Eggs are going away up in price from present infficatioms, the supply being very low for this time of year. On. Saturday the local retail stores quoted them at 40c to 45¢c per dozen according to quality, and they ara scarce at that. There has been lit- tle change in the market otherwise, except in the seasonable fruits and vegetables. Peaches have disappeared from the market, as have also Bartlett pears. The winter varieties are quite plentiful now ,and there is a steady demand. It is expected that tomatoes will be off the list after Saturday, though a few bushels were sold at $1.00 to $1.25.

A piece of this substance is called 8 "natural magnet," and it has two very remarkable properties, as follows: (a) If a piece of it is dipped Into iron filings the filings will adhere to it. (b) If a piece of it is suspended by a silk thread or by a thin un- twisted cord it will get itself with its longer axis very nearly in a northerly and southerly direction. A small rod of iron or steel which is brought near to a piece of. magnetite, or which is rubbed on it in a certain way, shows the same properties and is said to be magnetized. If the rod or bar is made of rather hard steel the effects persist after the iron ore has been taken away and the wnagnetized rod is then called a "permanent magnet," or simply 8 bar magnet. These permanent magnets may be made in the form of straight bars orround or square section, usually with the length rather {large as compared with the diameter. They are also bent in- MAGNETISM. being the horseshoe, or U-shaped magnet. Magnets may be made by pass ing an electric current through a coil which surrounds the rod Hf the rod is made of soft iron, it is only magnetized as long as the current flows It is then called a temporary magnet or an "elec. tromagnet" Examples of elec tromagnets are seen in induction coils and buz.er cores, in tele. graph Joungers and relays and in oo receivers, Electro ma; po * very useful because "FOR THAT HOUSE YOU INTEND BUILDING SEE OUR STOCK OF Hemlock, Spruce, Pine HTN Ng iy RICHT PRICE the 'magnetism is controlled by variations in the curren. strength. If the bars are of hardened steel the magnetism due to the current remains after the current ceases and a permanent magnet is the result.
