METALS.

In the pig iron market there has been
only moderate business and buyers are
taking hold in hand to mouth way. AS
producers are not stocking up in excess
OF requirements prices hold steady.
Copper has been quieter and its t,ne
shade easier. Export demand has
been curtailed by fluctuations in ex-
change rates and reports OF relatively
cheap offerings of scrap copper In Eng
land and buyers for domestic consump-
tion seemed to have obtained their more
urgent needs on the recent buying move
ment. The threatened railroad strike
also has had an unsettling or restricting
influence. and il is reported that some
dealers are willing to sell small lots of
electrolytic for spot or nearby shipment
at shade below the 13 cent level Last
months improved business appears to
have strengthened the larger producers
position.
Tin has been firm. Although there ,as
been pressure to sell prompt 1t Is cared
for by better consuming demand and
dealers have been fair buyers or fu-
tures
Lead has been quiet but Arm. as there
has been little accumulation OF stocks
in producers hands but demand has

WHEAT LEADS ALL
GRAINS DOWNWARD
Lack of Support, Discouraging
Seaboard Reports and Rail
Situation Lower List.

CHICAGO, Oct. 22.-Liquidation was in
order on the Board of Trade to-day and.
with wheat leading, all grains closed
weak and lower. Wheat registered net
losses of Ia to 2A cents. Corn was off
4 cent TO q cent and oats were rs a
y cent to u q y cent lower. Provisions
were generally higher, with lard in the
van
Wheat traders were timid at the start
and the market fiuctuated nervously in
the early trading. Lack of support and
discouraging reports from the seaboard
End abroad took out OF the market what
little heart it possessed and. with the
rail strike situation in the background.
there was nothing to encourage buyers.
Argentine futures went TO 4 discount
below Chicago. and London reported that
plate offers were being pressed there.
Some exchanging of futures here for
cash wheat for the seaboarL was re-
corded but the East sold december,
which was taken as an indication that
hedges were being restored.
Trade in coarse grains was light and
mainly local Cash houses bought De-
cember corn early. but shipping sales
were not impressive. and ir view OF the
general situation corn turned weak and
followed In the trail of wheat, dragging
oats with 1t.
Provisions averaged higher under
lessened pressure The railroad situa-
ton was the governing influence. 1t
checked hedging sales. as packers were
cautious about offering October and No
venber deliveries for fear of the strike.
Another effect was the packers demand
for hogs for fresh meat with which to
meet emergency orders in the event of a
strike. Live hogs were consequently
higher at the yards and their advance
was reflected on the board
October lard closed 25c higher other
options being IN to ~ tsc. higher.
Ribs were unchanged to 1oc. higher
and pork was unchanged.

DAIRY
FACTS
POOR cow IS LIKE LAZY MAN
with and Replaced by Profit
able Producer.

How many dairymen would keep a
hired hand on their place who got up
when he felt like It, worked when he
felt like 1t, and did Just as he pleased?
Such hired man would be losing
proposition and the man who would
keep him would soon become bank
rupt.
On the other hand how many dairy
men are keeping boarder dairy cows
that produce just as little milk as they
feel like producing, with little or no
profit to the owner?
A dairyman cannot afford to keep
a man that does not do more work
than he is paid for doing. Neither
can he afford to keep COW that does
not return more money to him than
he puts into her in feed and labor.
How many cows in your herd are
returning a fair profit for the feed

STEEL MELTED IN MILLS.

Conspicuous among a number of
remarkable scenes, in a three-reel
motion picture film recently taken
of an Ohio steel mill in operation,
is one that actually shows the boiling
of molten metal in an open-hearth
furnace heated to 5000 degrees
Fahrenheit. The Photographic feat
of successfully registering this ac-
ton in detail on the film is particu-
larly interesting, because the sub
ject is one that the human eye can
not gaze upon unprotected, accord
ing to an illustrated article in Popu-
lar Mechanics Magazine. Further
more, the extreme heat of the fur
mace cast some doubt on the safety
of the camera, with its charge of
celluloid ribbon, and, while the ex-
posure was made, two men stood
ready to hurl the operator to a cool
er place if anything happened.

SUN HAS" LOST MUCH HEAT
Millions of Years Ago IIuminary Was
Ten Times Larger and as
Much Hotter.

Our sun has not always been the
size that it is now.
In the remote past, a past meas
ured by millions Of years, it was at
least ten times bigger and brighter
AS there was considerable
amount of cloud about in those far
off days, one can imagine what glo-
rious sunsets a break in the clouds
would reveal.
Whether the climate was much
hotter then than it is now is by no
means certain, because, apart from
the cloudiness of the sky screening
so much sunlight, there are other
matters upon which the question of
warmth depends.
There is a limit to the size of our
sun, or of any sun we see shining as
a star in the night sky. Any of
these bodies could grow to such a
size that if it got any bigger it would
burst. In the case of a sun, Nature
steps in and saves it from blowing
itself to pieces by internal pressure.

COTTONWOOD IN DEMAND.

Farmers of British Columbia are
making good use of their cottonwood
trees. Recent experiments have
shown that the buds of the local
species are equal to eastern varieties
in their properties, and the gather
ing of these buds promises to de-
velop into thriving industry in GER
tain parts of the province. Few are
engaged yet, but it is expected that
an exhaustive summary of the cot
tonwood areas will reveal a field for
a large number of workers. Farmers
are receiving so cents bushel for
the buds, which have been shipped
by the carload to manufacturing
druggists in eastern Canada.
