COASTANDCEODETIC SURVEY A Descriptive Handbook Has Been Is sued by the Department of Commerce Washington, D. C., Feb. 19.—Tlio Department of Commerce has issued es pecially for distribution at the Pana pamphlet entitled "United States Coast and Geodetic Survey, Descrijrtdon of its Work, Methods and Organiza tion." While this work is intentited for the general reader it also gives a concise account of the more important scien tific features of the work of the Survey and of improvements that have been made in recent years in instruments to hydrography there is a description of the wire drag, an apparatus so val uable in discovering hidden dangers that escape detection by the ordinary methoil of sounding. , In the section relating to tides is a brief do -cription of the improved tide predicting machine which with one op erator predicts the tides for one year in advance for any port, and does the work of 100 men. To set the machine for any station and tabulate the tides for a year for any port takes not moro than 12 hours. In (he article on base lines there is a description of the modern method of measurement with tapes of invar met al now used in the Survey to the ex clusion of any other method. The in var metal is an alloy of nickel and steel, the advantage of which for this and many other purposes is that its rate of expansion and contraction un der changes of temperature is about 1-25 that of steel, so that the im portant source of error due to tempera ture changes is practically eliminated. The use of tapes luas decreased the cost of base measurement by aibout 35 per cent, and greatly increase*! the rapidity of the work. Under the head of astronomy is a description of the Talcott methodof observing latitude by means of which results of superior accuracy nre at tained. This method bas long been used by the Survey in precise determi nations. The instruments used in the determination of longitude by the tele graphic method are also described. The use of a motor truck for the transportation of parties engaged in latitudo work is mentioned as having increased the rapidity and decreased the cost of such work by a large per cent. Thero are nuemrous illustrations of instruments anil apparatus, parties at work in the field, etc., and maps show ing the extent and character of the work. When the survey was begun under Ferdinawd R. Hassler the entire coast of the United States was on tho Atlan tic. and Gulf of Mexico. The acquisi tion of California, Oregon and 'Washing ton, and later of Alaska, Porto Tfieo, Hawaii and the Philippine Islands, greatiy extended the scope of the Sur vey and brought new problems to bo sfllved. The extension of the triaugula tion into the interior so as to form a geodetic connection between the Atlan tic and Pacific coasts; the extension of this system so as to furnish accurate ly located geographic positions and elevations in all parts of the United States; and the beginning of a syste matic magnetic survey of the whole country, are among the important works that have been undertaken since the original plan of Hassler was adopt ed. The results of the operations of this Bureau are of importance to the navi gator, the surveyor, the engineer, and to all who are interested in works of public improvement reuiring accurate surveys as their basis. The publication may bo obtained without charge from the Division of Publications, Department of Commerce. GYM CLASS IN CHARGE Meeting at Y. W. C, A. to Be Addressed by ttafe Rev. Henry Hanson The V.

D C., Feb 19—A United Stltl n e " or ß»uized by the united States Department of Agrieul tuie 8 experiment station in the' Ha have beetnff- • Pri f M which less than t° T P inea pple» are less than the cost of production. The Hawaiian pineapple grower to-day has to expend lrom sl2 to sls per ton offered h C ® /!'" f ruit ' where »s the price tn S I y ! h ®V nerß rttD^s fr »'» s'■> and one 7 f"/u° r filst "K ra de pineapples and one-hait these prices for second srower i , a result the small hU frLi 3 f nOV ! ? eekll, S a market for his fresh fru't in the United States. hnrdfv V business of shipping can wlthl t Carn . 6d 0,1 satisfactorily without organization and it is to help out in this connection that the new t« lik on i organized, according to the latest report of the Hawaii ex periment station. • ( tw l l ?!*" su W stcd in the report that better arrangements could bV made if there wore a branch of the marketing division in San Francisco, wHich should act an u central office for fresh pineapple shipments. This oflice could undoubtedly prevent the succes -8I°" .°i bar " and flooded markets which has characterized the previous condition of pineapple shipments. The same oflice could also do val uable service in handling other Ha waiian products, such as sweet pota toes, onions, bananas, beans, coffee cocoanuts and ktikni nuts. The last mentioned product is particularly val-i uable on account of its large oil con-' tent. The army is a most important factor >n the development of diversified farming i n Hawaii. This branch of our government uses large quantities of corn, eggs, potatoes, poultry and other products, and the authorities are desir ous of having the territory develop an independent source of food supply, as the possibilities of development along these lines are very great in these is lands. Sudan grass, sorghum, legumes and other forage plants have already been planted by the department's ex penment station in co-operation with Ihe military post in order to furnish green feed for the horses. Red and white Bermuda onion seed are doing well i n Hawaii. Eight acres of onions yielded 32,210 pounds last year, not counting small onions of pickling size. Sugar cane and sweet com have also made good yields. An American variety of okra which has attained a height of from 7 to 8 feet has been grown on heavy clay soil in our little possession of Guam, far out on the Pacific. This variety is called White Velvet, and the depart ment's experiment station in Guam ex pects much of this variety. A great, number of American vege tables have been found to grow easily in Guam, including cucumbers, lettuce, radishes and beans. Eggplant pro duces heavy yields of excellent quality. One variety introduced with success has been the New York Improved Spineless. The pepper is also produced with the greatest ease and is much rel ished by the natives. Eor five years | special attention has been given to growing the tomato in Guam, but until this year all efforts have failed. Dur ing the past season, however, a number of tomatoes were produced, which, al though very small, were mild and savory and should prove prolific. In sect enemies have so far been very eas ily controlled in the case of practically all these vegetables. * GRACE BOARD MEETS Harry B.
