MAKING PRECIOUS STONES.
Chips Of the Ruby Turned Into Stones
of Commercial Size.

VI OlLCs
Rudolph Oblatt, chemist and ex-
pert on precious stones, is reported to
have invented process for the fus-
ing of particles of ruby, known as
ruby waste, into stones Of a CONNER
cial size. The stones which he has
produced have received considerable
attention from local biologists and
are pronounced genuine. He selects
from the small, rough, genuine ruby
particles whose colors and qualities
are practically the same. One chip
he places upon the top Of U-shaped
platinum tube. He then applies the
heat, which is concentrated by a spe-
cial process, and forced upon the ruby
with an air pressure Of 500 pounds.
AS the chip is melted he adds other
chips until he has built up a genuine
ruby whose weight varies from five to
ten carats. The operation requires
from one to two hours.
After the ruby has been produced a
difficult task remains-that of cooling
the stone, which Is at a tremendous
heat. This is accomplished by a sci
entific process which prevents crack.
ing. The ruby is sent to the precious
stone cutters, where It passes exactly
through the same process as a stone
from the Burmah mines.-New York

Land Surveying.

The art Of land surveying owes rs
origin to the fact that the Egyptians
were unable to keep permanent monu.
ments on land which was overfowed
every year by the Nile. Under such
circumstances it became necessary to
have some means Of reldentifying the
various pieces of land. The instru-
ments and mathematical methods Of
astronomy, with suitable modifica-
lions, were used by the Egyptians for
land surveying.
