AN AGRICULTURAL CLEARING HOUSE

There is to hope that the rather ambitious
scheme of David Lubn of this state for international
chamber of agriculture will become fact The pre-
mnary work has moved forward in a way that pre-
sages success The plan to hold it in Rome has met
with the favor of Itays king, and at his invitation the
leading nations of the world including own were
recently represented at meeting in that city for the
purpose of considering the proposal In due time the
conclusions reached will be promulgated but prelim
mary consultations held in other European capitals
were favorable, doubtless this will mark further
step toward consummation And it is highly proba-
BILE that Mr.. Lubins earnest work will result in
the formation of permanent international body
That such organization would be extremely val
liable any readily understand. 1t is not likely
that it will be formed wholly Mr. Lubins lines since
he advocated several features deemed impracticable.
For instance his idea that the chamber be endowed
with certain law making funcons-manifestly out of
the question. Also he contemplated the election of
members by the farmers hemselvesa matter also quite
out of the range of the possible But that the chamber
might conduct sales, to the extent of nations
whole crop, is not revolutionary, though not put for
ward as essential of the plan.
However, the real, sefevident purpose of the cham
berthat which would make IL of inestimable vaue-is
the most easily brought about 1t should be really
international clearing house of information of
preme worth to the agrcuturist, matter in what
line he be engaged Reports the state of the worlds
markets, the supply and demand the worlds stocks,
crop failures and condons-these things in themselves
afford ample for the assembys being, and their
promulgaJon authoritatvely would be of the greatest
Importance and good.
OF course, such organization, II perfected would
be expensive and great labor would be involved. But
the need for such correct and widely published nforma-
tlon is very pressing in the world today and If
it could be obtained and disseminated thoroughly
honest basis 1t would be worth all it might cost.
Let Mr.. Lubin go ahead with his chamber this

THE CHILDLESS FLAT

The chdless fat is a legal fact in Chicago. A
learned jrst of that city with all the weight that
hedges about dctum from the bench, has decided that
it has sanction in the statutes
The fiat wherein no children might be housed has
been condition, a theory, in Chicago for some
time Even other cities have likewise enuncated such
rule. But hitherto there has existed right in law
to prohibit family having babies in hat-provided
there room for them. One with babies might be
forbidden entrance, of course law law, since the
little usually prima facie evidence of their
existence. But for family to have additions after ad
mttance neither to be anticipated for

Now, however it is different A Chicago family
childess, rented fat and therein the stork found
lodgment. The baby not permissible under the
terms of the lease and its presence declared by the
owner to act a cancellation Of the tenancy.
The occupants demurred They held that they had
complied with the when they took the apartment

baby came it added blessing, eXtraneous to the

after the fact.
The question taken to court. The eminent coun

trouble, and made argument The judge took the sub

he rendered decision to the effect that the baby did

city which aspres to bigness perhaps than

HOW THE DINGHY LAW WORKS

Is the Panama canal zone domestic market7 II so
the United States must pay $2s a ton for American
made steel rails. II the zone is on the contrary,
foreign market the same United States may buy the
American made steel rails from the same manu-
facturers for $40.
The United States may 60 into the open markets
Of the world and buy rails under competition or which
II would pay only $175O) for America is building that
railroad and only American materials may be used.
These figures are quoted on the strength of state
ment by A. ]. Hollis, editor Of the American Manufac
turer He declares that the steel people have pooled
and agreed that S2S Is only fair price to home buyers
against $40 to foreigners because the tariff PRO
tecs" them to that extent$S ton. II they violate
this agreement then home purchasers may demand
rebate equal to the reduction. AS 100000 tons Of
steel rails are under orders, s160O0000 is
due in rebates If the price Of s2S is cut There will
be no cut, of course.
Isn't 1t peculiar condition when government
itself is mulcted So per ton materials which its own
laws permit the makers to sell at home, without com
petition for $2s, when all they can obtain in the COM
petative markets Of the world is $40?
Isn't 1t peculiar law that makes this possible?
That's only of the queer workings of the Dingley
tariff act, under which live.

Diamonds From the Sky

The Diablo meteorite contains small
diamonds in assures of the metal COLI
nected by cracks to the nucleus of sui
phide of iron. 1t seemed likely, then,
that surphur had displaced the carbon
from the carbide of iron. The meteo-
rite also contains phosphorus and sill
cium, which might intervene in the
separation of carbon. BY melting
Swedish iron in an electric crucible and
adding sulphide of iron, thenplunging
the crucible into cold water, Moissan
obtained little diamonds. The cold
water penetrating the carbon crucible
cooled the iron toward it's heart, where
the liquid carbon solidified in the form
of diamonds.
Diamonds obtained by adding sul-
phide of iron are like those made with
out it, but there are more of them.
Diamonds made by addition of sili-
cium are more irregular in form. The
addition OF phosphide of iron gave no
diamonds. M. Moissan concludes that
carbon, at ordinary pressure, submitted
TO a high temperature. vaporizes and
yields graphite. whereas carbon ique-
fed under a high pressure yields dia~
