1904 F discussed the question of HONGKONG, 7th NOVEMBER, 1919. ASIA BANKING CORPORATION BANKING CORPORATION.
sinking a shaft to a depth of 12 miles, which is about ten times the
depth of any shaft in existence. The estimated cost was 5,000,000% and the time required about 85 years.
The method of cooling the air locks to limit the barometric pres- sure on the miners and other precau- tions were described, and the project appeared feasible. One essential factor has, however, been queried by some persons: Would the rock at the great depth crush in and destroy the shaft? Subsequent to my address I wrote a letter to Nature, suggesting that the question might be tested experimentally. Pro- fessor Frank D Adams, of McGill University, Montreal, acting on the suggestion, has since carried out; exhaustive experiments, published' in the Journal of Geologyfor February, 1912, showing that in limestone a depth of 15 miles is probably prac ticable and that in granite a depth | of 30 miles might be reached.
Little is at present known of the earth's interior, except by interence: from a study of its surface, upturned strata, shallow shafts, the velocity of transmission of seismic disturbances,. its rigidity and specific gravity, and it seems reasonable to saggest that some attempt should be made to sink a shaft as deep as may be found practicable and at some locality selected by geologists as the most likely to afford useful information.
When we consider that the esti rated cost of sinking a shaft to a depth of 12 miles at present-day prices is not much more than the cost of one day of the war to Great Britain alone, the expense seems trivial as compared with the possible knowledge that might be gained by an investigation into this unexplored region of the earth. It might, indeed.. prove of inestimable value to science, and also throw additional light on the internal constitution of the earth in relation to minerals of high specific gravity.
In Italy, at Lardarello, bore holes have been sunk which discharge large volumes of high-pressure steam, which is being utilised to generate about 10.000 h.. by turbines. At Solfatara, near Naples, a similar pro- ject is on foot to supply power to the great works in the district. It seems. indeed, probable that in volcanic regions a very large amount of power may be in the future obrained directly or indirectly by boring into the earth. and that the whole subject merits the most careful consideration.-The Hon. Sir C. A. Parsons, K.C.B., in Enginering.

CORD TIRES
UALITY, in a tire is not appreciated until it asserts itself through long
continued trouble-free performance.
The gauge to this service is the mileage total recorded when the casing finally
is discarded.
The otable achievement of nine stock tire which, put to official finish test by the Automobile Club of America, averaged 6,7 miles, definitely established the un- usta quility of Vacuum Cup Tires
3
The rainy day certified test of the Pitts- burgh Tuocab Company-in which heavy car equipped with Vacuum Cup Tires was driver around a wet corner at 25 miles an hour without skidding-
conclusively proved the guaranteed ability of the Vacuum Cup tread to resist akid- ding on wet, slippery pavements,
In addition to this proved driving safety and the mileage guarantee per warranty tag-of 6,000 miles, Vacuum Cup Tires are reasonably priced. They cost approxi- mately the same as ordinary 3,500 mito tires and much less than other makes carrying equal mileage surety.
