Guns and PIowshares.

If the Krupp gun factory in Germany
were suddenly changed into a plant for
the manufacture of agricultural imple-
ments. 1t could turn out enough plow-
shares in one day to last the entire
United States for fifty years. The
wealth which is required to operate this
great cannon factory for six days If ap-
piled to the manufacture of grain bind
ers would make enough binders to sup
ply every wheat grower in the United

Boys Eat More Than Men.

There is singular dearth of statis-
tics pertaining to the actual food intake
and consequent dietary habits Of young
boys and girls. Indeed, both the physi-
ology and pathology Of the adolescent
period offer abundant opportunity for
the extension Of knowledge.
recent investigation by Gephart (of
the Russell Sage Institute Of Patholo-
gy) affords an insight into the actual
amounts of nourishment taken by more
than 900 boys in one Of the largest pri-
vate boarding schools in the United
States. The total animal supply for
such an institution containing 1855 boys
was computed as follows, in metric

Slab Of Sandstone in Ohio River IL
Said to Be Seventy-Five Million
Years Old.

A slab of sandstone stands on edge in
the bed of an Ohio stream. 1t has Pc
culiar markings made in times past by
ripples when the stone was soft sand.
The layer of rock from which this slab
was broken extends far back into the
bank of the stream. and comes to light
in quarry mile distant. In fact.
when the ripple marks were formed it
was the soft sand Of an ocean shore
In short, the pictured slab is piece Of
what biologists call Berea sandstone,
formed from ancient sediments at least
100000 years ago. To-day the Berea
sandstone beds are Of importance, be-
cause great quantities Of Oil and gas are
found in them.-Popular Science Month
