Steel, Lumber, POUer
ShOU Business Gain.

The usual January pickup in business
over December was registered this year
in the steel, lumber and electric power
industries and some consumer goods.
The department of commerce in its
monthly business review said Saturday
there had been a moderate increase
in business since the turn of the year
but the activity continued to follow
a seasonal pattern. The coal and auto
mobile industries it added, have retained
recent gains and activity in the textile
industry continued at relatively high
rate.
Although irregularity developed in
steel production schedules, the general
trend of activity continued upward to
an estimated 10 per cent of ingot cap
acity in the past week. Slight ex-
pansidn IN miscellaneous buying,
coupled with buying of line pipe and
for agricultural implements offset de-
creases in demand from automobile pro-
ducers owing to labor difficulties. The
price situation remained uncertain be-
cause of eaSineSs in sheet quotations.
Moderate improvement in demand for
pig iron occurred in some districts at
unchanged prices.

Laws are not the cure for the pre-
vention of automobile accidents. Laws
are made to regulate traffic that Is
daily using our highways. Investigation
discloses that very small percentage
of the fatal automobile accidents in the
United States is chargeable to criminally
reckless drivers. BY far the greater
number of accidents resulted from the
common faults Of the average motorist.
II people would drive motor vehicles
according to the existing traffic regula-
lions, most of the accidents would be
eliminated.
An arteriaI sign that reads STOP"
means Just what it reads. It does not
mean TO slow up, to sneak across, but It
means to bring the car to dead stop
before proceeding.
It takes courage to know and recog-
nize your own driving mistakes It Is
commendable on your part TO acknow-
lsdese them and correct them

WHAT TO PLANT

Adaptability should be considered first
in selecting the crops and varieties for
the garden This can readily be de-
termined by noting the varieties recon-
mended by local seed companies, con-
sulting the list recommended annually
by the State Horticultural Society, and
asking neighbors what has given them
the best results. BY checking one
against the other, a very judicious
selection can be made.
The likes and dislikes of the family
should be considered, but not to the
exclusion of variety. A large number Of
different crops will do much toward
keeping the family healthy, making the
menu appetizing, and lessening the
cooks drudgery.
In the farm garden, large number
of different crops should be grown.
Enough of the vegetables that can be
canned and stored should be produced
TO furnish most of the winter supply
for the family. The large garden can
! be made to produce most of the vege-
tables needed by the family throughout
the year.
In the small garden, bulk crops and
crops which require wide spacing should
be eliminated. Vine crops and potatoes
require lot of space and can usually
be bought. at the proper time, to better
advantage than they could be grown in
this type Of garden.
Include such crops as lettuce, parsley
ehives, spinach, chard, peas, beans and
radishes. These are quick growing, re-
quire little space, and adapt themselves
to intensive culture. The tomato
should be grown and also beets, carrots
and onions for immediate use. A few
plants Of rhubarb, asparagus, horss
radish, and the herbs take up Httls
room
| Cauliflower, celery and head lettucs
are not recommended for general us,
in the home garden, due to dificultie:
| encountered in their culture. How.
ever, the experienced gardener may b
able TO grow them successfully.

For his service in the World War Mr.
Hurley received the Distinguished Serv-
ice Medal of his own country, the deco
ration being conferred by Gen. Per-
shing, for exceptionally meritorious
and distinguished service in connection

of the Legion of Honor of France and
grand officer of the crown of Italy.

Allies in the World War
Without detracting in the least from
that great soldier, Gen. Pershing, and
his gallant men in the field" wrote
Mr.. Hurley, Il am convinced that the
country never has realized to what
extent the war was won at hcme by
President Wilson, Secretary Baker, Gen.
March, the Shipping Board and the
Fleet Corporation by taking the most
desperate chances conceivable"
Describing his procedure in supplying
ships as extremely reckless if followed
IN time of peace, he admitted that in
obeying President Wilson's admonition,
Hurley, we must go the limit" he pro-
ceeded to make an estimate for ships
which, as a practical manufacturer, he
would never dare submit to a board of
directors.

That 1t did not continue for another
year was due to the fact that Wood

psychological moment sent over the
soldiers who turned the tide in favor
Of the Allies case"
In his book Mr. Hurley gave figures
showing that 1t cost So, 900 900 to teach
350,0 men and 100 new managements
how to build ships. One of the most
difficult tasks he discovered was to find
American officers and crews for the
ships.
During the peace conference Mr..
Hurley was called to Paris to attend a
meeting of the War Council and was
appointed member of the Conferences
Committee on International Labor Leg
islation In that capacity he submitted
American labor's peace ideas to the
committee. He also arranged for the
transportation of the American troops
