least. Manufacturers have submit
ted many explosives for test at the
station and a considerable portion
of them passed and have been classi-
fled among the permissible explo-
sives. The investigations and edu-
cational work in connection with the
use of artificial breathing and other
types of mine rescue equipment, the
so-called oxygen helmets, have not
only been useful in developing a
more satisfactory use Of such equip
ment in the examination Of mine ex-
plosions, but also better methods for
using this equipment in mine rescue
work.
The fuel investigations under the
geological survey. and which are
transferred to the bureau OF mines,
have already resulted in a better
realization throughout the country
as to the value of fuels. One result
of this work is that nearly all the
fuel now purchased by the federal
government is bought on specifica-
tions and subject to test by the fuel
division, or purchased after examin-
alton made of the coal supplied by
the mines from which coal is deliver
ed to the government.

WOMEN AND THEIR WORK. \
Women Build the Homes.

"OhhCh Duiiu tjtt HUIntS.
The prominent part which women
are playing in the development of
the farm interests of the country has
emphasized the great part they take
in the home making OF the nation.
Many little farm house on the
prairie, miles away from a neighbor
and with few periodicals and only
occasional mail, would be a desolate
place but for the heart and brain OF
the woman whose home 1t is, and It
is the spirit Of enterprise and COM
fort which has made many log hut
or dugout more OF home than some
OF the pretentious houses in the land,
for there is vast difference be-
tween a home and a house.
A house is built OF bricks and
stones, OF sills and post and piers,
But home Is built of loving deeds
that stand thousand years.
A house, though but humble cot,
within It's walls may hold
A home Of priceless beauty, rich in
Loves eternal gold.
The men on earth build houses, halls
and chambers, roofs and domes,
But the women Of earth-God knows
the women build the homes"

BUREAU OF MINES
THOROUGHLY EXPLAINED
Newly Established Department at
Work Improving Conditions of
Underground Workers.

The act establishing a bureau OF
mines in the department of the in
terror approved May 16, 1910, be-
came effective July l. AS original
ly approved, the law contemplated
the transfer of the entire techno-
logic branch of the United States
geological survey. the mine accident
investigations, fuel investigations,
structural materials investigations,
the entire personnel, property and
equipment, to the bureau of mines,
but the sundry civil appropriation act
approved June %, amended the law
to such an extent that the structural
materials investigations, including
the personnel and equipment for
these investigations went to the bu-
reau of standards, department of
commerce and labor
Carrying out the spirit and intent
Of the law so amended, the secretary
of the interior has transferred to the
bureau of mines the investigation OF
mine accidents and fuels, together
with the personnel and equipment OF
these Investigations and has trans
ferred to the bureau of standards

tions and the employees of the tech.

gagged in these investigations. The
fully equipped testing station al
Pittsburg also goes to the bureau OF
mines.
The bureau of mines therefore in.
cludes the mine accidents and fuel
investigations for which an appro.
priation of $4,000 was made by
congress, The total appropriations
for the bureau, including salaries
rent and expenses of removal
amount to s5O2.2OO.
The work of the bureau OF mines
for the first year will be a continua.
tion and expansion OF the work car.
ried on by the technologic branch OF
the geological survey. The law in
itself provides for a variety of other
problems that properly belong to the
bureau of mines and which should
eventually be undertaken, such as
methods OF mining and metallurgical
processes but these activities will be
deferred for the most part until
congress gives additional authorize.
tion In the shape of adequate appro.
priations. The spirit Of the debates
in congress, both on the bureau OF
mines legislation and on the appro
priation items. emphasized the de.
sire to regard the mine accidents in.
vestigations as urgent and this will
be the feature OF the work.

TAFT TO AVOID ROW
WITH COL. ROOSEVELT
President Refuses to Concede There
Is Any Dispute Over New
York Situation.

A dispatch from Beverly, Mass,
says that President Taft Is hard at
work on a letter that he Is prepar-
ing for the republican campaign
handbook, and on the speech which
he will deliver at the conservation
congress in st. Paul. In both of
these papers, it is announced, the
executive will avoid reference, d.
rectly or indirectly, to the rumored
split between him and Colonel
Theodore Roosevelt. His friends
point out that Mr.. Roosevelt has
made no statement respecting a
break that would furnish the basis
for a controversy, even were the
president seeking one, and that the
presidents policy has been to keep
hands off state fights. 1t Is under
stood that Mr.. Taft will make plea
for party harmony, but that this will
not have special reference to the
New York situation. The rumored
differences between Taft and Roose-
velt are said to have arisen in con-
sequence of Taft's presumed indorse-
ment of the action Of the New York
State Republican committee in NOM
mating Vice-President Sherman for
temporary chairman of the coming
state convention Colonel Roose-
welt was a candidate against Sher-
man.
Taft Issues Statement.
L. c. Griscom, chairman Of the
New York state republican commit
tee, has made public letter from
President Taft in which the latter
takes New York republican machine
leaders to task for permitting the
impression to prevail that he had
any part in the nomination of Vice
President Sherman as temporary
chairman Of the republican state
convention. He says that he deplores
the action of the committee in trying
to force Mr.. Sherman on the con-
vention and that he has always ad-
vised party leaders in this state to
confer with Colonel Roosevelt re-
garding state politics.
