named fort algernoume in honor of william de percy first lord al gernon who had come to england with william the conqueror by 1611 it was well stockaded and contained seven heavy guns but in march 1612 accidentally burned to the ground during the remainder of the century the fortifications were rebuilt several times but each time fell into disrepair through changes in government administration and it was not until 1728 that work on fort george was started after au thorization by the virginia house of burgesses rubber trees the castilla and hevea rubber trees belong to unrelated families and different methods of tapping are jquired th6 hevea has a con tinuous network of microscopic tubes in the inner bark which seep the creamy latex to a single cut tapping is repeated by paring the rim of he cut the latex becoming more liquid and the flow increasing on successive days the socalled wound response tapping by the hevea method cannot be used on the castille trees because the latex tubes are not connected but the la tex ismoreebundant and much easier to collect by native methods tapping with many cuts which however soon killed the trees midget convulsed royalty when bamum transferred

process jaa per fected means ttuu canada will have profitable sulphur industry of her own to the average person the men tion of sulphur usually conjures up the memory of that particularly ob noxious tonic which in youth marked the advent of spring but to the chemical engineer sulphur represents one of the most useful and interest ing raw materials offered to man by mother nature la fact it is practic ally impossible to look about city town or village without seeing some useful commodity in the manuiact- ure of which sulphur has played an important part when you sit down to work at a desk that is painted or stained in all probability you are so to speak working on sulphur m the united states during 1937 paints and pig ments represented the seventh largest user or sulphur there were 105- 000 tons of sulphur used in the popu lar new titanium pigments lacquers such as you may use to brighten up your breakfast nook require sulphur too about a pound to every 5 gallons if the desk we mentioned above has a flat glass top youre very close to sulphpr because salt cake is necessary to the production of flat glass about 22 pounds of sulphur in the form of salt cake to 1000 square feet ol flat glass sulphur enters into the manufacture of clothing abo the textile processing industry it is authoritatively estimated used 22- 400 tons or sulphur during 1937 and if youre wearing rayon youre wear ing something that sulphur helped o make last year the rayon industry used 76000 tons of sulphur in addi tion to many thousand tons of carbon bisulphide and sulphur chloride it is quite a jump in thouhgt from rayon to candy but dont overlook the fact that sulphur in the form of sulphur dioxide is used in the clari fication of raw juices and in the pre cipitation of sugar sulphur also contributes to your motoring comfort and safety about 35 pounds of sulphur in one form another are required in the manu- actureof a car the rubber lnqie tires usually is compounded with 2 by weight or sulphur hard rubber moulded products contain about 40 by weight of sulphur agriculture owes much to sulphur for immense amounts of sulphuric acid are used in the manufacture ol chemical fertilizers sulphur vital to canadas pulp and paper industry last year over 45000000 pounds of sulphur were imported from texas a very large percentage of which went to our own pulp and paper plants be cause next to pulp wood itself sul phur is probably the most essential raw jnatertajused by this great cbteveznexuv for canada unce con aoudated smelters invented their new process for separating smcsuveriead what about the source of pyrite you ask during the two years that chemical engineers were testing the new process before they finally pro nounced it perfect mining engineers in quebec province had ascertained that sufficient ore was available for at least nve years production and this is only the beginning so on the face of things canada seems certain of her own sulphur in dustry in the near future ah indus try singularly favored in that it is assured c of a 24hburaday demand for its product before the first sul phur plant has even been built prison governor last night my safe was opened

knowledge of pysch- ology in canada jn this course ac cident prevention is an important subject borne acclnentprone professor tait divides automobile drivers into three types those who are naturally good and require little if any training but who should tested those who require training to help compensate for some defect their makeup those who will never make safe drivers psychologists have proven that there arc individuals who are actually prone to accidents it is these in dividuals who make up largely types two and three they are literally bom to pass through greater hazards in life than the average person estimate safeness this susceptibility to accidents carried into later life among auto mobile drivers it manifests itself in clumsiness in parking inability estimate distances correctly result ing in collisions on the highway slow reaction time preventing the driver from stopping the car in time lack of emotional control resulting in lack of balance and judgment un der stress or difficult conditions these are but a few of the factors considered by the psychologist in es timating the sftfeness of drivers dustry those 457000000 pounds rep resent millions of dollars what a market to have for our selves and we are going to have it in the near future nature hasnt given us sulphur to be dug or forced out by super heated water as in tex as but the ingenuity of our chemists has produced a new process for break ing pyrite into its two main constitu ents sulphur and iron quickly easily and cheaply this process is considered by ex perts to be the greatest

should be just be fore dark or as near to it as possible this last gathering may not produce a great number of eggs but5tnc6 broody hths win commonly search out the nest containing eggs after the days laying has ceased failure to gather late in the day is a common source of distinct deterioration each gathering should be placed in the coolest part of the cellar if no other cool spot is available as
