I ' * * * It is reported that the legislative committee named to look into the ' - finances of the State has discovered more that the suspicion* of Senator j Reed predicted, . its investigations showing that a real deficit of something like $3,(HXMlou. and ttn.n in..- , i% reported the committee will make ' ( some recommendation* for raising; revenue to mi-et this without- B Stats- ; | tax. if possible. Th<-se revelations are staggering to say the least. "Preo-iling the coming in of the Is-gi*-lature. Senator Reed pnve out an inter- | view in which he said that from what he ; • ■ knew of figures there was a shortage . of moneys and not a surplus, as the Comptroller stated when the book* of the State wen- closed Dctober 31 last, the last day.of^he 1914 fiscal year. I-at-T. Comptroller Kdwardsrin mak- ' icg his re|>ort to the legislature, ad- i mitted that there was really a deficit of $150,432 on Oejob r 31 last, and that the Ftate would he in haril lines for money , until the railroad taxes and other revenue b-geu to roll in after Feb- i ntsry 1. this year, lie defended this, i saying that his new system of requisi- i tioroi and compelling perfect accounting had resulted for the first time in the State having an honest statement at the end of the year. But the committee, -so it is said in dose Republican quarters, savs that the •out of government for thp three months which are about pajt has rendered the deficit around the $3,000,000 mark, and j." something most be done to remedy this 1 ar a State tax must he passed at once. j

It is likely that the committee will say in their, report that this is the rc*ult of five "years of Democratic rule. It is known that when the Republicans turned the State over to Governor Wil- | son there was p surplus in the treasury, ami tlM-r<% was never before that time , any Shortage of moneys, though in the administration of Governor Fort he called attention to the lowering of the . surplus at'tl ml of ■•ach fiscal year, , "named, which pruned expenses and I, rloscd the year with a surplus in the Tin- -government has n-oeiv.-d $99.40 in settlement for -a single sugar pine , which was cut in trospnss in tin- Stan- • islans Kational Forest, in California j , and which yielded more than enough j actual lumber to build a good-sized j -rtiburbau frame house.

, RUBBER AS A SOURCE OF DANGER Everyone is interested in the chemis- ; I try of rubber because this material enters into numerous articles and devices of daily use. Experience teaches the unlike qualiUes of different types or brands of rubthT. Some of them retain tlieir original elasticity, for a long time under the imposed conditions of usage, while others speedily deteriorate into brittle and useless scrap despite the various precautions of preservation that are embodied in familiar direction*-. The economic aspect of the quality of Rubgoods offered for sale is *an imThe time is arriving. «ayg The Journal of the Ameriran Medical Association. : when the purchaser of rubber -will demand some reliable information as to Ithe quality of the product whieh he is ] pa/fng for. Rare, indeed, is the person j affile present time who has any Idea ! whatever of the raake-up of rubber. Pure r india-rubber, or eaoiitelione. in its natural state is entirely nnsuited for com•uerrial use. It is pnft and sticky, and n-adily undergoes spontaneous oxidation ^ to a hard, brittle resinous substance. By vuh-aniration, a proeessi in which ' mixtures of the crude gum with" sulphur. ' or metallic sulphids or oxide are heat.*l- ' a rubber is formed which is more per- » nianentlv elastic and less subject to ' spontam-tbi* change. .The simplest, type ' of vnleaniw-d riihb.-r. sneh as would be ' ohtain'sl from a properly heated mix- ' tun- of sulphur and pure gum. 'is quite - soft -and off.rs little resistance to orili 1 r.Brv rough usage. Rubh-)- of toiigher ' qualities, hut with lower elastic limits. ' is produced hv the addition or metallic oxide, such as those of lead and of zinc, to tlie other ingrediint* before vulean ' ization: Among other constituents add ' •-•! to give required characteristics are ■ the various pigment* which, furnish .the | • j color," Venetian red (iron oxid), ultra ■ J marine, lajnphlaek ami various organic I Ives being among the ingredient* wliieli I j are employed. i ] A government report shows tliat n large number of material* are used in • I rubber com|>ounding to reduce tlie cost. > | Among these are whiting, barytcs, rlnv ■ and Various ruldier substitutes, sueli a* ■•artificial rubber, oils and tar products. • Finally, so-called rocoveml rubber, or • shoddy, is used to a large extent in rub- t - her compounds. In tlie case of most , r articles of rubber tlie existence of fill- ( ing materials, pigments, .etc.. has no hygienic import. Cost and durability ■ are the chief concern of the purchaser. I The u*e of various heavy metals in the 1 - manufacture of nursing-nipples and 1 1 j small rubber toys is a danger to the 1 1 health of infants, who extract soluble products from sueli articles in the mouth or when small pieces of the rublM-r are : accidentally swallowed. < The Public Health Service has lately ] . ! investigated flic rubber usi-d in nipples j • ,J«nil toys. All specimens examined con-j. j tninrd iron and aluminum. In the red ■ ' , rubbers either zinc oxid or magnesia j ! !,]««* used, in the black rubbers zinc oxidj, f ; and hnrvtes. Antimony was found in I ( . j four eases out-of seven among the black , e among the red niMiers. The three re- ' , maining specimens of red rubber were . rolnred wjtfc, Venetian red. The white | t rubber tovs eoirfained clay, zinc oxid . I end bnrvtes. Tlie use of lead compounds ,, in rubber preparations iA common, and tent. Either of these nH-tals would be]: f higlilv objectionable in nipples or chil-ji dren's toys. The government report j ; concludes: The articles should be made I r of a good grade of bUck rubber, free from shoddy and from antimony, load. , J arsenic and mercury. -Of the fillers eom-|' ' raonlv Vmployed. mdpi-sia. zinc oxid i and elev are less undesirable, and , liarvte* is nrobalilv without harmful in-j, j flu.-nee. There .-an lx- no obiection to a red rubber .-olori-il with iron oxid. , | altjiough the advantages of sneh a com- : ' 1 pound will probably not compensate fo- j ~ | the dis-d'-iitae— »f it* being ennfuaed j with ant iniony rubber. , EVE N " , '-gy.' -l.
