An Unhappy Critic.

From the shadow of the union
station at White River junction,
that monument of inefliciency and
discomfort, comes a note of distress
and amazement through the columns
of the Landmark, concerning the
shortcomings of the late assembly at
Montpelier and it's railroad and other
legislation appertaining to trans
portation. The Landmark takes a
whack at Woodstock and the Ottau-
quechee valley folks who upset the
Champlain Realty company's attempt
to acquire the river for logging pur-
poses, and notes with pain the
alleged inconsistency =" glaring,
the neighbor says-of the lawmakers
in passing the Fifteen-Mile Falls
bill, permitting the building of a big
dam across the Connecticut river,
after turning down the paper COM
pany's petition.
In the Fifteen Miles Falls case, as
the Age understands it, the local
people were almost unanimously in
favor of building the dam as some
thing that would accrue to the inter-
est of all In the Ottauquechee mat
ter the paper company had the active
and effective opposition of property
owners along the river and citizens
generally, and the effort to secure
the right of eminent domain, or what
amounted to that, for the benefit of
private interests solely, failed.
But what really happened in the
law making line at Montpelier is as
nothing compared to what might
have come to pass, and the Landmark
still has it's apprehensions and its
flag at half-mast. This was the
att empt of the Boston & Maine rail
road to throttle" the Central YER
mont, which by the way has run the
Vermont machine to suit itself for a
generation or two. 1t has again won
temporary victory in defiance of
the protests of most of the people of
the Connecticut valley. The Boston
& Maine is prevented from building
an independent line in Vermont
from coming into the state at Brat
tlehoro on it's own iron though it
could have entered without loss of
land or privileges to the Central
Vermont. The latter claimed that
competition was being stiAed, while
the very opposite was the case

The HartIand Nature Club.

A representative number of the
members of the Hartland Nature
Club met at the Village room Satur-
day, Feb. II, Mr.. Underwood pre-
siding in the absence OF the presi-
dent.
Under the head of miscellaneous
business, il was voted to accept an
offer of plant exchange with the
Boston Society of Natural History
made to Miss Darling. A list Of
birds, seen by the Hartland Nature
Club members durin 1910, and
printed in Z. J, Maynard's "Rec-
ords," was distributed to those who
had subscribed tor it.
Mrs. Johnston, Of the Fieldsville
school, submitted drawings in
Nature study to the committee on
birds and plants, and the matter of
observing Aibor Day again was
brought mp, but it's discussion was
postponed until the March meeting.
Miss Ethel Jackson, teacher in the
Weed school, sent an especially fine
collection of birds nests made by the
pupils.
Among birds reported were the
northern shrike, purple finch, and
f1ocks of pine siskins and gold
finches.
Sixty-three plants, new to Hart
land, exhibited at the Vermont
Club in Burlington, were deposited
with the local club and some Hart
land and Woodstock photographs
shown at Burlington were passed
around. Mrs. James b. Miller gave
several interesting astronomical
notes.
Mr.. Underwood showed the COL
lection of moths and explained the
methods OF studying them to advan-
age. These moths were of the beau
t'liul collection, all in Denton mounts,
that was given two years ago by
Mrs. Hurd of "Fairview." The
next meeting will be held March II.

The Wood In = sbin,s Deck.

With the laying of the keel of the
Europa. the biggest ship in the world,
now under construction, comes the
news from abroad that the gross ton
mage of all the ships flying the Ham
burg American line flag has passed the
100000 ton mark. or, to be correct,
1922, 452 tons. For years the Ham
burg American line has held the ton
mage record for ships sailing under
one house flag. Some idea of the enor-
nous. size of the Europa may be gath

given for 100000 feet of Oregon fir
to be used for the decks alone. For

near Portland. Ore. before being ship

ed of no value. The forests which

THERMOMETERS TUBES.
To Be Accurate They Must Be Abso-
luteIy Without Flaws.


In making accurate thermome-
tiers the glass tubing is first drawn
out to great lengths. These lengths
are then cut into pieces about four
feet long, known as canes. These
are carefully examined for flaws.
Not more than four or five out of a
hundred of these canes are found
perfect. The rest are destroyed,
and that is why thoroughly accu-
rate thermometers cost so much.
The bore of thermometer is finer
than the diameter of hair, but it
looks much larger than it really is
on account of the magnifying lens
front of the tube. To make the
bulb one end of this slender hollow
glass rod is heated in blowpipe
and is formed by expanding the
molten glass by blowing through
the open end of the tube.
The size of the bore determines
the capacity of the bulb. The rule
is that the capacity of the latter
must be 1000 times as great as that
of the former. Getting the mercury
into the bulb is the next process
and is comparatively simple. The
bulb is heated so as to expand the
air it contains and then inverted
with the end of the tube in a dish
of mercury. As the expanded air
cools it contracts, forms partial
vacuum, and the mercury is drawn
into the tube. The operation is con
tinued until the tube and the bulb
are filed to the proper point. Then
the tube is roasted in hot sand to
expel every particle of moisture.
When it has thoroughly cooled the
bulb is plunged into cracked ice to
drive the mercury to a low point,
and then the finishing of the tube
begins by blowing fame across the
point near the top where it is de-
sired to cut it off. 1t is drawn out
very thin, but minute hole is left
in the center. Then the bulb is
heated again until the mercury fills
the tube and drop of it is forced
out, thus displacing all the air orig
inally in the tube and the bulb. The
top is then sealed and the hook
drawn which secures the bulb to the
scale.
Making thermometer is all hand
work. They have never been able
to make them by machinery. One
of the largest manufacturers Of
Thermometers in America said re-
Gently: eff all thermometer tubes
could be made with the same size
bore, If all could be made with the
same capacity bulb, if all could be
made without taking into account
the personal equation of the work
and then only, could
the operation of thermometer man
ufacture be made mechanical
