
the lighter trade, while the output OF
finished material in heavy lines, such as
rails, structural iron and similar ma
terial, continues at a great rate. The wait
ing attitude of buyers and sellers con-
tinues, and the fact that the majority
of buyers are not genuinely in the market
when making inquiries, no doubt has its
influence.
Coke is without change, either in de-
mand or price, although there is prospect
of considerable tonnage being booked on
furnace contracts which go into effect
at the beginning of the nalf year Ship
ments of both pig iron and coke con-
tinue brisk.

Will Sell It's Survey.

The La Crosse Leader-Press says it is
reported that the Milwaukee road is
considering project to extend the vi
roqua branch northward from Sparta,
to Melrose in jackson county, and that
the proposed extension will be made in
the spring. 1t is further said that the
survey, bonds and right of way now be-
longing to the Sparta Melrose Electric
railway company will be transferred 70
the Milwaukee road for that purpose.
The last named company was organized
several years ago. for the purpose of
constructing an electric line between
Sparta and Melrose and the right of
way mas been obtained and things are
about ready to carry out the project
The fact that the additional road conld
be operated by the Milwaukee road at
comparatively small expense has induced
the officers of the company to favorably
consider the proposition. The distance
from Melrose to Viroqua is about fifty
miles

Dave Joseph and Lewie Brannen of

dozen fine well bred Angora goats
These animals are excellent specimens
of the breed, and Messrs. Joseph and

purpose of sprouting stump pasture lard
principally That is, these goats w then
turned in upon lard from which the
timber has been cut and stumps left
standing will devour the tender young
sprouts that shoot up around the stunps,
thus exposing the latter to the element s
and causing them t soon die and de-
cay, thereby obviatiug the irksoms jJb

of the Argora goat is profitable owing
to the animals luxuriant and valuable
