AN INCH OF RAIN.

When the weather bureau reports that an inch of rain has fallen, it means that the amount of water that particular shower would have covered the surrounding territory to a depth of one inch, if none of it had run of or soaked into the ground.
 It means that on one acre of ground enough water to fill more than 600 barrels, of 45 gallons each, has fallen. The quantity of water weighs more than 110 tons. If the rain storm GOV cred 1000 acres, which would be a very small shower indeed, 113,000 tons of water would fall from the clouds.
 Rain storms frequently cover whole states, and often two or three or five inches of water falls in one storm In that case the weight of water that falls to the earth is simply enormous A single widespread and heavy storm might result in hundred billion tons of rain.

SHAFT SUNK ON
 READY BULLION
 GREAT FEAT
(Juneau Empire.l

One of the greatest engineering feats accomplished in the mining world was that which was completed yesterday morning when the new hsaft on the Ready Bullion mine was connected up and the upper and low CT ends meet exactly to hairs breadth. Jack Johnson, chief sur veyor of the Alaska Treadwell Min ing Company, is the man given credit for this undertaking.
 The completed shaft is 2,4SS feet in depth and is on a 70 per cent incline. The accomplishment of this feat lies in the fact that the shaft is the first known in hte world to have been sunk on an incline and come out with eXactness The work ings of the shaft were made with both underneath and above op- erations
 Over year ago the old shaft of the Ready Bullion, which was sunk on 45 per cent incline, had practi- cally accomplished it's usefulness. The ore body was pierced in another direction and at great expense was being hauled to the old shaft and hoisted At this time the company decided to sink a new one MT. Johnson was entrusted with the un- dertaking.
 On March 10, 1915, men started at the surface on the new 70 per cent incline work Men were also started from the lower levels and began working up.
 As the work progressed stopes were entered, timbered and the bor- ing again started through the solid earth. Mathematical problems were mastered. Work was dispatched with rare accuracy and yesterday morning there was wild exultation. The shaft from below and the shaft from above met exactly.
 The completion of this shaft al though an expensive undertaking will be a money saver Ore will now be hoisted to the surface through it and the old way of hauling ore, in some instances quarter of a mile, to the old shaft will now be aban- doned. The new shaft will also al low of the filling in of the old work ings

SuNFLoWERs SAVE LIFE.

The sunflower is cultivated to 6 considerable extent in central Russia where every part of the plant Is put to certain economic uses. The dis covery of the extreme lightness of the pith of the stalk has essentially in creased the commercial value of the plant. This light cellular substance is now carefully removed from the stalk and applied to good many i'm. portant uses. One of it's chief uses is the making of livesaving appliances.
 Cork with buoyancy of one to five. and reindeer's hairw with one to ten, has been used; the pith of the suntlower has a buoyancy of one to thirty-five The latter can be used advantageously in the construction of boats and life-preservers A sui ficient quantity can be worn on a person without any inconvenience. The pith of the larger sunflower stalks is used extensively as a sub- stitute for oher materials formerly employed in making moxas for eau terizing purposes.

NO EXPLANATION GIVEN.

The reason for variations in the time-keeping qualities of a well-regu- lated watch have been the subject of investigation by scientists recent ly. The popular theories that animal magnetism and bodily temperature are causes are denied by investiga- tors. Rather, different rhythms of which watch hangs are given as real causes for irregularities.
 It has been found, for example, that watch so accurately adjusted that, when worn by it's owner, it will not vary more than a second a day will gain or lose quarter of min ute in 24 hours if hung on bedpost.
