ALUMINIUM FOR WAR PURPOSE
Germany and Austria Use More Light
Weight Metal Than All Other
Nations Now in Conflict.

1t is stated that Germany and Aus
tria use more aluminium for war pur-
poses than ali the other belligerents
combined. 1t Is known, in fact, that
Germany has for some years been col
lecting and storing the metal for war
uses, and the majority of the drinking
mugs, cans and cups of the German
soldiers are made of the light metal
The frames for zeppelins and the fuses
for shells are also made from alumni
nun.
One Of the difficulties the Germans
have had to face is the shortage of
copper necessary for the rings round
shells. Many of the German shells are
now provided with aluminun> rings
Although aluminium has come to be
regarded as a substitute, even in cart
ridges as well as shells and fuses, It
does not answer its purpose nearly as
well as copper. The FreEth authori-
ties experimental with 1t some years
ago for artillery purposes, but rejected
1t, says London Tft-Bits. The Germans
are using 1t In large quantities, how
ever, on account Of the shortage Of
copper.

a cigar of size and quality proper
Tomato to his superior position. But
the pupils are not allowed to drink
this privilege being accorded to tn
master only. On his desk he always
keeps bottle Of liquor, which, when
empty, occasions much dispute among
the parents of his scholars, as 1t is
considered an honor to be able to fiji

FISH PRODUCE MANY EGGS
Scientific Count Shows Perch 1912
Inches Long Contained 3o,4so--
More In Small Than Large.

Information concerning the number
Of eggs produced by various species Of
fish has been limited mainly to rather
rough estimates.
According to the Allgemeins Flsch-
erei-Zeitung, some careful counts were
made last year at the Bavarian trout,
hatchery. The first Investigations were
in connection with common trout and
rainbow trout; IS specimens Of the
former and "a Of the latter were
stripped, and the ova counted. The
older and heavier fish were found to
have the most eggs (ranging UP to
about $1,000, but the younger fish
yielded a decidedly larger number of
eggs in proportion to the weight Of
the fish.
The experiments were repeated with
perch (Perca fluviatilis), in this case
the females just about to spawn being
killed, and the ovarles being removed
and dissected. The number Of eggs In
perch ranged from 3,710 for a fish four
inches long up to 30,480 for one 1912
inches long; but In this species, also,
the number Of eggs per unit weight
Of fish Is much larger In small than
In large fsh.-Scientific American.
