 A steel that will not rust or tarnish is the latest discovery in the trade according to the Iron Trade Review. For years scientists have been seeking such metal and if it is now Il reality the importance of the discovery can hardly be exagge erated.

Az Optimistic View

Business conditions in the BirminS- ham district and in the south, l ne- lieve. are becoming brighter as the weeks pass by" remarked E. .. Rob inson. the popular insurance man.
 Recent complications between the United States and Germany have or late naturally had a tendency to make those in control of large capital some what hesitant in regard to making heavy investments. but it is generally thought that this affair will soon blow over and that business will become more buoyant than ever. In the mean- time industrial operations in and around Birmingham are being pushed with vigor, and there is push anu hustle evidenced in the crowds on the streets of this city which may be taken as clear evidence that matters here are not being allowed to lag. The insur- ance business. of course, responds to the same influences as does the ln- dustrial situation here. but speaking from a personal viewpoint business has taken a most roseate hue In my own line within the past few days.

Young Kansas Agriculturists

Kansas is never averse to trying experiments fact, is always alert for new 'ideas-and notwithstanding the amusement these experiments evoke throughout the country, that state is from time to time giving new ideas that are worthy of imitation.
 w. A. Miller, president of the Citi- gems National bank of Anthony, Kan, has offered to lend enough money to every boy and girl in the county to buy dairy COW. He will take notes, bearing no interest, for one year. The boys and girls are required to keep a record of the profits, and at the end of the year, MT. Miller proposes to ac- cept one-half the gross proceeds from sale of the products, as full payment of the note.
 MT. Miller is clever in realizing that these boys and girls will in a few years be the men and women of the community, and everything that is done to influence them to remain upon the farms and apply intelligent thorough methods, will advance the prosperity of the community.
 Nothing is so effective in tying the boys and girls on the farm as fol them to have property interest there. The owning of live stock is a very effective means. It has also bean found that boys and girls will

ADRIFT WITH THE TIM,
PERSISTENT FELLOWS

Though many songs the poets sing.
 Their very souls aflame, But seldom any guerdon bring,
 Not even local fame. They still invoke the laggard muse
 And fearlessly aspire. However hard the world may use.
 They never seem to tire. If other wights condemned to toll
 In more prosaic ways, In offices and shops to moi.
 With little hope for praise, Would emulate the bard, say we.
 Whom nothing seems to daunt. In this old world there soon would be Less poverty and want.
