The story is that the day of the

Thirty T thousand Acres of Trees
Used Yearly for Toothpicks

Approximately 10000 acres Of trees
are necessary for the manufacture Of
the toothpicks used yearly in the
United States alone, according to
government estimates. Maple and
hickory are the chief kinds OF wood
used, although sweet and yellow birch
are employed in some localities. After
being felled, the logs are sawed into
bolts, twenty-eight inches long. These
are then steamed and cut into strips of
veneer or thin sticks which are divided
into ribbons, three inches wide. Eight
or ten of these are run through ma
chimes that clip them into splinters OF
regulation toothpick size and shape,
and they are then boxed, each con-
tainer holding about 1900. Michigan,
Maine, Ohio and Oregon are the prin-
cipal sources of the supply.

Repairing Leaky Spark Plugs

Spark plugs having removable

that the insulator has Clipped away

remedied by slipping thin brass

on top of the plug over the center
wire and drawing it up agai1tt the
porcelain. AS such washers arc too
large for this use. they must first be
trimmed down with timers SHIPS.

Preserving Leaves in Specimen
Book

The common method of preserving
leaves by pressing them with u fat
iron rubbed on beeswax may be I'M
proved in the following way: Paint
the underside of each leaf with linseed
oil and iron it immediately; then
paint and iron the upper side in the
same way. This treatment gives the
leaves sufficient gloss and keeps them
pliable. It is not necessary to press
and dry the leaves beforehand, al
though this may be done if desired.
The tints Of the leaves can even be
preserved by painting he upper side
with the oil and placir : them, with
out ironing. between newspapers and
under weights to dry.

No Eggs Boiled on Planet Mars
Temperature Tests Prove

OWNS to the rare state of air on the.
planet Mars, It has been shown by a
government scientist, water there will
boil at much lower temperature than
on the earth. To determine the degree
of warmth of the distant sphere, the
experimenter directs ray of the plan
cts light upon two thin wires, thus
setting up an electric current which IS
measured by delicate instruments.
The temperature of Mars, according
to the scientist, is from twenty to
forty degrees cooler than that OF the
earth. This would make it impossible
to boil eggs on the planet.

GRotting of wood is not due to the
elements, nor to direct chemical &C.

low forms of plant life which nourish
themselves on the wood and thus
