The superintendent warns folks to be careful in regard to those who sneeze and cough and spit on the floors and sidewalks. He also | advises not to economize on coal by | keeping the windows closed, as germs loathe fresh air and sunshine. The report follows | With the return of cold weather we { may expect an increase in diseases of the nose, throat and lungs, practically all of thesc diseases are conveyed through the sputum and are spoken of as sputum born disence All of those ill with “colds,” sore throat, bronchitis, pneumonia, etc., have the germs which cause these dis- cases in their nose and throat and these germs are thrown out in tiny particles of sputum with each cough and snceze, in (he open air these par- ticles of sputum are blown by the winds and air currents and spread over such a large area that the chances of any one person ihhaling cnough of them to cause disease i rather small, these tiny particles of germ laden sputum may float in the air of rooms, however, for many feet and may infect any person who in- hales them, this is the reason that poor ventilation and overcrowding are so important in the spread of dis- ease as one rerson may infect a whole room full of people Cold weather means closed windows and doors and congregating of the family and friends in the house in- stead of in the open air It is not only those who are actually ill can spread these diseases but many in perfect health also have these dis- case germs in their nose and throat and are even more dangerous because they are not suspected. Some of those who were ill with influenze during the epidemic still have the germs in thelr nose and throat and will spread this disease as soon as cold weather drives the people into their homes #ad poor ventilation and crowding are again in vogue.

'PIG IRON AND STEEL MARKETS The Iron Age says Although it As probable that con- servative influence in the labor world will prevail and that therc will not be a general strike of iron and steel workers, the threatened suspension of work has been a disturbing fac- tor in the market during the past week and still causes apprehension. A pleasing feature is the announced determination of unions having con- tracts with mills not to go on strike, and it is assurved that even if the radicals prevail, the operation of many plants will not be seriously dis- turbed. It is possible that if the strike is declared off, workmen at some points may quit work, refusing to follow the advice of the conser- vative leaders. The net result of the agitation is that little buying has been done. The desire of consumers and distributors to secure material has been more pro- nounced than in the earlier talks of strike, but so has been the hesitancy of the producers to add to their com- mitments. The demand for pig iron is not now active, and an Illinois foundry in- quiry for about 10,000 tons for de- livery in the first half of next year thus gains prominence. Persistent re- ports of weakness of basic continue, and there is a limited demand for all steel-making irons. Stove manufac- turers in the Central West are hav- ing difficulty in maintaining full op- eration on account of scarcity of molders. The demand for stoves in that part of the couatry is greater than the supply In coke the nceds of foundries coke are sufficiently urgent to force prices upward 26c and 50c per ton, one late sale of 100 cars bringing $8 per net ton. In furnace coke a swing in the opposite direction has taken place and prices for this quality have dropped 15c per ton, growing largely out of the postponement of huying hecause of possible plant idleness resulting from a general strike Structural steel awards continue in promising volume. A total of 27,500 tons involved in large projects has been closed. The tetal business done in August was the best since July, 1918, 78 1-2 per cent of the capacity of the bridge and structural shops of the country, or 141,500 tons being put under contract No allocation has vet been made of the 200,000 tons of rails which the railroad administration, it is thought, will buy at this time. The Inland Steel Co., in anticipation of heavy rail orders next vear, has commenced the construction of a rail mill at Indiana Harbor. Meanwhile a Canadian mill is busy on 75,000 tons for American railroads. Steel bars are still nominally at the 35c. Pittsburgh basis, forward hook- ings beihg refused until commitments are reduced. Most of the 2.50¢ b iness closed is for extended delivery Coated wire nails have now joined the otherwise strong wire products group and on 1500 kegs $3.10 has been done or c above the regular market On ship material the sovernment has again obtained base quotations of 50c, Pittsburgh, for plates and 2.40c for shapes. The former price is widely possible on attractive lots, but 2.45c is the generai market for structural material. Lake shipvards are figuring on boats which will take 40,000 tons of plates. Plate mills are generally operating at 60 to per cent of capacity, except in the East, where they are making only halt fheir possible output Buvers for oil well developments have been pressing to get covered ow- ing to the imminent stoppage of steel plants. Demand for oil fipe promises over at least two years. Tin plate makers, with stocks In consumers’ hands now well exhaust- ed. look to having a banner year in 1920. The leading about solda out for this is oper- ating at 95 per cent capacity. Sheet mills tell a similar tale and buyers are sceking with little or no success to cover for the first quarter of next year.
