Arnor Plates.

In an article In Nature on "Armor
Plates" Mr. Hadhcld says 1t was ow-
Ing to the enterprise Of the American,
Harvey, that II was found possible to
take soft steel plates and carburize
them by the cementatlon process, so
that steel plates were obtained with
faces containing considerable percent
ages OF carbon. up TO 20 or so per cent,
while the rear still retained Its original
soft ana tough condition, Such plate,
after being treated and quenched In
water, either wholly OF on the hard
side, then possessed hard surface,
against which shot broke into frag-
ments, Further improvements We're
introduced at Krupp's Essen works,
carburizing the surface by means Of
gas cemeatation instead of charcoal.
The latest type of hard faced plates
possesses about twice the resistance of
the older type of plates. This enables
q great saving to be effected In the
weight of arinor TO be used for the pro-
tectlon Of the modern warshlp.

fuse to believe that their country has

THE FUTURE OF BREAD.
Curious Wheat Problem That the
World Has to Face.

Cur1Oue Wneat FrODlem inHt tho
World Has to Face.
If Sir William Crookes is to be be.
lieved, scarcity OF food is not by any
means remote. 1t may come within
sight of persons now alive, and these
not very young. The case may be very
easily stated. AT present the deficien-
cies of the wheat eating countries are
supplied by North America. especially
by the United States.
In 1918 the wheat crop of the Unit
ed States was about 540,000,000 BUSH
els. OF this quantity 217,00O,00O bush
els were exported to Europe. where no
country, excepting Russia and Turkey,
grows enough for its own population.
The States are able to do this without
trenching on the home supply because
the total population is not more than
75,0O0,O00. In 1881, IL the increase of
population goes on at the same rate
as that Of the last 80 years, the $1,000.
900 will have increased to l30,OOO,OOO,
and the surplus for export will be no
longe: available.
Whence. therefore, will the wants Of
the world be supplied? Dussia at pres
ent exports largely, the total bsira
something more than two-fifths of that
from the States. But 1t cannot be
hoped that Russia will come to the
rescue of Il hungry world. 1t 10 already
hungry itself, exporting food wsie its
own people are starving. Any change
here must be In the way of distribu-
tion. This change will be the more
speedy because the Russian popula-
tion. in spite of its sufrerings, in.
creases. Indeed. the difficulty Of the
general problem is aggravated by the
fact that up to the point of actual
starvation scarcity not only does not
check, but actually stimulates the rate
of increase. A perfectly well fed. well
educated and generally comfortable
population has tendency to diminish
rather than to grow.-London Spec
tator.
