Miners believe in miracles because
they perform them. although, to the
miner. these are all in the days work.
Stories of rock drilling and hard-rock
mining have never lost their fascind-
ton. There is something about delv-
ing into the bowels of the earth in
search Of natures treasure that APP
peals to the layman. whose knowledge
is onfined to what he has heard or
read Today mining holds forth more
than ordinary appeal, for the value
and quality Of the work going on
thousands of feet underground is a
real indication OF the proper kind of
Americanism. Some remarkable
achievements in driving handbook
tunnels and mine drifts have been
made possible by constant improve
ment in mining methods and in the
construction and design of the tools
used. Many times in the past the
Lake Superior district has set the
pace for this class of work. but moth

All of this work was under the di-
rection of Superintendent Lucien
Eaton and Captain william franklin
who organized and directed the work
Too much credit cannot be given to
them and the crews for the splendid
record and its consistency. In an
other mine, before the installation of
the most modern drilling equipment,

ing an advance of AGA feet in AIS hours.
When the new machinery was intro

give correct conclusions, as the Diff
ferences in mining suatified ground
and igneous rocks of different hard
ness have SO much to do with the prog
ress made that little comparison
value can be attached to them. The
interest lies in the fact that such good
results have been achieved by using
modern tools and methods.
Whether the record Of asa feet can
be exceeded with equal conditions is
doubtful, hut the introduction of

mp efforts to considerably exceed this
figure. There can he little doubt that

$500 WILL LOSE JOBS
Failure Of Congress to Supply Funds
Cuts Navy Yard Rolls

About % per cent of the civilian en-
ployes at the Philadelphia Navy Yard
will be laid off tomorrow owing to the
failure of Congress to provide sufficient
money for the continuance of their
services.
Some of those who will be discharged
are women clerks who, in the war, we're
taken into the service as yeomanettes.
Some of these women were desirous OF
resigning after the war with view to
taking up the work TO which they had
been accustomed previous to government
employment. but they were told they
were needed and that they could re-
main through the civil service.
Many Of these who accepted that
proposition will be laid of tomorrow
with little or no advance notice. All told
there will be nearly 200 girl clerks laid
off, with about one-t third as many men
clerks.
Most Of the men in the mechanical
line are expected TO find ready employ
ment in various shipyards, At the pres
ent time there are about 5000 persons
employed in the navy yard. The lay
off, is expected to affect about 25OO.

LOCAL TRADING

Little Short of Complete Sus-
pension of Operations
in the List

Today's local market was a creation
in name only. As matter Of fact.
there was little short of a complete
suspension Of animation as we'll as op-
erations. With less than a half dozen
shares of stocks having total transac-
tions of and over 100 shares, some idea
may be obtained of the stagnation.
ANY doubts as to this assertion can
be easily dispelled by reference to the
table Of the days transactions printed
elsewhere. When one stops to con-
slider, however, that almost every ave-
nue. of doing business has been shut
off to the brokers, the extreme dullness
is not surprising. Money for stock ex-
change purposes continued unabtainable
at any rate.
II would require a wide stretch of
imagination to create any significance
or feature out of such diminutive deal
ings. Almost all transactions were per-
funCtOry, and represented cash dealings
on either the buying or selling side. All
the business was in small odd lots and
price changes were small. About the

Commodity Markets
GRAIN MARKET

Chicago, June 20.-Most Of the news
affecting corn was bearish today and
the market was weaker. Crop advices
were more favorable and the hot spell
apparently was broken in sections,
while good rains were shown In a large
part of the belt.
Mondays receipts aggregated 523
cars. which did not indicate any sudden
ending of the movement. Most receiv-
crs expected good arrivals for ten days
or two weeks at least.
The cash article was l to 2 cents
lower early, but later some grades I'M
proved.
At the outset, there was a rush to
sell futures by local operators who were
long over night. Pressure was applied
against July in anticipation of de-
liveries. On extreme dips, fair support
developed all around, but bulges caused
a resumption of offerings.
Better crop reports, rain over the
dry spots of the belt and the weakness
in corn all contributed toward a lower
market for oats.
There was a moderate rally from the
bottom, caused by provt- taking by
shorts. due to stability in the cash
article and good shipping demand.
Following this, pressure was renewed
against futures and the improvement
was not maintained.
Leading futures ranged ss, folIow,;

Poultry houses may be bnilt with or

floors should be scraped and new soil
put in two or three times year to
keep them sanitary. If board floors
are used they should be both tight and
smooth so far as to make them dry
and easy to clean. If possible they
should be eight or ten inches from the
