spiee and dialomatic agents are play-

to control even an ounce of the -noble
metal," an It IS ktIOWn to geeloglStS,
so valuable has iL become and so nee-
' essary to the prosecution of the world
War.
Rin:ssia Chief Source.
The United States Government re-
cently took a hand in the game by
commandeering all unworked plati-
num in that country, setting therefor
a price of x;105 an ounce, as compared
with $22.55 ten years ago. Even this
action, however, has not obtained
sufficient of the metal for Wear purp-
oses. Officials who failed to heed the
warnings of platinum experts at the
beginning of the Wear are wondering
how they can retrieve their error in
not vigorously meeting the national
necessity by tiring every legitimate
means to obtain platinum. For the
total amount of known platinum
throughout the world is only 1,000,01;0
ounces. Much of that is virtually ir-
reclaimable through use in dentalwork
and personal jewelry, and the output,
since the Rueeian debacle, has fallen
to a fraction of what it was in times
of peace. •
It is the last reason which is giving
officials so much concern. Russie has
been the source of most of the World's
platinum and in 1913 was credited
with a production of 250,000 troy
ounces, Colombia with 15,000, New
South Wales and Tasmania 1,375,
United States 483, Borneo and Sum-
atra 200 and Canada 00.
Germans Get Output.
The German invasion of Russia gave
the enemy the npportunity of replen-
ishing his stocks cf platinum, to the
detriment of the Allies. Mining in
Russia virtually has ceased now, even
if the metal could be shipped out of
the country, and the world looks to
Colombia for platinum. Suggestions
for a Government monopoly of Mail- I
num have been advanced in the Col-
ombian Congress. Whatever action
is taken the fortunes of war Will mean
wealth for the southern republic.
Platinum was diseovered in what is
ueW Colombia in 1;:35 by a Spaniard
named Don Antonio de Ulloa, who ac-
companied a French scientific expedi
tion, and his account of it was the first I
information regarding the metal to be
brought to the attention of Europeans.
Its resistibility to acids and the diffi-
culty of Working it were remarked
upon, but it was not considered to be
nearly as precious as gold and was
used at times by counterfeiters as a
basis for coins. It was not until the
middle of the nineteenth century that
the demand for platinum for use in
chemical laboratories and for electri-
cal uses brought its value up to the;
point where it ranked as one of the i
most precious metals.
More Valuable Than Gold.
In the placer mining of gold in Co- i
lombia it was formerly thrown away;
as waste, and when the rise in price
made it more valuable than gold the'
ground on Which the waste had been
thrown became in its turn a field for i
mining operations, and even the!
streets of the principal center of gold'
refining in Colombia, Quibdo, were torn j
up and the soil washed for particles of I
the new treasure. One man tore
down his store in order to get at the
ground benath and found so much
platinum that he was enabled to re-
build and stake an extra $4,000 for
his trouble.
Platinum is recovered principally -
from the beds of streams, the particles
having been deposited there through
erosion of large rocks classified geo-
logically as "tertiary conglomerates."
The platinum grains are found with
gold, the proportion varying from 5 to
50 per cent, of. platinum. The two
metals are recovered by washing the
sand tnul gravel of streams.

WOMEN FIRST TO GREET KING.
War Workers Congratulated Their
Majesties on Sliver Wedding
Anniversary.
Three thousand women engaged In
war work, representing twenty-two or-
ganizations, presented King George
and Queen Mary with an address on
June 29, expressing loyalty and extend-
ing congratulations upon the silver
wedding anniversary of the royal
couple, which was celebrated on July
O. It was the first time any British
ruler had received such a deputation
of women. There were no precedents,
therefore, to serve as a glide for mar-
shalling the parade and for the recep-
tion.
Among the organizations represent-
ed were those of the nurses, the muni-
tion workers, the workers on farms
and those mere actively connected
With the operations in the field. An
address was made by Mrs. F. II. Dur-
ham, chief woman inspector in the
Ministry of Labor. Bing George re-
plied with an address to the women.
The King spoke as follows:
e are touched by the thought that
lho first expression of loyalty and de-
votion on the occasion of our silver,
wedding should come from this re-
presentativo body of women who, by
their services, have assisted the State
in the full mobilization of its man-
power.
"In our visits to various centres we
have had opportunities of seeing and
appreciating the great part which all
the women of our ]and are tatting in I
all the breeches of war service, and
everywhere we have. been tilled with
admiration at their achievemeute, an
admiration which we believe to be j
shared by the whole nation. When the
history of the tear is written, no chap.,
ter will be more remarkable than that !

Ru'l'e:, although great, did not ins
press themselves so strongly on the
public Mind as they do now, owing le
the feet that, evert If other lduropean
enlll•ef s of supply dried up, here was
still something to be had from the
United Slat CS.
R'hetl the United States finally
reeked herself on Ilse side of the allies
the question gradually arose how Nor-
way, dependentas she is on her im-
ports for the most important necessi-
ties, would manage to get on in the
long run under these altered condi-
tions.
It Was obvious that an arrangement
ought to be made, and in order to selt-
tie, the question a delegation to Wash.
ington was appointed under the lead-
ersip of Professor Neilsen. The pinch
of the rationing system has now be-
gun to make itself felt, and stricter
rules are ofHelaily announced. Nor-
wegian trade and industry are handi-
capped for avant of regular supplies,
the coast traffic is disorganized acid
Norwegian resoureee is general are
diminishing at an alarming rate.
Traveler•6 fresh from Germany are
surprised at Norway's scanty rations
of bread, which they flay are even
entailer than they are there.
It is a matter of the highest inmate
niece to Norway to procure at the
earliest possible date as many Re-
ports as possible. The'supply of food-
stuffs and raw materials needed by
the population has, from a statistical
point of view, been much misunder-
stood abroad. Owing to the fact that
several countries from which, in time
of peace, Norway was drawing rather
heavy imports, have been virtually
closed --for example, Russia and Prus-
sia as cereal exporting countries ---
Norway her; been bound to draw more
heavily on America and other oversea
countriea.
Tide fact has been overlooked and
too willingly it has been believed in
!the Allied countries that the greater
part of these imports were destined
for Germany. Nor has it been realized
either by the authorities or tate general
public of the Allied countries that the
economic expansion of Norway during
the last few years has neeeesitated a
!larger supply of raw materials.
The vast majority of Norwegians ex-
pect nothing from Germany. Iter dis-
graceful subr»ariue war, which during
the last year has inflicted upon us a
loss of 435 vessels and 700 lives,
speaks volumes, It also is a public
secret that her own means are very
scanty.
On the other hand, it is no use to
deny that Norway is largely depend-
ent on England, while at the same
time Norwegians feel entitled to say
that in view of the services rendered
to England and her allies through the
courage and intrepidity of the Nor
woman seamen and the energetic ,
straightforwardness of the shipowners
they have a reasonable claim upon,
their gratitude.
Thinks England Ungrateful.
Norwegians regret that this fact is
far less understood in England than
it ought to be, and express the opinion'
that this state of things not only lin-
pairs
mpairs Norwegian friendahlp for Eng-
land, but is detrimental to British
commereint illteresir.
Through their cruel treatment, of de-
fenceless Norwegian seamen, the Ger-;
mans have gradually lost all sympathy I
in this country, England's escutcheon !
is untarnished, but Norwegians toll -
eider it their ditty to tell her that the
treatment to which they have often :
been subjected by British officials has
created a painful impression in this j
country. Norwegians regard it as un-!
reasonable that their authorities and ,
the Norwegian business cotnmmlity j
should be measured by the standerd
applied to Germans. When they
pledge their word, they meati no less
than the British to keep its They do
not regard their treaties as "scraps
of paper,” but as obligations, They
claim to be considered as gentlemen,
and are not willing to stand the pin- I
pricks of sueplcion,
Over and over again prominent maul
of business have told ate of their ex• t
periences. They describe the sus-
picious attitude of the British author',
ties as entirely unfounded, and say
that. 1t would be rldiculons were It not
leo detrimental to important interests.
A leading shipowner In conversation
with me said;
"if England had been lees suspicious
toward res wee should have had con-
siderably more supplies in this coun-
try at the present time, and England
a considerably heavier Norwegian
tonnage at her disposal, to her own
benefit and talose of her all'ee,"
These words express the general
opinion of all Norwegians entitled to
speak with authority in these matters.
They conekler it a matter of impor-
lance that the two kindred nations
should never Cease to meetone an-
otiter in a friendly and businesslike
epirit of =turd confidenee,
only at the cost of much selfrbtlel flee i
and endurance.
1I trust this procession to -day will)
bring home to those who have not yet'
realized It the country's need of their
help. Sure in the hope that your la-
bors soon may have their reward in
that decisive victory and enduring
peace toward which we, with all our .
brave allies, are ever striving, I wish
you god -speed. lit that happy day it
will be your proud satisfaction to feel

ing these prieelees results."

Use Your Fresh Vegetables.
Now is the time to use the fresh
vegetables which the war gardeners
have been so assiduously striving to
cultivate. We must never forget that
the use of these short-lived greens
results in the liberation of the more
concentrated and staple foods for
overseas.
Usually there is great waste where
garden truck is concerned. It seems
so abundant that we do not value it
sufficiently. As a matter of fact, by
the judicious use of vegetables many
tneatlese meals can be prepared, and
the housewife shonlcl regard them dur-
ing the hot weather, when appetites
are jaded.
Tho French people are now reduced
to three meatless clays a week of nec-

ly.

sections of the grain growing areas in
Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Alberta
is Indicated in the weekly crop report

who report that as yet the drought
had not affected any damage, and that
rain would entirely relieve the situ, -

Catch Hold of the Golden Bird.
There are two ways of saving mon-
ey: Some men get hold of the golden
goose and proceed to pull all her
feathers out. Then they squeeze her
' so she will never be good for any-
thing more. What is left they put
in their socks or hide in a crevice in
the wall. Other men get hold of a
golden goose, promptly put some eggs
under her, and in a short while there
are more golden eggs—and so on.
Then the surplus is put into thrift
stamps, thus allowing others in need
to supply their wants.
The ueeful dollar is the one that
continues to serve its owner and his
Country year in and year out.

New Air Raid Alarms.
For the suburbs a new system of air
raid alarms haft been devised to sup-
plement the sirens and the firemen's
signals, says a Paris despatch. The
new device is the use of a sort of
rocket, which, when lighted, produces
two explosions, one as it leaves the
ground, the other at a considerable
height in the air.
