It has been known for years some heavy substances will float with more certaiDty than It Is reported that about 1885 Carrie J. Everson, a western lady school teacher, assisting in her Denver assay office, dis- covered the main principles on which all subsequent flotation work has been based. She had placed some greasy concentrate sacks in the wash tub and with the washing (ore bags are rarely, if ever, washed by men) the germ of tlie idea of oil flotation came under her observa- tlon.

As a substitute for steel (1,000 board feet of lumber saves one ton of steel) military engineers are using vast quantities of wood. They are building it into trusses, into plywood airplanes which are lighter and more easily repaired than planes, into hangars, bridges and balsa wood trestles. Feather-weigimported from Costa Rica, Colombia, Nicaragua, Guatemala, and Ecuador, is used for life rafts, mine floats, and life preservers. The PT boats of the navy, formerly made of metal, have been lightened and strengthened 33 Vi per cent through the use of wood. f w all-met- al ht f 'Vi.'fe : - '4.1 ' ll w CI - t J I I a ..J ki l' the sold.er. oi drinnini Japanese prisoner.?

Farm Income Bessy Bossy for years was the main source of income on Massachusetts farms, but not so any longer, says E. W. Bell, extension marketing specialist at Massachusetts State college. Two years ago, 1942, the little red hen for the first time passed bossy as a money maker when she shelled out more than 32" million dollars as compared with a bit over 30 million for bossy. In 1943 the hen made another phenomenal increase and produced better than 46 million dollars while bossy increased her income to only Twenty years ago the dairy income on Massachusetts farms was more than twice the income from hens.

St. Lehi. New Jersey leads the nation in the production of chemicals, according to statistics made public by the American Chemical society. In a single year, New Jersey chemical industries manufacture some $200,000,000 worth of chemicals, about 20 per cent of all those made in the United States. "New Jersey is the most important factor in drug grinding in the world and through its ports and factories are funneled most of the essential rare and common drugs fcr medicinal products," it was stated. Roughly New Jersey has 15 per cent of all chemical manufacturing establishments in the United States. The New Jersey mdtrstrf has 215 per cent of the salaried employees in the chemical group, and 20.5 per cent of the wage earners. It pays out over $11,000,000 in salaries equal to 26.5 per cent of the total and over $24,000,000 of wages, roughly equal to 20 per cent of the total. Moon Farming that the moon affects of a more uniform income. What may be more important, under present conditions, it has aided in the labor problem. Less labor can handle the brooding by this method, at least where the volume is very great. The income from the sale of broilers will be greater as they will not all be placed on the market during the period that prices are lowest. New Jersey Leading Chemical Center in U. S.
