PEARL INDUSTRY

BURLINGTON, Ia, July Ito !

ton industry is the object of searching
investigation to be carried on this
summer along the Mississippi river by
a<government commission. Within the
past few years the pearl button busi-
tions along the upper Mississippi val
ley. The large quantities of mussel
shells found in the sandbars and river
beds are utilized in the making of the
blanks from which the buttons are
fashioned. So great has the demand
for these shells become that the sup
ply is running short. Factories in
Burlington and other Mississippi river
cities are already shipping many car
loads of shells from other parts of
the country.
The blanks and buttons are shipped
to Germany and other foreign coun-
tries for finishing. The contingency
that has presented itself in the grad
ual failure of the supply of shells
l means a serious menace to a lucra-
! tive industry. Congressman Dawson
of Iowa, in whose district the pearl
i button business is especially well de-
veloped, secured the passage of bin
in the last congress appropriating suf-
ficient funds to provide for commits
sion to examine into the habits and
conditions of the mussel, and to de-
termine whether there was any way
by which their propagation might b'
increased.
At the head of this commission wa'
placed Professor Paur Bartsch o

CHEMISTS MAKE

LONDON, July There are many
instances in the history of mechanics
and chemistry of two scientists work.
ing toward the same end with corre-
spending results, yet unknown to each
other. AS an instance, there is the
we'll known case of Harvey in Ameri-
works in Sheffield evolving the sys-
tenn of carburising and chilling armor
plates. Now there is an equally i'm
portant case as the result of the re-
search which has long been in prog
ress in order to make coal smokeless
when consumed. Much has been
promised for coalite. and there are
those who believe that this fuel
when used for fartories and house
holds in London and other large
towns, will solve the problem oi
smoke, If not also Of fog.
But it is equally interesting t.
learn that some Glasgow chemist;
have been working in the same direc'
ton with like success, and arrange
ments are now we'll advanced by th'
Glasgow company toward the con
struction of works in the coal distric
of Midlands, as well as in the bankar
shire, for the treatment of coal In or
der to remove the impurities whiel
involve smoke, while yet leaving In tn
fuel a very large proportion OF 1t
carorific value. At the same time, tn
impurities, when treated, are to yiel
important residual results.

works has been preferred to the origi
