STEEL MAKERS FAVOR
HOLDING Up PRICES
Export Business Reported
Unusually Good; Rail
roads Enter Field.

The Iron Age has this to say of the
iron and steel industry.
The meeting of steel manufacturers
in New York this week is seemingly
the pivot of the market. At all events
1t is the latest reason given for the
holding off of buyers Steeel manu-
facturers are reported to be practical
ly unanimous in favor of holding prices
as they are, in view OF the decline that
has already taken place from the 1907
level and the belief that there is no
withheld demand which lower prices
would release.
Little has developed since the open
ing of the year to throw light on the
ultimate outcome of the present situa-
tion, except the better prospect for
American steel abroad.
Export Business Good.
Export business in steel products
has been unusually good of late. From
the railroad standpoint the Immediate
situation is considered to be better, to
the extent that 220 locomotives have
been placed in the past week and that
rail and bridge demand shows more
promise. The acceptance of the Penn
sylvania rail order for total of $780,
600 tons has been assured by an agree
ment on the price to be paid for the
extra discard. The Great Northern has
bought $500 tons of open hearth rails
and eastern coal road with western
connections has bought $4,000 tons"
The Iron Trade Review says:
1T is understood that cast iron pipe
interests in the east are willing to buy
about 10000 tons if a satisfactory quo
tation can be obtained. The usual
price of basic is $14.50 delivered in
eastern territory, where sales amounted

Short Crop OF
COW PEAS

The enormous demand for Cow Peas last year
carried the price very high, and the crop is
very short and acreage is rapidly extending there
are many indications which point to much high
err prices as the sowing season approaches.
WHIP-PooR-WILL COW PEAS
The Whip-poor-wills are generally preferred in
form, early maturing and especially desirable
for Peas.
NEW ERA COW PEAS.
New Era's are little earlier, and make more
vine than the Whip.poor-wills.
WoNDERFULs, ctAYs AND MIXED COW
fRAS
For Hay, the Wonderfus Or Mixed Cow Peas
are more productive they should always be
planted with an occasional grain of Corn Sorg-
hum Seed, Kaffir Corn etc, which will prevent
the vines from getting damaged by coming in
contact with the ground.
BLACK COW PEAS.
Black Cow Peas are little later in maturing
than Clays, they make d good growth of vine
are exceptionally food for medium or poor land
and will stand almost any amount Of wet wealth
