Work at Midcoe is Delayed.
IVAN Buren, Current Local.

ivan Buren, Current Local.)
The severe weather lately has been
very unfavorable to the contractors
VINO are building the immense iron
smelters at Midcoe, the o town
northeast Of Fremont, where the Mid
Continent Iron Company will operate
one OF the biggest blast furnaces in
the United States. 1t is said that four
hundred and fifty cars of brick will be
required to build the huge retorts and
charcoal ovens.
1t was originally intended to have
the plant in operation by June /,
1918, but on account of unavoidable
delays it is expected that the con
struction work will not be completed
before September |. The work Of
getting out ore and cord wood has
been going on uninterruptedly and by
the time the smelter is ready for oper.
alton the company will have enough
ore and fuel on hand to last them six
months or more. AS more mines are
opened up and the supply of ore in
creases through purchases from mines
in other localities the capacity of the
furnaces will be increased.
Unlimited capital is behind the
company, which anticipates a big
business as there is at present an
unusual demand for pig iron to make
war munitions and improvements
Three years ago the average selling
price OF pig iron was SIPS a ton,
Since the war the government has
made a basic price of 1913. 90 a ton.

Fish and Quail Frozen in the Ozarks.
West Plains Gazette.1


1t is estimated that fully one-half
of the quail in this section of the state
have been frozen to death during the
severe weather since December 7th,
and it ia thought that most of the fish
in the smaller streams. have been kill
ed because of the continued frozen
condition of the waters for the past
few weeks.
This serious condition of circum-
stances is related by sportsmen and
game Wardens in this section who
have been making an exhaustive in
vestigation during the past two weeks
to determine the number of birds kill.
ed by freezing and starvation and
who have been endeavoring to have
farmers in the communities try to save
the remaining 1ocks If possible.
Earlier in the winter the state
game department issued an appeal to
farmers asking that they attempt to
save the quail during the winter
months by placing feed in the fields
where the birds we're accustomed to
fly, and in cases where this request
has been needed there were plenty OF
birds.
AS a result of the unusually small
number of birds to survive the winter
it is expected by local sportsmen that
the special session of the legislature
will order a closed season on quail for
the coming year. The fish problem
will also be a serious task for the com
mission to handle during the summer
season, and it is probable that it will
necessary to re-stock most of the
dams from the state hatcheries.

A MAN

In the year of 1902 Mr. J. C. Penney con-
ceived the idea of the present chain of J. C..
Penney Co.'s stores. Starting with small out
put of approximately S29,0O0.OO annual bust
ness and gradually growing by addition of
new stores each year to the enOrmO@ capa-
city of $14,S8O 100000 in 1917. Mr.. Penney's
entire business career has been as clean and
open as book. He is at all times thinking of
his fellow associate and endeavOring to help
the young man to find his goal of success.
Every man employed by Mr.. Penney is
sooner or later taken in as partner in this
wonderful institution as soon as he has proved
his ability.
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1918-05-21

I Not only does Mr.. Penney try to help his
own men to succeed, but he puts every effort
forward to give the public, especially those
Ofmedium circumstances, the very best quail
ity of merchandise Obtainable for the least
possible amount of money.
Operating as we do on strictly cash basis,
and eliminating all unnecessary overhead ex-
pense such as bOOkkeepers, collectors, high
rents, deliveries, fancy and extravagant fix
lures, idle help, etc, we are able to submit mer
chandise to you at much less figure than you
can obtain from our one store competitor.
There is reason why we have grown from
one store in 1902 to 1877 in 1918.
