MAGIC OF A MAGNET.
Makes Chain Rigid Enough For a
Man TO Climb Il.


A Berlin correspondent of the Scien.
tifc American describes IN interesting
experiment that was made at the works
of one OF The large German manufic-
turing firms with one Of their lifting
magnets
A chain fastened to the ground and
carrying an iron ball NJ Its free end,
was raised 10 vertical position by
the approach Of the great lifting mag
net suspended from II crane
The attraction of the magnet was so
strong that the chain remained in a
perfectly vertical position. A grown
up workman climbed un the chain
without disturbing its rigldlty In the
least The chain seemed to float IN air,
The magnetic pull on the hail was
greater than the gravitatlonal pull on
the man,
This remarkable experiment shows
the enormous power Of attraction ex-
erted by the lifting magnets that are
used In iron and steel works To carry
about iron material of every daserip-
ton The magnets enable the opera
tor To seize iron material ut any point
desired and convey It 10 any other
point within the range OF. The crane,
Incidentally the use Of lifting magnets
has greatly diminished the risk OF acct

YORK IMPERIALS FAILING

Winchester, Va, June 2.-The ap-
pie growers of Frederick and some
of the other apple-producing counties
of the Shenandoah valley are very
much concerned over the failure of
the York Imperial apple trees to
properly set their fruit. The York
Imperial, which is the principal COM
mercial variety of this immediate
section, bloomed heavily this spring,
and as by reason of the fact that
late frost last year greatly reduced
the crop. the fruit growers had ev-
cry reason to expect ian unusually
large crop this fall.
a thorough investigation has been
made during the past week in every
district of Frederick county, and il
was stated here today that the fail
ure of the apples to mature properly
seems to be confined principally to
the York lmperials. and to smaller
degree to the Staymen Winesaps and
the Black Twlgs. .t.4tt L
The Ben Davis and Jonathan varie-
ties have set splendidly, and bum
per crop of these varieties is now eN-
pected, save on those trees which
bore heavily last year. The crop of
Bens and Jonathans was not, how
ever, very large in 1913
1t is very difficult. the investiga-
tor says, to explain Just why
the crop, vet as the trees have been
relieved of number of their apples
the quality of those remaining will
be very fine.
Local growers have been advised
by the experts of the United States
agricultural department that the
time for spraying for the second
Goblin moth will be the first of
June for the Valley of Virginia.
