By-Product Coke Oven.
The iron industry of this country
"has been adopting the by-product cok
ing process at a marvelous rate. There
are practically no by-product ctke
plants in the United States, which do
not recover ammonia, tar and light oil
(crude benzol).
In the vast majority of the plant
also surplus gas is recovered and util
ized either at the plant itself or by
distribution to outside consumers.
There are possibly two or three very
small by-product coke plants at which
tar and ammonia are not recovered for
disposal to the outside markets, but
these would certainly represent con
siderably less than 1 per cent of the
total by-product coking capacity of
the country that Is. not now equipped
with benzol-recovery plants, and the
ty-prdouct coking plants now under
construction have either contracted for
benzol-recovery equipment or indicated
a strong- probability that such provi
sion will be made. Metallurgical and

. 1 That the increased cost of living
has been more than counter-balanced
by "the increase in wages is a notable
conclusion set out by Commissioner
of Labor and Printing M. L. Shipman
! in the "Trades" chapter of his forth-
i pomintr iQic rpTvrt Thfl Increase in
VUUAtUQ fc V W f V mrm '
cost of living, he says has been slight
and there is improvement over the
showing made a year ago as to condi
tions of labor. Skilled labor is finding
employment with marked regularity
and there is every indication that un
skilled labor is coming in for much
more regular work and at better wage.
The commissioner says it is a mat
ter of regret that there cannot be
put into effect some method where
by unemployed in the towns and
cities could be gotten in touch with
farmers in need of labor. He says
that while wages paid by farmers are
not as high as are paid in town3. most
farm laborers being negroes, "but it
is likely that if farmers could secure
white laborers, they would be willing
to pay a considerably higher rate of
wage and furnish employment the
year round, then, too, there might be
put forward many arguments for the
unemployed to take up farming or
trucking on their own account.
The report shows the following
average wages for the different
trades: blacksmiths, $2.28; book
binders, $4; boiler makers", $3.89;
brick -masons, $4.16; building inspec
tors, $3.20; cabinet makers, $2; car
penters,' $2.28; conductors, $4.50;
electrical workers, $3; engravers and
jewelers, $3; locomotive firemen,
$3.24; flagmen, $2; track foremen,
$2.56; cotton mill mechanics,. $2.50;
molders. $2.75; printers, $3.66; plast

$1.42.
Millions of Tons Available Ore.
That North Carolina probably con
tains the largest deposits of chromite,
from which Is male chromium, used in
the manufacture of chrome steel of
any state in the eastern part of the
country, declares Dr. Joseph Hdye
Pratt, state geologist, in a statement
of the mineral resources of North
Carolina as relating to the location of
proposed gvernment armor plate plant
in this state. "North Carolina con
tains enormous deposits of iron ore ;
that are located in many sections of
the state," says Dr. Pratt. "While but
few of these have been operated dur
ing the past years on account of the
low price of pig iron, yet with the in.
creased price of pig iron and better
transportation facilities, I believe
many of these deposits can now be
profitably operated.
"To a depth of. one hundred feet
there are at the present time iron
ores available in North Carolina as
follows:
"Magnetite, 6.500,000 tons.
"Titanic magnetite, 1,510,000 tons.
"Hematite, 250,000 tons.
"Limonite, 725,000 tons. -
"As pig iron increases in price it
will be possible to operate additional
ores in the state and other ore re
serves will become available, such as:
"Magnetite, 8,975.000 tons.
"Titanic, 1,300,000 Otons.
"Hematite, 900,000 tons.
"Limonite, 5,000,000 tons.
"There are in the western part of
the state deposits of chromite. This
is the mineral from which chromium
is made and which is used in the man
ufacture of chrome steel. North Caro
lina probably contains the largest de
posits of this mineral, of any state in
the eastern part of the country."
Twenty-five Counties to Take Part.
It is estimated that 25 counties will
participate in special exhibits in co
operation with the state department of
agriculture- in the approaching state
fair. These in addition to numbers of
.counties that will have their own
more elaborate and extensive special
exhibits, and the individual farm ex
hibits that promise to be especially
numerous this season. Tnere is-the
keenest interest in the better babies
contest this fair and the entries are
coming in right along with indications
tfeat there will be more and better ba
bls entered- this season than ever be
fore. , The accommdations, are f4r su
perior for this feature of the fair this
time. "

North Carolina conference of; social
service met in Raleigh and,; mapped
out an elaborate tentative program for
the next session of the'-; conference,
which "will be held here 'during the
last ten days of January or the- firs t
week in February. A number of
speakers of national reputation -as
well as men of state importance will
appear on the program.'. ' The final
date of the meeting has been letf to
Dr. E.' K. Graham, president of tfe
State' University. - ' - . :
The committee discussed the estab
lishment of a state board of welfare
and charities which will be an exten
sion of the scope and the powers of
the present "board "of charities and
corrections. Mr. A. W. ; McAllister
appeared bet ore the state board of
charities for a, conference on this sub
ject. On account- of the fact" that
there was no" quorum no action was
determined upon. It is practically
certain, however, that the Legislature
will be asked to amend the present
law allowing the establishment of
such a body with widened authori
ties. .- - ';; - '

Build Silo at Fair Grounds.
An exhibit of interest to farmers
will be made at the state fair by the
Animal Industry Division of the Ex
periment Station. This division will
construct a modern silo on the grounds
and will fill it during fair week with
corn that has been planted and grown
on the grounds. In another place,
grazing crops have been planted for
hogs and these will be shown utilizing
the green crop. -

. LESSON FOR OCTOBER 15
i ' r APPEAL ,TO CAESAR. V
LESSON TEXT- Acts 25 (w.
GOLJDEN TEXT it is enough for-the
disciple that he be as his teacher, and
the servant asT his Lord. Math. 10:25. - v
Teachers ought to urge their schol
ars to ' read Chapters : 24, 25 and 26
thoroughly, and with the use of a map
locate the places mentioned. The data
of this lesson is A. D. 59, and it oc
curred at the crisis of the events which
determined the way Paul should go to
Rome, Nero being the emperor at that
time. " " : l'."..- '
I. Paul in the Prison at Caesarea
(w; 1.6). Paul was worn out, badly
in need of rest, and is given duringrthla
imprisonment much freedom. He was
accompaniefl r by Luke, his physician,
and Drobablysome'of his other friends.
For almost 20 years Paul had been liv
ing, a strenuous life, crowded lf nil of
labors that would have crushed an or
dinary man." Now for-some consider
able time he had time to thoroughly
master and assimilate the truth which
he had been preaching, the results of
which have come down to us In the
form of letters, seven of which at least
were written' during and after the
events of this lesson. His Imprison
ment also gave many of his friends
opportunity to secure his counsel and
guidance. The vlndlctiveness and
hatred of the Jews is evident by this
new plot whereby they sought the help
of Festus against Paul. The corrupt
Felix had been 1 succeeded by a more
upright man, Festus. The scheme of
these enemies of Paul and of Jesus had
already resulted In giving Paul an op
portunity to preach Jesus as the Christ
and the judge of men to persons' who
otherwise would not have been within
the scope of his influence. Through
his persecution he had reached leading
officials nnd educated men of the Ro
mans and of the Jews. Bunyan, in
Bedford jail, and Luther In Witten
berg Castle, are illustrations of the
principle that, "difficulties are the
stones out of which all God's houses
are built."
Felix, on giving up his office to his
successor, left Paul bound (Cti. 24 :27)
though he knew he ought to be re
leased, but by this vile, iniquitous act,
he gave Paul another one of his de
sired opportunities to witness for
Christ in high places. The shrewdness
of-Festus saved Paul from falling Into
the trap of the Jews, for God was guid
ing Fes-is, and at the same time
guarding Paul.
. II. Paul's Appeal to Caesar (w. 7
12). The Jews made many and griev
ous complaints, but without bringing a
single witness to prove their asser
tions. Doubtless these were the same
old charges that had been brought be
fore Felix through Tertullus two years
before, and which now as then, could
not be proved. Paul was permitted to
answer for himself, and he declared
that he had broken neither the Jew
ish nor the Roman, law.. Most of the
enemies of Christianity and of the
Bible "lay many and grievous charges
against it which they cannot prove."
In all ages the enemies of God and his
word mistake strong and confident
charges and vilifications as proofs.
Paul's life was absolutely clean, and
he could say, ."I have not sinned at all"
(v. 8 R. V.) in any "of the directions in
which he was charged. Festus, as the
newly appointed governor, desired to
do the Jews a favor; literally, desired
to gain their favor. Therefore he said
to Paul, ".Wilt thou go up to Jerusalem,
and there be judged of these things be
fore me?" This amounted to an ac
quittal of Paul on the charges that
would come under the Roman law.
There remained only such charges as
would naturally come before the San
hedrin, and the question was whether
Paul would accept an informal acquit
tal from the Roman court on condition
that he submit to a trial before his
own people on the other count. Fes-'
tus wished to throw upon Paul the re
sponsibility of refusing to go to Jeru
salem, and to avoid .displeasing the
Jews. -
v Festus got a courteous but a sting
ing and well deserved rebuke from his
prisoner. Paul was perfectly willing
to take any punishment he deserved,
even unto death, but, having a clear
conscience, he had no fear of Festus
or. any man. His appeal to Caesar
was most unexpected. It confused
Festus and bafHed the Jews. The Lord's
own words on his midnight ' visit to
Paul in prison are here suggested (23:
11). .: ,
Festus could make but one decision,
"Unto Caesar thou shalt go." Paul's
sincere and open character was the
means of his safety and power.
HI. Paul and Adrlppa (w. 13-22).
Agrippa was the king of the northern
part of Palestine, a Jew and. trained
in religious ceremonies, but one who
never mixed politics with religion,
wearing his Judaism as a garment.
