Tn 1897 tin sold for 13 cents a pound; in 1910 it had qowmbled in Vajue; and the first of the present year it hq reached 60 cents a pound, and BOW one dollar is demanded. There are no dependable tin mines in America, and the supply is obtain- ed in the little island of Banca, st off the coast of Java, which has been reacning the United States of late across the Paeific jmstead of by wey of the Mediterranean as under pof- mal eonditions: and this is alse true of a part of the tin of the Malayas Peninsula. and the eomparatively small quantity of tin now being dra¥n from mines in China, which are re- ported at the presemt time as “omt of the market on aceeunt of fAoeds” which prevent transportation to the Hongkong smelters. Tin continues to be greatly in de- mand by the industries of the United States is pow tumning out over $104,- 000,000 worth annually. The value of the tin imported imto the country since the bezinning of the tinplate industry in 1893 has aggre- maied appreximately $700,000,000, abowt 90 per ceni. of it uged in the mapu- facture of tinplate, of which the pre- tion the United States has own from 00,000 pounds In 1862 to 2,766,401227 pounds in 1917 The growth in world production of aluminum, which has been suggested as a poscibl esubstitute for tin in cer- tain lines has beep much mere rapid in recent years than that of tin. Tin production of the world grew from 77.200 tens in 1909 to 117,700 tops in 1016, while aluminum produetion gzrew from 7200 toms in 1900 to 135,000 tons in 1816, More than half of the world's aluminum is praduced in this country while we are entirely dependent upon foreign countries for tin.

When a depth bomb is diecharged and does not cripple or destroy the German under-sea boat, as some times hap- pens, a quantity of oil is released by seme device of the submarine and Quickly rises to the water's surface. The hope of the German U-bpat ceptain is that the commander of the destroyer will see the oil, believe that the submarine has been wrecked and drop no more depth charges. Mean- time, the German is cndeavoring te escape. American and British commanders of destroyers and submarine chasers discovered the scheme of the Germans some time ago and since then have been dropping depth bombs in greater numbers than previously, using the oil as a guide to the general locatjon | of their target. “0il camouflage” the Amerjcan and | British navy call this letest German | sybmarine trick.

Peel promptly and pack into previously boiled quart jas. | Add one teaspoon sugar and half tea- speon salt seasoning and fill the jars with a het thick tomato sauce. (This proeedure is economical, because each quart jar will give whole tomatoes for salads or baking and a temato puree for soups or sauces.) This puree er sayce, whieh is poured over the whele tomatoes, is made by ceoking the small or broken tomatees until tender. The seeds and skins are then removed and the pulp is concentrated by boiling it to about the consistency of ketchup. Place cleansed rubber rings and lids on the jars, but do not seal tightly. Put filled jars on a false bottem ipn a water bath and bdil (process) for 30 minutes, counting from the time the hot water bath begins to boil aroupd the jars again, This one boiling is sufficient.
