A New Iron Industry Made Possible
Ry Varsity

BY Varsity
An important new industry ap-
pears to be a possibility through dis
coveries made in the Chemical Engi-
neering Department of the Universe
ty of Wisconsin, A method has been
found for producing iron of a re-
markably high purity by an electrical
method of refining. This method has
been worked out thoroughly for
period of seven or eight years in an
experimental stage. Nearly ten tons
of the material have been produced
and over one thousand alloys have
been made from it. Tests on all Of
these alloys show that some of them
have unusual and valuable proper
ties, such as extreme strength. great
hardness and high magnetic qualities,
and that they are suitable for such
uses as automobile parts where great
strength is required, for razor blades
and cutting tools, and for the manu-
facture of dynamos and transform
ers.
These properties are dependent up
on the high purity of the iron EN-
ployed, and ordinary grades of iron
and steel are influenced by various
small amounts Of impurities which
are eliminated in this electrolytic re-
filming process.
While the principal use of this
pure iron appears to be as a base
for the manufacture of alloys other
important uses are found for it. In
the Department of Pharmacy it has
been discovered that iron compounds
of exceedingly high chemical purity
can be made from it. 1t is estimated
that at least fifty tons of electroly-
tic iron can be used each year for
the production OF compounds used in
medicinal and pharmaceutical pur.
poses. Another one of the various
uses is for the rapid generation of
pure hydrogen, gas which has var
ious industrial applications including
the initiation of balloons.
Prof. c. F. Burgess, under whom
this work has been carried out, esti-
mates that the electrolytic refining
of iron ought not to exceed a cost
of SO a ton, which with the cost of
500 a ton for raw material make to-
tai cost as low as that for many
grades of commercial material Of far
lower purity.

YOUR CRAY HAIRS
QUICKLY VANISH
A Harmless Remedy Made
from Garden Sage, Restores
Color to Gray Hair.

A feeling of sadness accompanies the
discovery of the first gray hairs which
unfortunately are looked upon as heralds
of advancing age. Gray hair, however
handsome It may be, makes a person
look old. We all know the advantages
of being young. Aside from the good
impression a youthful appearance makes
on others, simply knowing that you are
looking fit" gives one courage to
undertake and accomplish things. So
why suffer the handicap of looking old
on account of gray hairs, when a simple
remedy will give your hair youthful
color and beauty in a few days time
Most people know that common gar
den sage acts as a color restorer and
scalp tonic as well. Our grandmothers
used Sage Tea" for Keeping their
hair dark, soft and luxuriant. In
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Hair Remedy
We have an ideal preparation Of Sage,
combined with Sulphur and other valua-
BILE remedies for dandruff, itching scalp
and thin, weak hair that is split at the
ends or constantly coming out. A few
applications of this valuable remedy
will bring back the color, and in short
ume 1t will remove every trace of dam
drutf and greatly improve the growth
and appearance of the hair.

HAYDEN REPORTS
0NST. LOUIS MEET

Superintendent H. B. Hayden held
a general meeting of all the teachers
OF the city schools at the close of the
afternoon session yesterday TO make
a report on the convention which he
attended in ST. Louis last week, the
annual meeting of the national de-
partment of superintendent.
Mr.. Hayden said in part: ''The pur-
rose of the department is to bring
together the professional heads of
city and county schools, the profess
sors and instructors in university and
normal schools, for the discussion of
the larger problems of school organ
iZation and administration. The adj
dresses and discussions are presented
by the greatest leaders in public
school education in the United
States.
THE attendance was probably the
largest in the history of the depart
ment, nearly 1000 being in attend
ance. This number included the
United States commissioner of edu-
cation and eight others from Wash
ington, d. c.; state, city and county
superintendent; high and normal
school principals; heads of colleges
and universities and other education
al workers.
"The program was a particularly
strong and practical one and was ar
ranged by superintendent c. z. Chad
sey of Denver, president of the de-
partment 1t was his idea to per-
nit nothing on the program but emf
nently practical topics and to appoint
as speakers only such men as have
had personal and successful exper-
fence in connection with educational
work

London. March PARLIAMENT isn't
going to pass a minimum wage law
without being compelled TO surmount
a vast number of obstacles. One of
the chief of them is the opposition of
the coal owners of the nation.
With the million and more miners
on strike, with need and actual starva-
ton threatening in many homes, with
the business of the country so affected
that a state of complete commercial
paralysis is looked for unless the
strike is ended. and ended quickly, po-
litical leaders are a unit in declaring
the minimum wage law demanded by
the miners is the only thing that will
afford immediate and certain relief.
/. A. Thomas. a South Wales opera
tor who has taken a prominent part
in the owners councils, brands the
proposed law as revolutionary.
NO organization OF employers" he
said, "can fight effectually against an
act of parliament. and II the govern
ment exercises this force we shall be

Nobody can suppose for a moment
that the policy or principle will stop
there. Within a very short period we
shall have every other industry claim
ing to be similarly treated
The unrest in South Wales is due
TO a persistent and advanced social
istic propaganda, and not really to
legitimate and natural demand for bet
ter wage conditions. Wages in the
South Wales coal field are the high
est in the cid world"
Watts Morgan, one of the miners
representatives in the conferences held
thus far, thus explains the situation:
The government has asked the
miners representatives, to justify the
rates they put forward as a minimum
wage. We are quite willing TO do that,
but we cannot negotiate with any
view to a possible reduction of those
rates
I'VE are prepared to prove the rea-
sonableneSs of our claims. We hold
That a certain minimum is necessary
/ to keep the miner and his family in
comfort, and that if he renders service
he is entitled to an income necessary
to that end. We get on dangerous
ground when we have not only TO
prove that the minimum rates are rea-
sonable, but that it is possible for in
dustry to afford them in any given
| circumstances.
I'VE have already reduced the fig.
