Oxide Of Iron.

Oxide Of iron, explained in simplest
terms, is combination Of iron and the
gas, oxygen. The rust that gathers on
a piece Of iron exposed for length Of
time to the air is a form of oxide Of
iron. Iron is seldom found In pure
state. The iron ores taken from mines
are ferrous compounds, that is, iron
combined with other elements-with
oxygen, sulphur, phosphorus, etc. In
the manufacture Of iron from the ore,
these substances have to be got rid Of.
II iron ore contains high percentage
Of iron. 1t Is valuable.

Nature Not 70 Be Thwarted.

About 200 years ago the Dutch de.
stroyed every nutmeg tree In the Mol
uccas, and planted the trees In their
own possessions. SO that they might
have monopoly Of the trade. De
spite this action, however, the Is
lands were constantly being restocked.
For long time the thing was a mys-
terry, but finally 1t was solved. The
doves Of that region are Of large size
and readily swallow the seeds Of the
nutmeg tree. They traverse wide
stretches of sea and land in few
hours, and they deposit the seeds, not
only uninjured, but better suited for
termination by the heat and moisture
