.HOW SHRAPNE[ SHELLS ARE MADE

pound shell there are 235. The bullets in the American shell have six fattened sides. In foreign made shells the bullets have spherical sides, an arrangement which does not allow of so close packing as the American plan.
 There are two methods of man ufacturing shrapnel shells which are commonly used at the present time. By one of these the bullets are cast in iron moulds which are split down the center to facilitate removal after casting. By the other, slugs are cut from lead wire and struck between dies in a heading machine. One hydrau lie wire press and IA heading ma chimes, which have producing capacity of $50 bullets minute, are used for the manufacture of ilattened bullets. One hydraulic press and eight heading machines, with a capacity of $50 bullets a minute are used to produce the spherical bullets.
 The lead bullets have been cast from lead wire by process which is gradually going out of use, and

which places sugar beet is grown extensively and prhtably. The idea is to grow the beet in Mat anuska where a crushing plant would be established. The crush
 ing is a process of very small ex- pense. The product, which is practically nothing but the sugar, would then be shipped out for the refining process. The richer the ground the better it is for sugar beets and in the Matanuska valley
 there is virgin soil and grows vegetables of much greater size than outside districts. Frost does not affect the plant. Sugar is now refined in the United States

about E inches in width and that the ore carried bismuth in com mercial quantities has been dem onstrated by tests, which show it to be fron2 10 to 20 per cent pure.
 The commercial value of pure bismuth is upwards of $500 to the ton. MT, Leach and associates therefore feel that, if their ledge is extensive and it's contents will be determined in the spring, they have fortune in sight.
 Bismuth IS one of the easiest metals known to mine. It melts at temperature of 268 and three tenths degrees centigrade, and can therefore be smelted with wood fires. The plan of operation of MT. Leach and his associates car ries with 1t the construction of a small shelter where the rock will be smelted, thus obyiating the ne- cessity of shipping the ore out side and paying transportation and outsio. smelting charges on 1t.
 AS far as can be learned this is the first considerable body of bis muth ore to be located in Alaska Heretofore, most of it used in the United States has been imported from the mines of Saxony and Bo- hemia, although the state of Con- necticut, has mines from which a considerable quantity of the ore has been taken. During the year 1911, approximately 80 tons of bis muth were imported into the Uni ted States at a cost of about $3II,ooo.
 Bismuth is used chiefly as a constituent of alloys and anal gams. Combined with other in gradients it is also used as medi- cine and in face powder and paints.

Aside from the poison gases and the fire bombs which the German armies have used in Flanders. the most deadly engines of modern warfare are the shrapnel shells which are used by all the armies in the present conflict. The most effective parts of the shrapnel are the lead bullets contained in the shell, which are thrown out in a conical shape when the timing fuse. which explodes the powder a; tn, base, blows the nose off the spell freeing the bullets pack ed within it. In an eighteen-pound shell the range of these bullets is approximately 25o yards.
 The lead bullets, which are generally half an inch in diane ter, are made from a number of different compositions, the most common being that of 87 1-2 parts lead and I2 1-2 parts of antimony. The actual number of lead bullets contained in a single shell varies with the different government which manufacture them. in the American hfteen-pound shell there are 252, in the British fifteen

WORDS THAT ARE AcCURSED

The Yezidees, a peculiar Tur- kish sect, are perhaps the only people in the world who consider certain letters, words and phrases as being cursed and the people who pronounces them a worthy subject for immediate destruc- ton.
 They attach no value to human life, and to these ordinary dangers are added those arising from the embarrassing etiquette of con- versational intercourse with them for if any one inadvertentl. speaks the word devil. " Satan" or anything with the same mean ing he commits a mortal offense, and to cut off his head is a God pleasing act, a sacred duty of the Yezidee, the fulhllment of which will insure him a place in para disc.
 In like manner several let ters are wholly banished from their language chiefly those which contain the sound of shun. The Arabian word pallet" Thou art damned" is also ex- punged because it is believed by the Yezidees to have been the word uttered by God when the fallen angels were thrown into hell.
 These and similar words and phrases are set aside and com binations which do not belong to any language. used instead London Spectator.

The movement has already been inaugurated to test the Matanus- ka valley for the purpose of prov ing if it cannot be made one ot the greatest sugar beet districts of the world. The idea originated with J A. Bruner of this city who knows the subject thoroughly and who has come to the conclusion after looking into the facts about the valley that there is every req son to believe that a tremendous industry can be created in that line up there.

a newer and more rapid process has taken it's place. In the meth cd used almost exclusively at present the molten lead is poured into a cylinder from which it is pushed out through a die by means of a plunger, the metal hay ing time to settle before it is forced through the press.
 The bullets are shaken togeth- CT in a tumbling machine or bar rel for an hour, the action of one against another removing all un- eveness on the sides. A careful watch is kept over the tumbling operation, as t is necessary to see
 ot the bullets conform to a cer- tain standard of weight. A var ation of one dram to pound oi bullets is allowed, Al bullets a pound being the accepted stand ard. Ten pounds of lead rod pro- duce six and a half pounds of bullets.-New York Times

that comes from the Sandwich Islands and this is taken to show that the expense is not prohibitive in shipping from here. Mir. Bruner has figured that the crushed pro- duct could be shipped outside for a quarter of a cent a pound if the quantity were large enough. The farmers in the Matanuska will be supplied with the seeds and tests will be made in different kinds of ground.
