FIFTY MILES OF COAL Four coalcutters, built by a Scot- tish firm, have dust been shipped to Chile to join the 17 already at work there. These machines, the most powerful of their kind, carry a chain armed with picks which can cut not only coal, but harder material, In- cluding some building stone. The endurance of the machines, Which are at work iu all the coal- fields of the world, can be gauged by the fact that one such machine has for a whole year been cutting 320 yards 00 coal in every working day of six and a half hours.

Bowden, of Rothamated Experimental Station, England, Inas 'achieved a scientific triumph. His collaborator was a goldfish. Studying crinkles and leaf -Poll, deadly potato diseases, this investi- gator secured evidence that they are caused by plant parasites so small that no microscope will reveal them. Mr. Baw(leu decided to secure vis- ibility by plass. I3e incubated the organism (viruses) in liquid until there were billions of them. He then held this vessel before a special light. It revealed nothing. The billions of plant death -dealers remained Invisible. Perhaps htey would be visible if all pointed in the same direction, like logs on a river? Mr. Bowden decided to experiment. He was faced with the problem of creating within the glass vessel con- taining the viruses rivel'like streams of moving Water. Deciding that the fast -moving goldfish might solve this problem, be placed one in the jar. At once the invisible hosts of death became vis - able.
