Pleasant Auto Ride

1t was the pleasure OF the editor to
accompany Mr.. and Mrs. Eugene
Laird, Miss Leah Caselberg and
Claud Moore on an auto trip to Wag-
ner Tuesday afternoon. Mr.. Laird
as chauffeur was demonstrating the
merits of the Cadillac automobile.
which claims to stand pre- eminent as
representing the most advanced de-
velopment along practica lines. The
ride was delig htful-one has only to
ride in a Cadillac to appreciate it's
superb riding qualities-then, too,
there are many distinctive features
which characterize the Cadillac. Its
standardization, sturdiness and de-
pendability, extreme care of con-
struction, beauty of finish, and it's
speed capability, were some of the
good points observed as we sped
along. The return trip from Wag-
ner, over some rough road, was
made in tWenty-seven minutes, bet
ter time than that frequently made
by the "Skidoo.'
Going down on the south side of
Milk River the road led through
portion of the area that is b eing ir-
rigated for the first time from the
waters of the South Side Canal and
the scene was most pleasing. The
South Side laterals are full Of water
and many fields are covered with
the long waited for moistu re. The
farmers are happy and at work with
the assurance that their lab or of pre-
pairing the soil and seeding it to crops
will this year bring them good re-
turns, for they have the water at
hand required to produce abundant
crops. Project Engineer Sanford
and Mr., Hill of Wagner, who were
experimenting some field work and
inspecting leak in one of the dikes,
were encountered on the way.

ADVANCE IN STEEL
OUTPUT BY MILLS
OF CORPORATION
Total of Fabricated Product
Contracts Expected to
Overtop 1906 Record.

New York, Sept. 1.-The Iron Age
yesterday said:
More emphasis has been put this
week on the continued opera ton of
steel corporation mills at a better aver
age than that of its competitors plants.
This is due in large part to the excel
lent export trade of the corporation, but
in some lines II appears to have been
increasing its share of domestic bust
ness.
Structural steel shapes are the most
active of finished products 1t is esti-
mated that with the maintenance of
the present rate the 1911 total will ex-
coed that OF the record year 1906 in
fabricated steel contracts by 10 to IS
per cent
Further evidence or rne ssrictness
with which railroads are limiting ex-
penditure has appeared in the frog and
crossing and track supply trades, where
specifications have been cut sharply.
Reports from the wire trade show
that August has been a month of great
er activity than for months. On wire
nails at s1.65 price key, representing
a reduction of 81 ton. has been an :
nounced by enc seller?
