KNOWING THE WEATHER

There is cafeteria in the basement of the high
school in Davenport Iowa, whose patronage varies
greatly with the weather On dry days nearly all OF
the students go home for their lunch but on wet days
they want lunch at the school But the IS al
ways ready for them. She neither swanped on bad
days nor left with food her hands on good days
Why? She telephones to the weather bureau every
morning to learn what kind Of weather there is going
to be.
Thousands of restaurant keepers all the
United States might profit by similar attention to the
weather.
There is a large macaroni and cracker factory in
Davenport which applies the same principle to Its bus,
mess. 1t has made arrangements with the local
weather station to receive the latest forecasts every
morning and knows accordingly whether to bake that
day crackers ginger snaps and other things whose sue
cess depends on the degree of humidity in the air.
Many another manufacturer might find that worth
while Many housewife, too for that matter; for
weather conditions have great deal to do with the
proper making and keeping of food and with house
work in general.
Agriculture navigation and land travel, and any
kind of activity keeping people much out Of doors are
of course extremely dependent on the weather Most
people nowadays weather-bind, but they can rem
edy that defect by getting weather reports regularly by
newspaper radio special service, and needing them

SLOW AMERICANS

Foreign statesmen and foreign capitalists fire.
quenty put Americans shame by their quicker recog
milton of profitable enterprise and their quicker action
to set them going.
The British Columbia government is now giving
active encouragement the production Of pig iron IN
that province The resolution Of the legislature to THIS
effect carried unanimously indicating undivided
support for the development of great steel industry
there. In statement introducing the government bill,
the minister of mines said:
Experiments have been in progress for some time
at the Northwest experiment station of the United
States bureau of mines at Seattle which have direct
bearing problem in the matter Of exploiting the
magnesite of this province. These experiments
have been going for years, and we have been
keeping close touch with their progress The report IS
most encouraging 1t indicates that furnace has been
designed capable of producing from magneslte iron
sponge iron readily convertible into pig iron at
cost per ton considerably below the local market
quotations pig iron assured that this process
has been found to be economically practicable.
The United States Bureau of Mines has been MAX
ing the experiments. Our Northwest has the same
physical and geographical advantages for the location
of steel plants and the production of this iron product
that British Columbia has. Yet the first important
step toward the establishment of great steel indus
try in that region is taken by foreign power The
American capitalists and state authorities who may
some day be interested are indifferent at present.
