Its exact composition varies according to the purpose for which It is Intended, aad tli spite of similar outward appearance*, different kinds of glass may differ greatly from one another in respect to ingredients, writes Chomas M. Beck In the Chlci».go Tribune. Ordinary window or bottle glass, which Is much the same as that used bj the ancients, is made by fusing a mixture of about six parts of silica (otherwise known as sand f>r quarts), one part of soda, and one part of lime Potash glass, used for fine tableware, contains potash Instead of the soda. A mixture of foar parts silica, one part potash, and two parts of lead oxide gives lead glass, a soft, weak, tow melting glass which, because of its clearness and sparkle, ia used for such decorative objects as cat glass and tmltatloh diamonds. It was not the cost of the materials that formerly made glass" a luxury; however. Since It Is hard and brittle in the solid state aad a thick, molasseslike fluid when belted, It cannot be cast, nor bent, nor forged Into desired shapes. It must be blown, and this used to require the hard labor of many highly skilled workmen. At present, while the better grade of goblets and vases and such still is made by hand, machines have taken over the manufacture of the less delicate but more utilitarian articles, such as milk and beer bottles. How Corn, Wheat, Oats Take Fertility of Laad A crop of corn of 25 bushels of grain, 1,500 pounds of stalks, and 250 pounds of cobs per acre will remove 89.2 pounds of nitrogen, 13.8 pounds of phosphoric acid and 27.6 pounds of potash, according to an authority In the Indiana Farmer's Guide. A crop of wheat of 25 bushels of grain, 2,500 pounds of straw per acre will remove 42.5 pounds of nitrogen, 18.6 pounds of phosphoric acid and 21 pounds of potash. A crop of oats of 25 bushels of^ralri and 1,250 pounds of straw perltere will remove 24 pounds of nitrogen. » pounds of phosphoric acid and 20.4 pounds of potash. Larger yields of these crops will, of course, remove larger amounts of fertility. How to Mcmn Plastering Plastering on plain surfaces, as on walls and ceilings, is always measured by the square yard whether it be one, two, or three-coat work. In regard to deducting for openings, customs vary In different parts of the country and with different contractors, and some allow one-half the area of openings for ordinary doors and windows, while others make no allowance for openings of less than 7 square yards. Soffits of stairs, closets, strips less than. 12 inches wide, and other more difficult sections are generally figured at a higher rate. The home builder should know which method Is being used In checking cost estimates.--Washington Post How Snake Oils Shedding Skin AS a rule, a snake about to shed Its skin exudes a fluid, which is nature's way of helping the reptile over a difficult business. But when a specimen has been off color for some time previously, this does not happen, and so. the zoo keepers come to Its aid. They begin by soaking the snake In warm water, and then wipe his body over with olive oil. The result of these ministrations Is often miraculous. The snake simply walks out of Its old skin, leaving It, like a cast-off stocking, behind him.--Answers Magazine. How Pine-Needle Pillews Are Made Pine needle pillows are generally made of balsam. The needles are picked green and stripped. They may be dried a little before placing In the Inner lining of cambric, or they may be put In before drying. In stripping the needles only the short tips are reserved for the pillow. The pillow should be shaken frequently and the needles thoroughly mixed. Popular sizes for these pillows are 7 by 11 Inches and 11 by 13 inches.

Specialist Urges Care of Vitamins ™ Well-Balanced, VJriried Diet Prevents Much Illness By EDITH M. BARBER YOU are building a house, would you rather have Ulee or window panes or floor boards, or cement or plaster or girders or rafters?" asks Dr. Leslie J. Harris in his book, "Vitamins," published by the Macmillan company. Doctor Harris' question was actually an answer to some one who had asked him to name the foods most important to good nutrition. Doctor Harris makes the point that through the consumption of a well-rounded diet, much unnecessary illness can be eliminated and that health, strength and, therefore, happiness may be at least partially insured. With the exception of vitamin D, all necessities for the normal person will be provided by the proper choice of the daily food. Plenty of milk, eggs, vegetables and fruits, with some meat, fish, sugars, starches and fats, just those things which provide us with attractive meals are needed daily. For vitamin D in these days in this climate, when our bodies are not directly exposed to sunlight, we must depend upon fish liver oils or upon irradiated food products to provide the necessary amount. This is particularly important during childhood and for expectant and nursing mothers. Extra amounts of other vitamins may be required if certain conditions of undernutrition or disease exist because they have been lacking. Vitamins have curative as well a? preventive characteristics.

REGISTRATION OPEN FOR iOBLBBS RAIL WORKERS Railroad workers who ar4 unem ployed and who earned $150 o^ more in 1938 in railroad work may now get benefits under the Railroad Unemployment Insurance Act Which went into active operation July 1, the Railroad Retirement Board pointed out today. Such unemployed workers should register and file a claim for the benefits at the last railroad for which they worked or, if located at some distance away from their last job, at the nearest office of a railroad. The Railroad Unemployment Insurance Act ia a Federal Act establishing a national system of unemployment insurance for railroad workers. The Act is administered by the Railroad Retirement Board which also administers the Railroad Retirement Act. The plan of operation worked out in co-operation with railroad em* pioyers and labor organization provides for prompt handling of claims and payment of benefits. All the unemployed applicant has to do is to go to the foreman on his last job who, if not himself authorized to accept registrations, will be able immediately to put the applicant in touch with the person who is so authorized. The importance of regisrtation by the worker when he becomes unemployed or as soon thereafter as possible, the Board points out, lies in the fact that his days of unemployment cannot count either toward his "waiting period" or as days of unemployment for which he will receive benefits until he registers and properly files his claim. BenefVts under the Railroad Unemployment Insurance Act are paid for each day over seven that an eligible railroad worker is unemployed in any fifteen consecutive days. This means that if a worker is totally unemployed for the fifteen days he can draw eight days of benefits. If he should be unemployed eight days, he would get one day of benefit; if unemployed nine days, two days of benefit, and so on. The benefit rates vary from $1.75 to $3 per day, depending on the worker's earnings for 1938. Thus total' benefits in any fifteen-day period of total unemployment will range from $14 to $24. The most a totally unemployed worker can draw in any twelve-month period is eighty times his daily benefit rate or from fl40 to $240, scaled according to what he earned in the raidroad industry in 1938. To be eligible for unemployment insurance benefits under the Railroad Unemployment Insurance Act, an employee must meet the following requirements: 1. He must have earned $150 or more from a railroad or other employer covered by the Railroad Unemployment Insurance Act during the calendar year 1938. 2. He must reister and serve a waiting period of fifteen consecutive days in which there are at least eight days of unemployment. 3. He must not have become disqualified for benefits due to any of the causes specifically set forth in the Act. All further information with reference to eligibility or disqualifications for benefits will be provided to the worker at the time he registers. Up-saA-Dewn Commuters.
