CoRNED BEEF-A. O. C. R., Alameda What
Is the nutritive value Of corned beef as COM
pared with beef not cornedf
Authorities differ. Liebig says that
"salted meat is, so far as nutrition is
concerned. in much the same state as
meat from which good soup has been
made. The Scientific American, in an
article on nutritive values. says: After
flesh has been rubbed and sprinkled
with dry salt, a brine is produced,
amounting in bulk to a third of the
fluid contained in the raw flesh. This
brine is found to contain a large
amount of albumen, soluble phosphates,
Tactic acid, potash, creatine and crea
tinine-substances which are essential
to the constitution of the flesh. But
food is used in the body to build up
and repair tissue and to furnish energy.
Heat and muscular power are forms of
force or energy. Energy is developed
as the food is consumed in the body
and this is reckoned by fuel value.
The value of a porterhouse steak is
counted as LILO and corned beef as

etics,'' says: "Salted meats of all
kinds are drier, less digestible and
slightly less nutritious than fresh
meat
NORMAL soHooLs-M. c. L., city. When.
where and by whom were normal schools first
The first suggestion for such schools
in the United States was by Prof. Den
nison Olmstead in an Grafton delivered
at New Haven in A1S16. Governor de
Witt Clinton of New York, in message
to the legislature in 1926, recommended
seminary for teachers and repeated
the recommendation the following year.
During the subsequent 10 years the
subject was agitated widely among
prominent educators and in the press.
In 1888 Edmund Dwight of Massachu-
setts offered the sum of $4,000 for the
establishment of a normal school in
that. state, provided that the state ap-
propriated a like sum for the purpose.
This was done by the Legislators. and
the first normal school IN America was
opened at Lexington. Mass, July 3,
1889, with Cyrus Pierce as principal.
The school was subsequently removed
to Farmingham in the same state.

NuIsANcE-subscriber. City. What does the
law define a Duisance7
A nuisance in law denotes whatever
is an annoyance to ones neighbors. or,
in general sense, to the public at
large. in the exercise Of their rights
of property The whole doctrine of
nuisance is founded on the theory that
every person is entitled to the full use
and enjoyment of his property and Of
the right of passing TO and fro on the
highway without being interfered with
or impeded by others. Nuisanees are
divided into two classes, private and
public. For instance IL a person leaves
a heap of rubbish emitting nOxiOus
smells close to a neighbor's window
this may be said to be a private nui-
sance; but If the same were placed on
a public highway, or so as to annoy
divers persons equally and IN the same
manner, it then becomes a public nui-
sance.

NOTHING DOING

A comet flashed across some sky.
A distant sky we could not see;
But science used a CLASSY eye,
AS certain men whose brows were high.
Knew where that comet had to be-
For years untold the comets flight
Had been a fiery mark through space;
a billion miles from human sight,
High geared. 1T sped as auto might
If Barney Oldfeld set the pace.
The comet bore a shining tail,
A fearsome thing proclaimed as gas,
So full of poison, men turned pale,
But onward came that awful fail,
Through which the globe was billed
to pass.
The world moved on at even keel,
The sun went down with normal
glow,
The starry vault forgot to reel,
And people soon began to feel
The ad was bigger than the show,

Rebuilding of the EnsleY Furnaces

Five of the six blast furnaces at Ems ley have been rebuilt, and the sixth Is to be. This work attracts but small public attention, and yet it means a large extension of pig iron capacity at Ensley. The daily capacity of each new furnace will be about 400 tons, whereas the capacity of the old fur naces did not much exceed POO tons.
 In view of these great changes 1t will be seen that the capacity of this dis trict for producing pig iron is having, due attention. It is going on amid other changes and Is not noticed. No part of the country will have a finer battery of blast furnaces than this dis trict will have when the Tennessee company's sixth furnace at Ensley is rebuilt. Every appliance that stands approved by the best engineers will be found at Ensley, and no one will be able to point elsewhere to better or more modern furnaces.
 After all, we must make pig iron be- fore we can make steel, and this dis trict is to be congratulated upon the near completion of its six great stacks at Ensley.

Great Issues Unsettled

The English elections are almost completed, and the unionists ind theh- selves confronted by hostile laborltes and nationalists. Premier Asquith Will not have behind him a clear majority of liberals, but the unionists will be confronted by men who hate them worse than do the liberals.
 The liberals, laborites and national ists will constitute a working majority -one that will pass the budget, includ- ing it's new plan for taxation of land lords and beer; one that will bring n an Irish home rule bill.
 But the two great issues remain un- settled, namely, the power of the house of lords over bills passed by the con- mons, and the Chamberlaihite theory of protection. These are great ques- tions. and in the near future they will lead to another appeal to the country. Revolutions may not go backward in England. but they move forward there slowly and hesitatingly.
 It is impossible to say how England would vote if the issue turned alto gether upon a Chamberlain protective tariff. It seems to be a coming issue, and the tories will utilize it in the hope to escape in that way increased land taxation and in the hope to escape in that way any great change in the house of ~ The motherland has plenty of politics in sight

RagIand Is Growing.

"Ragland has just landed another im- portant small industry" said W. T. Brown of that thriving young town. who was in Birmingham yesterday.
 "The new plant is a heading mill to be built by local and Ohio capital. Work on putting in the plant will begin at once. The capital of the company IS si5.OO0 and this amount will be put into the project.
 Work on the million-dollar plant or the Atlantic and Gulf Portland Cement company at Ragland is being pushed rapidly now. All the machinery has been shipped and is being placed in position as rapidly as it arrives. It will be ready for operation early in the coming sum- mer.
 "The capacity of this plant will be 5000 barrels per day and 400 men will be em- ployed.
 "Ragland is admirably located for small manufacturing plants and every induce ment possible is being offered for the To- cation of such enterprises We have prospect now of securing very impor- tant new industry. This will be for the manufacture of steel novelties. an in dustry that is badly needed in the south.

There is no Aldrich tariff in St. John or in Montreal, nor any trusts, but in Boston the Aldrich tariff is in full bloom, and its broods of trusts are so numerous they cannot be counted.
 The truth seems to be that as soon as The Interests ascertained that the Aldrich tariff had been signed, and that Taft, Cannon and Aldrich would stand together to protect it, they decid. / ed that the time had come to exploit all consumers. and prices were marked up in non-protected articles as well as in protected articles. Aldrichism was regarded, in other words. as a signal for exploiting consumers all along the line. The marking up of articles was by no means confined to tariff-protect- ed articles. It was felt that all must stand together in order to render the footing of consumers an unqualified success.
 And it was successful beyond all precedent uy to the starting of the
