dress OF the afternoon was made by
Mrs. MacMurphy Of Omaha. who gave a

Speaking Of the staple grains OF the
state, che claimed that corn was not
used as generally as it should be for food
for the family; that it was very nutri-
tious and economical and for this reason
there would be in the near future q
great demand for it from the European
countries. The various ways in which
it can be used as food will be demon
strated in corn kitchen, which the
United States government will provide
for at the Paris exposition. At the close
OF Mrs. MacMurphy's talk, Mrs. Sawyer
introduced resolution, recommending
Mrs. MacMurphy as the representative
for Nebraska in the corn kitchen at
Paris. The resolution. amended to
secure the signature Of the state presi-
dent as well as the woman's club Of Lin

PASSIVE STATE OF IRON.

The passive state or iron is the sta:e in which the e.al resists the attack Of acid: applied to it's surfaces. This peculiar state is attributed by chemists to the formation an over the surface of the iron of an extremely thin layer of oxide. M. Mitchell of Geneva has lately succeeded in measuring lhe thickness Of the layer Of oxi3e by a very ingenious and delicate method
 He frs; constructs a small pain mirror out cf iron, with it's surface in the "ac- tive state " So-called, that i:, in the or dinaTy state. The angll of polariza- ton of light at the surface of the mir TOT is de.eImincd, and then it's surface is uXidized by immersion in nitric acid and the angle of polarization is again determined, this time with the surface in the passive state" These meas ures enable the thickness of the layers of oxide to be calcu,a.cd, anI it is
