Preserving Foliage
The beauty of autumn foliage
can be preserved for winter bou
quets. If you want to preserve a
fresh spray of colorful leaves, lay
them flat as possible on an old
newspaper and apply a thin coat
of fresh white shellac, making sure
to cover the stems where they join
the heavier twig. Allow to dry
thoroughly and then repeat the
process on the opposite side. A
second or third thin coat of shellac
will add to the stiffness of the leaf
so that it will not break easily or
curl.

Varying Track Gauge
Plagues Railroading
The tedious business of trans
shipping over railroad lines of
varying track gauge is virtually
unknown in America north of the
Rio Grande. It nevertheless con
tinues to complicate rail trans
portation at many places on six
continents.
Pointing up this fact, is an old
idea being tried anew on the Py-
renees-walled frontier between
France and Spain.
There, a new-type railroad-car
axle adjustable to variations in
track width has recently come into
use. Successful in its first tests,
this French invention makes pos
sible the transfer of cars from
French tracks of standard gauge
(4 feet, 8% inches) to the broad-
gauge Spanish tracks (5 feet, 6
inches), and vice versa. Expensive
and time-consuming unloading and
reloading are eliminated.
Standard gauge has earned the
right to be so called, since it' is
now all but universal in the United
States and Canada, Great Britain,
France, Germany, and Italy. It is
found on every continent except
rail-less Antarctica. It prevails in
Soviet-satellite countries of eas
tern Europe, where freight mov
ing toward Moscow must be trans
shipped on Russian rails of five-
foot gauge.
The odd width of the standard
gauge came about, records show,
because European rail wagons of
the 17th century had wheels set
five feet apart and rolled on
flanged tracks. Transfer of the
flange from rail to wheel produced
the track gauge of 4 feet, 8%
inches.
Railroads of today employ a
score of different gauges ranging
from less than two feet up to
5% feet as in Spain. Gauges of 3
to 3% feet prevail in many moun
tainous regions where lightef
trains for steeper-than-average
grades are desirable.
Balloon's Lift Comes
From Volume of Gas
The lifting power of a balloon
depends on the volume of gas con
tained in the balloon. The forces
that raise it are the same as those
that keep a ship floating in water.
That is, the lift is equal to the
difference in weight between the
gas that is in the bag and the air
which the bag displaces.
A thousand cubic feet of air at
sea-level pressure weighs 81
pounds, while the same volume of
hydrogen at similar pressure
weighs only 6 pounds. Thus, 1000
cu. ft. of this gas will lift a total of
81 minus 6, or 75 pounds, in which,
of course, the balloon itself must
be included. Since 1000 cu. ft. of
helium weighs 11 pounds, this
would lift only 70 pounds.
The balloon stops rising when it
reaches a level where the atmos
phere is so thin that the displaced
air weighs the same as the en
closed gas.
