Science Fights Corrosion
Of Buried Steel Pipes

Scientists are making Roadway in
their attack on the baff1ing chemical
problem of corrosion of buried steel
pipe affecting pipe lines carrying
oil and gas along hundreds of miles
of territory, says DR.. Walter F.
Rogers in a research report to the
American Chemical society. The in
vestigation affects immense invest
ments of the oil, gas and water in
dustries. In the oil industry alone,
$4,000 miles of pipe ranging in size
from to 20 inches, are used to
transport petroleum and its prod
ucts.
DR.. Rogers describes recent stud
les which approach the problem
from the point of view of soil char
acteristics. 1t was found that while
both the electric resistivity and the
degree of acidity of soils have some
effect on soil corrosion, the govern
ing factor is the soil volume-water
content.
Soils which become admixed with
oil are frequently highly corrosive
to the buried pipe, DR.. Rogers found.
When the soil particles become coat
ed with oil, they do not coalesce cas-
lily, but remain in the abnormal con-
dition of being loosely packed and
possessing a high porosity. The eff
feet of oil thus changes what may
be normally non-corrosive soil to
a soil in a condition susceptible of
producing rapid corrosion rates of
buried steel pipe.
The most important conclusions
which may be drawn from these
tests deal with their practical value,
according to DR.. Rogers. 1t has
been shown that the physical condi-
ton of a soil as regards its soil
volume-water content controls its
corroSion rate. By artihcially or
naturally controlling the soil vol
ume-water content, any soil can be
put in a condition which will allow
corrosion to occur.

Mahogany Substitutes

Many woods have masqueraded
under the name of mahogany ever
since mahogany became recognized
as a fine cabinet wood. In the
earliest days no distinction was
made between mahogany and ce-
dar, both going under the name
cedar" The name mahogany
came into use after England took
Jamaica in 1855 and thus was able
to know the trees as well as the
wood. Since then, prima vera has
been called white mahogany" al
though not a mahogany at all. The
wood now goes under its real name
''prima vera" For many years,
before the days of Federal Trade
commissions and Better Business
bureaus, padouk was known as
"East Indian mahogany" The
most recent and extensive poach-
ing on the name mahogany" has
been under the misnomer Of "Phil-
ippine Mahogany" This name has
been applied to q dozen or more
kinds of trees of the Dipterocarp
family that grow m the Philippines.
These trees. are not remotely re-
lated to mahogany,

Ten-Story Building on
Roller Skates a Novelty

MONTREAL.-''A building on roll
er skates is one of the strange edi-
fees that tower off the harbor here.
The building, $50 feet high. is part
of grain elevator, and houses a
huge apparatus known as legs
which dive down into the depths of a
grain-carrying ship and unload the
vessels cargo.
The matches Of the various ships
that tie up in the harbor are not
always in the same place because of
the difference in size of the ships
and some type of movable appara-
tus which can reach the holds is
necessary. The l0-story building on
wheels was built to meet the prob
lem.
When ship ties up to unload, the
building can move along the wharf
on specially constructed tracks, and
Immediately proceeds to empty the
ship and fill the bins of the elevator.

Bridge Grating Of Trees

The art of bridge grating Of trees
was taught to man by nature. Nat
ural bridge grating is seldom seen
in trees. Artificial grating OF trees
is one of the oldest arts of plant
craft. Early writer's say that graft
ing of plants once was held as a
professional secret. For many years
artificial bridge grating has been
successfully practiced to save trees
girdled by rodents or injured by
disease.

Farm Advisors
Present Problems
AT Economic Meet

From a list of statistics, resolu-
tions and recommendations that
made the second annual farm econ
omic planning conference success,
there were enough agricultural
problems presented to make busi-
neSSmen realize there is more to
farming than just the planting of
seeds, cultivation and sale of the
products
The farm advisor staff of the
agricultural extension service pre-
sented three problems which must
be overcome or worked out before
the valley can establish itself as
completely successful agricultural
district.
George Winwright, assistant
county agent said:
Imperial Valley should be con-
cerned over the present lack of
livestock enterprises in Imperial
county
Lee Landerman, assistant county
agent, said: The quickest way to
livestock expansion in Imperial
county Is through our junior far
mers enrolled in the All clubs and
in the Future Farmer groups.
Frank Beyschlag, county farm ad-
visor said: There is definite need
for more individual drainage sys-
TENS i'll the valley to save some
sections of land from being render
ed useless by rising water table
and subsequent alkali problems
Winwright urged a supplemental
feeding program in dairying in the
valley. That type of program, Win
wright said, cuts down overhead
cost and improved condition of ami
mails.
The valley, the county agent said
provides the finest possible setup
for livestock raising because of low
housing costs, cheap feeding and
proximity Of the Los Angeles mar
ket.
Landerman pointed to the rapid
development of All and Future
Farmer groups In the livestock en-
terprises and predicted that the
young farmers would one day take
advantage of the opportunities of
fered in that field.
The All club director outlined
the long range program now prac-
ticed in the club and demonstrated
how the youngsters will be able to
develop herds of dairy cattle or
strings of swine or sheep in the
natural development of projects.
Beyschlag first explained the salt
problem in the valley, stressing its
complication in the past few years.
The farm advisor urged occasional
over irrigation to flush salt out of
the land on those types of soil
which provide a natural drain.
Installation of tile drainage is
necessary in soils where a natural
drain is not provided, Beyschlag
concluded.

and such other crops as shall in
the discretion Of the Director OF
the Department of Industrial Re

mercial importance to justify ap-

riculture and one of labor, with the
third to be an impartial" per-
son. All would be appointed by the
Governor. Each board, after pub
lie hearings in the district affect
ed, would set up wage standards
for period to be specified In the
boards order. Such wage stan
dards, according to the act, would
be voluntary" but if the act once
became effective it would doubt
less be only a short time before
legislation was asked to make the
standards compulsory.
There are other acts before the
Legislature which would set up
definite (and compulsory mini
mum wage standards for all in
dustry in the state, agriculture in
cluded. There are still others
that would provide time and hall
payments for overtime on the
farm, ct cetera.

EDITORS NOTE: This is the
concluding article in a series by
Ralph H. Taylor, farm leader and
legislative observer, reviewing bills
before the 1899 State Legislature
which call for the creation OF new
departments, new commissions and
new governmental services.
There are many bills of direct
and vital interest TO all rural Cali
fornia in the vast array of meas
ures now pending before the State
legislature which call for the es-
tablishment OF new departments,
the creation of new bureaus with
in existing departments, or the in
auuration of new governmental
policies.
The farming industry, for exam
pie, should give careful scrutiny to
A. B. 2033 Under the terms Of
this bill, work of the State De-
partment of Agriculture would be
conducted by four divisions: Mar
keting, Animal Husbandry, Plant
Husbandry and Chemical Investiga-
ton.
The chief Of each division would
be appointed by and hold office at
the pleasure of the Governor. (Un-
der the present set-up, the Director
of Agriculture names his division
Imperial Valley press., 1939-03-19

chiefs, but under Civil Service.)
This measure also increases the
salary of the Director of Agricul-
ture from $4,000 to $1,000 a year. 1t
further provides that within the
Division of Animal Husbandry, the
director shall establish a Bureau
of Live Stock and Poultry Disease
Control, its supervisor to be a
graduate of a recognized college OF
veterinary medicine, licensed to
practice in this state and having
had not less than five years actual
private practice before his appoint
ment.
No attempt will be made in this
article to review the many labor
bills affecting agriculture (there
are at least a hundred of such
measures), nor will all the relief
proposals which have direct bear
ing on the farming industry be
analyzed. But one or two of these
bills should be considered as indi-
cative of the problems which con-
front agriculture as consequence
of the relief problem and the drive
by labor to use the lawmaking
powers Of the state to assist it in
setting up union-made standards of
hours and wages.
The attempt to unionize the farm
ing industry by statute-rather
than by any demand on the part
of farm workers for such union
ization-is exemplified in A. B.
1886, which provides for the crca-
