The business of breeding pearly mussels artificially has been carrfed 80 far by the United States fisheries bureau that a money profit. is confldently promised. : To produce in this way 1,000 baby mussels costs about 20 cents. When they are full grown 18,000 of them will welgh a ton. Thus the cest of producing a ton of pearly mussels of market size (If all survived) would be, as exactly reckoned, §2.68. Assuming a loss of 00 per cent, the cost would be 5.88. , Pearly mussels occasionally yleld valuable pearls, but commercially it is the shells, utilizable for mother-of-pearl, that are importantly to be considered. S The fisheries bureau has devoted its attention wholly to the propagation of superior varieties of muasels, the shells of which have at present time a market value of §B5 a ton. - '

FURTHER USES FOR RADIUM

its Employment In Pottery ls Said to Be Productive of Results of . Great Benefit , Water containing radioactive compounds is used as a curative agent for certain illnesses. Mere contact with such compounds for a sufficlent length of time will make water slightly radioactive. : Pottery is now manufactured which has in it a small percentage of radioactive material. This is mixed with the clay and baked in the kiln. Water left in pottery of this nature for a short time will become radioactive by “induction,” and a health-giving drink is made. Such water may also be employed in the watering of plants with good results, since the presence of a radioactive compound near the roots of a lant is very helpful to its growth.— ;opnhr Sclience Monthly.,
