FIANCE 10 TRADE REVIEW
STEEL TRADE AT STANDSTILL
Iron Is Weaker and Blast Fur
nace Activity Has Caused an
Over Production.
Dun & Co's. “Weekly .Review - of
Trade” says: Business continues to
move in most conservative channels,
purchases being restricted to im-
mediate requirements and weather
conditions dominating . the, situation
to an unusual extent. At many points
there has been little spring trade
and the transition from winter to sum-
mer will be accomplished with scarce-
ly any intermediate season. Consid-
ering this adverse factor, the. cur-
rent volume of business is remarkably
satisfactory..
also deferred to a late date. Much
structural work is projected, however,
and at some favored points last’ year’s
record promises to be surpassed.
As a rule manufacturing plants are
not- working at full capacity, idle ma-
chinery being most extensive in tex-
tile industries. Floods and storms
have interrupted traffic, yet: railway
earnings thus far reported for ‘April
Pig
are only 5.5 per cent -smaller than last |
year. Iron and steel conditions are
still’ devoid of any definite canipaign.’
In several departments the week-has
brought slightly increased ' ‘activity,
notably in merghant steel, .pipe .and
structural - shapes, but in: many
branches there is hesitation. The
nearer fundamental - lines. are. ap*
proached the less -strength. is.seem.
Pig iron is "also weaker at Pittsburg
and the rapid increase»in‘ hlggl«fur-
nace activity hase lifted the-capacity
above the market's: requirements.
Unless contracts for the third :quarter
are soon placed on a liberal Seale it is
probable that output will be checked.
Wire, mills have maintained activity,
but some: tin plate works are inter-
rupted by disputes regarding details
of the wage reduction® aon
Fuel markets send conflicting re-
ports, anthracite coal being freely
sought to take advantage of the spring
discounts, but soft coal and coke are;
abundant and cheap, because of idle-
ness at many factories. Conditions
are less satisfactory in ‘the dry goods
trade than at any previous time this
season. Activity and strength is re-
ported in the Western hide markets,
sales of over 100,000 being reported on
Thursday, when the leading interest
resumed purchasing. Failures this
week numbered 202 in the United
States, against 203 last year, and 16 in
Canada, compared with 13 a year
ago.

Catarrh of one organ is exactly the same

discases have no idea that their trouble is
due to catarrh. The majority of the peo-
ple think that catarrh is a disease con-
fined to the head alone.
This is not true. Catarrh is liable to at-
tack any organ of the ‘body; throat, bron-
chial tubes, lungs, stomach, kidneys and
especially the pelvic organs.
Many a woman has made this discovery
after a long siege of useless treatment.
She has made the discovery that her dis-
ease is catarrh, and that Peruna can be re-
lied upon to cure catarrh wherever iocated.
If you do not derive prompt and satis-
factory results from the use of Peruna,
write at once to Dr. Hartman, giving a
full statement of your case, and he will be
pleased to give you his valuable advice

ONE DOLLAR WHEAT.
YWestorn Canada’s Wheat Fields Produce
It — Magnificent Yields — Free Grants
of Land to Settlers. 2
The returns of the Interior Dep ~t-
ment show that the movement of
American farmers northward to Can-
ada is each month affecting larger
areas of the United States. Time was,
says the Winnipeg Free Press, when
the Dakotas, Minnesota and Iowa fur-
nished the Dominion with the main
bulk of its American contingent. Last
vear, however, forty-four States and
districts were represented in the offi-
cial statement as to the former resi-
dence of Americans who had home-
steaded in Canada. The Dakotas still
head the list, with 4000 entries, Minne-
sota being a close second with 3887,
but with the exception of Alabama and
Mississippi and Delasvare every State
in the Union supplied settlers who, in
order to secure farms in the fertile
prairie country of Canada, became citi-
zens of, and took the oath of allegiance
to, the Dominion. Last year no less
than 11,841 Americans entered for
homestead lands in Canada.
From the Gulf to the boundary, and
from ocean to ocean, the trek to the
Dominion goes on. Not only the wheat
growers of the Central Mississippi Val-
ley, but the ranchers of Texas and
New Mexico, and the cultivators of the
comparatively virgin soil of Oklahoma
are pouring towards the productive
vacant lands of the Canadian Northk-
west. It is no tentative, half-hearted
departure for an alien country that is
manifested in this exodus; it has Dbe-
come almost a rush to secure posses-
sion of land which it is feared, by
those imperfectly acquainted with the
vast area of Canada’s vacant lands,
may all be acquired before they ar-
rive. There is no element of specula-
tion or experiment in the migration.
The settlers have full information re-
specting {hie soil, wealth, the farming
methods, the laws, taxation and sys-
which they are moving, and they real-
Canada are in every respect better and
creater than those they have enjoyed
in the land they are leaving.

most desirable settlers obtainable for
