The directors of Mountain Ash
Cemetery Association have set out a
hedge of Arbor Vitae plants on tin
north and west sides of the ceme
tery. The hedge is set about two
feet inside of the fence line which it
is expected to reach when the plants
attain their full growth and the fence
removed. The plants, GOO in num
ber, came from Wisconson and art
said to be very hardy and well
adapted to this climate.
This work, together with other im
provemcnts, has made considerable
expense and the Uircctors would ap
preciate it if subscribers of stock
who have not already done so would
send in their subscriptions as soon
as possible.

| Our townsman, Mr. William W.
: Loch, who responded to the first
! call for volunteers at the outset of
, the Civil War, has just received one
|of the medals granted by the State
of New Jersey to first defenders.
It is a handsome medal about two
inches in diameter made of gun
1 metal taken from captured cannon,
jOn the front side of the medal ap
pears the seal of the State of New
Jersey and the words "A tirst de
fender, 1801." On the reverse side
is the following: "The State of New
Jersey to William W. Loeb, a mem
' ber of the New Jersey Brigade,
militia. For prompt and loyal ser
| vice. 1861.
i It is a beautiful medal and Mr,
j Loeb is certainly to be congratula
ted. It is needless to say that the
' recipient prizes it very highly.
Clarence M. H«*ss, formerly ol
Norduiont and this place, has gone
to Hot Springs, Arkansas, to receive
treatment hoping of regain his
voice. While employed in Philadel.
phia about four years ago he
an attack of typhoid fever,and since
that time has not been able to speak
above a whisper.
Fifteen billions of dollars repre
sent the value of the annual produc
tion of manufactures in the United
States. After careful estimates were
made by experts, Colonel John M.
Carson chief of the Bureau of manu
factures, was able to make this
statement in the annual report of
the operations of his bureau made
public. November 24th, The figure
do not rep >rt finished products,
irely, but im:l6de pr tlt *ts in vari
ous stages ot progress.
Last year the aggreg ite v.ilue of
domestic merhcandise exported wa.»
$1,854000,000. an increase of nearly
$130,000,000 over the preceding
jear. In this classification "manu
factures ready for consumption" are
credited with $480,000,000 and these
figures are generally accepted as the
extent of the exports of manufac
tures.
The report of the bureau, however
groups this classification with thoso
of 'foodstuffs partly or wholly manu
factured" and "manufactures for
further use in manufacturing," the]
aggregate exports of which last year
were $<i0<»,000,000 and this amount, J
added to "manufactures ready
lor consumption" ,makes the aggre
gate value of manufactures exported
in the year ended June 30,11,080,000,
000 or more than 58 per cent of the
entire exports for that year.
Special significance is attached to
the increase of nearly #20,000,000 in
the exports of completed mafiu
factures, in view of the fact that the
exports of cotton cloths declined
more than #21,000,000, this loss be
ing entirely in the cotton trade with
china. The popular feeling aroused
in the country growing out of alleg
•tl outrages against Chinese resi
dents in the I'nited States is asssgn
ed as a cause for this decline.
The cottonseed product exports for]
the year were upwards of $10,500,
000, an increase of*», 500,000 over
1900.
Demand made bv busiuess men
for the extention ol the parcels po-t
to foreign countries is discusseb. It
claimed that this extension would
(►pen markets now closed to Amer
ican business men.for lack of trans
portation facilities, but which are
open to their competitors who have
advantages of the parcels po*t sys
tem.
The Frst National Bank of Canton
l*a., is to double its capital, thus in
creasing it from $50,000 to SIOO,OOO,
and paying to its present stockhold
ers a cash dividend of 50 per cent out
of its earnings. This is one of the
most prosperous institutions of its
kind in the state. Daniel I lines has
been president of the bank for nearly
a quarter of a century.
