reports from the northwest turned the

an early advance. The initial strength
was due to rains in Kansas and Okla

erpool. A large increase in rural no
tees of consignments to Chicago tended
to hasten the subsequent bearish re-
action.
Opening prices, which ranged from
Y off to Y up, were followed by oe-
cided setback all around.

Goodyear Extras Cost Us $1, ,635 ,OOO

Goodyear Fortified Tires embody many extras. That's why we call them Fortified.
 Five of those extras are costly features found in no other tire The rest are quality extras which few makers employ.
 If we omitted them all. we could save on this years probable output S1635,OO0. We could add that much to our profits. Yet Goodyear tires would appear to be just as good as now.

While majority of the doctors of the state, 1t is indicated. are of the opinion that the several provisions of the Gorgas bill are benefcent. 1t Is generally admit ted that the most salutary clause Is that which gives all the members of the as- sociation a voice in perfecting sanitation and preserving the health of the peopIe
 At the present time, about 1900 members of the association are politically without voice. Under the proposed bill, these 1900 men by direct vote will elect six of their number to membership on the state health board, and in the election by that board of state health officer. will have taken actual part in naming the highest health authority in the state.
 Many physicians have expressed de- light in the bill, and the 100 counsellors of the assoication are preparing to op- pose its passage through the legislature. As result, it is generally known that an interesting preliminary campaign will soon be precpitated.

Township each employee was asked his
residence at the last pay day. In addi-
ton to fading that IA. 700 mel were in

side in Penns Grove, 1900 III Salem, $500
in Wilmington, 5000 in the several Camps
uear the plants, 1900 at outlying villages
and 500 in miscellaneous towns. This
data is now in the hands of the Salem
gentlemen who have the trolley project
in hand and permission has been given
by Manager Porter to use it.
In addition y, the above we are inform
ed, but not officially, that the pay roll

This number exceeds the highest guess
both in men aud money, aud goes far to
