Mr.. Bennett had no answer to this
and there was short silence before
he objected. But it's so Popish, this

New Substance Existing In Soil.

One of the most important discoveries
in the science of soils has been made by
experts OF the United States Department
of Agriculture within the last year in the
separation OF q hitherto unknown sub
stance which has been designated as nl-
traclay, . gelatinslike substance, very
sticky and plastic when wet and having
10 the dry state the general appearance
of resin. 1t appears to be silicste of
alumiua, usually with some iron and
traces of potassium, sodium, magnesium,
and calcium, whether combined or mere
ly absorbed being point not yet deter
mined.
This ultraclay is believed to be the
principal factor in making the soil plas-
tic, but when added to loose and inco-
hsrent sand in proportions up to 10 per
cent aud the mixture made into bril-
quettss and dried, II gives to the sand q
crushing strength greater than IN equal
amount of Portland cement. The bri-
quettes made With ultra clay, however.
fall to pieces when put In water. while
those made with Portland cement retain
their form.
The discovery has an important bear.
ing upon the physical properties Of soils
and is being studied In cooperation with

adjusting the structure Of concrete and
other pavsments to the texture OF the
soil on which they are built.

Australian Eggs.

Farmers may as we'll make up their
minds that agriculture is world busi-
ness. The remotest spot In the two hem
ispberes shelters either customer or q
competitor of the farmer In the United
States.
For Q long time this country has been
getting butter from Denmark, wheat
from Canada, mutton from New Zealand,
wool from Australia, peanuts, beans
from Japan and China, hides and meats
and grains from the different countries
of South America, and vegetable fats
from every jungle on the globe.
The latest thing noticed is shipment
OF eggs from Australia placed on sale In
Chicago.
Australia, the reader knows, is on the
southern half of the world. 1t is sum-
msr down there during our winter.
Australian hens are laying when ours

1t seems comparatively easy, at present
prices to ship the Australian eggs here

saw his line was pretty well out. He
began drawing 1t In, but 1t soon drew

Schlender noticed that the line ap-
parently led from the snag to the bank.
He walked over to tree on the bank
