The Iron Age will say tomorrow:
The iron markets have gained during the last
few weeks and the gain, while slow, is being
maintained. But conditions are still far from
satisfactory and at the present rate of progress
it will take many months until we are back to
normal.
THE steel corporation is now operating close
to 90 per cent OF Its capacity. During the last
week six blast furnaces have been started by
quirements.

which governs the union iron mills removes AL
most the last of the wage questions. II il dr-

the pig iron markets are dull and in some quar-
tiers are easier.

dispatches some time after the opening indi-

couple of tiers of counties in North Dakota.
The liberal receipts at ST. Louis and Kansas City

price changes few and slight. There was
a fair demand for nearly everything in the

fruit to the Gamers. The latter were paying

mained at S10@20. Small packages Of peaches

simnle comnass.Finder.

A simple compass-fnder, costing II cents. has enabled a western pipe-layer to locate a 12-nch cast-iron pipe bur jed about three feet in stiff adobe soil
 and has saved several days of labor diqging. As described by A. F. Wright. the finder was a magnetized knit ting needle having been discard ed as not sufficiently sensitive. The abers were glued around the ba!anc- ing-point. and the needle was so bal anced as to dip normally about 20 de. erees in order that the two ends might be attracted to the pipe unequally. The needle was mounted in cigar box, with an index card. and a glass cover as wind shield When used, the box vas placed horizon ally on the ground in a north and south direction, and was moved across tie supposed line of Inc pipe, readings being taken every two feet and in this way the location was determined very accurately The defection was twice as great over a bell as over the mid-length of a pipe.
