crops are unquestionably from one to two weeks late, but it is too early to form any positive opinion upon the outcome, because a few days of more seasonable conditions might quickly compensate for existing drawbacks. The rise in the prices of meat and grain is. however, an unwelcome de- velopment. It will not soothe social and political discontent. As has been repeatedly stated in these alvices, the one essential thing to continued pros perity in the United States is a good harvest Gus agricultural output is to- tally inadequate to meet the demands of rapid growth in population. This has vastly more to do with the in creased cost of living than any aug mentation in the gold supply. Our farmers should get busy and increase their output. As an occupation, farm ing never offered such attractions in the form of good profits and increased comforts as it offers today. Telephones rural delivery, automobiles, etc. have made the farmers life much happier one than was the case twenty-fi years ago.
 More frequent fluctuations may be expected in the market during the next
 few weeks. A very considerable and too rapid rise has taken place in some of the speculative issues, which iIi- duced considerable realizing. Unfav- orable developments connected with the coal and railroad labor troubles caused interpreter weakness on Friday and caused general profit taking. At
 the same time there was disposition
 to take the recent changes in the poll
 tical situation more seriously, and
 these two circumstances combined to effect material change in stock mark
 ct sentiment. This passing of stocks from strong into weaker hands will of course impair the strength of the gen eraI market. The big leaders have the situation well in hand. so they arc 1 likely to use their best efforts to pre- vent any serious break, but operations in speculative issues should henceforth be conducted with more discrimination.

Titanic now lies This depth is given as 200O fathoms, which is consider ably over two miles, and the pres sure amounts to three-quarters of a million pounds per square foot.
 It is only natural to suppose that under such pressure the density of the water would be increased; but laboratory experiments have shown that it is almost impossible to com press water. Indeed, for a long time it was thought that water was ab- solutely incOmDressible; but by the use of more sensitive measuring in struments it has been found that at e depth of mile the density of sea water is only 1-130 greater than at the surface However, for all pr8c- tical purposes we may consider that d given volume of water. is not ma teriaHy reduced in dimensions by pressure.
 With this clearly in mind it is very evident that an object that would not float at the surface of the sea could not float at any intermediate point, but must surely sink to the bottom; for it could not dispIace q greater weight of water at the bottom than at the top, even though the water in the first case was under much higher pressure. As q matter of fact, any air filled chambers or compressible matter in the vessel would be crushed in by the enormous pressure of the water so that the displacement of the wreck would be growing less as ii went down and it would be falling through the water at a corresponding acceleration We must also remember that even steel is more compressible than water, and consequently d solid block of this material would actually weigh more at the bottom of the sea than at the top.
