WE ALL USE THIS GUM HOW THE STICKY STUFF ON POST. AGE STAMPS IS MADE. i Coating Mn.t Be Uniform—Greatest Care Exerclaecl In Placing Zt on the Bolter Takers—l9,ooo,ooo Stamps Gummed In Eight-Hour Day. Not one person In five hundred who f licks a postage stamp ever dreams of i the precautions tnken by the bureau of engraving and printing to secure a uniform coating of the best adhesive 1 and purest gum on the back of the stamps. The process of gumming postage stamps Is as much an exact science ; as the building of the large guns at the Washington Navy Yard, says the •A Star. This work, like that of prac lß. tlcally all other similar kinds for the Government, is done at the bureau 1 of engraving and printing, and so ac te curate is the process of gumming stamps that when the work is finished |r the stamps are tested to discover If the coating of mucilage on the sheet 1 varies as much as seven ten-thou sandths of a pound. The room where the stamps are /gummed is airy and well lighted; it is eighty by fifty feet and contains at present eight gumming machines. The stamps after being printed reach the gumming room from the examining [ room in sheets eighteen and one-half by twenty-three Inches, each sheet containing 400 stamps. The sheets to be gummed are fed by women operatives on an endless chain belt, held by grippers. This chain belt t passes under a glass gumming roller, f which is automatically coated with i the exact proportion of mucilage to be received by the sheet. This mucilage . is fed to the roller from a small tank just'above. The gummed sheets are XL then carried by the endless chain belt A into a covered drying box fifty feet JH long, which coutaius colls of steam pipes, which produce a temperature of 130 degrees Fahrenheit. The sheets of stamps, after a slow journey of one minute, emerge from the other end of the drying box with the mucilage perfectly dry. The machine automatically delivers the sheets on a table to a lady oper ative, who, by passing her experienced hand over the gummed surface, de termines if the sheets are properly gummed and if they are running through the machines at just the right tiegrce of speed to insure their being properly dried. After being gummed the sheets are rolled to take out the curl of the paper, and are again Inspected to see if there are any defects in the gumming. If they are found to be perfect they are then counted and pressed and sent to the perforating room, the process of perforating being in itself an ex ceedingly interesting one. The care taken to insure perfect uni , formity in the gumming of the stamps is not the least interesting part of the work. Every morning when the ma chine pressmen report for duty they are each given a blank form, which they must fill out during the day as their work progresses. A record is also kept on the blank form of the number of printed sheets of stamps gummed, so that the fore man, by a glance at the graduated scale and the number of printed sheets gummed, can tell at any moment if each sheet is receiving its exact pro portion of gum. This system is nn elaborate check on the gummed sheets, and was de signed to insure the proportionate quantity of gum on each sheet of stamps. Every afternoon the work men are given credit for the amount of gum they return to the Government, and the balance is struck between the gum used, and the total number of sheets gummed. Careful experiments and exact scientific calculations have determined the proportion of gum uud paper. To meet the different conditions of the seasons of the year the quality of the gum Is changed four times during each year. The winter or soft gum Is used during the mouths of Novem ber, December, January, February and March. The summer or hard gum is used during the months of June, July, August nnd September, and the spring and fall gums are used In Oc tober, April and May. The summer gum Is the hardest, and test resists the humidity during the hot mouths of summer, likewise preventing the sheets cf stamps sticking together in the postcliices of the country. The winter gum is used to enable the stamps to resist frosty weather, which often causes the stamps to curl and crack. The intermediate gum Is used to meet the conditions of half warm and half cold weather. lu Of course, the most thorough pre * cautions are taken to begin with in procuring the very best quality of ad hesive postal gum. This gum is de rived from dexterine, a product se cured in the process of making etarch from potatoes, corn nnd cassava root. The starch obtained from the fore going vegetables is treated by being roasted at a temperature of about COO degrees in lt3 early stages, when it later turns to dexterine, which is later converted into postal gum. If carried further than postal gum it changes to grape sugar or glucose. The best postal gum for stamps is that which contains the least uncon verted starch and little, if any, glu cose. The material used for the purpose of making stamp gum looks very much like flour except In color, and Is per fectly clean and wholly vegetable. When the postal gum Is delivered in bulk at the bureau by the contractors It Is contained In double sacks of 200 pounds each. Before using every consignment Is carefully inspected and Is subjected to a microscopic examina tion and chemical analysis by the bureau's chemist This is to discover If the gum Is of the best quality and up to the standard furnished by the successful bidders. It Is next tested to see If It meets the working require ments of gumming stamps. The qual ities required by the Government in the gum are adhesiveness, luster, ab sence of grit, flexibility, resistance to humidity and color. If the gum does not meet all these requirements It Is rejected. At the present time about SOO pounds of dry gum Is used dally, and the contractor for the present fiscal year will be required to furnish about 280,000 pounds. The average cost of the dry postal gum Is about six cents per pound, and thus the dally cost to the Government of gum for stamps Is about S4B. Down In the basement of the bureau there are three big steam jacketed kettles of the capacity of 100 gallons each, where the gum is made by an established formula. This Is done by mixing the dry gum with water, and by carefully boiling It until the gum Is cooked. The kettles are exceeding ly clean, and the boiling must be at just the proper degree. After the gum Is boiled it is pumped to a settling tank, where it Is strained and reduced to the proper specific gravity. It is next pumped up four stories to the stamp gumming room, where it is received and again strained Into a large tank fifteen feet above the floor. Another test is then made for tem perature and specific gravity and the gum is ready to be conveyed by pipes to the small tanks ovor the gumming rollers, upon which it drips in tiny streams. The greatest cleanliness Is required at every step lu the process of boil ing and handling the gum, and as tho guin Is purely vegetable, the stamp llcker need not have the slightest hesitancy In applying his moistened tongue to tho stamp. Tho eight machines now In the gumming room have a capacity for 01,000 sheets or 10,000,000 stamps, in one day of eight hours' work. Both United States postage stamps and documentary and proprietary revenue stamps are gummed by these ma chines. At the beginning of the Spanish-American war, when there was an urgent demand for war rev enue stamps, there were only six of these machines In operation. They were run night and day to meet the emergency, and gummed 107,000 sheets or 41,000,000 stamps, every twenty-four hours. This large number of stamps furnished Uncle Sam with some of the sinews of war during those trying times. The average consump tion of ordinary postage stamps at this time is about 15,000,000 a day. Bathers' l'erils in salt Lake. "I have never seen the Atlantic or tho Pacific Ocean or the Gulf of Mex ico, but have had some experience with salt water nevertheless," said George Y. Russell, of Park City, Utah. He is an official of the great silver mine near Park City, which extends deeper than any other in the world. "Salt Lake Is a remarkable sheet of water in many ways, and bathing in it possesses features which are unique. It is very invigorating and refreshing, to be sure, but It takes some time to become accustomed to the extraordi nary buoyancy of the water. It is quite impossible to sink or to drown in the lake, but many people have been killed by the water. When there is a breeze and spray is dashed upon bathers the water is so densely im pregnated with salt that the liquid portion evaporates very quickly and leaves a deposit of salt on the skin. "On several occasions people have drifted out while bathing or been wrecked and thrown overboard and afterward found dead on top of the water, choked to death by tho accumu lation of salt in their mouths and nos trils. Ordinary salt water bathing, as I discovered to-day. Is very different from that in the Salt Lake. I learned that I could enjoy salt water bathing at Chesapeake Bench and took a trip there. It is certainly very pleasant to bathe In water that is salt, but not so rait as In Utah. But the accommo dations for the bathers at Salt Lako far surpass, so I am told, anything in America."—Washington Post. One River Itoba Another. Lhe modern study of physiography has made U3 acquainted with many instances of a struggle for existence and survival among rivers. Tho most careful student of nature in former years never dreamed that this great law applies to large streams separated from each other by a range of hills, and yet recent investigation shows that tho two longest rivers la England —tho Severn and the Thames—are struggling, cue against tho other. Tho Cctswold Ilills lie between the valleys along which they flow, and explora tions lately made shew that tho Severn has been eating backward among these hills, where softer strata un derlie them, and has thus succeeded In diverting to itself some of the head waters that fcrmerly flowed into tho Thames. To put It in this way is like endowing an inanimate object with intelligent purpose, but the more one studies nature the more evidcnco of an actual struggle appears. Curiou. Cottages. Near Wakefield, In Yorkshire, a most comfortable cottage has been made, so far as the walls are concerned, of a number of great drain pipes left by a contractor for years, whilst the roof consists of the refuse of an oilcloth factory. There are In England alone half a dozen cottages, not to speak of many summer houses, made wholly out of old preserved provision cans. The house of a foreman "winder" of a huge colliery near Bamsley contains five rooms, yet the whole of the outer wulls and roof are made of meat and other Una A GLOWING REPORT.

Indian apolis, Ind.; Joseph Young, 01% Stats •treet, Columbus, Ohlct To My Many Friends: I am pleased to make a report to you of the pleasant visit my wife and I had in Western Canada. Wo visited the territories of Alberta, 'Asslnlbola and Saskatchewan, and found them far surpassing our imag ination, but little did I expect to find •uch rich, loamy soil, so much of it, and so uniform in its level prairie lay. I do think the soil of Canada as a rule equals, if not oxcells, tho finest prairie farm lands of Indiana. These lands are lmmenso in their richness, and when once tho sod is rotted nnd pulvorlzed, it is as pllnblo and as easily cultivatou as Indiana sandy ■oil. Western Canada, from my point of view, offers as flno opportunities for mlxod farming as any place in my knowledge. The long sunshiny days, together with tho rich soil produce very lino wheat, oats, barley, flax and other ceroal products. There is scarce ly any attempt to raise corn, except early varieties for table use. The season is too short to depend upon maturing field corn. From tho stand point of getting this land ready for tho plow, I must say that I never saw such a vast extent, practically all ready, so all that one has to do is to hitch up the plow and go to work. This is not the enso with ail the Cana dian land, however; some of it has quite a bit of timber, much of it may be called brush land and some of it has lovely forest groves, dotted here and there, thereby covering u hundred and sixty acres. I have no doubt but that this coun try excels as a grazing or rnnchlr,; country, because they have such rich grass, having nnd abundance of rain to keep It fresh. Tney also have plenty of water stronms, and as a rule water may be reached at a depth of from twenty to forty feet. From this you see there can be plenty of hay mown for winter feeding, and liavo had reliable farmers to tell that their stock will .feed on hay alone, and bo ready for market in the spring. Upon inquiring about the expense of raising a steer, a farmer replied that he did not consider it would cost any more than $4.00 or SO.OO to develop a three-year-old steer. I truly think Canada offers a fine opening for a young man or a man who is renting land in Indiana. One hundred and sixty acres of good black land will cost you only SIO.OO ($10.00) at the time you enter it, and by plow ing and cultivating five acres each year for three years, gives you one hundred and sixty acres of good land for SIO.OO. This land can be bought from the railroad companies, private corporations or tho Government for SB.OO to $4.00 per acre. From a financial standpoint, I be lievo that for a series of yenrs (five) a young man can make SIO.OO In Canada, whereas lie would only make SI.OO here, and I feel sure that I spent more money to get my eighty-acre farm in White County, Indiana, cultivated, than It would cost me to cultivate eight hundred acres In Canada. This may seoin a strong view to take of tho matter, but when you take into consideration tho clearing, ditching, fencing and the expensive breaking In of the stumps, and then compare the expense to that of land needing only the breaking, you will conclude that It Is not such a wild or exaggerated statement as you might at first think. I enjoyed the balmy, breezy atmos phere, which was bracing und refresh ing, and the cool nights which made It uo pleasant for sleep. On making inquiries regarding the winters in this country, I learned that tho people never suffer from the cold, as the weather is dry and invigorat ing, and in a great many places farm ers and herders allow their stock to run outside the year round. One great advantage to the settlers In Western Canada Is the free cream eries established by the Government, and run exclusively in tho Interest of the farmer. I visited Thomas Daley, n farmer near Edmonton, Alberta, who showed me oats he had raised, some of which took the llrst prize at the Paris Ex position last year. The some yielded 110 bushels to the acre In 1800. l'ours truly, PRANK FISHER, Mexico, lud.

"One of the most curious of the many things made nowadays of raw hide," said a man who bundles such articles In his business, "is the raw hide pinion, or cogwheel. You might think that the teeth of such a wheel would break down and wear off quick er than those of an iron wheel, but as a matter of fact they do not break, and a rawhide pinion will wear as long as an Iron pinion, if not longer. "Such pinions are made of many lay ers of rawhide pressed Bolidly to gether, and bolted through and through to metal plates placed on the sides. The teeth cut across the face of the wheel thus formed are, of course, eacli composed of many lay ers of the thoroughly compacted raw hide standing edgewise. "Rawhide pinions are used for many purposes. One of their great advan tages Is found in their liolselessness. They are used in machine shops against iron gear, so as to make less noise; they are used for motor pinions on street railway cars, and so on. "Another rather curious thougli now somewhat common use for rawhide Is in the making of maulii and mallets having heads of rawhide, and hide faced hammers. These are put to a great variety of uses, as for poundin on dies and punches and on polished metal surfaces. "Rawhide is used for bell cord in street cars, for all manner of straps and for shoe and boot laces. It is used in the manufacture of artificial limbs, and for trunk handles nnd for trunk binding, for washers, for many sorts of harness and saddlery goods, and for whips and lariats, nnd not the least of Its uses is in the manufacture of va rious kinds and all sizes of belting."— New York Sun. Immcian instanced. South Africa is a country of immense distances, and it is interesting, for the purpose of realizing its area, to recall the great extent of the railway systems. In the Cape Colony the open mileage of the Cape Government railways is about 2000 miles, with 300 miles under construction, and 350 miles of privately owned lines. In Natal there are upward of 000 miles open, and short extensions, totalling sixty miles, on the north and south coasts, and between Dundee and Vry heid, under construction. In the Transvaal Colony there are 800 fniles open to traffic and 200 miles under construction, exclusive of the Vee reeniging-Itand line. The Orange River Colony possesses about 400 miles of open mileage, and about 100 miles under construction. Rhodesia, although only a decade old, already possesses nbout 1000 miles of open railway, and its three main sections under construction—the Buluwnyo- Zambesi, Buluwayo-Snlisbury and Buluwayo-Tuli—aggregate about 000 miles. Altogether the open mileage in Soutli Africa amounts to upward of 5000 miles, with at least 2000 miles under construction. The figures are exclusive of the projected extensions for which funds have not yet been pro vided.—lndian Engineering. A Submarine Dwelling Place. According to a London newspaper a submarine dwelling is going to be built by a well-known Marseilles firm for the Countess de Montagne; and the experiment is an especially inter esting one, for should it prove success ful the solving of the submnrlne prob lem will have been intimately bound up with a latter-day romance. The Countess is said to have become weary of the world nnd that society In which she was a brilliant leader, and to have made up her mind that she will re nounce the ordinary pleasures of life. So, having plenty of money and the gift of invention, the Countess is busy preparing to seek seclusion beneath the surface of the Mediterranean in the submarine dwelling she is having built. The Countess knows that the gossips of the Paris boulevards, when they relate her story, call her Lo Mystere, hence she hi s given her boat that name. World's Smallest Watch. A watchmaker at Zurich, writes a Geneva correspondent, is exhibiting in his shop window a wonderful pieco of Swiss workmanship in the shape of the smallest watch that has ever been manufactured. The watch, which is In the shape of a rose, is so minute that a strong mag nifying glass is necessary to read the hands, and when winding up the tiny article it Is necessary to use a spe cially prepared contrivance for this purpose. The manufacturer refuses to sell the watch, which keeps excellent time. One rich customer offered .$ 1000 for the curiosity, but this sum was refused.
