Bamboo is one Of the most interesting
kind. Of wood in the World Don d. Pat
,erson. Of the advertising department OF
The School Of Journalism thinks. There
Is scarcely any other substance that IS
used for 80 many things
1T i the most interesting tree or veg
etabIe in all the Far Eas; In fact there
i. not a thing in caring for the body OF
the Chine-e that bamboo cznno, fulfill,
Mr.. Patterson declares
Why. ibey build their houses with
bamboo a. the foundation on which they
PUT the mud. They make their wheel
bzrro~s from II. their rickshaws. their
sedan chairs their junk poles. their car
yins poles. their fishing poles their fish
irsps. and even their fish nets
Raincosis are woven from the bamboo
fiber s;Tips as is practically all Of the
clothing Of the Chinese coolie.
1t makes 4 really delicious food
Mr. Patterson said 1T grows up much
Ike asparagus, about foot high. and IS
hen cut for table use. These are called
bamboo sprouts. Another popular dish
j. made from the piih on the inside Of
the wood as 2 filler for soup. IL is put
in much like noodles for hzvoring. and
: very good"
Americans have experimental with the
adaptation Of bamboo to this climate, and
have been successful in producing ii in
California. Only one variety, however, Is
edible.
Much bamboo is used for furniture,
also. according TO sir Patterson and al
iraciive tables and baskets Of every va
riay and shape are made Of bamboo.
Every Chinese baby has his firS, rock
ing in bamboo cradle. and most Chi
nese children are wheeled in a bamboo
ziddy cart. This cart Is made ike box.

Then above it Is a tray. much like
high-chsir table. and extended from it Is
another tray. or box in which parcels may
be carried. while the baby is being
sheeled.
Many Chinese musical instruments are
made Of bamboo. The Chinese even use
bamboo for piping the water to their IL
ngziion bitches.

KNIGHT METAL co. VETERAN DEALERS
 IN OLD MATERIAL

Knight Iron and Metal company with yards two blocks long under the Weatherly viaduct on First avenue report a brisk market in old material which they have handled in Birming ham during the past seven years. The market Is particularly good as to cast iron scrap, which has reached a base of $15 on the yards.
 This firm is a quarter of a century old. The Birmingham branch Is an off-shoot of J. F. Knight & Son of Columbus, Ga. who have been in the business for 25 years. The Birming ham branch was opened up because this is not only good center for se- curing old iron and steel, but also for sale to foundries and steel mills.
 The local firm has done a business of about 1000 tons here and 10000 tons in Columbus this year, and ex- poets to round 1t out with one of 30,000 to 10000 tons.
 We have had all we could handle this year" said a member of the firm, "The market has been low, of course. but that has been an incident on which business men must count
 The Knight company has clients throughout the district and does a large business in Atlanta and other industrial centers.

Birmingham district steel produc- tion is greater than in It's history.
 All steel plants are at or near ca pacity with the Tennessee Coal. Iron and Railroad company making num- bers of new high records in May.
 Some of the new records made by the T. c. 1. in May follow:
 Open hearth furnaces at Ens- ley produced 99,O05 tons compared with n previous high of 9G,31S tons in March of this year.
 Alice furnace produced 1AO51 tons of pig iron compared with previous high of 13,152 tons made in May, 1920.
 produced 16,034 tons compared with I5.e54 tons in April of this year.
 EdEcwater coal mines pro- duced D8,97O tons of coal com pared with 91,221 tons in March, 1917.
 Bayview mines produced 46,704 tons of coal compared with 46,31O tons in March, 1921.
 Vann's quarry produced 11,525 tons of doIomitc compared with l1,OS0 In March, lDl5.
 Benxol plant produced 444.O44 gallons of benzoI compared with 3S7 ,D20 in April, 1918.
 At Full Tilt
 Operations of the Tennessee com. pany remain at the same busy pace namely. double turn at Bessemer plate, guide and bar mills, double turn at Fairfield structural and tie- plate mills and double turn in raj mill with weekly production of 5000 tons. Chickasaw Car works is busy on its large orders for new stee, freight cars and repair old ones Twenty blast furnaces are now ir operation compared with 5 this time last year and January 1. Sloss- Sheffield has resumed its dominant position in the foundry iron market by operating five furnaces, two at North Birmingham and one at Flor ence resuming during May.
 LuII in Iron
 Iron market is at s1s.5o for all but one maker. whose base is still SIS but without soliciting business. A few sales have been made at $19 The weeks business was small, there being 1ull following tremendous buying for two months.
 Pipe Very Strong
 ilsn pressure market was never stronger. There was a rush to place business last week to get ahead of the net base of $37. One maker booked 1,500 tons the after- noon of May 31 over long distance. One maker turned down 1000 tons last week on account of sold-up capacity. U. S. cast has secured the 1000 tons for government berracks at Honululu and 2.000 tons for Paris Texas. A half dozen cargoes left Mobile for the Pacific coast with pressure and sanitary pipe as well as pig iron and wire mills drawing last month and more loading. Cuba has also taken pipe and wire mill products.
 Sanitary pipe Is about as strong as pressure pipe with plants at capacity and the new base of 1855 applying on new business when late corners are

 Busy Steel Plants
 Both Helena and Woodlawn mills of the Connors Steel are operating. The Orient and South America lead in demand for exports of hoop and band products.
 Gulf States Steel put on a% third open hearth furnace. This and the wire drawing mill of the American Steel and Wire have about all they can handle conveniently.
 Generally speaking, deliveries of all steel products are belated.
 Coal Has Picked Up
 The coal market has picked l,p considerably in the past few weekA Production has risen from 275,000 tons to 325,000 tons week. The in crease is principally from railroads with western end, sucn as Missouri Pacific and Mobile and Ohio.
 Coke is in demand to every ton of product and is strong at s5.50. Dealers are conservative. They could just as well charge s6 on spot busi- ness and get it.
 Pitch Coke at $8 Barrett pitch coke is selling at ss ton. It has established itself in all foundry centers and the daily pro ductlon of around 150 tons is ab- sorbed as manufactured Tn the bee- hive ovens of the Republic company. l~ On Full Turn
 Birmingham Stove and Range is on a six-day turn and shipping cars of stoves and ranges in the southeast. Unit Stove and Furnace company has gone on six-day turn and Is ship ping cars of hot air furnaces to the middle west. Radiator works con- tinues at 100 per cent.
 New Plant Operations
 Virginia Bridge and Iron has begun operations in it's Birmingham plant and will add considerably to the fab ricating steel business of Bir- mingham.
 Vulcan Rivet worke begins opera tion of new spike department shortly. Ingalls, Iron works is operating on a large scale with business in struc- tural steel scattered throughout the southeast.
 Record Bank CIearings
 Pronounced feature of May reports was that of bank clearings. The May record of SSS,S17.o00 broke all records for that month and all records except that of last December, to which il made a near approach.

Any shape desired Is manufactured. The output is reinforced with steel and the product Is as hard and durable as stone, also having the visual effect of stone.
 Another product Is heavy posts for gates. These are made of any size desired, and are also of lasting qual- ities, due 60 the thorough hardening process to which they are subjected.
 Cement lends itself to any form de- sired, hence there Is almost no kind of ornamental purpose which 1t will not serve as we'll as the useful. The Cement Products company is making more and more profert of this dual quality of cement manipulation.
