economies in the conduct Of the business
of the trust In my last letter | made
first public mention of the adoption OF a
process for the saving of at least 500 900
tons of pig iron which had previously
cone to waste in fue-dust. There has
been considerable buying for inside ac-

advertised are OTTER as much or more

Perhaps the nearest approach Vet known

emption in the growth OF vines from
bhght or any form of disease is found
IN new variety grown from potato
balls by Mr. and Mrs. G. h. johnson of
NeWTane, and developed by selections
and two years Of cultivation ON the farm
OF NJ. .. Howe, to whose advertisement
IN this issue of The Phoenix we invite

pleased with the seeding potatoes Won
