AIabama'S Iron Ores.

The boom which followed the dis covery of the extensive deposits of iron ore in the vicinity of Birmingham. Ala. in 1882. was without precedent in the industrial history of the United States. and the rush to Birmingham was paralleled only by the stampedes which followed such discoveries as the Comstock lode in Nevada and the Alaska gold fields. The iron ores of Alabama, while inferior in quality to those of Lake Superior. have the ad- vantage of being near deposits of good coking coal and of the limestone requi- site for fuxing. so that Birmingham. the Pittsburgh of the south. can manu- facture pig iron cheaper than any oth- or district of the world.-ArgOnaut.

WESTERN STATES SHOW N. OAK.
HOW ROADS SHOULD Be CONSTRUCTED
DR.. H. r. Brush Who Made Trip of Wonderland Trail
Says People Farther West Have the Edge on This
State-Conditions Much Better Here Though
Western states, notably Washing

Western states, notably Washing
ton, are far ahead of North Dakota
in the matter of good roads building
declares Dr. H. r. Brush Of the uni
versity, who has just returned from a
trip. over the Wonderland Trail. DR..
Brush covered the entire distance in
North Dakota by auto, after which he
asts in Kalispel and with enthusiasts
in Spokane and Seattle. He Also COW

ditions.
In telling Of his trip. DR.. Brush
said:
II started out from Grand Forks
and covered the entire distance
across the state by automobiles, in
specting the trail. met with groups
Of people in Larimore, Lakota, Devils
Lake, Leeds, Rugby, Towner.. Gran
vile, Minot, Stanley and Williston.
Some Good Improvements.
THE trail, for the most part, is an
ordinary dirt road, and, In some cases.
is simply prairie thoroughfare.
Some parts Of 1t, notably around La
kota, Devils Lake. Towner and Mi
not, are improved gravel roads, pass
able in any season Of the year. The
posts have been put up over the larg-
er portion Of the distance, but in some
places have been destroyed by vandal-
ism or otherwise. In some places, in
the western part Of the state, was
informed by farmers. <that some peo-
pie had removed the signs in order to
take the posts.
THE net result of the trip across
the state is: more enthusiasm for the
trail, a bringing of adjoining counties
into closer communication and the de-
velopment of disposition to complete
the making Of the road at once. 1t is
expected that there will be q state
meeting early in the fall, prior to the
Interstate gathering. In Williston. I

From Williston. I went to the

through which there is no road. and
tramped over one Of the proposed
routes. It was learned In Montana
that the government has surveyors at

short time before there will be a road
across the park. which will mean the
closing Of the only gap in road COM
munication between Grand Forks and
the coast. i.s
