Some Booze.

About half a million dollars worth
of whiskey and beer is at Rainy
River ready to be struggled into
the United States by way of Baud
cite and other points along the
river. It is composed of a carload
of alcohol, one of Scotch, one of
brandy, one of beer and one of rye.
There is also big consignment of
essence of bourbon, which, mixed
with alcohol, makes a fine brand
of bourbon whiskey. The United
Shippers of Winnipeg are the own
ers of the stuff. The Canadian
authorities recently siezed the liquor
but as the supreme court has held
that liquor can be exported from
Canada it was returned to the
owners. We are willing to bet dol
lars to doughnuts that the shipment
will safely reach the bootleggers
and blind-piggers of this country.

Untitled Steel Orders.

The untitled tonnage reports of
the Steel Corporation furnish an in
dustrial barometer that is watched
by all students of the times says
Skilling's Market Review. 1t is
now at an interesting stage. The
decline for the month of July was
2S7 ,544 tons, leaving a total of
4 ,830,324 tons.
1t is worthy of interest to COM
pare the present stage of the I'M
filled orders to the situation as of
May 81, 1919. During May of that
year the decline was 518,375 tons,
and the untitled tonnage at the end
of that month was 4,282,31O, but
the report for the month of June,
1919, disclosed an increase of ton
mage to the extent of Co. 45 tons,
making total of 4,892,855 tons.
This was marvellous transfer
nation to take place in 80 days.
1t suggests how easily the plus
sign may be transformed for the
minus sign in terms of big business,
once the upturn is definite.
The decrease for July this year
was much less than was expected.
The position of the Corporation as
to volume of untitled tonnage as
of July 81, 1921, is about the same
as of June 80, 1919, after the up
turn that year had begun.
1t now looks as if the untitled
tonnage will not decline to the re-
cord of May 81, 1919, and the plus
sign will be hung out once more
in the near future.

WHEAT SUPPLY IS
 NOT YET ALARMING
Department of Agriculture Issues
 Resume of Conditions

Washington, Sept. No cause for serious alarm Is apparent as present over the prospect of the worlds wheat supply. although the situation Is not so satisfactory as was expected during the first part of the current season. according to the department of agriculture. Twenty countries, in cluding the United States which pro- duces approximately 6s per cent of the known wheat crop of the world. will harvest 2. 4s1 .430.o00 bushels this year. That is 76.2s7 900 bushels more than harvested in those countries last year.
 Drought in the greater part of the northern hemisphere was a serious menace in many countries but lfall southern wheat was not O adversly affected as at first supposed. Nearly all northern and central European countries will have larger crops than last year.
 A very unsatisfactory feature in the present international situation is the hopeless condition of the Russian crops the department experts say.

The band itself is known all over the country and its music is sought for by many cities in the cast and west. The band is at present under the leadership of Lieutenant William H. Santelmann. who has been conductor now for about 70 years.
 The local post received notice that the band is on tour and will reach the New England states soon. A proposi- ton has been made by the local post and arrangements arc being made to try to make the local affair certain. If the band is secured for this city, it is very probable that q concert will be arranged for on a Sunday afternoon or evening. if possible. in Fox's theater.

 The case of Peus Romga. charged with passing a sl bill raised to s10. was continued until Monday morning as one of the states witnesses is out of the city. Romga is alleged to have worked the raised bill game on Mrs. Priscilla Sutko.

 Schools for the teaching of manual training and the rudiments of educa- tion are now maintained, the 300 women in the prison being divided in to five groups for instruction Such schools are not yet provided for the men, but according to Director Vas queZ, they will be installed within the next few months. Meals are whole some ard sufficient.
 Shower baths have been installed and several large fountains have been placed within the patios where those who have the inclination may wash their clothes. There is a large par ade ground for both men and women and the rules of discipline are few.
 Smoking is allowed at all times and every pIiSOlieT IIldy receive SuCn dQ- ditions to his daily bill of fare as his circumstances permit. Special attend ants arc provided for the small chil- dren of women prisoners of whom there are many, the authorities also providing them with food and a place to sleep.
