BIRMINGHAM STEEL
 HAS READY MARKET
 IN FOREIGN LANDS
Over 63,000 Tons Sent Across Oceans, and Other Filled Dr. derS Are In Transit.
 Movement Continues

Cast iron pipe continues moving out of the Birmingham district to far-away points in quantities.
 The shipments now under way are to Japan, to Cuba and to the Pacific coast.
 One of the cargoes consists of l,2oO tons of gas and water pipe for Cuba. It will load at Mobile. The pipe is now moving to that port
 Page and Jones, Mobile shipping agents, are daily expecting arrival of the ship "Cramp," which will load with 2,35S tons of gas and water pipe for the Pacific coast. This vessel will also carry some pig iron from the Wood ward Iron company and the Sloss- Shef- field company.
 The J. H. W. Steel company New Orleans, Is assembling 1000 tons of gas and water pipe for movement to Japan. This makes the second cargo to Japan in the past few months the other consisting of 5000 tons via port of Savannah.
 
 ments of Birmingham water and gas pipe and fittings since beginning of the year are understood to have been about as follows:
 STEEL TONNAGE
 To Cuba, SO,000 tons. To Japan (in- cluding present shipment), 1000 tons To Pacific coast 25,000 tons. To Brazil 1000 tons. To Java Islands, 500 tons Total 6s,50o tons.
 The United States Cast Iron Pipe company has contributed the maior portion of these movements. but they have also been participated in by the American Cast Iron Pipe and Foundry the National Cast Iron Pipe and Foun- dry. the Stockham Pipe and Foundry and the Central Foundry company.
 Just at present the water and gas pipe trade has slowed up to the point of very little new business, but flange pipe for oil well use is still in very good demand. Deliveries on this class of product are not guaranteed under forty-fiye days. The flange pipe capac- ity of the plants engaged in that manu- fracture has been occupied at maximum during the entire year.
 OIL WELL DEMAND
 The oil we'll demand for steel tubing for pipe lines is also very active. In fact, it is about the most active de- mand in the entire steel trade. One auxiliary of the Standard Oil company placed an order recently for 4O,00c tons of steel tubing. The makers are way behind in deliveries
 Another scarce article in the steel trade is nails. There is not a firm in Birmingham which may be said to have anything like an adequate supply. AT manner of wire mill goods are likewise scarce.

New York.-Many are the wells that
the farmers are Just now digging. or
have Just finished digging, in British
South Africa. for the severity of the
recent drought has compelled a wide
spread tapping Of the earth for water.
and besides many a farmer has de

prepare for other droughts.
And where the wells are being dug.
new windmills are becoming part and
parcel of the South African landscape.
and considerable proportion of the
new windmills are coming across the
ocean from the United States. which
follows naturally the fact that for
some time past the South African
farmer. scanning the advertising col

about windmills "made in the United

to windmills made anywhere else.

Reasons for the abandonment Of

In which he says:
"The records Indicate that II the

Fall to Start on Time.

THE general efficiency performance
on the New ork-Washington and New

this failure of the Newark field man
agement This field failed ten times
10 start its plane on time TO Wash
ington and ten times 10 start on time

"This trouble exists TO some degree
on other fields. II can be eliminated,
or certainly greatly improved, II
planes are promptly inspected. tested
and served In the afternoon before the
flight If the departure OF the plane is
scheduled early the following fore
noon. Aside from this single serious
delinquency, the pilots, mechanics and
field supervisors have cause TO feel
roud OF the record made during
May"

How Efficiency Is Based.

Efficiency in operation OF postal air
planes is based on leaving the fields
within - minutes Of scheduled time
on maintaining n speed for 20 miles
an hour for Curtlss R-4s and so miles
for DH-4s and Martin bombers. on the
absence or number OF forced landings
and on making flights without damage
Of any character to engine or plane in
taking-off. landing, taxing or flying,
The rating by fields In May was as
follows.
