and zinc oxide decreased the durability of white-lead paint and failed to
increase that of lead and zinc paint, although it improved the appearance of
both paints. The addition of zinc dust to the standard primer caused effects
similar to those of the zinc dust and zinc oxide primer. The addition of a
small amount of aluminum powder to primers was practically without effect.
Aluminum paint as a primer under top coats of white lead and of lead and zinc
paint increased the durability of the coatings markedly.
Special primers for house paints, F. C. SCHMrTZ, F. C. PALMER, and W. W.
KITTELBERGER (Indus. and Engin. Chem., 22 (1930), No. 8, pp. 855-860, figs. 7).This
paper deals with the problem of bonding of paint and wood from the
viewpoint of the vehicle used, and shows that varnish in the priming coat
affords much better adhesion than vehicles now generally used. This improvement
holds regardless of the type of pigment used in combination with the
vehicle.

[Investigations in agricultural economics at the Ohio Station, 1930-31]
(Ohio Sta. Bul. 497 (1932), pp. 151-155).-Results of investigations not previously

152).-A table is included showing, by months, for 437 carloads of hogs sold
in 1930 the number of carloads, weight per hog, time in transit, time until
slaughtered, carload shrinkage, and percentage of yield.
Marketing cannery tomatoes in Ohio, C. W. Hauck (pp, 152, 153).-A table
is given showing the amounts of pulp stock, waste, and hand-packed and
machine-packed tomatoes obtained from experimental lots of U. S. No. 1 and
U. S. No. 2 tomatoes canned at a commercial cannery in 1931, the gross sales

The farm real estate mortgage situation, V. R. Wertz (pp. 153, 154).-A
table is given showing for new farm mortgages recorded in Union and Greene
Counties in the years 1910, 1920, 1925, and 1930 the number of farms and
acreage mortgaged; value of land and buildings mortgaged; amount of mortgage
indebtedness recorded, total and per acre; and the ratio of recorded
mortgage indebtedness to value of land and buildings.
Costs of local government, H. R. Moore and F. L. Morison (pp. 154, 155).--
A table is given showing for each of seven counties for 1930 the average expenditures
of townships for different purposes and the amounts withheld from
township taxes by counties for township roads, county health districts, and

The farm real estate situation, 1930-31, B. R. STAUBER (U. S. Dept.
Agr. Circ. 209 (1931), pp. 68, figs. 6).-This circular continues the study
previously noted (E. S. R., 65, p. 82) and covers for most of the data the year
ended March 1 or 15, 1931.
The index of estimated value per acre of farm real estate (1912-1914=100)
decreased from 115 in the previous year to 106 in the year studied. The
decreases in the different geographic divisions were for New England 1 per
cent, Middle Atlantic 5, East North Central 9, West North Central and South
Atlantic 12, East South Central 11, West South Central 15, and Pacific and
Mountain sections 2 per cent. The number of farms per 1,000 changing ownership
through voluntary sales and trades decreased from 23.7 in 1930 to 19
in 1931, that through delinquent taxes increased from 5.1 to 7.4, and that
through foreclosures, bankruptcy, etc., increased from 15.7 to 18.7. The number
