PRINTING FROM SNOW LIGHT.

PRINTING FROM SNOW LIGHT.
Experiments have been made to as
certain the value Of snow as an aid to
printing, with the following results: 1t
was found that when snow was on the
ground the printing press should be turn
ed to the snow and not TO the sky. -Four
prints from the same negative were sue
cessfully made by turning the frames, the
first toward a north sky, without Clouds
the second toward the snowy surface. the
third toward the same surface lighted by
the sun, and the fourth directly toward
the sun. 1t was observed by noting the
duration of the different operations that
the direct light of the sun acted from one
third to one-fourth quicker than If it were
simply reflected by the snow-that is, re-
fiected light acted twice as quickly as the
simple light of the north sky without the
sun, which had an action five times slow
er than If it were reflected by the snow.
thus showing that when clean snow is
lying on the ground it is better to place
the printing frames so that they received
the light reflected from it. This fact has
been noticed with winter landscapes.
where-when under ordinary circumstan-
ces an exposure of, say, 80 sesconds would
be Siven-a much shorter exposure is
given on account of the mass of snow.
Experience tends TO prove that the light
given off by the snowy surface is abuot
half that falling upon it. 1t is common
ly stated that the exposure for mega
tive of q snow scene should be about
equal to that given on the same scene in
summer. and this appears approximately
correct. Now, seeing that the light at
widday in winter has only one-third to
one-fourth the Photographic power of that
at the same time in summer, it is evident
that the snow must reflect an enormous
amount of light as compared with objects

NEW INSURANCE MOVE.

Superintendent McNall VIII Enforce the
Valued Policy Law In Regard to Fire
Cases.
TOPEKA, Kan, Jan, 80. Webb Nc
Nall, superintendent of insurance,
proposes to enforce the valued policy
law in fire insurance. This says that
where buildings insured are totally
DESTROYED by fire the companies must
pay the full amount for which they are
insured Companies avoid it where
they can and heretofore there have
been no records in the insurance de-
partment to show how much the COM
panies pay on total losses.
