300 revolutions minute for hard stone, at
which rate about one loot per minute can
be cut. For soft stone steel teeth are used.

Pipe Lines of Glass

The latest invention is pipe line made
OF glass. The glass manufacturing firm
whose plant is located at Port Allegany in
this county, is preparing to make glass tubes
that can be used for sending oil or gas across
the country, for carrying off sewage, sup
plying cities with water, etc. The glass
pipe does not corrode, it is impervious to
the electrolysis in underground conduits,
and, it is claimed, is less likely to break than
iron pipe. An Ohio company is now put
