'suIphur Mined bv Pumpino.

The mining of sulphur in Louisiana Is an interesting process, The sulphur deposit, situated near Lake Charles, 1 lies about 40 feet beneath the surface
 and is about 100 feet thick Beds of qlicksand oVerlying the sulphur sender
 the sinking of shafts impossible, and the sulphur is therefore pumped to the l surface
 A well is driven through the numer-
 ous strata to the sulphur impregnated ! beds i'll much the same manner as is
 usual i'll sinking wells for oil and gas.
 In each well there are placed con- centrically four lines of pipe. having diamsters ranging from ten inches to one inch, Superheated water and hot
 air are forced down the pipes and the spaces between them to melt the sul- phur and to bring it to the surface. The hot water flows down between the two outer pipes, which are respec-
 lively ten inches and six inches in ! diameter, and passes into the sulphur
 bearing mass, melting the sulphur. The quantity of sulphur melted and the range of action of the water depend on the temperature of the water and on the pressure at which it is supplied. The heavy melted sulphur runs back | into the stump around the bottom of the well pipe which 1t enters through holes provided for this purpose
 Hot compressed air is forced down through the smallest or one inch pipe. and at the bottom of the well mixes with the melted sulphur and forms an aerated mass sufficiently low in specific gravity to allow the water pressure to elevate the melted sulphur to the sur- i face, where it Is discharged into large rectangular Vats, constructed of rough planklng. The dimensions of the vats vary somewhat but they are made as large as s50x250x40 feet, and some ef them are so arranged that railroad ! trains can pass between them. After
 the sulphur has cooled and solidihed It Is regularly mined the same as if it
 were a natural deposit
 Seven or eight year ago the imports of Sielllan sulphur amounted to more than 100000 long tons. With the growth of the sulphur industry in Louisiana the imports of Sicillan sul- 1 phur in the United States have become 1 almost negligible quantity, the entire | imports from Italy for 1910 being but 10,704 tons. The produetien of sulphur l In the United States for 1910 was g55.- | 5S4 tons, valued st S4606,11s, the great l bulk of which came from Louisiana.

Pipe Versus Cigarette.

Although combustion in the cigarette is more complete than in the pipe or cigar, nevertheless cigarette smoke contains injurious substances other than nicotine, among which are men toned aldehydes, including aePylaide- hyde, or acrolein, class of bodies noted for their intense irritating eff fleets. Although pipe mixtures yield a large amount of nicotine to the smoke, they also yield very large proportion of basic substances, includ- ing ammonia. and it Is surmised that these bases prevent the formation of the irritating compounds often found in cigarette smoke.
 "On the whole, it appears from these investigations that the cigar represents the least injurious form in which to- bacco may be smoked, a fact which coincides exactly with popular ex- perience. The choice of q cigar IS. however. not only q matter of taste and extent of purse, but also of scien tific discrimination While British cigar containing 1.24 per cent of nico tine yields s per cent, of this tc the smoke, the Havana cigar, containing 6.64 per cent, of nicotine, liberates only 3l per cent, of this,
 Thus science acknowledges the su- premaey of the Havana cigar in the domain of tobacco. co."--Medical Record.

Spare The Flicker.

Wherever the flicker is found, says a leaf1et of the National committee of Audubon societies, it has so impressed itself upon it's human neighbors that it has been given names expressing characters or individual traits of the bird, one compiler having collected no less than 124 of these yernacular names. While the flicker is to oer- tain extent frugivorous in it's food habits, yet by far the larger percent age of it's yearly food is insects Of these, ants, (Fornicidae) form the principal diet This apparently has been the case for so long a period that the tongue of the flicker has become specialized in order that its favorite food may be obtained with the least trouble. If the flicker has no other valuable economic quality it would de- serve protection because 1t is the en- emy of the ant family, 50 per cent. of its food for the year being of these in- sect pests Ants, besides being wood borers, care for and perpetuate plant lice. or aphids, which infest and are Very destructive to vegetation in all parts of the country to the very serious loss of the agricultural interests.
