I Editor James M. Swank says: The
I production of pig iron In 18S5 was the
largest In the history of the country,
amounting to ,44.ao gross tons
against 8.857.3S8 tons In 1894. 7.11.501' in
ls3 and tf.157.OO0 In 1s2. The produc
tion III was nearly 42 per cent,
greater than in 1804. The Pennsylvania
output was 49.78 per cent, of the totul.
Allegheny county produced 2,0M.G85
tons, which wus 690.7H8 tons more thun
the production of Ohio, double that of
Illinois and two and one-half times
that of Alabuniu. The production of
Bessemer pig wus f,t2a,6 tons,
against 3.808. f,(i7 In 1894. The furnaces
In blast fell from T2i June :10. 1S;I, to H'S
December 21. 1894. Tney increased to
242 December 31, 1S9.1, but since Janu
ary 1 there has been a decrease.
Stocks of pig Iron amounted Junuury
184, to 882.088 tons, fulling in June to

8tt8. fulling III June, 18!. to-49,290 and
rising again at he end of 1895 to 444.
232 tons. The large consumption is In

ut the close of the year wus only 4.7 per
cent, of this year's production.

POOR POLICY
Wc have always considered it, without regard to ethics, poor
business policy to depart from the liucs ot strictest truth in the
statements contained in our advertisements. There are concerns
who think it g-jod business to wildly exaggerate in their ads, as
suming that the majority or the people like to be humbugged. We
tninu, nowever, like the woman who killed the goose that laid tne
golden egg.
We Are in Business for " Keeps."
Very often wc have rare bargains for our customers. Then is the ttmt
when wc want what we say to be implicitly believed, and we never intend t
advertise a single article or group of articles or a special sale of any kind
without a thorough foundation, in fact, when you see it in an "Economy"
ad it's so.
