sULPHURIc ACID IN 1916

Inc production of s~ulphuric acid
in the United States in 1916 was
much greater than in 1915. The es-
umated production of sulphuric acid
OF strengths of so, 60 and &C. de-
grees in 1916, expressed in terms of
5o degrees acid, is 4,475,OOo tons
an estimated increase over the bro.
auction in 1915 of 5000 tons. or
more than 10 per cent. The increase
was distributed about equally be-
tween acids of strengths of so and 60
degrees. as there was a small de-
crease in the production Of acid of
strength of sc degrees.
The most notable feature in the
sulphui1c acid industry was the enor-
nous increase in the production of
ACIDS OF strengths greater than sc
degrees. The estimate shows a pro-
duction of these stronger acids of
over a million ton as against a pro
duction Of less than zoe, 900 tons in
1918. 1t is not feasible to express
tne amount of these higher acids in
terms of SO degrees acid; therefore
the total given for them is in addition
to the total given for acids of
strengths of &C degrees or less.
Inc estimated output of acids of
strengths Of GO and &C degrees in.
ciudeS ~by-product acid produced at
copper and zinc sm~elters. The out
put or acid SO produced in 1916. ex-
pressed as SO degrees acid, amounted
to nearly 100000 tons, or practically
the same as in 1915. However. ov-
er 10000 tons of acid of higher
strengths was produced at these smell
tiers. Il quantity nearly double that
produced in 1915.
Inc market conditions throughout
the country are reported to have been
on the whole better than in 1915, and
the value of the product will prob
ably be somewhat higher than it was
even during taht year of high prices.
The estimates are based on returns
received by Philip S. Smith, of the
United States Geological Survey.
Department of the Interior, from
more than 95 per cent of the pro-
ducers and on estimates Of the out
puts OF the rest. 1t is believed that
the figures are reasonable and that
they will approximate very closely
the hnal figures, which will be made
up when the complete returns are re-
ceived.

TERRAcINc SEASON NOW
ON IN MISSISSIPPI

Don't forget to terrace the hill
side fields while preparing for a bum
per 1917 crop. On three-fourths of
the hill land of Mississippi ~terracing
Is essential to the maintenance of fer
tility and the proper cultivation of
the soil.
Where the fall is no more than
two feet for every 100 feet of land.
erosion may in many cases be taken
care Of by deep blowing, but where it
exceeds three feet the water needs
10 be taken care of in some other
way. When the fall is more than
fifteen feet it is a good plan to sod
the soil with Bermuda and turn it to
pasture" j. w. Carpenter, Agri-
cultural Engineer of the Mississippi
A. & M. College, who is just now put
ting on a series Of t~erracing demon
STATIONS, is offering these suggestions
to the farmers in the hill sections of
the state. According to Mr.. Carpen-
ter, the advantages Of broad terraces
over hillside bitches are as follows:
1. The field is not cut up into small
patches.
2. There are no unsightly ditch
banks to grow weeds and grass.
3. The field may be worked more
easily and in less time.
4. There is no lost ground.
Terraces may be constructed at
very small cost by the use of the
~" drag and the wooden terrace
level, both of which may be made at
home at a cost of two OF three dol
lars by following the complete plans
for the construction of these tools,
which with instructions for their use
may be obtained free by writing the

THE ORCHARD IN JANUARY

Set your trees this month. Later
settings are not usually as success
full as those made during December
or January.
Order your trees direct from some
reliable nurseryman. You will find
the advertisements Of these nurseries
in your farm papers. Write for thei
catalogS and order from them.
Before setting The trees cut off all
the bruised or broken roots and those
that have dried out and are dead.
Shorten al the large roots an inch
or so.
In setting be sure to get all the
roots Strengthened out and the dirt
packed well around them. Tramp
the dirst just as solid as possible with
your feet. leaving only three or foul
inches of loose soil on top.
If the tree is Il straight whip with
no branches. cut il of rs to Is inches
above the ground. If the tree is
branched. cut out the main stem so
as to leave 3 or 4 side branches. This
should leave IA stem not more than
, feet tall.
Pruning can he done any time be
fore the trees begin growth in the
spring. Now is the best time. This
is a job that must be done every year
and not once in > or 6 years.
Spraying is necessary for success
full fruit growing. Secure the spray
outfit now. and get enough OF the
chemicals necessary TO do the spray
ing for the coming season. Pay
enough to get a good outfit and good
chemicals. An outfit with IAN air
compression chamber is best as ii
puts the spray liquid on the trees
with greater force.
Spray for the San Jose Scale as
coon AS possible. One gallon of the
lime sulphur solution TO
0ine gallons of water is the proper
strength. Be sure that the spray

date of Herod's death, and taking in
TO consideration the events that fol-
lowed the birth Of Jesus, such as the
coming of the Magi. the fight into

GOVERNMENT URGED TO
 INSURE OUR AVIATORS

The National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics authorizes the foll- owing:
 TheNational Advisory Committee for Aeronautics has addressed letters to the Secretary of War, the Navy, and the Treasury, and to the chairman of the Senate and House Military and Laval Affairs Committees, and other Members of Congress suggesting the probable necessity or advisability of the Government undertaking at an early date the insurance of aviators, or some form of financial cooperation with the insurance companies that will enable them to write insurance at rates possible to the insured, and under conditions which will protect the companies against war losses that may seriously affect their solvency.
 This action is in measure the re- suit of report submitted to this con- mittee of five on statistics of the Bu- reau of Personal Accident and Health Underwriters, wherein it was stated that it was impossible for the insur- ance companies to write accident in- surance for aviators. A number of the life insurance companies, however, have agreed to write life insurance for aviators at reasonable extra pre- miums.

CANNED TOMATO SAUCE

Since tomatoes contain a very high percentage of water, it often is desir- able to can only concentrated tomato products. This is true especially when cans or jars are difficult to ob- tain. A delicious concentrated tomato sauce may be made and canned as fol- lows, says the Uuited States Dep artment of Agriculture. Small or broken tomatoes and large tomatoes unsuitable for canning whole, may be used in this recipe.
 Cut the tomatoes into fairly small
