Birmingham Steel and Iron ReasSerting Their Prestige Ln the Far AGeLd Markets Plant Resumption and Broadening of Trade Territory Marked Factors of Industrial Trend-Large Pipe

continuous and regular customer ot l the Tennessee company that visits l of the officials of the Japanese rail ways are d matter of course. Bir- mingham has been shipping on a re- cent order of IA, 1000 tons of rails for Japan and expects more orders. Pipe Orders
 High pressure pipe shops have be- | sun enjoyment of that harvest which seems Imminent. The National Cast i has just about completed an order i for 1000 tons for Port Arthur, Tex, and has booked an order for 1900 tons for St Paul. The United States l Cast has booked an order for 2,000 | tons for Portland, Ore. The Amer ican Cast has taken orders for 1 1000 tons for Milwaukee and another Wis consin city.
 Vessel is now putting in at Mo bile to take another 5000 tons of pipe to the Pacific coast. Honolulu is about to order 5000 tons and Seattle 9,OOO tons. Birmingham cN- poets to get in on all that business.
 Both American and National com panies are at high point of produo- tion.
 Bessemer reports that they are lay ing in stock of raw material at couple of blast furnaces down there. That does not mean immediate re- sumption, but it does point to prepar- alton for resumption in the not dis tant future.
 Recognizes the Warrior
 District is interested in the pro- posal of the Mobile and Ohio railroad to declare joint rates with the War rior barge line on goods shipped from St. Louis to Mobile, the rates to ap- ply via port of Tuscaloosa, where the Mobile and Ohio touches on it's line from Columbus, Miss, to Montgon- cry.
 This would be good for the Mobile and Ohio. because the lower rates on the Warrior would give a lower through rate that might enable the Mobile and Ohio to get business for Mobile that now goes to New Orleans via the Mississippi river, It would benefit the barge line by making of it a trunk line enjoying through joint rates wi In railroads, the same as othere railroads do. The barge lines are now making a fight before the interstate commerce commission for the very recognition which the Mo bile and Ohio has volunteered to ex- tend. Conferences for establishment of the joint rates with the Mobile and Ohio are now being held.
 City and County Line Up
 Local merchants and manufacturers regard the action of the county and city in instructing their purchasing agents to join the purchasing agents association as a distinct gain of pres tige in the buy at home campaign. In association with the purchasing agents of private corporations the city and county purchasing agents will. get the benefit of the experience of these expert buyers and will be lined up with them in the plan to patronize home merchants and manu- lecturers and to bring outside firms to the city.
 Feeling of Buoynncy
 General feeling in industrial cir cles at end of the week was the most buoyant of that of many months.

DUCKERS ONLY MEET
TOLERABLE SUCCESS
Weather Was Unfavofable For GDod
Shooting Yesterday As The Ducks
GJ Did Not Come Inland.

az The duckers were out in full force
yesterday but most of them did not
meet with much success on accou-
of the calmness of the day. There
are, it is said by those who are thor
oughly familiar with the ways of the
ducks, two reasons why yesterday
was not an ideal day for ducking:-
first, the ducks prefer to feed upon
the natural food which they get out
in the bay and upon the natural feed
ing grounds: second, when the
weather is calm their very alert
sense of hearing and sight is active
and they are much more easily feared
off than during rough weather
So far as can be learned former
Governor Harrington and his party
were the most successful of any of
the hundreds out yesterday, they
getting sixty-four ducks, or on an
average of eight for each member of
the party.

In loving remembrance of our father,
Samuel l.. Johnson who died one year
ago today, November 2, 1922.
At the bedside of our dear father,
Night by night and day by day;
We watched his loving hands grow
thinner
And saw him slowly pass away.
We tried so hard to save him,
But God willed that he should go;
So we yielded to the parting,
Tho it filled our hearts with woe.
Our father now is sleeping,
No care is on his brow;
How can we help from weeping,
Because we have no father know.
