WELDING COPPER.

Welding copper has puzzled Macy
mechanics and metallurgists, but we
read in contemporary Of its recent
successful achievement. A compound
of 35S parts of phosphate of soda and
l24 parts of bOracic acid is prepared
and is used when the metal is in
dull heat; the heat is then increased
till the metal becomes Of a cherry red
color, and the latter is at once hanf-
mered. A hammer of wood is re-
commended for this purpose, as
the metal is liable to soften at q
high heat; and the hammer should be
used cautiously. All scale and car
bonaceous matter must be removed
from the surface of the copper, as the
success of the welding depends on the
formation of an easily fusible phOs-
plate of copper, which would be re-
duced by the presence of carbon.
THE DIAMOND MINES OF GoLCONDA.
1t is reported that one of the dia-
mond mines which were included
under the celebrated name of Golcon-
da is in a condition to be worked
again with profit. and that the in
dustry which once made Central
india famous is about to ne revived.
II y
are the ruins of the hill fort and city
of Golconda, where lived three cen
turtles ago an Independent prince who
ruled a vast territory. The diamonds
were not found in the intermediate
neighborhOOd of his capitol, but were
carried thither from villages In the
Kistna valley to be cut and polished
in its workshops. 1t is not known
Just when the famous industry began
to decline, nor why the diamond
mines were fully abandoned. If they
had been exhausted modern enter
! prise would not be of much avail, but
/ if, as if probable, hostile invasion put
a stop to the working of them, the
neigh bOrhood Of Golconda may be-
come a second time famous.
UTILIZING TIN SCRAPS.
About the last refuse article to be
1 turned TO any account would seem TO
/ be tin scraps. Leather waste and
/ other refuse III various kind of manu-
/ faeture have been, one after another,
utilized in the arts, but tin scraps have
| been regarded as utterly good Esor
/ nothing. Attempts have been made,
/ It is said. in France, England and
! other countries, to extract value from
/ them unavailingly. Two Philadel-
phia mechanics have, however, sue
ceeded in Utilizing this cast-off mater
ial. They began their experiments A
few wears AGO by melting down tin
scraps and galvanized iron refuse, and
have succeeded in procuring a super
ior article of iron from them. 1ney

business and employ Is or Is work
men. They pay So per ton for tin
scraps delivered on the premises.
These are placed in a furnace and
carbonized to such an extent as to
make q soft iron or semi-steel. It Is
claimed that enc ton of scraps viii

THE RICE TRADE.

Bremen has-no the largest trade
ia rice of amy European port. The
imports during the year ending July
81, 1881, amounted TO I2I.750 tons,
while London imported 1902 Liver
pool, 102, 53l Hamburg, 30, 4S3; Co
penhagen, 1851 Flensburg, 4736, and
Trieste, 1899 tons. The imports into
Holland were 9I,157; into Belgium,
38.3OS; France, 1866, and Italy, H.
331 tons. 1t will thus be seen that
England, with its 100000 tons, con-
sumes as much rice as almost all the
rest of Europe. This may be con-
sidered a proof of the comparative
wealth of the people, as rice pudding
with punch sauce may be justly con-
sidered Que of the little luxuries.
Strange to say that rice plain is, on
the other hand, the staple food of the
poorest classes Of all the Oriental
nations,

CHICORY.

Chicory was introduced by the first
Napoleon, like beet root, all over
Europe, and it has ever since been
used by parties studying economy,
and also in first-class hotels and cafes,
at the rate of two 10 three ounces
chicory to each pound of coffee; it
gives the coffee a richness of flavor,
which some persons prefer to pure
coffee in all rank tasted and most Of
the mild coffees it is considered by
some a decided improvement; it is
certainly healthy, nutritious article
of commerce.
STATE TRADE OF THE UNITED STATES.
Last year the capital invested in the
state trade in the United States was
nearly $I00OO,OOO, and the produce
was 100000 squares, Pennsylvania
alone producing 100000. The largest
quarry contains 60 acres and employs
200 men. It was opened i'm 1865 and
and In 1860 turned out 10000 squares.
The most durable states are from
Pennsylvania and Maine and are dark
blue and blue back. Green, red, pur-
pie and variegated do not keep color
well, and red kinds are the most ex-
BenSlVe.

Broom corn is likely at no distant
dav to revolutionize the breadstuff
supply of the world. A process has
been discovered by which the finest
and most delicious -four can be made
from the seed to the extent of one
half its worth, and leave the other
half a valuable food for making beef
and milk. The average yield per acre
is 300 bushels, or 5000 pounds have
been secured. Nor does it exhaust
the soil as Indian corn, from the fact
that it reeds from the deeper soil, and
assimilates its food from a cruder
state. It belongs 10 the same genus
as the sweet cane commonly known as
sorghum, which as an article of foSd
is growing rapidly in public esteem,
and from the seed of which a most
nutricious -four can be obtained.

PUTTING HooP ON A BARREL
hoop on a family -four barrel is an operation
that will hardly bear an encore. The woman
generally attempts 1t before the man comes
home to dinner. She sets the hoop up on tho
end of the slaves, takes a deliberate aim with
the rolng-pin, and then shutting both eyes,
brings down the pin with all the force of ono
arm, whle the other instinctivey shields her
face. Then she makes a dive for the camphor
and unbleached muslin, and " hen the man
comes home, she is sitting back of the stove

self aud puts the hoop on very carefully, and
then adjusts 1t so nicely on the top of every
stave that only few smart raps apparently
are needed to bring 1t down all right. And
then he laughs to himself to think what
fuss his wife kicked up for simple little
matter that only needed little patience to
adjust itself; then he gets the hammer, and
gives the hoop small rap on one side and
the other flies up and catches lin ON the nose,
filling his soul with wrath and his eyes with
tears, and the next instant the hoop is flying
across the room accompanied by the hammer

Cu1TING FRElaHnN.

Rates Reduced from 50. Louis West-East
Bound FreIGhts Mt Chicago.
ST. LOUIS, June 14.-Freights to south
ern and southeastern points over the
Green Line were cut yesterday five cents
per 100 pounds. The classes which are
effected are B, G, D and F, which cover
canned goods, meats, produce and kind
red freights. The reduction was made on
the representation of st. Louis firms, who
showed that owing to q disparity in rates
they were being undersold in their princi-
pal markets by Eastern and Chicago con-
Germs.
CHICAGO, June 14.-East bound freight
rates are again in q highly unsatisfactory
condition. Shippers decline to use the 25
cent rate on grain to New York on the
ground that they can get rate of 20 cents.
Eastern roads generally deny that cut is
going on, but it is learned that positive
evidence to that effect has been forwarded
to Commissioner Fink. II 20 cent rate is
not made, it Is said competition will force
the rate far below that figure.
NEW York, June 14.-The following
circular was issued this afternoon: cit
having been shown that the established
tariff on grain was not maintained by all
the railroad lines, Commissioner Fink,
under the agreement of March IL, has au-
thori3ed general reduction of the grain
rates on basis of 90 cents per 100 from
Chicago to New York. If this rate il not
strictly maintained q further reduction
will be authorized to meet the lowest
special rate that may be made, until such
roads are willing to maintain higher rates
and make them alike to all shippers be-
tween the same localities. This action is
taken to prevent unjust discrimination be-
tween shippers from the same localities.
No other classes of freight except grain
and eighth class are affected by this
reduction. Rates may be increased with
out the previous ten days notice."

Nova scotian for st. Johns, N. B., where
the party will be transferred to their own
vessel, and leave about the first of next
month for Lady Franklin Cat. 81. .4O),
where a station will be established, at
which the mission will remain until the
fall of 1888. From this point various ex-
petitions will be sent out by sleigh and
steamer in search of the Jeanette. but the
chief object of the undertaking is of a
scientific character, and it will be in COM
| muniCation,from time to time with others
of similar nature belonging to other
nations. The expedition will engage
Esquimaux and dogs at Disco, and a
steam Whaler will be especially chartered
for their use. Lieutenant Lockwood, who
kindly gave the above information, was
asked if q captive balloon would not prove
q valuable addition, SO as to afford wider

becoming surrounded by lofty icebergs.
He replied that he thought it was good
