The Iron Trade Review says:

developments IN the iron and steel mar
ket this week have inclined strongly
toward the favorable side, and leading
steeI makers are expressing the belief that
the turn from the unsatisfactory state Of
trade and prices has come OF FIRST i'm
portance as indicating the frmer condition
of prices I'm finished material IS the Official
announcement Of the Republic Iron and
Steel Company that IL has advanced its
price on steel bars ITO lice, Pittsburgh
for shipment up TO January !, and 10 llbc.
Tor shipment beyond that date. The sig
uifcapce Of this statement comes from the
fact that the Republic company by IT'S
announcement of last May was the trst
10 inaugurate wholly Independent policy
of naming prices and seeking business IN
the steel trade The movement of South
ern pig iron IN the week has been enormous
and Is estimated At about 10000 tons OF
foundry and basic grades, which was sOid
Birmingham for basic. These prices repre-
sent concessions.

HOW TO DESTROY cHIckwEED
II 10 One Of Easiest Of Noxious
Grasses to Eradlcate-Dls 1t Up
and Burn 1t.

farmer recently asked for a
method to destroy chickweed. The
question was submitted to Mr.. w. A.
Buckhout of the department of bot
any of the Pennsylvania State college,
who sends the following answer:
Referring to the correspondent
who asks for way to destroy chick
weed, am obliged to say that there is
practically no way except to destroy
1t. Dig it up, take it up and burn it
or dig over and cultivate the ground
thoroughly using therefor some crop
which requires the use of power Gull
tivator, if under field culture, or a
hand hoe if it is small garden patch
This is all that is necessary in Grad
icating any weed, as weeds go with
us in this climate. The chickweed Is
one of the simplest and easiest ito
destroy by such common methods. In
large, smooth fields in prairie regions
it is possible to destroy many weeds
by spraying substantially as is done
for fungus and insect injuries, but
such a method is obviously out of the
question on irregular, broken up
ground and in small garden patches.
Chickweed, of course, makes brave
show during cool, moist weather, but
it is an exceedingly innocent little
plant, and will quickly succumb to
such simple methods as l have out
lined. 1t may be necessary to con-
tinue them through series of weeks
in order to meet with full success"
