Drying Bananas Ter shipmert-

Drying baEanas for shipment has beer
tested in Trinidad, West Indies with
marked success. A report received by
the bureau OF American republics at
Washington sets forth that the cost of
producing bunch Of bananas weighing
80 pounds, including the purchase OF
land, clearing, draining, planting, weed.
ing. cutting, drying, fuel, boxes, and
packing for market would average only
81 cents. The fruit in drying loses one.
third of its weight. When dried it sells
readily at 16 cents pound. Allowing
for the loss Of weight this would yield
Sa.16 bunch-a clear profit for the
grower of :S2.19. An order for several
hundredweight of the dried fruit at Cd.
az cents a pound for the London market
has been received at Trinidad. Even at
this price a handsome profit would be
realized. An actual sale OF nearly hun.
dred boxes of the dried fruit has recently
been made in Canada at 90 cents pound
and the Canadians are asking for more
ut tho same price. Deducting freight
charges the net price was 10 cents. The
variety Of banana which yields the best
result is said to be the "Gross Michael. 7"
| Over 100000 plants have been distrib-
uted In Trinidad and Tobago within the
last two years. The purchasers were
principally large planters, and there is
every indication that the industry will
be pursued on an extensive scale, and
that dried bananas will soon be an i'm
portant item in the commerce Of the
West Indies.

Every one agreed that the Am erican
skilled artisan puts forth more physical
effort and produces more work in a
given time than the English workm IN
or the workman Of any other manufao t.
uring community. This fact struck n,
and many experienced directors of work $
most forcibly. Before concluding ou E
tour had the opportunity OF verifying :
and strengt hening this first impression.
After watching the American workmen
at Pittsburg and elsewhere arrived nj
the same conclusion as to, their eff.
cheney Their productive power is greater
than that Of the English workers in TIE
same time, and their working, hours are
longer and thei, remuneration is greater.
] met one of my old workmen at Mr..
Carnegfe's works in Pittsburg, and he in--
dorsed my opinion. Speaking from ho,
own practical experience:
Il am quite a Different man here, ~
he said, from what was in the old
country; I don't know why it is so;:
whether it is that live in q. stimulating
atmosphere OF whether it is-tale example,
set me; but know that have got the
60 in me. can do more work; l feel
that have it in me; but also feel and
/ know that it won't last. l shall be
done in 10 years"
No, it won't last. The extreme physi-,
cal effort put forth results in greater pro-
duction, but it saps the vital energies
and cuts short the career. This con-
tinual work at high pressure does not.
pay in the end. 1T won't last;" and
the remark applies with equal force to.
the employers as we'll as 10 the workers.
Competition between manufacturers Is,
keener than in this country. They work
their business at high pressure. There is
terrific struggle between them for
possession Of the markets. They put
forth their utmost enesgies; and when,
all can not be the Leaders in industry.
This fierce competition reacts on the
men. We were surprised to find in a
democratic country like America that
the workmen had 50 little power and
were to such large extent the docile in
struments of energetic employers.
The "bosses," as the foreman and man.
ayers of factories are called, drive. the
men to an extent that employers would
never dream Of attempting in this
country. There are trades unions, but
they do not seem able to protect the
men in this respect. The "bosses" have
the faculty of driving" the men and
getting the maximum amount Of work
out OF them, and the men do not seem
to have the inclination or power to resist
the pressure. American manufacturers
thus get the greatest possible service Out
of their plant.-Sr James Kitson, in the
Contemporary Review.

A Swiss scholar has been taking GEN.
sus of the inhabitants Of a cheese. The
microscopic examination of one
"gramme of fresh Emmonthaler
contained no fewer than 10000 SO called
microbes. This prodigious encampment,
after 70 days, proved to have increased
to tribe of 100000. Another sort of
cheese contained within single
"gramme" board and lodging for about
2 900, 900 microbes, while in "gramme"
cut from the rind of the same cheese
were found about 100000 of these in

sequently contain more microbe inhab'

The Electrical Era In silver Mining.

r. 8. Hunton, one Of the leading mine
owners of Colorado, says that electricity
opens up new era in the production Of
silver. The reason of this statement Is
that many Of the high mountain mines
have been valueless because of the expense
Of transporting fuel to them. Now
through the utilization of water power
with the electric motor these mines can be
operated cheaply, and notable increase
of output may be looked for. So evident
is this fact that there has already sprung
up demand for electrical mining ma
chinery in Mexico, and our American
electrical manufacturing companies art
now sending large quantities of apparatus
thither.

GENERAL wArxn.s TWO GRAVES
The Dust OF Dashing mad Antho onyo
Divided and Rendered.

The Dust OF Dashing "Mad Anthony
Divided and Reinterred.
There is no doubt that one portion Of
the body Of General Wayne, the hero Of
Stony Point-"Mad Anthony, as he was
popularity termed-was inferred at the
place where he died and the other in his
native county. His original burial place
was Fort Presque Isle, upon the site of
which the city of Erie, Pa, now stands
the other locality honored as his last
resting place is Rednor Cemetery. in
Chester county. Pa. According to the
Detroit Free Press, this curious circum-
stance was brought about in the follow.
ing manner:
In the year 1918 the family of this
famous man was given permission to re.
move his dust to Rednor, but upon OPEN
ing the grave 1t was found that the BODY
was partly petrified, and, consequently,
very heavy. A medical friend of the
family. recognizing the fact that it would
be very difficult and costly task 10
transport the remains in that condition.
determined as far IS possible to remove
the petrified flesh from the bones, and
this was accordingly done. The bones
were then carefully packed up and
delivered to the son, who was kept in ig-
norance Of the operation, and he con-
veyed the box containing the precious
remains of his fathers body to his native
county, where they were inferred with
appropriate ceremonies.
A monument was erected in 1909 over
The grave by the Pennsylvania Society Of
the Cincinnati. What remained of the
warrior was reinterred at Fort Presque
Isle and some years ago was discovered
in the same state Of preservation as when
first exhumed, in a box bearing his name.
Another memorial stone was raised in
that place, and thus was co,nmemorated
the fact that all that was mortal sf Mad
Anthony Wayne found a final resting
place in two localities far apart from
each other.

The Marble Man of II O m Q.

It was known several centuries ago
that on the facade of one of the munich.
pal buildings erected by the Emperor
Augustus, of Rome, was affixed great
marble slab, on which the map of Rome,
with all its streets, temples, public build
ings, and gardens were tracA in deeply
indented lines. A large part Of this map
was dug up during excavations made on
the site of the forum of Augustus many
years ago, and 25 more fragments of this
marble plan of Rome have just been
found in the excavations for the works
of the Tiber embankment on the other
side of Rome and across the river. The
story of how these fragments got so far
away from the ruins to which they or.
iginally belonged is curious one.
In the sixteenth century, during the
reign of Pope Paul iii, excavations were
| commenced near the site of the wall on
which the plan was known to have been
affixed, and good many fragments OF
the marble plaque were found, of whicl
those considered the most important wer'
given to the municipal authorities, ant
the smaller bits (then deemed worthless
but beyond price to the skilled and patien
archeologists of today were cast into |
heap of building materials, comprising
doubtless, many other precious fragment
of marble. and were eventually built int
the walls of the old Alfiieri Palace, par
Of which has been uncovered in making
the foundation for the Tiber embank
ment. These fragments were found seve
meters below the actual level Of the Re
man streets, or rather more than 90 feet

IN THE WORKSHOPS
HAPPENINGS OF TIE WEEK IN THl FIELDS
OF INDUSTRY.
The Window Glass Scale Settled Las
hursdsy-NinOr Events in WHEEL
ing and Vicinity.

The past week has not been marked
by any notable occurrence in industrial
circles, with the exception OF the fnal
adjustment of the difference between
manufacturers and window glass work,
ers, which affects great many work
ingmen in this vicinity. The improve
ment in the industrial situation contin-
ues, with bright prospects for resump-
ton Of work in several more manufac-
tories during the coming week.
-
The news that the window glass scale
has at last been settled will be gladly re-
ceIved byIworkmen in this vicinity who
are engaged in that industry. The
manufacturers aud representatives OF
.. A., 800 held another meeting last
ThursdaH at which the subject was dis
cussed mall its bearings, and an annie
able agreement reached. The sub-com-
mittees having charge OF the wages dis
agreed, and new subcommittee we're
appointed After rather heated dis
cussion al Thursday morning, 1t was
agreed to pay last years wages with
some slight modification In usages. In
the future all glass must be worked
when il Is strong enough to hold to-
qether on the "horse." When glass is
stony, the blower. II required TO work
the same, to be guaranteed an average
blowing. With these slight modifca-
tions, the wage scale was signed for the
ensuing blast. Owing 70 the stagnant
condition of the glass market, manufsc-
turers viii probably not resume opera
tons until about the middle OF October.
Manufacturers will probably call meet
ing some time this week to fix date for
starring up. Wages has not been ad-
justed IN the Eastern or Northern dis
tricts. but this will probably be done
this week. Says the BeIlaire IndepeJsd-
ent, "the good news was especially In
teresting to Bellaire, where three or
four furnaces are ready to operate and
will add much to the town when they
get in operation. There were more than
Just those who will be directly engaged
in the factories interested, and there Is
general rejoicing among workmen and
everybody else"

NATIONAL LEAGUE MEETING.


Asking the Association to Return to the
Fold-NothinE Accomplished in the way
OF Peace.
NEW YORK, September 19.-The mag
mates adjourned late yesterday without
having done anything. They passed
resolutions which meant nothing. In
the resolutions the magnates praised
themselves and the National agree
ment, and then did the most aston
ishiDg and unlocked for thing of for
giving the Association and asking
it to come back into the fold.
There seems to be an idea that Won
der Abe and Won der Horst are in with
the magnates and all are working their
points so as to get the Boston Reds out
Of the way. The st. Louis Browns and
Baltimores have made no money this
season, and they will not as long as the
Boston Reds are in existence. The con-
fidentlal correspondence given out by
Won der Abe as having passed between
himself and Won der Horst on the sub
ject of jumping to the League Is
looked upon as part of the scheme
to scare Prince, of Boston, so
that he will sell out. The League
virtually says in the resolu-
lions 10 the Association, 1--WE forgive
you, please return. You must want the
public's dollars and so does the League.
The only way we can get them is to
live under the National agreement
again. The public is on us now, we
must not fight any more just at pres
ent." The magnates are still scheming
and will do so until they attain their
end. 1t is expected that the League
and Association teams will meet in an
interchange game after the season
closes. The motto now is, Get rid OF
the Boston Reds"
