Meteorites Incite :
Much Curiosity

The curiosity of the average per
son regarding meteorites is respon-
sible for many requests received
throughout the year by the State
Bureau of Mines and Geology At
Butte for information about these
masses of mineral substance which
have reached the surface of the
earth from outer space. Numerous
specimens of country rock are need
lessly sent in under the misappre-
hension that they are heavenly
visitors The term meteor refers
to the body while in the air; meteo-
rite refers to the mass after it has
reached the earth "Meteorites.
says DR.. E. S. Perry, the Bureaus
Chief Geologist, may be readily
Identified from the fact that they
are usually quite heavy, black to
dark-brown in color, and nearly al
ways show smooth, partly fused sur
faces resembling that of clinker
from a furnace However, heavy
black TO dark-brown smooth stones
which are not meteorites are, COM
mon, and perhaps the surest index is
the presence of grains or irregular
masses of metallic iron in the stone.
Meteors are also known as shoot
ing stars and fireballs. The earth
passes through swarms of them in
all seasons of the year, but notably
in the late summer and fall. It is
estimated that as many as 20 mil
hon enter the earth's atmosphere
each day. During periods of great
activity the number of meteors may
be increased twenty Meteoric
swarms revolve in definite orbits
around the sun in a manner similar
to planets, and some of the par
ticles fall into the atmosphere due
to friction caused by passing
through the air. Since the total
time spent by meteor in travelling
through the earth's atmosphere is
usually about minute, only a thin
outer film of it becomes heated, the
inner portion remaining cold In
other words, meteorites when they
reach the earth are not a mass of
liquid rock, but are essential cold
solid bodies.
Varying in size from tiny grains
to masses of SO tons or more,
meteorites are classified as follows.
% Siderites, composed of iron and
always alleged with nickel; (2)
Siderolites, spongy masses of iron
embedded with grains of various
silicate minerals. and CD Meteoric
Stones which are composed of sill
cate minerals in a stony matrix COM
monty containing small grains of
iron
Generally, meteorites are of no
value, except as museum specimens.
A notable exception is mass of
meteoric iron and nickle which, Gre
ated vast crater in Arizona when
it struck the earth's surface Dia-
mond drilling has revealed the pres
ence of thousands of tons of nickel
iron and attempts are currently be-
ing made to mine it for commercial
use

Editorial

In last weeks editorial we tried
to list few of the educational
values that would be obtained from
the schools purchase of radio.
Perhaps even more important than
these are the recreational and en-
tertainment facilities that this in
strument would offer. AT noon
hours it could be used to provide
entertainment for the students who
bring their lunches For a small
extra charge, radio-phonograph
combination could be purchased and
used for dances in place of the Gus
tomary Wurlitzer, which charges lis
five cents for every record played.
This would also eliminate all the
trouble of obtaining music for
school parties.
Many people will say, Its fine TO
talk of a radio for the school, but
aren't they an expensive purchase
Radios have been perfected to such
a state that now very good set
may be purchased for less than the
price of typewriter. Since the
newer models require no aerial or
ground connections, they can be
moved about very easily, and thus
one radio would serve the whole
school very nicely Is the school
willing TO spend a small sum of
money to purchase this very neces-
sary instrument, or will it continue
to teach us all the details of history
and other such subjects, while we
remain bhssfully ignorant of what
is happening today?

Hog Farmers Appear
Headed for Another
GIutted Market
Abundant Feed Supply
Finds Production Near
Pre-SIoughter Levels
BY the Associated Press.


CHICAGO, Aug. 23.-The sixth
anniversary of the Governments
pig slaughter program today found
the Nations hog farmers headed for
the same kind of trouble that
brought on the 1888 curtailment Of
production.
Stimulated by abundant corn and
other feed supplies. hog production
has been stepped up sharply to levels
nearing those that preceded the
Government program and the great
droughts of 1884 and 1886. Prices,
as a result, are the lowest in five
years.
At $3.50 a hundredweight, the aver
age hog price in the Chicago whole
sale market yesterday was more
than 81 below the average year
ago and nearly 81 below the August,
1887, average, when hogs reached
an 11-year peak of S13.75. The
price, however, was 81 cents higher
than the $495 average set last week
after six consecutive weeks of slid
ing prices. Hog top here yesterday
was $3.50.
The decline in the hog market
during the last two years has been
the sharpest since the collapse OF
prices in 192O-1922.
However, at current prices hogs
still bring about 81 more than on
the day the first of the 100000
small pigs and 100000 breed sows
sold to the Government were killed
in an effort to better the swine rails
ers' economic status.
Hog prices began steady advance
in 1884 and year later, following
the drought, had nearly doubled
their value because of extreme
shortage.
The Nations hog population was
estimated at 100000 on January
l., 1885, compared with 49,011 900 at
the start of 1899 The Department
of Agriculture has predicted the
1899 pig crop may exceed 10000, 900
or about equal the 1929 1888 average

Import Needs Guard
British Pound From
DevaIuation
Equalization Account
Loses Heavily, but Holds
Price at Peeeed Level
Bv WILLIAM H. sTONEMAN,

BY WILLIAM H. STONEMAN,
Chicago Daily News Foreign Correspondent.
LONDON, Aug 23.-Although it is
estimated to be losing at least 3,000,-
900 pounds day in its operations,
the British exchange equalization
account continues to keep the pound
sterling pegged at s4681s cents, thus
defying those who have looked for
an early devaluation of British cur
rency.
While people in the city continue
to gossip about the possibility of
devaluation at an early date, it is
generally believed that the factors
against such move have more
weight with the authorities than the,
factors in favor of it.
Keeps Prices Down.
AS long as the British continue
to make heavy purchases of raw
materials abroad. it is to their ad-
vantage to MAINTAIN the pound at
its present level in order to keep
prices, in terms of sterling, down.
1t is probable, in turn, that such
purchases will increase in the near
future. even though there is no war,
British stocks being relatively low at
the present time.
One thing which might render the
devaluation of the pound unavoid-
able would be a material increase in
Britain's adverse balance of pay
ments, which now is estimated to
stand at about 100000 900 pounds
year. If there should be a sudden
rise in the cost of raw materials,
coupled with a great increase in the
amount of British imports, and this
adverse balance were to increase to
a figure of say 150,0O0.0OO pounds
yearly, then it might be necessary
to refix the value of the currency
unit.
Not Prepared to Export.
One fact which would deprive de-
valuation of one of its stock charms,
in the case of England, is that this
country is not now prepared to in
crease its exports to any great ex-
tent. Thus it could not take full
advantage of being able to sell in
cheap sterling in competition with
relatively expensive dollars.
