Laun .dry-Ette Electric Washing Machine
Made by the Home Specially Manufacturing
Company, Cleveland, Ohio

.ITHE worst Of these labor-saving de-
vices" said a conservative house
keeper recently. "is that they do only
part Of the work. If a washing machine
would only rinse blue, wiring and dry the
clothes it would be a real labor saver but as it
does only the washing the laundress has to be
hired just the same or one has to do full half
Of the work ones self
The Laun-dry-Ette machine must have been
invented specially to meet this objection. 1t
actually washes, rinses, blues and wrings dry
the clothes within the compass Of its own bright
copper cylinder tub No wringer is visible, be
cause the special feature Of this washing ma
chine is its centrifugal dryer.
The washer is constructed entirely Of metal.
1t consists of copper tub, 26 inches in diam
eter, mounted upon three iron legs with casters.
The motor and moving mechanism are all be-
meath the tub. and the latter is protected by
metal shield
Suspended on the central shaft inside of the
tub is perforated metal basket or inner tub
in which the soiled clothes are placed. Sus-
pended centrally in the tub, on a shaft at one
side. which works up and down while the inner
tub revoves. are two vacuum cups or washing
bells.

are alternated with a variety of cold
dishes. The fruit granite used for
Fridays dinner is composed of COM
bination of fruits in a lemon and
orange syrup. The granite should not
be frozen too firm. as the texture
must not be smooth. but rather of an
icy roughness. This is a particularly
good recipe to serve with fish dinner
when a tart flavor is desirable.

HOTPOINT Electric Range

Made by the Hotpoint Electric Heating Com
pany, Chicago and New York
There is no doubt that an electric range is
the last word in modern kitchen equipment.
When it comes 10 cleanliness, safety, con-
servation of food and favors and the supply
ing Of cool and pleasant working conditions
the electric range stands easily at the head Of
its class.

However, in localities where the electric
rate is five cents or less per kilowatt hour
electric range used even for such long opera
tions as roasting and baking compares very
favorably in the matter of operating expense

It's only disadvantage is its costliness. The
range itself costs little more than a good
gas range, but with the comparatively high
electric rates that prevail in the East an cleo
trio range is a luxury permissible only to the
housewife who does not have to count her dol
lars.

RAILROADS SHORT
ON COAL SUPPLY
Southern Railway Has Supply for
Only Twenty-FOur Hours
on Hand

The Southern railroad has coal supply
sufficient to run its locomotives "a hours.
In normal times a reserve that would
provide for 80 days was kept. ]. III. Stan
fiel. general superintendent of the
Southern railroad, vouch.s for the facts.
But in railroad circles the same condi-
tons exist on virtually every line that
operates into Birmingham.
THE car shortage is still hampering the
movement of COAL" Mr.. Stanfiel said.
.'but the railroads are doing all that they
can to help. The Southern has a 24-hour
reserve, which is due, in large meas
ure. to the railroad transporting the bust
ness of the coal interests instead of lay
ing in reserves for itself.
1.-The Southern Is just putting into the
service the last of 1900 coal cars that
were recently ordered. Some of them
have been seen in the Birmingham dis
trict An order has been placed for 500
more, but do not know when these will
be delivered for use.
There is one factor in which the South
ern is strong. 1t has big supply of To-
comotives, as many as 1t can possibly
use"
Railroad journals carry the fact that
the order for new freight cars in Sep
tcmber were the greatest ever placed by
the carriers in recent years. Relatively
few were ordered during the summer
months, however.

PIG IRON ORDERS
EXCEEDING OUTPUT
Some Predict That Price May Yet
Go as High as Twenty Dollars
Per Ton

The orders for pig iron continue to ex-
coed the output of the furnaces in the
Birmingham district. Orders are being
taken at $3.50 a ton for No. 2 foundry
and Industrial authorities in Birmingham
believe that the price will go even higher
within the next few weeks. Some have
said that $40 pig iron is not an improba-
bility before spring.
The great demand for iron is. of course,
the cause of the prevailing high prices.
However, the cost of making iron is over
81 a ton higher than it was at this time
last year. The higher cost of coal and
ore, together with the labor situation,
has caused the producers to demand a
higher figure.
The market for basic pig iron is firm,
and more than the local furnaces equipped
for it's production can furnish Is desired.
The third unit of the Republic Steel and
Iron company furnace at Thomas will be
soon refined and ready for operation
However, If the Republic decides to be-
gin operations, the furnace will be blown
in about November 10.

COMMITTEE MEETING
CALLED FOR TONIGHT

An important meeting of the educa
tional campaign committee will be held
tonight at 8 o'clock at headquarters In
the Lyon-Terry building. w. r. Feagin,
state superintendent of education, will be
present and make an address. The meet
ing is called by John r. Hornady, chair
man of the committee and a full at
tendance is requested.
There has developed within the past
few days more or less organized oppo-
sition to the amendment and those ia
voring the measure feel that it is nee
essary that they be extremely watchful
and attentive during the last few days
of the campaign. 1t has been reported
that some very powerful interests not
inclined to take any chances on con-
tributing more to the education of the
youth of the state than they are now
paying, are rather active in opposition
to the proposed amendment.

Corporation Counsel J. E. Cooper is faced with the question of deciding what is to become of the section of Corbin avenue between West Main street and the new railroad bridge.
 The public utilities commission has notified the railroad company that the railroad will have to close it's section of the street where the old grade crossing existed and the f1agman, now no longer needed at that point will be shifted to another job. The board of public works will probably be called upon to give a hearing on the closing of that section of the avenue.
