Japan's Factory Law.

Operation under the new factory
law in Japan, which was to have
gone into effect on June 1, has been
postponed for two months by order
of the privy council in order that the
regulations may be revised. These,
it is pointed out, did not sufficiently
guard the interests of the workers
and would result in confusion if at
once enforced. To the working
people of the United States the
hours of labor permitted under the
new law will meen extraordinary long,
but it must be remembered that fac
tory work is young in Japan and that
the working hours are founded on
the hours voluntarily devoted TO
work by the people on the farms or in
their own workshops-twelye. to six
teen hours day. The most import
ant thing is the forbidding of child
work under 10 years and limiting the
hours of girls under 10. 1t is, on the
whole, an advance on conditions as
they have been and will open the way
to further concessions to labor.

Linen Growing scarcer.

Summing up the linen situation re-
Gently, one of the principal importers
to this market spoke this way: "Busi-
ness is as active as it ever is at this
time of the year, when everyone is
trying to reduce stocks as far as pos
sible before taking inventory, and or
ders are placed only for goods that are
really needed to meet some special de-
mand or to fill out broken line. Flax
continues to get scarcer and dearer as
time goes on, and linens of all kinds
are also getting scarcer and dearer.
This will continue, at least until the
war ends. In many cases merchandise
is still being let out in this market be-
low the cost of replacement, and this
will be done as long as present meth
DDS of averaging up buying and sell
ing prices are retained" York

New Bud Killer.

A new piece of agricultural appa-
ratus has been developed for the pur-
pose Of combating the destructive bugs
and undesirable vegetable growths by
an application of steam to the soil
penetrating some distance below the
surface. The machine carries a steam
generating plant and moves over the
surface on large drum, the periphery
of which is staggered with protruding
stream outlets in the shape of blades
or spines. AS the apparatus is drawn
over the ground the spines imbed them
selves in the soil and while in this po-
sition the steam is released and pene-
trates the soil for some distance
around the outlet, killing the worms,
larvae and bugs and the undesirable
crop of weeds which seed themselves
from one season to another.

Hearing Your Men at Work.

The manager of a machine shop or
factory can know how much work is
being done at benches by mechanics
or by power-driven machines or tools
by means of microphones or telephone
transmitters connected with the work
ing apparatus, says Popular Science.
By becoming familiar with the vibra-
tons of the different machines he can
tell at any given moment just how
fast Pat is working the lathe, or how
industriously Mike is operating the
milling machine on one of his blue
Mondays. In addition to this he can
tell at a simple turn of the switch if
the machines are running at normal
speed and smoothly and properly, as
they should.

To Clean Paintbrushes.

No matter how hard a paintbrush
has become, it can be made as soft and
clean as new by simply boiling in wa
ter into which has been put little
I've. A little washing powder or soap
will do, but it will take longer The
brush should be placed on end and the
boiling water should be no deeper than
the length of bristles, as the boiling
suds will injure the handle. Turpen-
tine will clean paintbrushes, but noe
after they have become hard.

Long ct Gainesville Friday, the Sun
says: 1T has been demonstrated be-
yond question that legal hanging
will draw bigger crowd than a
church revival, political meeting, or
even barbecue. Men will go many
miles in order to see some poor devil,
whose atrocious crime has put him un-

end OF a rope, struggle and die, when
they would not walk two blocks to
learn the way of eternal life. Why is
this? ?"

They were defeated simply because
