If she was escorted home by p. m.
Then Slatko shows the girl of to-

following a dance. The comparisons
are made in the spirit of fun. Com
parsons are also made in music and
dance.
A modern jazz band closes the act
and brings the comparisons to a close.
Dawson, Lanigan and Covert offer
some good soft shoe dancing. Thorn
ton Flynn and Dena Caryl offer a
musical act which is not new to vaude-
Vile both in idea and treatment. The
man has a good voice.
Arthur Angel and Violet Fuller go
in for eccentric nonsense and close
with a burlesque on a Bowery dance.
Good for some laughs Fuller appears
in an old makeup. Stanley Gallini

INCREASE IN ORE SHIPMENTS
EXPECTED THIS YEAR
Ore Tonnage in 1923 Will Be Bigger
Than Last Year, According to
Cleveland Report.

Cleveland, O.-That the ore trade
will furnish employment for more
tonnage in 1928 than it did last year
Is certain, and the general opinion is
that shipments viii show an increase
of at least 100000 tons. Accord
ing to estimates the movement will
be from 100000 to 100000
tons and some men in the trade are
quite confident that the top figure
will be reached. In 1922 the mines
in the Lake Superior district sent
forward 42,613,184 tons.
There has been quite an increase
in the number of stacks in blast since
November / and at the rate the
plants are operating a big cut will be
made in stocks at the lake front and
in furnace yards by the opening of
The shipping season. 1t is figured
the furnaces consumed about 5,000,-
eco tons of ore last month
The movement from the lake front
to the furnaces has been fair since
the close of navigation and the docks
win be in better shape when the filsi
cargoes arrive than they were last
season. Shipments to the furnaces
last month were 767, 56S tons. The
docks on February / were holding
8,466,972 tons and on April ! last
year stocks were 7,635,69 tons. A
small lot of dock ore was sold last
week but it is not expected much
will be done in the way of booking
orders for ore for next seasons de-
livery until late in March The cost
of production has been marked mp
and an advance in prices is looked
for. A general cut of so cents a ton
was made last season.
The indications are that more
changes will be made in the lineup
of the ore carrying fleet before the
opening of the season. There are
Eumter of deals on and the sale of
two steel steamers will probably be
announced soon. If the boats change
hands they will be withdrawn from
the ore trade. Other freighters are
being figured on and if all the deals
are worked out about half dozen
steamers viii change hands
Some figuring for new ships is Re
ing done, but the boats will not cone
out until late next season if the order
is placed. The freight market Is
very quiet and it is not likely there
will be much change the next few
weeks as many of the vessel men ard
shippers are in Florida and Califor-
MIA.

losis. a large sum for the state fair,
and other funds for the administra-
ton Of various laws affecting farm
crs.
The state department of markets,
with an appropriation of $4,000
annually is devoting all Of its activi-
Ties to a study of farm problems and
to the promotion OF projects for the
betterment of agriculture. Cooper
alive marketing is receiving particu-
lar attention from this department
County fairs held in the n coun-
ties of Wisconsin received aid from
che state last year amounting to
S271,000. The amount of money
expended on these local fairs has in
creased greatly in the last few years,
and is to receive particular attention
from the present legislature.
An appropriation of $4,000 is
made by the state for maintenance
of county agents, with $4,000 for
aid to small agricultural societies,
$4,000 for aid to county agncultur-
al schools, $4,000 for branch agri-
cultural stations, $4,000 for aid to
the state board of vocational educa-
ton and $4,000 for aid to high
schools offering agricultural train
ing
The present legislature is being
asked to increase the appropriation
TO the department Of agriculture in
order to give it 10000 annually
for iademnities arising from eradica
ton of bovine tuberculosis This
would increase the expenditure for
agricultural purposes over $500, 900
annually.
Agricultural education at the Uni
versity of Wisconsin amounting to
approximately 100000 annually is
an indirect aid to Wisconsin agricul-
ture, while the dairy and food de-
partment appropriation likewise in
directly serves the farmer

posals before it TO exempt homestead
improvements from taxation for
period Of five years, to amend the
constitution IN order to ena! le the
state to borrow money 70 finance a

ures If special benefit to farmers.
These expenditures and pleas for
aiding agriculture are said to show
that Wisconsin is doing much more
than most states to promote the
farming industry
