STEEL TRADES
GREAT RECOVERY
An Artificial Barrier to
Foreign Competition
Was Established.
By JOHN A. TOPPING.

Chairman. Republic Iron and Steel Co.
The incidents leading up TO the
present steel trade conditions are
too well known 20 require discussion,
and no emphasis is necessary as a
reminder Of the keenness Of the de-
preston which existed prior to and
Immediately following the war. The
general cause Of this depression need
not be discussed, but | think it is
pertinent 20 say that the present
tariff law emphasized our recent
troubles by opening the door TO I'M
fair competition, while, on the other
hand, the war established in our
favor a prohibitiye tariff and caused
the withdrawal from this market Of
the keenest competition ever expert
enced in iron and steel products.
The war also brought to us de
mands from abroad for iron and
steel of an unprecedented character
and as result our home markets
we're quickly lifted out of depression,
in fact, broke all previous records
for quick changes. Accurate figures
Of production are not available at
this writing, but think it is safe 10
estimate that the following figures
for the calendar year 1915 will be
realized: total pig iron, 30,00O,0OO
gross tons; total steel ingots, 3D.
OO0,00O gross tons. While the pro-
duction for the first half of the pres
ent calendar year was not much in
excess of go per cent Of capacity. the
last half years production has brok-
IN all previous records. current pro-
duction being estimated at the rate
Of close 10 38,000,000 gross tons of
pig iron and 36,OOO,0OO gross tons of
steel ingots.
Construction Needs Subnormal.
Present production and consumption
are astonishing when y is taken into
account that constructive demands
are far below normal, it being estI-
mated that the car shops, agrlcult-
ural implement, equipment com
panies and building trades have not
been operated TO exceed go per cent
OF their capacity. On the other
hand. the value of current exports IN
iron and steel for war and other pur-
noses are now running at the rate
of approximately 20 per cent OF our
productive capacity.

New York.
Years Great Progress.
In numerous instances bankers
are quoting foreign exchange rates
"to arrive" against rcmittances from
Chill. This makes it possible for a
Valparaiso banker, for instance, to
know precisely what amount of
London exchange he can buy with
his dollar bills when they shall have
reached New York. Thanks to such
development Of the discount market
in New York City and the spirit of
cooperation shown by our bankers.
we have made in one year as much
progress in introducing the dollar

made in ten or fifteen years OF at

This nation is now entering upcs
an era of marine development. The

well, don't you think that's all
right?'' he asked her as he put his
hand over hers where it rested on the
arm of his chair.
"Oh, yes, of course | do l want to-
morrow to be the happiest day the
children have ever known; but there's
bigger thing than Christmas that we
have forgotten, and that's the school
house where they go day after day."
What do you want for the children
in the way Of school?" the man
asked.
The woman did not answer the ques-
ton, but went to the mantle and pick
ed up small electrical toy above her
ten-year-old sons stocking. For a mo-
ment she held it in her hand and then
asked:
"Why did you buy this for Jim?"
81 bought it because he's wild about
electricity and it's the newest cleo
trical toy 1 could find"
That's just what l expected you'd
say. The parents in this neighborhood
have bought their children up-to-date
toys, even if they had to borrow some
money with which to do it. They want
tomorrow to be real Christmas for
the kids"
''What about the school, little wom-
an? 1t seems to me you're doing a lot
of beating around the BUSH"
mo, Pm not, I'm trying to get you to
the point where you'll see that, while
we are dressing our children in goth
Century clothes, giving them goth Gen.
fury toys, and goth Century fruits and
candies, we haven't provided goth
Century schoolhouse, nor a goth Gen.
fury school system. mean that these
preparations" and her gesture took in
the bullying stockings and the toys on
the mantle, come but once year and
do not have much of an effect on the
child's life. What we need is to give
our children, especially those that live
under the blue skies that cover our
farms, real schools, no matter what
they cost. If parents would only use
some of the Christmas-giving spirit in
developing our country schools, the
country would be so much happier for
the women and the children from one
years end to another"
The Adair County news., 1916-01-05

The fitful flames in the crate under
row of well-filled stockings lighted
the faces of the young farmer and his
wife. Both faces wore the Christmas
smile, the smile which tells the story
that
Christmas comes but once yer,
But when it comes it brings Good
Cheer"
Gradually the smile died in the WON.
ans eyes and the curve of her lips
Strengthened into a hard line Her
glance left the Pickering flames to run
over the row of grotesquely fat stock
ing along the edge of the mantle. Slow
ly she arose, walked into an adjoining
room, and looked at the rosy fat
cheeks of her brood of youngsters who
were dreaming of the glorious morrow.
When she again dropped on the stool
by the mans side, he turned to ask:
'eThey are all snug an sound asleep,
dreaming of Christmas Day, amt they,
little woman?"
YES" she answered, listlessly.
Putting his hand under the woman
chin he lifted her face to look deep
into her eyes before he said:
Something's worryin' you. What is
it? Don't let's start out the night be-
fore Christmas with any worry on our
minds. Have you forgot to get some
present for one of the children, or
what?"
She nodded her head emphatically
and explained:
'.Yes, that's it exactly. We've for
gotten all about the best present of
them all and one that lasts all the
year."
"Well, but what is it?"
tits the school"
The man began to laugh and then
checked himself as he saw the pain
in his wife's face, so he merely said,
quietly:
go ahead, little woman, an tell me
what's on your mind"
Here it is. I've been sitting here
thinking of all the thought and love we
have put into the children's stockings
so that Christmas may bring them
good cheer. I've thought of all the
parents who love their children, as you
and I love ours, and 1 have sorter pic

Il are on the Atlantic and 10 are OF,
the Pacific Coast. The Sixty-second
Congress appropriated ever s51.0o0,-
600 for improving our Rivers and
Harbors and private enterprise levies
a toll of approximately $50.000,000
annually In wharfage and charges for
which no tangible service is rendered.
The latter item should be lifted OF
the backs of the farmer of this ma
ton and this can be done by Congress
directing its appropriations to ports
that are free where vessels can tie ur
to wharf and discharge her cargo
free of any fee or charge.
A free port is progress. 1t takea
out the unnecessary link in the chain
of transactions in commerce which
has for centuries laid heavy hand
upon commerce. No movement is so
heavily laden with results or will
more widely and equally distribute
its benefits as that Of free port
and none can be more easily and ct
fectively secured.

we received a letter from our
friend a few days later. She
wrote, in part:

Was She in Danger?

Several years ago l lived in a
rather isolated place with rail-
road nearby. At that time
tramps were very numerous, as
| presume they always are in
such places, and caused us much
annoyance. Our nearest town
was mile and half away when
we followed the road, but by 60
ing on the railroad track we
could save a good half mile.
A young lady from a neighbor-
ing city while here, received an
urgent summons to return home,
as her father was very ill. 1t
was nearlp shutdown when she
got the telegram, and my father
and brothers were away with the
horses. Mother stoutly opposed
her walking on the track, but she
knew she must reach the station
within half an hour or she would
miss her train, and there was no
other before morning.
So she started, mother watch
ing her with worried look until
she disappeared from view.
We heard what followed when

Water is required wherever there is life
 of any kind. High or
 low tariff, war or
 peace, hard times or
 prosperity do not af-
 feet the individual
 need of it.
 The advance of civ
 ilization has increased
 this need and brought
 about wonderful
 changes in methods of
 qualification and pro
 duction. Just how to
 meet the requirement
 and supply the water
 most satisfactorily has
 been a subject of con
 sideration since the
 beginning of time.
 Volumes have been
 written on the subject
 of water supply. Mil lions of dollars have been spent in installa-
 tions of water systems by which people and vegetation can be cared for properly. The question of sui ficient and satisfac- tory water supply is one of vital interest and universal impor- tance. There are thou
 sands of homes in this
 country equipped with private water
 systems which give the same advantages and conveniences that are found in the big city homes that are supplied by public water systems, but for these homes so equip ; ped, there are many times their number that are not.
 s That the owners of many of these homes } have not improved s their water systems is I due to a mistaken idea about the expense of doing so, and often ] times because they do not know how to go l about it. Right here 2 is where we are in ! correct position to
 help you, because our s experts in this partic-
 ular line are equipped s to advise with you on
 any kind Of an install ! lation you may desire,
 no matter whether it
 be for a windmill, \ tank and tower for q domestic and stock q purposes, or whether q it be for a municipal
 or big irrigation en- q terprise. We will q make these installa-
 tions for you at sur H prisingly low figures, 4 or, our men will ad- # wise you in such a
