Pittsburg, Pa. Mines and furnaces
and mills in the Pittsburg district and
surrounding country are working to
far greater capacity than they did at
the beginning of 1909. It looks as if
by July 1 a majority of the larger op
erations will be working to full ca
pacity, which a number of companies
are now doing. With January 1, 1909,
the working forces of this district
were engaged at about 35 per cent, of
capacity. With June 1 . the working
will be operating about 85 per cent,
and by July 1 there should be between
90 and 100 per cent. The greatest in
dustrial increase has taken place in
the steel mills. These were barely
working to keep the rust off the ma
chinery with the beginning of the
year. Now every department except
the rail mills are working almost to
capacity. The tub and pipe indus
try, which started this year with few
orders and only operating three to
four days a week, is now working full
time. The two largest steel car plants
ia the country, located near here, were
closed absolutely at the beginning of
the year with none but the watchmen
about the plants.
Terre Haute. Ind. The Vandaba
Mining Company is in trouble with
the officials of the United Mine Work
ers over the demand by the men that
they be permitted to remove the top
coal at mine No. 65, east of the city.
When the company ordered that coal
be left at the top, the mine committee
ordered the men to quit work, and the
superintendent in turn discharged the
committee. The company contends
that the coal must be left as a sup
port to the roof of the mine; that a
state- mine inspector has served no
tice that it must not be removed. The
miners say they have a right to mine
all the coal of the vein, and if any is
left they are entitled to extra pay.
The company may ask the court for
an injunction to restrain the miners
officials from stopping men from
working.
Berlin. Germany. A most remark
able clause has been added to the
German mines bill at the instigation
of Emperor William. It is a clause
of a most socialistic character, since
it gives to labor organisations the
right of supervision over the arrange
ments made for their safety in the
pits. Of course, this right is limited
to the men employed in the mines
concerned, and to their organizations.
and does not extend to any outside la
bor unions or professional agitators.
Youngsstown. O. Employes of the
Republic Iron and Steel Company re
ceived notice that a readjustment of
wages will be made June 1. While the

given, it is believed the men will be

prior to the t?n per cent, reduction
of April 1. About 4.000 men are af
fected locally. It is thought here the
readjustment will be general in the
Republic plants.

or in obtaining concessions from their
employers. In such matters, as child
labor, old age pensions, woman's place
in the state and in industry, in educa
tional questions and in temperance-,
the English workers in particular
have a group of leaders who have no
superiors in any walk of life. They
are the authorities on these subjects.
London. Eng. The Amalgamated
Society of Toolmakers, one of the
youngest of the unions started in the
British engineering trades, has now

gineers.

Pittsburg. Pa. The United States

nouncement of an increase in wages,

benefit to the general public Under
selling and favoring of customers
will be things of the past in Memphis,
according to the plans of the organi
zation. Indianapolis, Ind. The Cigar
makers International, pioneers in
many union matters, has solved a
question in a novel way. The cigar
makers have a graduated death bene
fit, ranging from $50 for new mem
bers to $550 for a member whose card
has been clear for 15 years. Realizing
that many old members become in
capacitated, the plan has been evolved
to allow such as are unable to work,
who have held continuous membership
for a period of 15 years, or more, to
draw the death benefit, less $50. which
is reserved for actual funeral ex
penses. Boston. A Hebrew local of the

SECRET OF GOOD PIE CRUST.
Given the Right Ingredients, the Rest
Depends on Proper Use of the
Rolling Pin. -
The second secret of good pie crust
lies in the proper use of the rolling
pin. Always work from you. not that
there is any superstition about it. but
-because there will be less danger of
breaking open the thin sections that
Inclose the air. Do not roll, but lift
the rolling pin and drop it in a vigor
ous patting motion, beginning on the
part next to the worker and going for
ward and si de wise to keep the dough
in an oblong shape. As soon as the
dough is one-quarter of an inch thick
fold it lengthwise with one-third un
der and one-third over the middle
third. Turn half way round and fold
in thirds in the same way. Now pat
ovt thin again. Fold and pat out form
five to seven times to make paste very
light, stopping to chill it if it grows
in the least bit soft and greasy. Each
folding makes numerous layers that
inclose air. After the last patting out
roll the paste np like a jelly roll, cut
a thin slice from the end and pat out
round to fit a plate, handling as little
as possible. Plan to have as few trim
mings as possible and keep them sep
arate, or at least never use them for
top crusts. The old saying that it is
a poor pie that will not grease its own
plate is entirely true, for there is no
need of preparing a plate for its crust.
