cracks, markings and holes-there
would be no difficulty in obtaining all
the mica needed. But, in proportion
to the mica mined there is only small:
percentage of sheet mica which when
finally prepared is of the proper quail
ity to be used in the industries.
Good sheet mica should be so flex.
ible that a sect a thousandth of an
inch thick can readily be bent into
cylinder one-quarter of an inch in di-
ameter without showing any cracking.
There is also great variation in
the hardness of mica, the Geological
Survey recognizes seven different de-
grees of hardness. Mica is is often
enormously called isingglass. The lat
ter substance is a gelatin made of air
bladders of certain fish. The sub
stance is soluable in water and burns
readily, whereas mica is neither solu-
BILE in water nor burns readily.
The production of the various kinds
of mica in the United States ranges
from 5000 to 5000 tons year.

white gink, by God!" He gathered up
the bills and put them into his pocket;
the danger he had just run of losing
them seemed to have made them, and
the occasion, almost sacred.
The girl was half convinced. "Ain't
he just gone for cop?" she asked.
!. HE was on the square; he won't
come back with no cop" declared
Sinkers. "He was white gink. He
was like some I met up the river.
Only they didn't never do nothin' but
falkland talks awful cheap E.
That was white gink There's some
men like that, believe me grille,
there is. And he done a regular white
thing; and he sure talked white, too
pure white"
He strolled about the room in SOL
emn meditation The girl wholly con
WINGED and admiring, looked at him in
silence.
HE was right have hardened; |
amt had a square DEAL" declared
Sinkers, producing, with due gravity,
the devils oldest excuse. He was
thinking hard; something large and
important was on his mind. 81 amt
never had much peace and good will
in my life-and l amt never showed
much to others. Grille" he
announced facing her squarely with a
kind of exaltation in his eyes, ri ain't
'a-goin' to croak that squealer-Pm
a-goin' to let him live!"
ooh, Harry" murmured the girl;
awe and admiration of him held her
spellbound. 1t was several seconds
before she gained the courage to go
to him, to put her arms timidlv
around his neck. ooh Pm so glad,
Harry" she told him, with tears in
her voice and eyes. tits lot safer
and better-just you leave the croakin'
alone and stick to bein' good honest
dip!"
Of course it would be pleasant to
view Sinkers, in this last paragraph,
as reformed and model young man;
but at least we leave him a compare
lively good, honest dip, not a muir
derer; and considering how white his
unknown friend must have been and
how black Sinkers was, 1 don't know
but that Sinkers' good deed shows up
a good deal whittier than the deed of
the man in the hall-by comparison,
of course.

New Electrical Device
About the House

A new electrical device which will
fill a wide range of usefulness about
the average household has the appear
ance of gas or oil stove, but its
function is to deliver air, hot or cold,
wet or dry, ozonated or medicated, as
desired. A room which is close o.
stuffy from a lack of ventilation may
be made comfortable by injecting
little ozone into it; or if it is too dry,
moisture may be impaired to it by
means of an attachment where the cur
rent of air is made to pass over a
large wick kept saturated with water.
In addition to this a current of
warm air may be delivered for the
purpose of drying the hair after a
shampoo or, if wanted, a current Of
air at normal temperature may be had.
For drying the hair it performs task
in a few minutes which ordinarily re-
quires more than an hour.

Community Dairy
Development
At National Show

The United States Department OF
Agriculture is going to take an active
part in the National Dairy Show at
Chicago, October TIC, 1920, by show
ing how it's various activities may be
utilized in developing rural COM
munities along specific lines. There
fore, community dairy development
will feature the exhibit, and various
booths will carry out this idea.
The chief attraction will be a por-
trayal of the community at Grove City,
Pa, developed under the direction of
the department. A model with expla-
natory charts will show the develor.
ment of this community from basis
of individual dairying, on small scale,
to its present status as an exponent Of
community dairying, accomplished by
cooperation of local agencies, 1nclud-
ing banks. commercial clubs, etc, with
the department. A creamery built to
handle the products of the farms, now
manufactures approximately one-half
million pounds of butter a year, be.
sides considerable quantities of special
cheese of the Swiss, Roquefort, Cam
embert, and cottage types. In add.
ton, condensed skim milk and casein
are manufactured by the most scien-
tific methods. The creamery has made
an outlet for daily products at profit
able prices, and has developed the idea
of utilizing surplus milk and by
products, such as skim milk.
The various smaller booths will show

Persons who are interested in de-
posits of mica should note the state
ment of the United States Geological
Survey that only a large deposit OF
mica favorably located with regard to
transportation and a grinding mill
can be proftably worked solely as a
source of scrap mica for grinding.
Most mica mines must yield good
sheet mica to make the mining profit
able. Mica to be of value as sheet
must yield rectangles at least one and
a half by two inches which must split
easily and evenly, be free from cracks,
markings and fracture lines, and be
reasonably free from specks or foreign
mineral matter The size stated is the
smallest rectangular size which is sala-
BILE as uncut sheet and the rough
trimmed sheet must be nearly twice
as large to yield the rectangle stated.
In order to be profitable most deposits
also must contain some mica larger
than one and a half by two inches
If mica did not usually contain much
foreign matter and did not have 50
many assures and imperfections-

Ironing Machine Efficiency

An ordinary tablecloth or an iron

minutes. With a good electric iron
it takes about 25 to 80. Besides this,
the cloth is ironed evenly and the
pattern, if it be embroidered, is even
ly brought out. Initials come out in
beautiful relief, and buttons on gar
ments do not break because of the
deeply padded felt rolls which are COW
