SOUTH CAN PROFIT
BY RAISING STOCK

Atlanta, April 6-(special 1.-THE South
as a Profitable Field for Stock Raising
is the theme of the April issue of the
Southern Field. the official organ of the
land and Industrial departments of the
Southern railway, the Mobile and Ohio,
the Georgia Southern and Florida, the
Alabama Great Southern and the Cincin-
natl, New Orleans and Texas Pacific rail-
roads. Advance proofs which have just
issue, thousands of copies of which will
be placed in the hands of desirable set
tiers now living in the north and west,
will preach a great sermon on the oppor-
tunities for profit in the stock business In
the south.
The leading article tells of the great
awakening of interest in this industry in
the south and the opening of a mammoth
packing house in Atlanta is pointed out
as an indication that the movement for
the south to raise it's food at home is
now we'll under way Well written
articles fully flulustrated tell of the north
ern and western farmer is assured that
by coming south he can procure cheaper
land with climate giving practically
twice as much time for work in the year
and still pursue the kind of agricultural
industry to which he is accustomed in
stead of having no alternative but to
raise cotton.
Wiregrass Georgia and the section along
the line of the Augusta Southern railroad
come in for q considerable share of at
tention, but no section OF the south is neg
lected and though the raising of live
stock is given chief attention all
branches of southern agriculture and in
dustry are touched upon.
This magazine. which is published I'M
der the direction of Land and Industrial
Agent NJ V. Richards, Is great boos-
ter for the south and all readers are as
sured that any one interested in the south
will be given the fullest information or
application to the departments head
quarters in Washington, where facts anc
figures concerning any section or inc
south are to be had at a moments hotice
and a permanent exposition of the south
resources is maintained open to the In
yestigaton of any one.

IRON PRODUCTION
CONTINUES HEAVY
Amount for March Shows That
Business Is Good
NEW RECORD ON INGoTS
United states Steel Corporation Sets
New Figure ON Ingot Production.
Coal Miners Strike Has Lit
tie Effect on Iron

Cleveland O., April 6.-(Special THE
Iron Trade Review tomorrow will say:
In spite of the decreased demand in
some products, heavy production con-
unues. The production of pig iron, ex-
elusive of charcoal iron, for March was
2,5SS,7S6 tons, compared with 2,429.525 tons
in February. but as March had three
more days than February the average
daily production for last month was only
SS,5oS tons. compared with s6,76S tons in
February. 1t is known that some furnace
interests are considering the advisability
of blowing out in order to prevent fur
Their overproduction. A new high record
for ingot production was established by
the United States Steel corporation last
month, when 1891, COS gross tons were
made. This is 5000 tons greater than
any previous month in the history of the
corporation.
The strike of the coal miners has had
little effect on the iron business, the
corporation and practically all of the In
dependents are in a comfortable position
as to their needs OF steam coal, because
ie't Sc pNOi CO has Dc6l COllSCltQ III dHllCl-
patton of the strike.
Coatesvile, Pa, interest has made
purchases of basic amounting to from
20,000 to 5000 tons, part of the ton
mage going at sl7.75 and a part of 1t at
a somewhat lower figure. Aside from
these purchases perhaps 5000 to 10000 tons
of foundry grades were picked up by cast
iron pipe interests in the east. There
has been very little buying in that terri
tory and a fact the pig iron market
throughout the country has been ex-
tremely dull with considerable irregular
ity in prices.
New construction is not developing very
rapidly. The Panama canal commission
is in the market for 5000 tons of steel
parts, including 10000 tons of plates.
orders taken by the American Bridge
company for March amounted to $4,000
tons and probably double that amount
went to independent interests. Some very
low prices are being made on fabricating
in the southeastern territory. The Amer
lean Bridge company has taken $500
tons for the Hearst building. Chicago;
POO tons for the Emerson hotel, Balti-
more; 800 for the Yeon building. Port
land, Oregon, and was low bidder on
the Richmond government building, 1900

York city call for 5000 tons of Bethlehem

Four shops at Indianapolis, $500 tons, has
been taken Ivy the McClintic Marshall

1t Is expected that the Hartman lines
and the New York Central will close
shortly in their inquiry for $500 and 36oC

fore the legislature is the privilege tax
bill, and it is suggested by some of those
who have been watching the trend of
affairs, that it is possible for the state
of Mississippi to cripple itself materially
unless it gees very carefully in this one
matter.
AS is generally known, the Standard Oil
company has knocked out the state In
the lower courts of Kinds county in the
matter of privilege taxes, and the case is
now before the supreme court for settle
ment on very important point.
The attorneys for the Standard Oil COM
pany ettacked the constitutionality Of the
present revenue law in fight with the
stare revenue agent. when they demurred
to the bill OIL the ground that the law was
unconstitutional in that II exempted Con-
federate soldiers from the payment of the
privilege tax. The lower court took the
same position, and on that the state
appealed, but with very small hope of sue
cess. 1t has been shown that in more
than one state the fight against the Stand
ara has been lost on these Identical
grounds, that is that one class of citizens
were given the advantage.
1t has been held in Vermont, and per-
haps In other states, that in the event
the law had exempted crippled and
manned soldiers 1t would have passed
muster but It did not 1t said veterans of
the war. Mississippi hoping to aid and
assist Confederate veterans, made a law
exempting them from the payment of the
privilege tax. II may be that very law
will endanger the constitutionality of the
entire privilege tax system of the state,
and which brings in nearly 100000 per
year.
The legislature is urged to look very
carefully into the matter of the constitu-
tionality of the revenue bill as regards
privileges before it passes finally on the
matter. and IL there be danger shy all
around 1t regardless of who may be af-
| fected.
Better increase the appropriations to
the veterans rather than endanger the
| finances Of the state.

IRON TRADE CONDITIONS.
The Iron Trade Review says:

'lhe iron IrdQe Review" says:
The year 1907 ended in gloom. When the
last day of 1908 passed there was a feeling
OF relief because the twelve months had
been full OF suspense, but there was dis
tinctly confident expectation that 1909 would
record much more satisfactory business
conditions than the two previous years:
This expectation has been fully justified. and
although note of warning of the danger
Of overproduction has been occasionally
sounded, the country has shown its won
derful ability to consume the immense pro-
6uction of blast furnaces and mills. Keen
interest has been felt i'm the trade TO
how the blast furnace operators would
meet the announcement of the advance of
50 cents -Bessemer ores. II soon de-
veloped that while some consumers were
disposed 10 complain. others were not, and
nearly all, with the exception of those of
the East, were ready to place their orders,
hence buying has been very heavy during
the last few DAYS and several million tons
have been contracted for. Some indepen-
dent interests have not announced their

recently announced prices.
Specifying against contracts expiring with
the year was very heavy and canceila-
iions made on account of failure to specify

contracting is being done in a very con-
seryative way, conditions varying accord
