THE BARREL INDUSTRY
IL Took Out Products Last Year Valued at s15,eoo.253.

Washington, D. C.. Dec. 1.-(Special correspondence of The Republican.)-
 The farmer with his potatoes and his apples, the miller with his flour and meal, the hardware man with his nails, the cement manufacturer, and the
 many other users of the faithful slack barrel, that combination of slaves,
 hoops and heading, which is not in tended to hold water or something
 stronger in fluid form. used forest pro- ducts last year having the enormous value of s15,sOO253
 The average man would little sus pect that the humble barrel plays so important a part in the expense ac- counts of the American farmer and manufacturer, the figures complied by the census in cooperation with the
 United States forest service develop this interesting truth. Moreover, sta Itistics taken directly from reports from $50 cooperage mills in all parts of the
 United States show an increase of $1,-
 569, ,6S8, or II per cent. in the value of last years product over that of the previous year.
 In direct contrast to tight cooperage stock, which in the main requires oak timber for its raw material, slack cooperage stock, particularly slaves
 and heading, utilized in greater or less degree, most of the commercially i'm
 portant trees in the country, and for
 this reason it's manufacture was more widely distributed than is the case
 with that of tight cooperage stock
 Twenty species of wood contribut-
 ed to the total slack stave production
 last year. Nearly two thirds of the
 out put, however was manufactured
 from the four species, red gum, pine, elm, and beech, in the order named.
 The figures disclose an interesting movement in the industry in the sub
 stitution of less expensive woods for
 those which for many years were drawn upon most heavily for slack
 stave material, but which, owing to growing scarcity and advancing cost are rapidly being displaced. In 1906 elm slaves were manufactured in 'larg-
 CT quantities than those from any other wood, and constituted nearly one fourth of the total production for that year, with pine and red gum occupy ing second and third places, respec- lively Last year gum jumped to first place, pine to second while elm, with a falling off of 36 per cent in produc-

MAKES THE BEST REMEDY
Prescription for Rheuma tism and Kidney Trouble
Save This or Hand it to Some Afflicted One as it is Eas- lily Mixed and Harmless.

The following prescription for the cure of rheumatism and kidney and bladder troubles has no doubt been filled millions of times. viz: Fluid Extract Dandelion, one-half ounce; Compound Kargon, one ounce; Com pound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three ounces. These simple, harmless in gredients can be obtained at any good prescription pharmacy at little cost and are mixed by shaking well in a bottle.
 The dose for adults is a teaspoonful after each meal and at bedtime, drinking a full tumblerful of water after each dose It is stated that this prescription is a positive remedy for kidney trouble and lame back, weak bladder and urinary difficulties, espe- cially of the elder people, and one of the best things to be used in rheu- matic afflictions, relieving the aches and pains and reducing swellings.
 A well known authority states that this mixture acts directly upon the eliminative tissues of the kidneys; cleanses these spOngelike organs and gives them power to sift and strain the poisonous waste matter and uric acid from the blood which is the cause of rheumatism.

tion, dropped to third place. Beach, maple, spruce. chestnut, and ash fol- lowed in the order named.
 While slack stave and heading pro- duction was reported last year from practically all the states engaged in the manufacture of lumber, a considerable percentage of the stock, in fact, being turned out as a by-prOduct of lumber, the industry was to an extent localized the five states of Pennsylvania, Mis- souri, Michigan, Arkansas, and Vir- ginia, in the order named, contributing 56.S per cent of the total production. The distribution of the industry of hoop manufacture is much more limit ed than that of slaves and heading, and is due primarily to the fact that this commodity is made chiefly from elm timber. Ohio led in the quantity of hoops manufactured, closely followed by Indiana, the output of these two states forming 67.3 per cent of the total production.

 Town.

Shortly before noon yesterday the grass in the rear of Dr. Palmer's home caught fire and for a while some ap- prehension was felt for the out build ings and dwelling as the wind was blowing in that direction at the time.
 There is a large space of ground with high grass between the homes of pr. R. F. Palmer, Fred Bracket and Charles F. Granger, and at this season of the year it was naturally dry and parched. An Indian had been em- ployed to clean up one of the yards and started fire to burn up the trash. It spread to the dry grass.
 The fire created some excitement at first as it was reported downtown that Dr. Palmer's residence was burning. A large crowd soon gathered and the flames were beat out with gunny sacks.

BUILDING CONTRACT
 SIGNED YESTERDAY
1t Calls for the Completion of the New t.,gh School Not Later Than June list, 1909.

According to the terms of the contract. the price to be paid for the construction of the building is S32. .655. and it must be completed by June 1st, 1909. This is termed the general contract, but there are number of smaller contracts in cIuded in it that MT Bell will prob ably suh-let to local parties if he can make satisfactory arrangements with them Mir Bell was seen yesterday afternoon and asked if he cared to say anything for publication regarding the contract and the work. He replied that he was perfectly satisfied with the conditions of the contract and felt that everything would be moving in good shape in short time. When he will start work depends largely upon when the fund resulting from the sale of the bonds is received. As yet this has not been forthcoming, but is ex- pected daily. This matter being ad- justed. Mir. Bell said he would at once break ground and get busy with the hope that the building might be com pleted even before the time specified in the contract owing to the warm weather.
 The contract for the heating and ventilating system was let to the Ma chinery and Electrical company of Los Angeles for S3.15O The representa- tive of the company, F.. A.
