SteeIite, New Metal.

Some remarkable qualities are claim
ed for steelite, new metal which is
composed of 70 per cent of cobalt and
the remainder of chromium. 1t may
be cast and ground to a fine edge, is
impervious to rust and the action of
acids and highly flexible. AS a lathe
tool it will cut steel at the rate of 200
feet minute, speed at which steel
would ordinarily burn. Certain modi-
fications of this alloy will cut glass
and even quartz crystals.

WAR ON TREE KILLING BEETLE
Secretary of Agriculture Reports Cam
paign In Oregon.

The secretary of agriculture an
nounces that investigations conducted
in 1907 and 1910 to determine the con-
ditions on an area of more than 1,000,-
900 acres in northeastern Oregon show
ed that the killing of large number of
trees by the mountain pine beetle had
been going on in this area since 1905.
1t was estimated that 80 per cent of
the lodgepole pine on about 100000
acres and 80 per cent of the matured
lodgepole on 100000 acres of the same
area had been killed, or a total of over
100000 trees. 1t was also estimated
shat 100000 yellow pine had been killed
by this beetle and that the invasion
was moving south and southeast into
the more valuable areas of yellow pine,

Study Evils Abroad.
In entering upon its labors the bu-
reau regarded 1t of fundamental i'm
portance to make careful study Of
the social evil in this country and in
Europe, feeling that this problem, like
lny other great and difficult one, can
be inteligently approached only by
means of a thorough and complete
knowledge of all the factors involved,
as we'll as all the methods and expert
ences of other cities and countries in
dealing with 1t. Arrangements were
made, therefore, in the early part Of
last winter to secure the services of
George j. Kneeland, who had directed
the Chicago vice commission investi-
cation. Since that time Mr.. Kneeland,
with a corps of assistants, has been
making a thorough and comprehensive
survey of the conditions of vice in
New York city. This survey has cov-
cred not only houses of prostitution,
Raines law hotels, disorderly saloons,
cafes and restaurants, massage par
lors and other places where vicious
people congregate, but also the per-
sonal histories of some 1000 prosti-
tutes, and a study Of all the case rec
Ords for one year of a great majority
of the hospitals and dispensaries in
New York city, with a view to ascer-
tanning the prevalence of venereal dis
eases and their ratio to all other dis
eases. Mr.. Kneeland's report is now
in progress of preparation and will be
published within the next two months
Abraham Flexner Enlisted.
At the same time the bureau was
fortunate in securing the services of
Abraham Flexner, whose reports on
the medical schools in this country
and in Europe are so well known, to
study the social evil and the various
methods of dealing with it in the lead
ing cities of Europe. Mr.. Flexner
spent the greater part of year
abroad. making searching and ex-
haustive inquiry into the subject, and
is now working on his report, which
will be ready for publication this win
ter.
These studies are to be followed by
others In those cities in the United
States where different conditions eX-
ist or where special methods of deal
ing with the social evil have been in
troduced, the object being to become
familiar with all phases Of the subject
and all methods of handling it which
have been tried in this country and in
Europe.
Based upon all of these studies,
which will probably be published by
December of this year, it is the hope
of the bureau that there may be de-
vised a practical plan for dealing with
the social evil in New York city-a
plan which public opinion can be
brought to support
In conclusion, it cannot be too strong
ly emphasized that the spirit which
dominates the work of the bureau Is
not sensational or sentimental or hys-
terical; that it is not a spirit of crit
icism of public officials, but that it
is essentially spirit of constructive
suggestion and of deep scientific as
well as humane interest in a great
world problem.

BEES IN STING PROOF BOX
SENT BY PARCEL POST.

Humming away on the farm of
Gregory Coleman, well known
apiarist living seven miles from
Ottawa, Kan, n number of bees
were sent recently to Coleman's
son in Alhambra, Cal. The in
sects were deposited in the sting
proof parcel.
When he learned that Post
master Newman Waring of the
Ottawa postofice had received
S1,22S.90 worth of the new parcel
post stamps from Uncle Sam,
Coleman opened negotiations to
mail the bees to his son. War
ing, however, informed him that
the limited Office quarters were
inadequate to be converted into
an apiary, and advised Coleman
to wait until morning to buy his
stamps.
The eight pound shipment was
weighed, and the beekeeper in
structed that he would be assess
ed the maximum rate Of 96
cents.

cess This week the Kingston Chau-

II the crowd and interest OF this initial
day means anything. OF course, the
neighbors were on hand, but many
people from distant parts of Madison
county came with their lunches to
spend the day and not miss a single
one Of the talks given under the audi
forum tent. The initial talk Of TIC
chautauqua was given by Dr. ] w. Rain,
of Berea, KY, who spoke of the coun.
try as a place for living He was fol.
lowed by DR.. w. II. Dexter, of the Ag-
ricultural Department OF Washington,
who gave masterful presentation OF
a working program for the country
church. This address grew out Of
many conferences with about fifty real
vital country ministers who had. done
things. After luncheon on the chau-
tauqua grounds the crowd was ready
for two more able addresses. DR.. Qui
senberry, of Richmond, talked on the
rural church and was followed by DR..
Mack Collins, Of Lexington. He spoke
on the same subject. Following these
talks the big audience went into a
round table to discuss religion in farm
ing, which gave DR.. Dexter a chance to
show his hearers that soil conservation
must be a part of his religion. The
moonlight school story, as told by Cora
Wilson Stewart, was as always. de
light. This was the second Madison
County Chautauqua.
