to his friends house, and there met
Joseph Pulitano, Natalie Purone and

him and see that he was not harmed.
He got q gun and the four started

They were broken under the super
vision of the department of applied
mechanics Every effort was made to
secure very accurate test. The points
of contact in the machine were made
exactly the same for all bones of the
same class, though for short bones
like the humerus the bearings were
necessarily closer than in the temurs
and the radiuses and ulnas. In two
instances bones which were found to
have been previously cracked were re-
jected. The results are shown in ia
BILE l..
Although this machine did not break
the bones with blow. such as light
be expected when broken in the ami
NAL, they were all broken under exact
ly the same conditions and hence their
relative strength could be carefully de-
dermined
1t will be seen from this table that
there is a gradual increase in the
strength of these bones per hundred
weight of hog and that the greater
strength is not matter simply OF the
more rapid growth and heavier wS.ght
of the pig resulting from these SUI pie
mentary feeds.
The laboratory examination of these
bones also reveals marked difference
in the thickness of the walls as shown
by the X-ray photographs.
The laboratory tests have also
shown that there is no apparent in
crease In the external measurements

$4,000 is contemplated by the asso-

A little more than a year ago
Charles w. See, the owner of the
house. announced his determination of
disposing of the property. His parents,
Mr.. and Mrs. Wesley See. who had
lived in the house for 40 years, died
last year. When the Wesley Sees
took possession of the house the only
relics of Paine they found were some
andirons and a Franklin stove, both
of which had been used in Paines bed
room. Mr.. See gave them to Walter
T. Bell of New Rochelle, who has
since had them on exhibition in the
window of his shop on Main street. 1t
is understood that both relics will be
restored, now that the house is to be
converted into a museum.
The house at New Rochelle, as well
as farm of 227 acres upon which it
stands, was presented to Thomas
Paine in 1884 by the state of New
York in recognition of his services in
the country during the period of its
struggle for liberty. Both the house
and the farm had been confiscated by
congress from Frederick de Veaugh, a
Tory. The house was built about 1920

difference in the breaking strength of

which we have not been able to over

eight leg bones broken in each hog. or
