construction of the works and now in
use is the "zinc-tannin" or Well
house" process. modified in one re-
spect; that of separate application
of the glue solution which, in the
Wellhouse process, is applied in the
same solution with the zinc chloride.
This is done in consequence Of the
greater density of the timber.
The modus operandi of the process
consists of first steaming the charge
in the sealed retort. The air is eX-
PEELED from the middle while the
steam is entering at both ends.
When the air has been mainly eX-
PEELED. it's vent is closed and the
steam is brought to 20 pounds press
ure and held there until the timber
is thoroughly cooked through. The
purpose of this is to start the juices
of the timber and dissolve all solua-
BILE matter and enable it to be ex-
PEELED by the heat and by the aid of
a vacuum drawn after the steam is
discharged. thus leaving the timber
measurabhy dry and in favorable con-
dition to absorb the solution when
let in
Thus far, no more effective means
have been found for this, and that II
does so is easily confirmed by OBJ
servation. An examination of the
timber after the vacuum has been
drawn, before the solution is intro
duced. and by the character of the
condensations drawn from the retort
during the process Of steaming. and
from the rapid rate that the solution
is absorbed on first being applied
demonstrates the effectiveness of this
part of the process. Drawing the
vacuum is the second move in the
process, and this is done as soon as
the steam is discharged from the re
tort. and requires about an hour. The
third movement is the introduction
of the chloride solution. which Is
done while the vacuum is still on

Of certainty, thus AS soon as the
steam has begun to affect the timber
materially-which is generally within
the first hour-the condensation of
the first steam, which absorbs the
cold from the charge. falling to the
bottom of the retort is drawn off
frequently as it accumulates in con-
siderable quantities throughout the
steaming. An examination of this
shows that at first no considerable
amount of the juices of the timber
appear. Continuing the observation
from time to time, the amount of tim
Der juices and resins are plainly indi-
Gated. This continues tor some time,
until the off flow begins to lose this
character and becomes less heavy,
and, finally. almost clear condensed
steam will appear. clearly indicating
that the timber has been cooked
through large globules of the dis
lodged resins will be found in the
bottom of the retort. still further at
testing the power of the steam to
open up the pores of the wood. In
any case, the steaming is the most
important part of the whole process
Not only is it important that a suffi-
Gent portion of the anti-septic be
put in, but still more important
matter is that it shall permeate the
piece, and this permeation cannot be
secured unless the steam has worked
the necessary change in advance of
it. OF course. larger share of the
antiseptic will lodge in the outer por-
ton of the timber than reaches the
center, but it is believed that, owing
to the fact that the chloride remains
in solution as long as it remains
moist that it will equalize somewhat
subsequently.
That the steaming does loosen and
dislodge the saps and such constitu-
ents of the wood as may be dissolved
by its heat, is further demonstrated
by the considerable reduction in
weight, Notwithstanding a considera.

In addition to the heightened life,
the value of the treatment is still
further exemplified by Its effect in

TO MOVE A TOWN.
Benton Will Be Floated Three Miles
 Down River.

The village of Benton Neb., has decided to move. This does not the inhabitants alone. The buildings, houses and stores, be- sides all the personal effects will float down the Platte River for three miles to a location which the village prefers to it's present one Nothing will be left behind except the natural scenery which there when the village was built.
 If the railroad will not come to me, then l will go to the railroad" Such Is the para mountain as given by the village of Benton. Benton has waited long for the mountain to come to it, and it is forced to go to the mountain. The decision to move came with the announcement of the Union Pacific Rail- road that new town, Darr. would be eStab- lshed at the point where the line crossed the Platte River. This is three miles down stream from the present group of houses called Ben ton. The railroad added to it's announcement that the construction of a large elevator and mill would be immediately started at Darr. When agent of the Union Pacific presented the matter in the right light the citizens of Benton saw that they were In the wrong place. and they decided to move and be in on the ground floor of the town.
 According to the residents of the place it will be cheaper to move the town than to buy lumber and build houses The houses which are all frame and well-bunt. will be raised from their foundations and wheeled down to the river, where they will be placed on large fatboat, which has served for years as a ferry. This undertaking will be postponed until a Spring freshet makes the stream as deep possible
 Benton was built on its present site many years ago, with the expectation that when the railroad came that way 1t would pass through the town. Finally, when the railroad did come 1t ws found impracticable to go neare- than three miles of Benton As compensatlon the officials of the Union Pacific Road of fered Inducements to the people of Benton to move to the town. This proposition was ac- cepted. The new town is in the center of a rich agricultural country which will draw on territory for miles arounl. The Platte Val ley al that point is nine miles wide to the north and seven miles wide to the south.
 The citizens of Benton are expressing a de- sire that compromise be made on the name If the new town, and suggest that it be called Darhen. About a dozen houses will be moved down the rive- by means of the raft

 The Past Lear.
 The meeting of the Board of Trustees was well attended this year, there being only one or two absentees After look ing over the work and hearing the re- ports of the officers, all were delighted with the progress of the past year and pleased with the outlook for the future, which is full of hope and promise. The President, pr. Lyman Ward, submitted his annual report from which full com prehension of the scope and extent of the work is gathered.
 The past year has been fruitful one and substantial progress has been made in all departments. The first and main building has been completed and named Ross Hall in honor of a long time patron and friend of the school, Hon. D. A. G. Ross. There have been eighteen students for the year in the industrial department all told and the work has been most im- portant. Refusals of applications ars

constantly made for lack of room, There are forty acres in corn, wheat and oats besides half, an acre of sugar cane, two and half acres of sweet potatoes and a large field of peas, and large garden for fall and winter use.
 Thirty-five acres of land have been fenced in for cow pasture and a pas ture for hogs. Peanuts. millet. corn and watermeIons have also been planted. There are ten hogs and five pigs. and about f00 pounds of pork was made last year. A dairy was begun in 1902 with one COW and now has three miich cows two yeariings and four calves, producing an abundance of milk and butter. Two mules and one@horse also belong to the school. .%+. .'' .f~ ''
 About 4o,0Oo feet ofIumber has been saw ed and work on the dormftory has be- gun Seven girls have received instruc- The total for the years enrolment is sixty pupils. and the first graduate was given a diploma this year.
 During the year about $13, 900 has been raised, two gifts of 5000 each and one of a thousand dollars, the other gifts rang ing in sums from 25 cents up The last $5.000 gift Is for, a trades school for boys The plans are maturing for this depart ment, and it is hoped to give instruction in cabinet-makins. painting. wheelwright- ing. blacksmithing. brickmaking and timing and canning. These are all pro- ductive industries and will be self-sup- porting very soon; each department will furnish work enough for two or three boys. =.t
 Poultry raising and butter making Is being planned for the girls; separator has been loaned and there is a room to be preserved in the dormitory for the creamery.
 The spirit of success and earnest con- secration pervades the entire report and fills all interested with renewed hope and assurance of the future work and possi- bilities of the school.

Such earnings are to be used for the benefit of the school, at the, dis erection of the faculty.

 All the industries thus far are produc- tive industries.
 We are cultivating about 100 acres of land. Corn, oats. cassava. COW peas, wheat, sweet and Irish potatoes, sugar cane, upland rice and cotton are the crops to be cultivated in 1893. The work is done entirely by student labor. Care Is taken in the use of fertilizers and in preparation of soil. Drainage and wash- ing of lands is made a study. Forestry Is taught in an elementary way, the land best adapted for tillage and the land hest for woodland being constantly studied by the class. The school tries to pre- serve it's forest of nearly POO acres for building purposes, and except in rare in- stances. when trees are a hindrance to the farm, no standing timber is cut on the plantation.
 We study pasturage by selecting good land for our pastures. Our stock consists
The Montgomery advertiser., 1903-05-24

of mules, cattle and hogs. The care of the stock is entirely by students, and the young men do the milking.
 We have young peach and plum orchard. Pruning and the removal of in sects and cultivation of the soil is regu- lar and constant work for students.
 Our sawmill and carpenter work is only run when the school is in reed of lumber or has building or repair work to do As building and repairing are going on pretty constantly, good training is given in these industries. trades build ing with equipment is now in process of erection.
 Applications are constantly made in the sciences and mathematics to the practical work in farming and mechan- ics.
