STATE AND NATION

Laboring under the supposition that
eternal vigilance is the price Of sue
cess In any campaign, the Agricul'
tural college has issued another edict
against the tobacco user. Although
there are few such at the college
compared with many institutions, the
purpose is to reduce even these. The
week just closed has been devoted
quite largely to anti.cigarette and mic.
otine talks by various members of
the faculty. The president began
the work Tuesday morning by ex.
pressing the views of the admins
tration on the subject, maintaining
that the college was not for the user
of tobacco, that 1t was against the
rules to use tobacco in any form on
college property. DR.. Titus followed
with a discussion of some of the bad
effects of the habit from the stand
point of habit formation and the in
fluence upon mentality. DR.. Il. G.
Peterson on Thursday, discussed the
physiological influence of nicotine on
the human body, establishing espe'
cially the point that its continued use
frequently resulted In digestive troub'
les, lung troubles, nervous disorders
and frequently in sight defects Of a
most alarming nature.
The Hon. John Sharp Of the board
of trustees added a word Thursday to
the effect that the influence of tobac
CO was thoroughly bad All in all
the week has been one OF vigorous
trade against this insidious foe Of
the human race.
Prominent among the statements
quoted during the week are those o.
President Eliot of Harvard university
that during his entire career he ha,
never subjected his body to the IN

The closing address was delivered
by DR.. +. S. Harris OF the Agricul-

that Utah has about thirty varieties OF

be proper grading of these wheats

expressed hope that the hard

are all linked together, and who
should unite in the effort to build up

Why Steel In Concrete Won't Rust.
In these days of steel and concrete
construction work on skyscraper build
ings, structural engineers are fire.
quently asked what the fate of the
buildings will be when the steel
beams have rusted away. The best
answer to that is found In the report
Of the surveyor of st. PauPs cathed-
raj London, who recently caused an
opening to be made In the concrete OF
the dome in order that the condition
of the great chain which binds 1t at
Its base might be disclosed.
This chain has been imbedded In
concrete for more than 200 years, and
1t was found to be as bright and per-
feet as when new The reason why
steel encased in concrete is prevented
from rusting is that the oxide of iron
chemically combines with the cement,
forming a covering of ferrite of caleb
UNI, which is a good protective agent.

Blame Hard Water for Bad Tea.


A German scientist who has been
conducting a series of experiments
for the purpose OF determining the
relative values of hard and soft water
or cooking purposes has discovered
that water is very often to blame
when the tea, coffee or soup doesn't
taste just right.
For instance, II cocoa Is made OF
soft water a pleasant and rich drink
obtained which after short boiling
deposits the cocoa powder Even II
the cocoa Is made into a paste with
a little water and the cup then filed
with hot water the largest part of the
powder will precipitate and the bev-
erage will still be rich and pleasant.
IL, however, hard water Is used,
flakes will at once appear and the oil
In the cocoa will be seen floating on
the surface of the drink. The flakes
will soon settle and the beverage is
far less tasty than the one obtained
with soft water Similar observations
may be noticed In the preparation or
soups or oatmeal, which remain fiaky
even after long boiling. In the prepa-
ration of tea the hard water causes
the formation of thin film.

Her PersonaI plate.

A young girl who has a great many
valuable small belongings and never
loses any of them, says that 1t Is
solely because of her plan of marking
everything distinctly with her full
name and town and country address.
For her parasols and umbrellas she
has set of small silver plates of OBJ
long shape and with screw equipped
ends, which are readily detached from
a handle and put upon another one.
Her golf sticks, tennis racquets, hand
luggage and the valuable collars which
her dogs wear are marked in the
same manner and on all OF her toilet
articles she has plate markings which
cannot be obliterated or easily
wrenched of.
The first cost of these plates was
not very great, although all are of
solid silver, and they were accumu-
lated so gradually that the money was
not missed from her allowance.
