DIFFICULTIES IN THE HARD
WARE TRADE.

The Munchner Neueste Nachrichten
(Oct. p publishes an article on the
hardware industry from a trade
source, in which it is stated that the
industry can not possibly cope with
the rush of orders assailing it lately.
MANY things prejudice the output
possibilities of the works. Apart from
labor trouble, there is the supply of
raw materials to be considered, as the
shortage of wagons, which has set in
earlier than usual this year, has been
the cause of insufficient and Temporal
rily inadequate delivery of materials.
1.-TWO months ago a special raw
materials supply office was instituted
for the Bergisch hardware trade with
the required amounts of frst-quality
steel. A further step has now been
taken to simplify production by reduc-
ing the number of assortments in
hardware manufacture. An increase in
price for a number of articles has
been asked for, bat the decision is still
pending.
"The animated activity of the works
applies to all manufactures, army re-
quirements naturally taking the first

HUNGARIAN suspicious.

A Budapest telegram to the Frank
furter Zeitung (Oct. y shows that the
Hungarians still are distrustful of
the much-discussed economic union of
the Central powers.
The Hungarian Manufacturers as
sociation declares that any such union
must be absolutely conditional upon
Hungary preserving unrestricted her
economic independence, while the err
istence Of her national industries must
be in no way endangered, as only the
development of these industries after
the war can bring about an improve
ment in the financial situation and
make good the economic damage
caused by the war. The association
further insists that the negotiations
now proceeding between the Hunga-
rian and German governments should
be only of an Informative character,
and no definite or binding agreements
Should be entered into as long as the
economic results of the conclusion of
peace cannot be known.

SCARCITY OF FISH.

''The catches from the chief fishing

reached Flensburg, but since then
there have been no good catches; the

HELP WIN THE WAR
Opportunity for All Furnished in
Thrift Stamps.
Lend Your Money to the Government
to Assist In the Battle
for Democracy.

Washington.-War savings stamps,
popularity known as "thrift stamps"
are now on sale. These stamps have
been termed 'little baby bonds" by
the treasury department, and the term
comes nearer explaining them than any
other, for they are virtually govern
ment bonds issued in small amounts.
Back of them is the entire resources Of
the nation, and they steadily increase
In value from the date Of purchase to
the date of maturity, January /, 1923.
This obligation of the United States
government is issued in the form of
stamps, in two denominations, the %.
cent stamp and the SIS stamp.
For the convenience of investors q
s'thrift CARD is furnished to all pur-
chasers of 25-cent stamps. This card
has spaces for is stamps. When all
the spaces have been filled the thrift
card may be exchanged for a So stamp
at post Offices, banks, or other author
lied agencies by adding u cents in
cash prior to February l, 1918, and one
cent additional each month thereafter.
Those who prefer may buy a So
stamp outright. These will be on sale
until January 81, 1918, for $4.12. They
automatically increase In value a cent
month every month thereafter until
January /, 1923, when the United
States will pay So at any post office
for each stamp.
It is also important to note that
war-sayings stamps increase each
month in cost as well as in value, SO
that it is decidedly to the interest OF
the public to buy early.
When you purchase So stamp, you
must attach 1t to an engraved folder
known as war savings certificate"
which bears the name of the purchaser
and can be cashed only by the person
whose name appears upon the certifi-
cate, except In case of death or dis
ability. This certificate contains 20
spaces. II these are oil filed with
"war savings stamps" between Decem-
Der !, 1917, and January 81, 1918, the
cost to the purchaser will be $S2.4O
and on January 1, 1923, the govern.
ment will pay the owner Of the certifi-
cate $100--a net profit to the holder Of
$1760. This is based on an interest
rate Of 4 per cent compounded quar-
terly. The amount Of war-savings
stamps sold to any one person at any
one time shall not exceed $10O, and no
person may hold such stamps to an
aggregate amount exceeding 81, 900.
II the 20 spaces on the "war-savings
certificate are not filed by January
1, 1919, the stamps which are actually
attached will draw interest at the same
rate.
If the holder of "war-savings stamps
desires to sell them before maturity,
they may be redeemed at any post Of
