The use of re-enforced concrete armer on warships bas recently been suggested. An italian engineer, Lor enzo d'Adda. has been led by the suc cess of concrete laud fortifications, as revealed in the Russian-Japanese war, to construct armor plates of re en forced concrete, covered with thin plates of steel, as a protection against the immediate effects of the Impact of shelis. Concrete armor plates, even when re-enforced -by stout and close ly inlaid iron burs, must obviously be much thicker than hardened steel armor, but as the specific gravity ot the material ls only one-third that cf steel the weight of the armor need cot be increased, while Its cost may be very greatly diminished. The sub stitution of re-enforced concrete for steel armor cn a first class battleship would effect a considerable saving. The practicability of the substitution will be decided by the result of ex periments, soon to be made, on the effect of shots on the re-enforced concrete plates.-Scientific American.

It is easy to adopt a rotation on land that is under tillage and where some kind of livestock farming is being followed so that the clover and ether grasses that form an essen tial part of the rotation may be prof itably utilized. One of the best rota tions for the stock farmer of the mid dle states to follow is the following: corn, followed by winter wheat drilled m the stubble; clover, manure to be applied as a tcp dressing and turned under with the second crop for cora te next year.

C.-To those who leave their offices each noon to snatch a hasty lunch, the Government has a word of advice to offer. It ls this: Whenever a restaurateur offers you a cracked mug and a chipped, seamy plate on which food is served, flee It as you would the pestilence. In the recesses of those cracks lurk thou sands of bacteria, and they draw no distinction between the millionaire employer and his $10 a week steno-1 grapher. The Bureau of Chemistry, ii the head of which is Dr. Harvey W. Wi ley, has just concluded experiments on cracked china utensils taken from .the.lunch rooms of Washington. The conditions they find to exist in the . restaurants heredare duplicated in every big city. In Kew York and Chi cago, wnere trade at "quick lunch" establishments is much greater, a far larger population of germs is be lieved to have taken up its abode in the cracks and crevices of the table service. The examination of the chinaware by the Government came about as a result of a crusade being waged against unhealthful kitchens and serving rooms In the District o? Col umbia. With the approval of Secre tary Wilson and Dr. Wiley the Gov ernment chemists were turned loose on the trail. They discovered mill ions of germs in the cracks. Dr. George W. Stiles, bacteriologi cal chemist of the department, had charge of the tests. Several dozen cracked mugs, plates and saucers tak en at random from the counters of lunch rooms and from the cafes of hotels were examined. The result was that Dr. Stiles discovered twenty three distinct species of organisms lurking in the cracks and seams. In the final test it was found that these organisms ranged in number from 486 to *4,580,OOO to i Milllflltl inch.

Many of the other bacilli . the cracked chinaware are due to uriT" clean conditions.

The bacilli are no re specto:* of persons. Dr. Stiles, in discussing the result of his tests, says : "Tbis is a question which must necessarily appeal to every responsi ble individual who seriously considers the matter of eating clean and whole some food. When we consider the great number and variety of organ isms studied in relation to these cracked mugs the question of house hold sanitation becomes more im perative than ever, and a study of the sanitary conditions in private and public life would in many instances furnish startling results. "Many of our hotels, public res taurants and cafes are particular to see that splendid serving rooms are provided and elaborately furnished, which from exterior appearances seam to be all that could be desired for the welfare and comfort of their guests, but let one go behind the scenes in many places and note the changed conditions. The picture may be entirely different from that ex pected. "The sanitary aspect of refrigera tors and icebones during hot weather may develop conditions 'beyond hu man toleration. Why people do not take better care of these places of storage is difficult to say. However, it is a regrettable fact that many such places often contain highly objection able material, and if not intended for immediate use it often contaminates and ruins the entire contents of the icebox. "In concluding' it seems highly de sirable to eliminate the use of cracked dishes for the reception of food mate rials^ ,and to make an appeal for a itftere careful observance of the vn hygienic measures to protect food from unnecessary and un able contamination." Dr. Pasquale Grillo takes sharp is b with Dr. Wiley. "Of course there i germs in cracked china," he said, _js there are in everything else in the 'universe. And it may be that some of these are bad instead of good. The proportion of bad germs to good ones is as 6 to 1,000,000,000. The bad germ may kill you; the good ones may be eaten by the spoonful without harmful results.
