of Northern Missouri are thousands
of pearls of varying sizes and ages.

shells can be readily obtained. The
federal authorities are now wrest-
ling with the problem of artificial
propagation, and laws are needed to
protect the mussel CLAIMS. The fac
tories in which the blanks and the
buttons are made are all well built,
generally of brick and are full of in
tricate and fast running machinery.
The workers are skillful and well
paid, their occupations being far from
monotonous, owing to the active lives
they lead and the interesting and
many stages each shell passes through
before it finally appears as string
of lustrous buttons of varying sizes,
ready to be sorted and stitched on the
cards for the market.
In the five factories which report
ed for 1909 to Labor Commissioner
Hitler, there were employed 268 male
workers and l02 females, who, in that
year, drew sl09, 1S9 in wages for an
average Of 800 days. For raw ma
terial and supplies the disbursements
were $l09,667. The invested capital
was $l45,0OS, of which $4O,9OS was
in machinery. For rent, taxes and
insurance the amount paid out was
$2,SO9.
Other Statistical Facts.
All of the above will form a chap
ter in the 1910 Red Book of the
bureau of labor statistics. The fol-
lowing table, prepared by Supervis-
ing Statistician A. T. Edmonston,
shows the value of the pearl button

1904, and give the amount paid out in
waueS for each year.
The Butler weekly times., 1910-06-09

In six years the pearl button fac
tories of Missouri have turned out
buttons to the value of 1919, 474, and
at the same time paid out for salaries
and wages $4l6, 1863. And yet the in
dustry is only one of Missouri's many
side-lines. The mussel itself is now
being used as food for hogs. The
flesh is cooked to preserve it and
then fed in mixed state. The por-
ton of the shell which remains after
all useful parts have been cut into
button blanks, has many uses, such
as lime feed for chickens. The lime
can be converted into cement.
Various kinds of pretty ornaments
are made by one of the factories out
of the shells, and at times campaign
emblems have been made from them.

Iron Sulphur For Killing Weeds.

An Iowa correspondent writes:
"What are the proportions Of iron
sulphate and water to kill weeds by
sprinkling?"
Two pounds of iron sulphate to
gallon OF water is the right proper
ton to kill most weeds. Grasses and
weeds with shiny surface are very
little affected by iron sulphate spray.
1t is this fact that gives the spray its
value. Grain fields badly infested
with mustard and horse weed must
be sprayed at the rate Of fifty-two
gallons to the acre, the weeds killed,
and the grain not damaged. In the
Dakotas, where grains are grown
without rotation and the mustards
have become a destructive pest, it
has been found that spraying grain
fields is often a paying proposition.
In the corn belt where the grains
are grown in rotation, it is probable
that it would rarely be the case that
the weeds would be thick enough to
justify spraying. There is one place,
