THE AGE OE STEEL.

If the nineteenth century is looked
back to as the true iron age, the
present century will assuredly in turn
be designated the age of steel. There
was, of course, an iron age known to
the ancients. 1t was the period when
the primitive people of the earth first
used iron in fashioning their imple-
ments of war, the chase and house
hold use. But the invention of the
locomotive and the success of Stepn-
enson's work on the Stockton and
Darlington railroad in England in
1926 gave the greatest impetus to iron
mining and smelling. There were
only eighty-fve small smelling fur
total capacity of $500 tons per an
mum of pig iron. The pig iron pro-
duction of the United States in 1910
amounted to only 53,9OS tons. But in
1865, or forty years after Stephenson
demonstrated the advantage of steam
railroads, British pig iron production
increased to nearly 100000 tons per
annum, while the United States pro-
duced at the rate of 100000 tons per
annum. British furnaces smelted
1O,216,745 tons of pig iron in 1910, and
the American production exceeded
26,OOO,OJO tons. In 1865 Germany
produced SS2,546 tons, Belgium $780,
900 tons, Austria 100000 tons, Sweden
100000 tons and Russia 275,OO) tons.
The worlds production of pig iron in
1865 amounted to 9,O99,66 tons. The
worlds production last year was

The weather bureau announced last
Wednesday the adoption of an additional
marine warning to be known as the
small craft warning"
1t will be represented by red pennant
displayed during the day only. and w IL
be issued for moderately strong winds
only. or. in other words, for such weather
as might interfere with the safe opera
ton of small pleasure craft, but which
would not justify the issue OF regular
storm warning.
Now that you power boat fanatics have
been given enough dope for one Sunday,

One is forever hearing that the sailing
yacht is doomed and that the species Is
already on the wane and these state
ments are accepted as facts by great
many who are not in a position to know
the true state of affairs and even by
some who should know better. While 1t
is true that the advent off the power boat
has caused this type to become de-
servedly popular and to flourish ike the

being sailed for pleasure today than ever

DRAINING SWAMP LANDS.
An Important Item in Conservation
of Natural Resources.

Between muck lands in the east and
alkali lands i'm the west, the drainage
division of the Department of Agriculture
is kept busy.
Just now the drainage division has con-
cluded long and important Leries of in
vestigations into drainage of the At
lantic coast swamp lands This has ex-
tended all the way from Maine to South
Carolina, with several thousand acres of
drainable land in each state. 1t has been
found that nearly all OF the coast tidal
marshes are susceptible to drainage. and
that when they are drained their value is
increased about 100 per cent. Land
worth from 81 to $40 an acre easily ap-
preciated from $40 to 500 an acre.
The department says there are about
100000 acres of swamp lands that can
be drained and used, but that they are now
considerably worse than waste land be-
cause they harbor mosquitoes and other
disease-carrying insects. Much work has
already been done in Illinois Indiana and
Iowa, which are not considered swampy
states, but where there have been enough
swamp lands for their drainage to make
a material difference in the annual health
reports of the regions.

Chiffon combination to control things.
The senator from Charleston says he
formed a coalition with the Fairmont
coal baron to capture the two senator
ships and that he never denied 1t. but
that the coalition ended there. Whether
Chilton's sta ement that the deal between
them was not for future mutual action Is
significant will depend on the turn OF fu-
ture POLITICAL movements III the oeIno-
cratic field within the year.
Senator Chiffon asserts his only pur-
pose at present is TO carry West Flreinia
for the democrats next year. and ne
means for President as Well as Tor the
state ticket There is a suspicion that
he is for Harmon. and there are recent
signs of a waning of Harmon interest
among the Watson followers. winch may
or may not bear out the Chiffon aver
ment that no permanent coalition was
formed between the two senators.
