year has been adding to the food supply of the district.
 The Ohio river is navigable on one side of tho island, wicket dams above and below giving enough wa ter for the free movement of boats and bargcs at all seasons of the year. On the north side are the tracks of the Pittsburgh, F't. Wayne & Chicago railroad, the northwest system of the Pennsylvania lines west of Pittsburgh, and on the south side are the tracks of the Pittsburgh & Lake Erie, the Little Giant" of the New York Central System. The corporation also has railroad on the island which con- meets with the Central Line on the south side of the river, while a troll ley line runs from one end to the other.
 In connection with the ordnance plant, the corporation is to build houses for the 10000 or more work CTS who are to be employed, but it is conceded that not great many of them can be erected on the isl and. An entire town, perhaps two or three, must be built elsewhere to care for the newcomers, and this, so the story goes in Pittsburgh, the corporation is preparing to do.

Gigantic Ordnance Plant to Be Built There by the United States
 Steel Go.
HISTORY INTEREST," N G
Has Been a Garden Spot and Has Had Many Ups and Downs in History
 of Industry.

PITTSBURG, May 31-Pittsburgh has lost its garden and the long cherished dream of the late John w. Gates, who never was afraid to "bet a million" is about to come true. These facts loom larger when considered in connection with the official announcement of the War Department that the United States Steel Corporation is about to build on Neville Island gigantic ord nance plant.
 For more than a hundred years Pittsburgh has looked to Neville lsl- and for it's vegetables. Lying in the Ohio rivxer at the western edge of the city it is high enough through it's entire length of almost seven miles to escape the disastrous floods which twice every year drive the people from their homes in the low CT part of the old town of Ale gheny. While less than mile
 wide, it is so level that gardeners
 early saw in it wonderful possibili-
 ties, and many hundreds of thous- ands of dollars have been taken
 from it's rich, brown soil. Oil too
 has added to the riches of the isl and. and even now it is dotted with steel derricks topping wells that are
 still producing the light Pennsyl- vania crude oil.
 Of it's 994 acres the Steel Cor poration already owns 250 through it's principal subsidiary, the Carne- gie Steel company, and before the ordnance mills are completed it must
 own much, if not all, of the re-
 maihder.
 This property was bought by the late MT. Gates in the late nine ties when he formed the American Steel & Wire company, and he planned to cover the island with the mightiest wire mills ever erect ed. He went SO far as to build a blast furnace at the head of the island, and to dig deep for the foundations that were to support the heavy machinery his engineers were to install in great steel build ings. But his plans failed because the Steel Corporation was formed and it was necessary for its scheme of things that it take over the American Steel & Wire Company
 and Gates ceased to be a factor in the Independent field.
 Neville island was neglected. Lit tie was done at the furnace and nothing was done to carry out the plans for big mills. In 1908 the Carnegie Steel company, needing more blast furnace capacity, added the Neville plant to its battery, and since that time 1t has been operated spasmodically when the stress of steel demand compelled intensive production. The rest of the tract was leased to gardeners, and every

What MMarun Means.

The word 'sMaru," attached to the
name Of every Japanese merchant ship
and commonly accepted as meaning
"ship," has no especial meaning, &C
cording to Captain Takeshima of the
Japanese steamship Hudson Maru, re-
Gently captured and released by Ger
man raider In the South Atlantic. Cap
tain Takeshima said that the word is
the survival of Japanese custom
centuries old. He explained the or
igin as follows: There are two opin-
ions as to how the custom originated.
One Of the stories Is that in ancient
times the japanese attached 'maru'
to the name Of anything highly priced.
It was first applied to ships name
about 1000 years ago, when the EN-
press lingo sent an expedition to
Korea. She added the word to the
name Of the ship that transported the
troops to Korea. Ever since then
sMaru' has been part of the name OF
every steamship or sailing vessel. It
Is never used with the name Of a war
ship."-Fishing Gazette.

Hot, heavy foods and iced drinks
often play havoc with bad stomachs
In hot weather. The weak ones haven't
got a chance. A quickly chilled or
overworked stomach is starter of
untold misery for it's owner.
When you have that dull, depressed
feeling after eating stomach pains,
bowel disorders, heartburn or nausea,
belching, food repeating-it is the dan
ger point. You want to look out-and
be quick about 1t in this hot weather.
A way has been discovered to make
sick stoInachs well and to keep them
cool and sweet. It is commonsense
way. No starvation plan Of diet is
needed. Make this test and see how
quickly you get a good appetite in
hot weather and enjoy the things you
like without misery to follow.

Spent Yeast Put to Many Uses.

The spent yeast which collects in
breweries and distilleries is put
through a process which turns it out
in the form of buttons, doorbell plates
and knife handles. Formerly this
leftover material was considered to
be bothersome waste; now it is util-
lied, every bit of it. AS it Is gath
cred from the watts the yeast is of a
dirty, gray-brown color. The first op-
Grafton is to dye it and then to work
1t over until it assumes the form Of
powder and can be hot pressed into
any worm. In this stage it is called
"ernolith." 1t may be saved, scraped,
filed, drilled, engraved, turned to an
edge and polished.-Popular Science
