Many Types of Ships
Now Made of Concrete
United States Leads World ir
Production of Cement

Concrete made from Portland ce-
ment is now used in the construction
OF ships in more than a dozen leading
countries of the world. The United
States, according to a compilation Of
the National City Bank, is the largest
producer of the materials used in this
new form of shipbuilding. The type
Of vessel being constructed from con-
crete ranges from the barge and float
ing dock up to the ocean steamer of
several thousand tons capacity.
Concrete made from Portland or
other hydraulic cement, reinforced with
steel. is the chief material of these
vessels. The keel and ribs of the YES
sci are of steel, and quantities of wire
mesh are also used in retaining and
reinforcing the concrete which fills the
spaces between the steel ribs. This
combination of concrete and steel has
given to this type of work the title
OF "ferro concrete" and "reinforced
concrete" but in both the chief re-
quirements of the new type of vessel,
concrete and steel. the United States
far exceeds any other country in its
ordinary year-to-year production.
name from its resemblance in appear
ance to Portland stone," the bank says,
"is produced in far greater quantities
in the United States than in any other
country of the world, and in fact prob
ably exceeds that of all other countries
combined. Our own output of Portland
cement in 1917 was the largest in the
history of our production, amounting
to 93,55O 900 barrels, while that of the
other principal cement producing coun-
tries in the latest available year was
Germany 30000,000 barrels, England
100000 barrels and France 8,OOO,O 900
barrels. Our own production has grown
with great rapidity from $4,000 barrels
in 1880 to $4,000 in 1890, 8,4S2,O00 in
1900, 6s,2o5 900 in 1910 and 9a, $40 900

duction, while the value has grown

Food Labels Being
Distributed in City
They Show Price and Quantity
for Twenty Staples

After nearly three months of pre-
paratory work, the food labels and
placards explaining the same are be-
ing distributed among the thousands
of groceries, butcher shops, fish mar
kets and delicatessen shops of greater
New York. The work of distribution
is being done by members of the Food
Council of Greater New York, organized
by Assembly districts.
The Federal Food Board approved
and the state food commission passed
the label rules about three months ago.
The rules, fixing maximum prices on
about twenty food staples, went into
legal effect on January 10. They pro-
vlded that the labels, giving weight
or quantity as the case might be, with
the maximum price. should be attached
to the article. while the placard with
the rules was to be displayed promi-
nently in the store. Cyrus C. Miller,
of the state food commission, explained
that the promulgation Of the rules,
which haYe had the force of state
statute since January 10. had been de-
layed through the illness and subse-
quent resignation of DR.. Edward E.
Breithut, one of the state food COM
missions experts, who had this mat
ter in hand.

Pennsylvania Oil
Output About the
Same as in 1876
Price Of $4 a Barrel Calls Atten-
ton to Similarity of Stats
tical Position

Conditions in the market for Penn
sylvania crude oil at the present time
are almost identical with those exist
ing in 1876, when this grade of pc.
troleum sold on tho nbnormally high
basis Of Sd n barrel, which was again
established last week. According to
"The Oil City Derrick" the present
annual production of the best grade of
Pennsylvania crude is almost the same
as in 1876, the amount being little
more than 100000 barrels
The stocks of Pennsylva. ia oil at
the close of December, 1917, we're about
2,500,000 barrels, of 100000 barrels less
than forty-two years ago. The total
stocks under the head of Pennsylvania
at the close of 1917 were 2,731,928 bar
rels, but these figures included the
stocks of Cabell and Corning oil, and
presumably the sediment and surplus.
1t will therefore be readily cen that
the statistical position Of the Pennsyl-
vania oil production and stocks in 1876
and now is almost identical. The an
nual output is practically the same as
in 1876, and the stocks of merchantablc
oil agree closely with the amount on
hand then, but the market is in bet
ter position because Of the field situa-
ton.
At the close of 1876 the Bradford
field was beginning to make it's inhu-
ence felt on the production; Bullion
was developing as gushed pool, and
large wells were being found in the
M1llerstown district of Butler County
Instead of waning production it was
an expanding one. The next year, in
1877. the output of the Pennsylvania
fields was 13,135,475 barrels, and the
increase never stopped until it reached
the highest mark of an annual output
of 33,000,O00 barrels in 1891, and had
piled up some 100000 barrels of
stocks. Now the stocks are negligi-
Bile quantity; the production is decln-
ing, and there are no fields in sight
from which to expect a future addi-
tion to it, and certainly none of i'm
portance.
The Pennsylvania highs grade crude
petroleum is in a class by itself. 1t is
valuable for its gasolene and kerosene
contents, but more valuable for the
fine quality of lubricating oil obtained
from it. No other petroleum, unless it
may be some of the Wyoming crude,
equals it in this respect. The demand
for lubricants is increasing and this
puts an added burden on Pennsylvania
crude. Moreover, the production is de-
clining, and during the last two months
the pipe lines have not been able to
clear the tanks as usual, nor could the
wells be pumped as freely, because of
the weather conditions.

NJ. Boret added that the shortage Of
gasolene was having the effect of re.

were unable to scour the country and
buy up chickens, butter and other arti.

that although the country's bread "a.
