The French method of treating the
cornice as part of the wall is more SEN
sible than the English method of treat
ing it as a part of the ceiling. The
French method suggests feeling of
support to the ceiling, while the Eng
lish method may be accounted for by
the: extensive use made of the plaster
ceilings in the earlier English houses,
and which necessitated thS top part of
thescornice being of the same material
asathe ceiling, in order to inter with It.
There can be no greater drawback to
the, appearance Of room than the com
mon matchboard ceiling, stained dirty
color and vanished, often consisting Of
sappy, knotted and discolored boards.
When painted they are permissible, but
they can not be compared with the plain

white plaster ceiling, which materially
enhances room. Of the many materials
available in. ornamental relief some
very suitable for covering ceilings are
to be found. IF the4ceiling is heavily
ornamented, it is best to have the walls
plain, thus balancing the effect to=the
ceiling. When paper ceilings are used
they should be light in color and de
sign, as heavy pattern paper appears
to bring the ceiling down too far. ~

twenty years the packers of the United
States have been trying to get into
the English market but the corn-fed
bacon will not compete with the Dan
ish bacon, which is fattened on skim
milk, buttermilk and barley. With
peas and little barley, though, we
can produce a bacon as good, If not
better than the best Danish bacon.
I. "The hog raisers Of the San Luis
valley are learning that pigs cannot
be raised by man on horseback. They
are building good hog houses, are
tight-fencing their fields, raising some
roots and barley to go with the peas,
providing rape pastures for summer,

man largely interested in devel-
oping the San Luis valley took car
of the pea-fed hogs to Pueblo last week
and sold them to the packing COM
pany at an advance over the corn-fed
product from the Kansas prairies.
In talking of the pea-fed product the
Valley man said:
San Luis valley hogs are eagerly
sought by the packers and generally
run from ten to fifteen cents above
the corn-fed hogs of the same apparent
grade. The reason for this is that the
peas are nitrogenous in nature, while
corn is starchy. The pea-fed hogs
have stronger constitutions and red

finish about 20 per cent. more hogs
than an acre of corn. It COSTS from
five to ten dollars to plant, cultivate,
hoe and harvest an acre OF corn, and
about $1.50 to plant, irrigate and care
for the acre Of peas. The hogs do
their own harvesting.
THE pea business seems to be bare
ly in its beginning. The peas used in
the valley are socalled Mexican peas,
which seem to be run-out sort Of
black-eyed Inarrowfats. Some of the
farmers have begun to get In new seed
and are pedigreeing 1t with view to
getting strain which will produce SO
to 100 per cent. more peas and vines
to the acre There have also been
some successful experiments in the
way of planting early peas of the
dwarf garden variety and using them
as hog pastures to finish pork for the
summer market, when pork is highest.

LEHIGH VALLEY WITHDRAWS
From Agreement Regarding the One Way
Divisional business.

The Lehigh Valley has followed the lead
Of the Pennsylvania in Withdrawing from
all military, theatrical, labor and other
one way divisional party business. The
lehigh has sent notices to that effect to the
general Eastern passenger agents COM
mittee with the statement that its with
drawal is immediate.
The I4ackawanna, New York Central
and West Shore are the only roads re main-
ing in the agreement. They will be able to
hold one way party DusiGess for themselves,
as it will be possible for them to quote Il
lower rate by 10 per cent. The Erie Is in
the agreement as far AZ military tratti G
Is concerned, but otherwise quotes tariff
rates.
There is no indication that the action Of
the Lehigh and Pennsylvania will bring
about an abolition Of all concessions on
one way party business to preferential lines,
on account Of the divisional arrangement
still in effect. Nor will any change occur
in interchange relations Of the trunk lines
and the Central Passenger Association
roads, since the latter accept all reports
Of the trunk ines without question.
The Lehigh Valley is said to be con-
sidering withdrawal from the agreement
between the trunk lines and the Western
Immigrant Bureau relative to immigrant
traffic,

taken to police headquarters, where she

pose Of collecting the back rent.
She declared that she would not leave
Washington until the persons occupying

COPPER, TIN AND LEAD.
Continuously Good Home end Foreign De-
mands for High G9Ade Copper.

The past week was the best OF the year in
Gales Of lake and eleotruavtio copper for
home and foreign mar aets There was not
a dull day in the week. Toward the end OF
the week g few producers had the idea OF
marking up lake and eleotro,ytio to 10 cents,
This plan was firmly PesisdSd By powerful
Western and Southwestern producers who
hold the opinion that s~OvOsythinG possible
should be done to keep copper down to 1874
or 1870. As important consumers under
stand the copper situation the demands are
right UP to the available supeliea that can
be depended upon through the yea and
ruling price, are warranted by existing
conditions. The markets ore hrm and steady
at lsHole%c. for lake for Bully and August
delivery. Four producers Of lake are making

Demands for steel scrap are increasing. Old

The steel markets are buoyant. In nearly
all lines consumption is fully up to the pro-
duction' at maximum capacity. A number or
tin plate works have been compelled to shut
down because they cannot get sufficient raw
material. The ssme condition exists in several
other steel working industries that are re-
strEoted In output because Of the steel famine.
A dozen steel working plants endeavored to
buy out the interest which took ss, l2o steel

By a trade made In the last week Western
manufac tnrers took over O large lot Of steel
