WHAT IT MEANS TO START A BLAST
FURNACE.


Few people, who have not actually run
blast furnace, realize what it means to fill
the capacious nav of one of those mon
sters. A stack of 200 tons daily capacity.
running on so per cent. ore, must have de-
livered to it each day something more
than 400 tons of ore, $50 to 300 tons of coke,
and over 100 tone of limestone, besides
sand, coal and minor supples-say 800 tons
of raw materials, Add the 200 tons of pig
iron product shipped out, andw have
daily freight movement of 100 tons, TAX
ing no note of the disposition of the Stag
The mining of the ore requires the labor of
$50 to 800 men; the coal mining, coke max
ing, quarrying of limestone, and transport
tation, at least 800 more. The furnace it.
self employs about $50 or more hands.
Starting up a furnace of ordinary capaci-
ty, therefore, calls Immediately for the la
Dor of nearly a thousand men; for the use
of at least thousand railway cars and
many locomotives; for perhaps several
steamers and vessels on the lakes; for
capital from the mines to the pig iron, of
one to two millions of dollars, and last,
but not least, for a high order of manag-
ing ability.-The Engineering Mogozine for
October.

What are we to make of the fact that
although Honore de Balzac died in 1850,
vet now, on the very eve of the TWEEN
tieth century, no fewer than three
translations of his novels, each putting
forward pretensions to completeness
more or less justified, are offered to the
English-speaking world.
One of these issued by of
Boston, has been in course Of publica-
ton for some years, it has this
demerit. that MANY OF THE VOL
uMES ARE ABRIDGED, and AL
MOST ALL OF THEM ARE EXPUR-
GATED.

forth in London under me editorship

IN RAW SUGAR
Microbes That Do Much
Harm are Found.
Cause OF Marked Deterioration-in-
Il vestigation IN Louisiapa-Eieid
Trouble Solved.

NEW ORLEANS, Dec. 25.-The bac-
THEOLOGICAL and microscopic depart
ment of the Louisiana Agricultural
Station at Audubon Park, New Orleans
has been making an investigation TO
ascertain the cause of the failure of
the Louisiana sugar cane crop. Not a
few of the failures in sugar yield
which were believed TO be due to me-
Neurological or climatic conditions have
been traced to microbes.
One OF the first discoveries stumbled
on by the psychologists was the cause
LOT the deterioration of crude sugars,
especially those imported from Cuba
and Hawaii. 1t has been noticed that
these sugars almost invariably show a
falling off of one or more points in
polarization within few weeks after
shipment. AS the reduction OF each
degree in polarization means loss OF
one pound to the hundred weight, the
matter Is one of considerable CONNER
cial importance. A careful examination
with microscope disclosed the fact
that all sugar which showed falling
off in polarization was swarming with
bacteria The investigation was con-
tinued, until the bacteria which caused
the damage were isolated. The mi
crobe has not yet been named, but II
the bacteriologists suceaed in demon
strating all they hope to, they will be
able not only TO show the cause OF
1.-THE deterioration in raw sugars, but
Ialso to devise a method whereby the
lravages of the bacteria can be very
materially diminished.
Another fact discovered by the in
vestigation is that mould which ap-
pears in the ends of stubble cane Is due
to bacteria, and is the cause OF failure
of the stubble to grow. The lower buds
from which the second years growth
develops, derive their sustenance from
the nutritive matter stored directly
around them in the base OF the stalk
and the supply is damaged by fermen'
tation produced by the microbes in tht
mould The buds do not terminate ant
the stubble is therefore a failure. The
discovery of this germ is OF practisa
benefit, because a remedy has beer
found. BY runnig a furrow so as u
cover up the cut ends OF the stubble
they are protected from the bacterif
and cannot be injured by the mi
crObes.
While the examination has not gon'
far enough to determine the cause o
the failure Of this years cane crop
there is every reason to believe from
, what has so far been disclosed thai
this mystery also will be solved.
