Adds to Efficiency.

Industrial chemistry gains new element of efficiency through the de- velopment of an electrical system of automatic testing and control, by which any change in the proper action of the process, as it proceeds, is not only reported, but is corrected as well. Thus the strength of a solution, it's acidity, gaseous content. or other char acteristic, may be recorded continu- ously on a distant chart, while cleo trieally operated valves work auto- matically to offset immediately any shortage or surplus of a constituent; part of the mixture. The system pro- vides means for compensating against changes of temperature, pressure or time of reaction and even the prob lem introduced by different mixtures having the same electrical resistance has been solved.-Popular Mechanics l Magazine.

New Self-Windinu Clock.

Wireless impulses sent from the Washington observatory station are
 now correcting the time of self winding electric clock at a point in New Jersey. As described in the
 Popular Mechanics Magazine, this
 clock is equipped with sensitive radio selecting, receiving, and relay ing apparatus, by means of which 1t takes the impulse from the air and is adjusted thereby. At one minute of 12, noon, the clock automatically closes a switch by which the radio apparatus is thrown into operation. It is tuned to receive only that time signal which is sent out at noon by the observatory. After the clock has been set by message, the same switch is automatically opened. In the event that no message Is received
 the switch opens anyway at thirty seconds after 12 and will not close again until the following day at one minute before noon. Thus the clQci

Mir. Herbert Hoover, the secretary of commerce, soon after he came to office had q long discussion with a man who had held the same job years before They went particularly into the problems of government reorgani- zation, pulled the subject back and forth for hours. When the confer ence was over the visitor said to Mir. Hoover:

The building is we'll constructed of good materials to make it weathertlgat. It is set on a concrete foundation and has a concrete floor. Along one wall runs a feeding alley while doors at the floor line permit the hogs to leave their pens when weather conditions are right.
 The building is set east and west with windows facing the south. Ihls gives the late winter and early spring sun chance to give the interior of the house the benefit of its warmth. As the weather gets warmer and the pigs are allowed to run out doors the windows may be opened for better ven tilation.
 To be healthy young pigs nYust not be subjected to draft, neither must they be chilled Plenty of Bedding placed on plank floor that is raised slightly from the concrete floor helps to keep them warm and dry. Con- trary to the general opinion among those who do not know better, hog is a cleanly animal, and will keep hlm- self clean if the conditions are such that he can. The plank floor covers only about two-thirds of the penj and the hogs themselves will keep the -bed- ding placed on it clean.
 Two filters a year are natural with sowsa But if the young pigs are to- be brought to maturity at the right time,. they must be born in late Feb, ruary or March and in September, or the eanfy part of October. Spring pigs are hard to raise unless they have such q home as here described. Outside the hog house on the south side is concrete feeding floor, where the pigs are allowed to run outside, when they are fed. This feeding floor

 q can not favor the enactment of the measure. I do not believe it would be advisable for congress to permit private interests to develop irrigation or power sites within the limits Of existing national parks These parks were created by congress for the preservation of the scenery, forests, and other objects of beauty and ln- terest in their natural condition, and they are created and maintained for general and national opposes as con tradistinguished from local develop ment.

THE most beautiful of all millinery l sings it's swan song in August ana adds a regret for the passing of the season that brings it in. Made for the warmest days, the airy hats of mid summer vanish like a morning mist, as soon as the first hint of chill comes in September breezes; they only flour ish in the balmiest air and brightest sunshine; their career is brief but glorious.
 Five of these dreams of summer, ex- pressed in terms of millinery fabrics and trimmings, are shown in the group nictured here.
