Scientists Find Brass
Safest for Saucepan

An important household question
the choice of n saucepan-has recently
been Investigated at the municipal
laboratory of Helsingfors, Finland.
Many kinds of metals and other ma
terials are in use for the manufacture
or saucepans and other cooking uten-
sils, but owing to the solvent action of
some foodstuffs II Is certain that chem
ical salts of the materials used are ab.
sorbed TO some extent by human be-
lngs.
test was made by boiling, for
three hours. two pounds OF red cur
rants In number of saucepans OF diff
ferent materials. and then. by chemical
analysis, finding how much OF the
taucepans had been dissolved in the
food. says London Tit-Bits.
The best figure obtained was that
for brass, which was $50 times better
than enamel. Brightly polished brass
cooking utensils are used on q large
scale In the East.
Copper. tin. nickel and aluminium
vessels were all found good, but iron
was found TO he much more easily at.
tucked by foodstufrs. Tin. next to pol.
ished brass, stood out as the best ma.
terlal for the lining OF cooking uten-
sils.

St. John Has Largest Res.s.-
Drydock in the World

st. John. N. b.. Canada. claims the
distinction of having the largest dry
dock In the world. The dryd0ck,
which recently has been opened for
use, measures: Length over all.s1, $50
feet; clear width at the entrance, 125
feet. with 42 feet of water over the
entrance sill at extreme high tide.
Bearing in mind that the largest
vessel afloat is only 956 feet long"
says bulletin of the Canadian Pa
cific railway, describing the immense
dock, "and that the naval authorities
are generally in agreement In conclud-
Ing that vessel dimensions have now
reached their economic maximum. It
would appear that unnecessary length
Is provided in the st. John drydock.
However, as this dock Is being pro-
vided with an intermediate sill, which
Will permit the whole dock to be d.
vided into two entirely separate cham
bers. the inner 500 feet long and the
outer $50 feet long. 1t will be appreci.
ated that this length is justified In
that 1t provides for the accommoda.
tion at one time of at least two mod
erately sized vessels, and still can be
utilized when the occasion arises as a
single docking chamber with sufficient
capacity 10 accommodate the largest
vessel afloat.
"rhe. new drydock presages n yet
enhanced Importance for the Port of
st. John. Already II has an important
place In Canada's economic life as the
principal outlet on the Atlantic coast
and the busiest port Of winter ship
ment. Its exports amount to nearly
S1OOoOO,OO0 per year and its imports
TO SoO.OOO,0OO. AS the terminus of two
Canadian railways. with branches ra-
dating from 1t, II can well and expe-
ditiously serve the Dominion. Its
touch with the United, States Is ade-
quate through fine services main
tnined with the republics coast ports.
1t has connection with practically
every country Of the globe through
services maintained with the United
Kingdom. France, Norway, Ireland,
South Africa. Australia, New Zealand,
Bermuda and many other localities"

NEW YORK, May 24.--The demand
for steel during the week showed evil
dences of slight Improvement, but at
best the buying was very spotted and
there was little to indicate any reyiv-

OF distributors to accumulate supplies.
Production was further curtaiIed TO
conform with the small demand and
prices on the whole continued steady.
Leading steel interests express them
selves as hopeful on the situation al
large. Pig iron was quiet but steady.
Copper developed weakness and a
lower level of prices because OF in
creased offerings from both firsts and
second hands meeting very poor do
nestle demand. There was some export
inquiry at lower prices but the trade
situation here does not encourage much
buying Interest, and there were rumors
that business had been done under the
13-cent level for electrolytic which was
generally quoted by dealers.

ming to grow scarcer because of pro-
longed chrtailment of production but
In the absence of q sustained demand
for them in sizeabIe quantities few price
differences come to the surface. Print
cloths and sheetings are being bought
in small lots. The former are slightly
firmer and higher on few staple num-
bers while the latter have about held
their own. Bleached cottons and per-
Gales are very quiet and there has been
no improvement in the demand for
ginghams and other staples. Wash fab
RIGS for filling-in purposes are being
bought moderately with novelties lead
ing. Colored cottons are In moderate
demand and in the coarser grades, prices
are weak. Wide sheetings, sheets, and
pillow cases are very quiet. Fine
combed goods are very quiet. Imported
cloths of this description have been orr
dered quite freely for future delivery.
