Is at hand, many. even going so far as to say that it has already begun Fol several days there have come to this city intimations from parts of the country chiefly in the Mississippi valley some oi 1t coming from further west. that the evidence of returning prosperity there is ample, and that there is no doubt that the influence Of this business and manu- Recurring activity will speedily be felt in the east and in the south.
 Reports from Chicago are especially en- thnsiastic. and some of those who make these reports say that the mid-w the remoter west and the northwest are now manifesting an entirely different spirit from that which characterized the busi- ness life of these sections q year ago.
 Another factor which tends to justHy the belief that the turn has begun was the report made by the United States Steel corporation a day or two ago that there had been gain of 412,coo tons in the orders placed with the corporation in January, and this is good deal larger than was thought possible a few weeks ago. In fact, the increase in orders for January and December was nearly 1,0o0,- ooo tons. so that there stood upon the books of the company February a larger amount of thrilled orders than these books have shown since last March,
 Of course somebody is placing orders with the Steel corporation, and as this corporation has not been as greatly bene- fited by foreign orders for war material

as nave been some of the other indus tries II Is reasonable to presume that the
 orders represent increase in domestic
 business
 In the first 10 days Of February there 1 Were various trade association conven-
 tions in and near New York, and if there
 De Included the convention recently held
 at St Louis by the foreign trade asso- clatlon and the one at Washington by | the Chamber of Commerce of the United
 states, 1t would be possible to obtain from those who took part in these con Nentions a fairly good idea of prevailing sentiment respecting business conditions ana prospects. It is learned in this city
 that there was an unquestiona ble spirit
 or confidence and expectation at the re- cent meeting of the Chamber of Com meree of the United States at Washing
 ton. It was probably more clearly demon- strated in private conversation than in more formal addresses.
 President James A. Farrell who was instrumental in organizing the foreign export trade association. evidently sum- narlzed, in statement made d few days ago, the prevailing sentiment which characterized the representatives of many Industries of the United States which LOOK part in that convention. Mir. Farrell cid not hesitate to say that it is not now to be questioned that we are entering upon an era which will become tradi- tional because of its marvellous prosper ity Very likely Mir Farrell spoke, hay Ing in mind especially the gratifying in- crease m the orders which have been placed upon the books of the United states Steel corporation, of which he is resident, in December and January
 Within half an hours ride of New
 York the hardware association. whose
 membership comprises those engaged in that business in Pennsylvania and the At lanuc seaboard states. last week held their annual convention. The members met in Newark. N. J.. a city most ap- propriately selected for a meeting of those engaged in this business. Late in November there were evidences that this important industry was beginning to per celNe signs of returning prosperity It is an industry which has not been espe- cially affected by the foreign demand for American war material and food It has been indirectly affected because hardware, which for the most part is not contraband, has been sought by the mer- chants of Great Britain and of France, the industries of those states being to q considerable extent occupied in manufac- turing war material In fact, it is prob able that it was the first of the domestic industries whose business was not di- rcctly affected favorably by orders from Great Britain and the continent of Flu rope to observe an improvement in do- nestle industry and business
 This statement was emphaticaIly made to this association. by Frank II. Good fellow, of Altoona, Pa, who is president of the association, that there is not the slightest doubt that this industry and business are to have in the year 1915

New York, February 17-fSpeciaL )--zITn- Tess something now unforeseen should of a sudden occur there seems to be no doubt that the short month of February will make a record of exports which will fully i match that of January, and may possibly exceed it. All the evidence obtainable in the second week of February shows that exports are to be maintained and in- creased in this month, and that the ex- cess over imports for the month is likely to reach from sls5 5OO0,ooo to s150, ,0oo 600. One of the incidents of this months busi- ness which will become traditional is the record which February has made for exports of cotton, and if the February record be added to that made in Decem- Der and January then it will be found that in that time the cotton planters Of the south sold and exported 26l7.0oo bales of cotton.

TYPHOID FEVER|N MORGAN COUNTY Number of Cases in Deca- turs and People Boil
 Water

Decatur, Feb. T.-(Special) )-n tho opinion of pr. T. J. Russell. of valher- moosa Springs, pr. Paul Preble of the United States public health service. and a number of other physicians the typhoid fever in the Deeaturs at this time is di- rectly traceable to Huntsville
 Dr. Russell says that the first case of typhoid fever at valhermoosa was last July and the case was that of a man who had visited Huntsville, where there were number of cases of typhoid at that time. Soon after this about 2 other cases developed at and near Nalner- moosa. There is now only one case at Nalhermoosa. The physicians are of the opinion that the water of the Tennessee river became infected from the Valher- moosa country during recent overflows
 Blood from 2 people in the two Deca- turs, who are i'll with fever. has been sent to the state chemit at Montgomery to be analysed. pr. raul Preble is here assisting in an examination.
 Dr. R. B. Dodson. of the Eva precinct, in the southern part of the county, has just reported to Dr. J. l.. Gunter county health officer, that there are 30 or more cases of typhoid fever in his precinct

 Another evidence of improvement is fur- nished by the magnitude of recent financ- ing and the ease with which propositions fer large financing are accepted by bankers.

Normal school. The thing that i'm
pressed them most was the building
for the future growth of the institu-
ton rather than for it's immediate
eNpediency. For instance, the present
building is incomplete and yet its
openings, steam conveyors, stairways,
halls and other basic requirements are
such that it can be enlarged to meet
the demands of the growth for all
time without r%emodeling or enlarging.
This broad foundation is something
that makes the local institution rather
different from the others Of the state.
The only wonder Of the surveyors is
that a board of regents could be found
WHO would thus plan for the future
rather than the present. Martin ia.
cobson was the local member of the
beard during the time when the build
ing was being planned. He was sue
ceeded by J. M. Devine, who in a
large vas responsible for the
NAL might be able in time to extend
purchase of the land which gives the
institution breathing space. Dr.. Craig
head expressed the hope that the Nor
NAL might some day increase

Workable asis.
In a general way the work OF the
surveyors is to get tle several insti-
tutions on a workable basis Of har-
mony. All overlapping will be elm
mated and some of the courses that
are especially demanded by North Da-
kota conditions will be strengthened
and enlarged. This will be especially
so in the lines Of industrial education.
DR.. Bawden stated that the purpose
of the survey would be to give eacz
educational institution tle largest pos
sible scope of individuality. This m
dicates that the local school will no:
suffer at the hands of these advisers.
While nothing was considered in ref
erence to the work of the schools, the
visitors looked over the city and espc.
cially the contributing country from
which the Normal will draw it's sup
port. They were convinced that it
was sufficient for much bigger results
than even the present holds. This

Nearly Done

Williston, N. D., Nov. 9.-Threshing
is practically at an end in northwest
ern North Dakota and northeastern
Montana. There is still a little un-
threshed wheat and fax in the more
unsettled portions of the country.
However, the work remaining will
easily be finished by the smaller out
fits.
Grain receipts have made big gains
at practically all of the elevators in
this territory within the last few days.
AS usual when the crops are heavy,
hauling from some of the points most
distant from the railroads will con-
tinue throughout the winter. Henry
Niehoff, a farmer living lei Opheim,
Mont, estimates that it will take him
a year to market his crop, hauling five
loads to market each week. He rails.
ed more than 10000 bushels Of flax,
wheat, oats and barley.
In spite of three weeks of rainy
weather, which held up threshing at
ter grain was in the shock, grades
are running high. Only a small per-
centage of the crop will fall below
No. 1 grade.
