INDUSTRY OF GREAT VALUE
Most Essential Service for Humanity
Performed by Those Who Manu-
facture Fertilizers.

In the American Magazine Ida M.
Tarbell, writing another article in
her business series entitled 1.-THE
Golden Rule In Business" emphasizes
the usefulness of the fertilizer bust
ness as an industry. Following is an
extract from what she has to say:
Few businesses perform a more
essential service. Making two blades
Of grass grow where there was one,
or none, is the useful task of fer
tilizer plant. 1t serves men, not only
by what it produces, but by what it
saves. Into its mixture go sub
stances derived from otherwise use
less waste, the dregs and refuse of
great industries. Millions Of pounds
Of trimmings from factories using
leather and rubber and felt are turned
into ammoniates in its great incinera-
tors. From the pomace left from the
making of cottonseed and castor oil.
from the horns and hoofs of the
slaughter house, from the remains of
fish and meat canneries, are made
meals which the soil greedily swal-
lows to give back to US later more
abundant crops of grain and yegeta-
bles and flowers.
This waste and its transformation,

duce smells which cause an active
and painful nausea to the unaccus-
toned. When men first go to work in
the plants they are often unable to eat,
or at least to retain food, for week
or more. have never found doctor
who thought this nausea had any more
than temporary effects, like the ordi-
nary seasickness. 1t is. however, a
painful experience and should be re-
lieved, If possible"

WIN. coURTLEleH. JR., MISTAKEN
FOR SAILOR.

The lucky chance which made Will
lam Courtleigh, Jr., who plays the
lead in Meal of the Navy, the Pathe
and Balboa serial, turn his head,
saved him from a forcibIe application
of shoe leather administered by the cap
tain of one of Uncle Sans warships.
Mr.. Courtleigh was sitting on the
starboard side of the quarterback of
the battleship, which particular spot
is sacred to the use of the captain
and his invited guests. He had been
working in a number of shipboard
scenes, and feeling tired and hot made
his way to a portion of the deck that
seemed particularly attractive, and
sat down to rest. He was arrayed in
the costume of one of Uncle Sans
sailor boys, and so caught the eye of
the captain who made rush at him
to give him a lesson In discipline.
The captains boot was poised in the
air when young Courtleigh turned his
head just in time. Lucky for you,
my boy" said the captain, his anger
over, "the refreshments are on met"

KRuPP's LATEST STEEL SAFE
Made Of Metal That Has Been Proved
ImpervIous to Burglars
Attacks.

A recent number of Bavarian
trade organ, Handel und Industrie,
states that the Krupp works have just
turned out a steel safe that will put
all the burglars to shame. It is re-
ported that this famous Essen firm
has succeeded In making a steel of
such resistibility that 1t withstands
the methods of attack and the tools
at present known to burglars. At a
melting test, steel plates with sur
face Of 11.8x11S inches, and a thick
ness Of 1.57 inches, were used, which,
in the separate testines, were subject
to a different length Of time to an
oxyacetylene flame. At one Of these
tests hole of 1903 inches diameter
and 1877 inches depth was burned
into the plate, but for this not less
than ACT gallons OF acetylene and 5S4
gallons Of oxygen were used, and the
time consumed was one and one
quarter hours. In order to produce
hole large enough to admit the hand,
2,642 gallons Of oxygen and 1878 gal
Ions Of acetyiene would be needed,
while the performance of this work
would require six hours. Consequent
ly it is clear that burglars will never
succeed in melting open safe made
from the new steel. because, aside
from the great outlay of time needed
for this, they could not bring with
them the great quantities of gas, since
four steel cans weighing 164 pounds
apiece would be required. The steel
plates are very hard and cannot be
bored. consequently the holes for the
screws and rivets must be made at
the start. The new material does not
lose its hardness by annealing, and by
reason Of its tenacity can heat to
certain degree.

WHALE MEAT A GOOD FOOD
Is Being Used for Frankfurters in
Denmark, and Is Said to Be
Highly Nutritious.


Frankfurters made of whale meat
are getting to be quite the thing In
Denmark, according to Einar Tenrik-
sen, mechanical engineer of Tons
berg, Norway.
Mr.. Henriksen came TO America to
study drop forging. He was graduated
from a school of mechanical engineer
ing in Christiania a year ago, and
planned to go to Germany and then
to come to the United States to study
this particular line of engineering, but
the war kept him out of Germany.
There has been developed in Nor
way in the last few years new field
of industry in which mechanical engi-
neers are much interested" said Mr.
Hendricksen. This is the designing
and manufacture of machinery for
cutting up whales. 1t requires special
machinery, of course. and the investi-
cation of the whale in relation to the
kind Of machinery required for dis
secting 1t developed the comparative
ly new industry Of using whale meat
for frankfurters. A big business has
grown out of this. Most of the whale
meat is sent to Denmark and there
made into frankfurters. Whale meat

tritious. have frequently eaten

mysterious Zones Of silence.

A meteorological of Zurish, DIR. A. de
Queryan, directs attention to new
theory which he calls a zone of ST.
lence. He says that strong noises like
explosions or the sound of cannons,
while heard in a normal way in their
immediate neighborhood, are not heard
In distant zone even when most in
tense.
II is now known as historical fact
that Frederick the Great on August II,
1850, won the battle Of Liegnitz be-
cause the Austrian generals Daun and
Lasen asserted that they had not heard
the sound of cannons. 1t was sup
posed at that time that the statement
of the Austrian commanders was an
untruth, but it is now believed that a
zone of silence existed. Similar
phenomena have been observed recent
ly. In 1908, when the Jungfrau rail-
road was being built in Switzerland. a
fearful defamation took place. caused by
the explosion of $4,000 Kilograms of
dynamite. The noise was heard at a
distance of 80 kilometers, but not at
140 kilometers. Strange to say, how
ever, the noise was heard SO kilometers
from the last named zone.

TAKING M FROM DAMN
DOES NOT TAKE THE CURSE OFF
BY ANY MEANS.
When One roesn't Care a. Well,
Even "TIaker's Dam" Is Bad
Language to Say the
Best About II.

| A contributor to the Sun grieves
over the ignorance of those who as
sumo that "tinker's dam" is a pro
fame expression" A tinkers dam,
lsays he, was a chunk of dough or bat
tier used before the days Of muriatic
acid to keep the solder from spread
ling; and as the solder commonly did
Ispread nevertheless, the tinker's dam
twas as nearly worthless as the COM
mon expression of disesteem for it
implies. He differentiates It from the
common or garden damn and says:
rThere is no profanity about it."
But not to care a tinker's dam is
just as profane as not to care MAYER
lex damn, unbranded with ownership
by tinkers or others Taking the N"
out Of damn does not take the curse
of If it is profane not to care a
damn. It is Just as profane not to care
q whittier, jabberwock, a COOP, or any
other illegitimate and unsanctioned
word. When one stentoriously enun-
ciates his refusal to appraise the ar
ticle under discussion at the value of
a damn, he Is not swearing OF ours
ing; he is literally using bad language,
for, In the sense he means, there Is
no such noun as damn. We know
what tinker's dam is, but what Is
damn When one says he does not
care whoop, he is far more definite.
for there Is such thing as a whoop.
Whence arose the idea that not caring
a damn was being profane, and why
do persons who do not care one plume
themselves on their devilishness7
1t is not profane, but 1t has the
sound of being profane, and that is all
that is needed. An individual who
would not for the world have used
blasphemous language used to relieve
his feelings by pronouncing the name
of one Of Wagner's operas in a tone
that caused neighboring windows to
fall In, and Gotterdammerung" gave
him as much satisfaction as If he had
violated commandment. And who
was the man who always swore by
Charles G. D. Roberts and Josephine
Dodge Daskam because they sounded
SO profane? There is an excellent
Methodist in this town who severely
reprehends profanity whenever he
hears 1t, but who produces all the ef-
feet of shocking blasphemy by the i'm
Uttered emphasis he lays on the ex-
clamation, For governments sakel"
Colonel Roosevelt plumes himself on
his abstinence from profanity, but
none of the unregenerate ever got
such satisfaction out of real cuss

No, tinker's dam belongs in the COM
fort-giving galaxy of profane refugees
for the emotions; and that is the
worst you can say of the other damn.
