where federal prisoners are confined
are wholly unsuitable for the detention

DRILLING With Diamonds.

A diamond bit for rock drilling is
quite an expensive article. It's value,
however, will undergo fluctuations, de.
pendent upon the price OF the dia.
monds. Perhaps $500 is a fair value
for a bit. The diamond used is ex.
ceedingly hard harder than those
usually used as jewelry. Their carat
price is considerable, averaging. say.
$50 a carat The diamonds used will
weigh from one TO two carats, so that
eight have a value ranging from $3.50
to $500, on the average. The loss OF
a bit means so many diamonds gone
and may lead to difficulty with the
hole. The diamond is not tough, but
brittle. Ii will withstand heavy
pressure # applied evenly and with.
out shock. It can readily be seen that
drilling through seamy rock may be-
come quite unfavorable. II there is
much quartz present the abrasion may
become excessive. Under ordinary
conditions. however. the wear on the
diamonds, while considerable, is by
no means prohi2itive.-Cassier's Mag
