at the close Of business April 10. The
returns have just been tabulated and
have been made public.
The examiners statement shows that
there were 304 of these banks doing
business on April 10, an increase OF nine
over the number at the time OF the pre-
ceding report, Dec. TO- 1891. All OF
these new institutions are state banks
During this period one of the private
banks changed to state bank, making
the total increase of the latter class ten
These new state banks are located as
follows:
Augusta, Augusta State bank; Ora
tot Gratiot State bank; Hustiford,
Hustiford State bank; Hortonville,
Bank of Hortonville; lola, The Farm
ers' State bank; Menominee Falls,
Citizens State bank; Pardeevilee, Par
deeville State bank Sturgeon Bay,
Bank of Sawyer; Wrightstown, the
Farmers and Traders bank; Plainfield,
Waushara County bank.
The most significant feature OF the
bank examiners statement is that
showing that the net increase i'll the
resources and liabilities of these banks
from December 10, 1901, to April 10,
1902, a period of about four months,
was 81, 47j, s1092. This means that the
people doing business with these banks
were that much better off at the latter
date than at the former; that they had
that much more money in the banks.
Another feature of the statement is the
big increase in loans and deposite,
which shows that business is unusually
active, furnishing a good market for
money. The cash reserve of these
banks on December 10, 1901, was 300
per cent, rs against 2S.Ss per cent on

"FIREPROOF" WOOD THAT BURNS.

These experiments were made with
small bits of wood. To determine the
effect of fire on large pieces Prof.
Norton placed over furnaces, for five
minutes, two boxes without ends-one
28 inches long and three feet square,
and the other a little shorter; one of
wildwood and one of pine, and each
treated with a different fireproofng
process. Although the pine box charred
inside it ceased to burn soon after the
fire was withdrawn from beneath il.
The whitewood, however, continued to
glow, and the effect on a hardwood
box was similar. When dropped on
a plate of red hot iron the fireproof
woods only charred at the point of
contact, while the untreated woods
blazed; but in an electric mufie, where
heat of about 800 degrees Fahrenheit
was supplied on all sides. none of the
fireproohng process gave sufficient pro-
lection to enable the samples to resist
the flames.
For a final experiment two cob
houses were built, each of eight tiers,
one of freproof sticks, and the other
of nonfireproof. In both all kinds of
woods and all the different methods of
treatment were mingled. Fire was APP
piled to each for five minutes. The
house of untreated wood broke into
flame quickly and at the end of five
minutes was wholly ablaze. while the
fireproofed house was untouched above
the fifth tier and even that part which
had caught was not burning readily.
The untreated wood burned considera-
bly, longer than the freproofed, stand
ing less than five minutes after the
fire had been Withdrawn, while the
structure Of prepared blocks remained
upright for ten minutes. After the
houses had fallen the plain wood con
tlnued 10 blaze considerably longer
than the other.
IL was developed that samples
treated with hreproof paint wlthstood
the attacks Of the flames fully as well
as those treated with solutions that
completely soaked the aber.
