IRON AND STEEL.
Edward AtklnsOn'H Article in Manu-
 factuPers' Record.

Baltimore, Md, May 12.-(Special.) )-
 In one of his characteristic articles Mir. Edward Atkinson of Boston gives in
 this weeks issue of The Manufactur-
 ers' Record some interesting views
 about iron and steel in this country. He says among other things:
 'The consumption of iron and steel
 in this country at the present time is
 over $50 pounds per head, and may
 reach 500 pounds per head ere long. That is, I believe, nearly treble the consumption of iron and steel in Great
 Britain or Germany for domestic pur- poses, their exports forming 8 large part of the demand. and they supply the greater part of the demand of the ! world outside the United States, which demand is constantly increasing. With | the laying down of every new line of | railway on either continent and the opening of every new line of steam
 ships that increasing demand for iron
 and steel will continue.
 Tt may be remembered that many years ago. when the mileage of rail
 ways of this country numbered s3,000,
 I made a forecast of the necessary ex- | tension of the railway mileage in the | next twenty years, calling for 1l7,0O0 additional miles within that period. The great silver craze of 1893 and the
 paralysis of industry. the interference
 
 where railway mileage was most need
 ed and the temporary adverse influence | of the Interstate Commerce Commis- | sion slightly retarded railway progress, but in twenty-two years my forecast was justified by the construction of
 more than 117,OoO linear miles. The great crops and the vast increase of capital in this country have overcome the wills of war and warfare, of na- tional extrava gance upon the useless armaments and excessive taxation. We are now laying down about 10000 miles of additional railway In this present year. and barring commercial crises or international difficulties due to mili- tarism and imperialism, we must add 10000 aditional miles of railway In
 the next four years in order to even bring certain sections, especially Texas and the Southwest, up to any sort of approach to the conditions of those parts of the country which now have
 an average of one linear mile of rail- way to each six square miles of ter
 ritory."
 While not venturing upon a forecast
 of the production and consumption of iron and steel. Mir Atkinson refers to his earlier forecast and says:
 "In the last or third submitted to you I fixed a year between 1910 and 1915 as year in which the worlds demand for Iron and steel would reach 60.O00,- 900 tons. anticipating what has proba- bly now occurred that Great Britain and Germany would have reached their maximum at the present time. Neither Russia nor China can bring their sup plies of ores into effect under exist | ing conditions, and this country only
 can supply the increasing demand of
 the world for the imperial metals"

INTERNATIONAL SUNDAY-SCHoOL LESSON
Copyright, Davis W. Clark,

to that which is commonly called the Lords Prayer has been pointed out, but in point of fact the divisions are not mutually exclusive. They inter- penetrate, so that 1t is possible to find several different arrangements, all of which may be correct.
 But this lily of a prayer may be lost in the effortto dissect it. It Is far more important that we should discover the spirit of the petition than
 it's mechanical framework. A crisis creates the prayer. It Is no litany intoned at an arbitrary hour by an ecclesiastic designated to perform the service. It is the voice of need which cannot pour itself into any form, however venerable, and which must, per force, extemporize. Jesus stands with the little group of
 men to whom he has made the greatest
 possible revelation, and whom he ex- poets In their turn to. be revealers of
 his truth. He must needs leave them.
 If they fail. all Is lost. He knows what it means to be "in the world" and the world against one. He cries to heaven for these chosen men, that they may be
 kept and sanctified and their unity preserved.
 Getting out of the world, even if 1t
 Is to Ego to heaven" is not the most
 desirable of things. If the disciples
 had made their exit at the same time of Jesus made His. the world would have been unblessed by their testI- mony.
 Jesus was sent, and we are sent. An analogy maintains between the Master and ourselves. There Is a Di- vine idea to be worked out in every human life. This lifts us apove dumb and driven cattle. Jesus example of fidelity to the uttermost is our inspira- tion.

This table shows that the market
price Of co'ton-seed meal and its fe1t'l-
ling value ere approximately the
same. Consequently when this ma
terial is used as a feeding stuff, the
manure is very rich in fertl)izIng con-
stituents. Comparing it with corn,
ton for ton, there is difference in the
manurial value of $16.1G. While this
factor ia feeding is very important In
deed, it Is usually overlooked.
APPOINT IN PRACTICE.
1t has been shown by repeated ex-
per,ments that a poind of cotton-seed
meal is equivalent to L Ii
pounds OF corn, and that pound o!
cotton-seed is worth 175 pounds OF
corn for fattenipg purposes. Taking
this in connection With the above
table, we will realize the immense
value of the cotton seed products for
feeding and manurlal purposes. 1t
teaches the student this important
lesson He cannot afford to sell cotton
seed and buy corn as substitute, even
though the latter is cheaper in price
per ton. A loss follows both in feed
ing and in the manure produced.

81 ?TL4ND NECK PROHIBITION
Law.

The House bill 50 of the Gen :
er | Assembly Of North Caro-
lima. prohibiting the manufac-
tue and sale Of spirituous
H., lors in Scotland Neck. was
la Saturday ratified and sent
to the office of Secretary OF
State.
We have not at hand the
text of the bill and 50 can not
print it. Neither do we know
wnan it goes into effect; but,
ali the circumstances consider
ed we presume that il goes into
eif ect from the day of it's ratl-
ficasion, SO the people OF
Sc otland Neck are now living
under the law of prohibition
against the manufacture and
sac of Intoxicating liquors,
in securing this legislation
tn re has been quite contest
be..7een its advocates and those
W @ opposed it. For a number
of ,-ears, thinking it would be
good for the morals of the town
AMI for the best interest of the
Community in a broad sense.
some of the citizens in Scotland
Neck have labOred and have
gi~ en- their influence for abso-
lutte prohibition. The Con-
swEALTH has been an ardent
supporter of the measure from
the very first, with no earthly
motive but good to those now
in active life and safety and
protection for the boys and
young men who are to grow up
in our midst.
With equal earnestness have
others opposed any effort made
az inst the saloon system,
pr. gnpted by motives which
thy considered sufficient rea-
SOUS for the course which they
pe sued.
Now, that the question has
been settled by an act of the
General Assembly, it becomes
every citizen in Scotland Neck
to support the law, whether he
has been a temperance man or
whether he has been a whis-
key man.
