Manitoba Finds Chromite Deposit Mineral of Great Value In War and Peace The discovery of chromite in South-eastern Manitoba promises to be of 'great value to the war ef- fort, says the Winnipeg Tribune. "It also carries with it the prospect , of adding to thé wealth of Mani. toba 'when peace again prevalls, Chromite is the source of chrom- jum, with which the public was familiar in peacetime as a lustrous, silvery finish on a host of manu- "factured articles, It resisted rust and tarnish, 'and seemed imperve. ious to time and wear. However, the use of chromium for plating and - finishing is only one role. of the metal, It is widely used as a steel alloy. Stainless steel, for in. stance, gets its peculiar character- istics from its chromium content. Its value in. the making.of muni- tions can readily be seen. \When added to. steel f{t increases fits strength and hardness without an accompanying brittleness, as well as making it resistant to corrosion, Pre-War Sources In the prewar timgs the prin. cipal sources of chromite were Turkey, South Africa and Rho- desia, In all cases the ore had to be transported té seaboard and thence by water to countries where cheap electric power was available to convert ft into a us- able metal, Here in Manitoba the chomite discoveries are a stone's throw from hydro-electric plants which are already sufficiently de- veloped' to supply the required en- ergy at low cost.

"Aw reet," said Jane, "but | think Joe's a bit mean. He nobbut spent sixpence on me all day." "Well, if I were thee I'd tek his sixpence back and mek him ashamed of Himself," said her mother. Late that- night, Jane knocked on Joe's door, "Ere," she said. "Tak thi six. pence back. 1 doubt if tha can afford it." "Fe," said her lover, "tha shouldn't 'a bothered to-ncet.

B Busy Time Ahead For Honey Bees 40,000,000 Pounds of Honey Thelr Goal For 1943 Canadian bees, with 'luck, will zoom to a record during 1943, hauling home enough 1/20,000th- "pound loads of honey to make a total of more than 40,000,000 pounds to sweeten the nation's diet.- Dominion Agriculture Depart. ment spokesmen said that if the "weather smiles the bees "will achieve that target for. the year, comparing with 23,205,900 pounds in" 1941 when' the honey legions often were "grounded" by unfav- orable condltions, and with about 38,000,000 pounds in 1938, the pre- vious record -year. C. B. Gooderham, Dominion apiarist, sald the Dominion's honey-producing plant 1s in good condition to meet new demands. Sugar rationing and military de- mands for honey and "beeswax have encouraged enlarged produc. tion. More than 40,000,000,000 honey bees will work to produce the ex- pected 40,000,000 pounds. They live in 436,000 colonies. Vital statistics--for the bee--in. clude the fact that each welghs about 1/5,000th pound and oan carry about halt {ts own weight in - nectar. The nectar evaporates about hall its weight in turning into honey. Officlals said that present bee- keepers are being encouraged to ©. enlarge and incrase the efficiency of their hee colonies, rather than newcomers being encouraged to enter the business on a tempor. ary basis. Not Quite Alone In Deep Shelter A sailor, whose courage at sea was the talk of every ship he sailed in, admitted a terror of air raids. So, when he was grant. ed shore leave, his 'mates were not surprised when, unashamed, he tucked his hammock under his "arm. and announced that he in. tended to swing it for the night in the deepest shelter: he could find. A . : Having selected his shelter, he .. was astonished to find it unocca- LE vied, He slung his hammock and + went to sleep. Next morning, vacating the shelter, he was greeted by an astonished police- man: "Is there anybody else down. there?" "No," the sailor replied, "I was quite alone." "Not quite," said the bobby, "there's a delayed-action bomb down there, too, I've been here . all night, waiting for it to go off."

A friend. on a farm asked Dr. Gordon S. Fulcher, a physicist of Washington, D.C., if a hive would be easier to carry if she stirred up the bees so they would fly around. This suggested the grass- hopper problem to Dr. Fulcher as - a similar but simpler cage. He has reported to the journal Sci. ence, his findings. Each grasshopper as it jumps gives a downward kick to the box, thereby increasing its weight, "While the grasshopper is in the air, the box is, to be sure, relieved of its weight, but when the hopper lands, the box again receives a downward thump. Dr. Fulcher shows mathematically that these balance out and the average weight of the change. The same applies to the bees in a closed hive: "The total average weight must be the same no mat- ter what the actions or. motions of the bees and other parts in- side the closed container may be." The same applies to any body not at the absolute zero of tem. perature, for which all the mole- cules are at rest. temperature, because of thermal agitation, many of the molecules at any given instant are in the air, so to speak. But each mole- cule as it takes off gives a down- ward kick" and again lands. The weight of the body as indicated by a balance is an average of these downward kicks and of the dead weight of those molecules that happen to be at rest. The indicated weight does not change with temperature. U. S. Prepared ~For.Gas Warfare If gas becomes a weapon of gen- eral use In this war, the Chemlcal Warfare Service of the United States Army fs ready to give It-- and equally ready to take it. Major-Gen. William N. Porter, C.W.S. chief, sald the Germans are known to have large sotres of war gas, and can be expected to use it whenever advantageous. "So far, 'in-my opinion, the only reason 'the Germans have-not used gas is that they have not needed it," he said. "We would all be very remiss, however, if we went into this without sufficient quantities of gas," he added. "We feel now. that we are ahead of Germany in the production of gas."
