therefore 1912 in 1917, as com
pared with 1924 in 1916. The
stocks of iron ores at the mines
apparently decreased from 10,-
876,352 gross tons in 1916 to .10,-
100000 tons in 1917, or 29 per
cent.
To obtain these statistics pre-
liminary figures received from
producers Of nearly 95 per cent
of the nor.lal output of iron ore
were compiled under the direc
ton of Ernest F. Burchard, of
the United States Geological Sur
vey, Department of the Interior,
and were supplemented by esti--
mates covering the remainder of
the output.
About IS per cent of the ore
mined In 1917 came, as usual,
from the Lake Superior district,
which mined about 63,964,0O0
gross tons and shipped 64,275, 900
tons, these quantities represent
ing very slight increase and a
decrease of 80 per cent, respec-
lively, compared with 1916. The
shipments of iron ore by water
from the Lake Superior district,
according to figures compiled by
the Lake Superior Iron Ore As
sociation, amounted in 1917 to
62, ,49S, ,901 gross tons. 1t thus ap-
pears that the iron-mining indus
try in the Lake Superior district
has been able to bear the strain
Of the war demand but not to
duplicate the great record Of ore
shipments made by the district in
1916, which amounted to 64,734,-
1913 gross tons. The slight fall
ing off, it is understood, was due
to less favorable weather for
shipping early and late in the
season of 1917 rather than to in
ability of the Lake fleet to handle
the ore mlneQ.
The South mined and shipped
more than 100000 tons Of iron
ore, the bulk Of which was pro-
duced in the Birmingham district
Alabama, but the iron mines Of
Georgia, Tennessee, North Caro-
lima, and Virginia, contributed
about 100000 tons to the total.
The Northeastern States-New
Jersey, New York, and Pennsyl-
vania-increased their produc-
tion slightly as compared with
1916 and shipped to blast furn-
aces approximately 2,446,O00 tons
Of ore. This quantity, however,
represented decrease Of Al per
cent as compared with the ship
ments in 1916.
Colorado, New Mexico, and
Wyoming, the principal iron ore
producing states in the west, are
estimated to have mined and
shipped approximately 666,00O
tons Of iron ore, compared with
TT, ,660 tons in 1916, a decrease
of 7.2 per cent.
| Other states, such as California,
Connecticut, Iowa, Maryland,
Massachusetts, Missouri, Nevada,
Ohio, Utah and West Virginia,
in which there are small iron
mining operations, are estimated
to have shipped about 144,00O
tons Of ore, compared with 1884,
002 tons in 1916, an increase Of
rs per cent.
I The imports Of iron ore for the
eleven months ending November
80, 1917, according to the Bureau
Of Foreign and Domestic Com
merce, amounted to 913,5OO
gross tons, so that probably the
imports for the whole year
| reached 9SS,5OO tons, compared
| with 1926, ,736 tons in 1916.

ELY VOTES BONDS
Proposition Carries by a Vote Of
261 to 42.

The election Monday for the
issuance of 100000 in bonds to
the State of Minnesota for re
funding floating Indebtedness re-
suited very satisfactorily to those
interested in.the management of
the city and the taxpayers in
general. 303 votes were cast on
the proposition out Of possible
700, many figuring that the mat
ter would be so unanimous that
1t was necessary for them to take
the. trouble of voting.
While the affair appeared to
be a small matter to great many
it should nevertheless have Sc
cured full vote of the people,
not necessarily as a necessity but
as a guarantee Of good faith and
to show that the taxpayers were
alive to the interests of the city.
Others again, figured that the
city council was able and COM
petent to handle the affairs Of
the city and that even if they
did not vote, things would ad-
just themselves properly.
The council issued a statement
last week in circular form calling
the attention of the voters to
what migEs be expected should
the bonds not be voted and in
case the council failed to dispose
of them. Now that the bonds
were authorized it is to be hoped
that they may be disposed of 10
the state as per program. Should
there be a slip-up in the disposi-
ton, we would be in the same
position as before the vote, and
the city will be up against a bad
situation.
The vote in the three precincts
on the bond issue was as follows !:
Yes --------133 90 105-261
No - 16 5 21- AZ

SEED CORN IS
HELD UNSUITABLE

The car load of seed corn shipped
to the Martindale elevator at Green's
fork was inspected by agricultural ex-
perts Tuesday afternoon and pro
nounced unsuitable for Wayne county.
]. c. Kline. Wayne county agricultural
agent. was among those wso inspected
the corn.
According to Mr.. Kline the corn was
mouldy, contained nubbins and many
small ears, and gave no evidence what
ever Of careful selection. A telegram
was at once sent to Crabbs. Reynolds
and Company OF Charlottesville. Ind.
through whom the corn was purchased,
stating that the condition of the ship
ment was such that 1t could not be
accepted.
There we're ATS bushels in the car
load which has been announced for
sale to Wayne county farmers at IS
per bushel. Many orders have been re-
ceived from the farmers who have
been awaiting the shipment with some
anxiety, for seed corn is badly needed
at this time.
Mr.. Kline said that an effort Is be-
ing made to locate another car load OF
corn in Wayne county and that he has
some of excellent grade in view.

What Exporters Should Know.

A needle factory had sent to Aleppo,
Turkey, needles that were tied up with
green twine. The Mohammedan mer-
chant who had ordered them returned
the package, for the reason that the
use of the green, the color consecrated
to the prophet, for such purpose was
derision of religion. Another con-
signment of the same factory to China
wrapped up in white paper was return
ed because the Chinese recipient would
not accept goods packed in paper of

New Compact Fire Escape.

One of the boys aboard our navy's
fleet has invented a fire escape which
Is similar to the rope ladders used
aboard ships. His principal object was
to provide a collapsible fire escape
which could be compacted and con-
veniently arranged at the window of a
dwelling. 1t consists of a container
hinged to the sill in such a manner
that by opening the window and fold
ing the container on its hinges the
metal ladder may be unfolded and
dropped. When this operation is gone
through, means is automatically pro-
vided whereby the ladder is held at a
distance from the walls of the build
ing. The advantage of such precaution
is obvious.

MEDICINE
How Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound
Is Prepared For
Woman's Use.

A visit to the laboratory where this
successful remedy is made impresses
even the casual looker-on with the reli-
ability, accuracy, skill and cleanliness
which attends the making of this great
medicine for woman's ills.
Over $50, 900 pounds of various herbs
are used annually and all have to be
gathered at the season of the year when
their natural juices and medicinal SUBJ
stances are at their best.
The most successful solvents are used
TO extract the medicinal properties from
these herbs.
Every utensil and tank that comes in
contact with the medicine is sterilized
and as final precaution in cleanliness
the medicine is pasteurized and sealed
In sterile bottles.
1t is the wonderful combination Of
roots and herbs, together with the
skill and care used in its preparation
which has made this famous medicine
30 successful in the treatment of
female ills.
The letters from women who have
been restored to health by the use Of
