Shaking Of the Earth Causes Ex-
citement Just After 8 O'clock
Wednesday Morning
NO DAMAGE DONE BY SHOCK
Hebron, Ill, Seems to Have Been the
Center of the Disturbance but
Quake is Felt in Many Cities
Along the Lake Shore

Kenosha felt an earthquake shock
Wednesday as just after half past
eight clock the earth rocked in Ke-
nosha county to such an extent that 1t
.iostled the windows and caused peo-
pie to rush out into the streets to see
what was going on. 1t was not real
gingerly earthquake in Kenosha, but
reports from other places in this sec
lion of the country seem to indicate
that it was more severe to the south
Of Kenosha. In Kenosha the shock
was mementary one, but it was here
nevertheless. It was especially strong
at the county building where some
thing has been needed for a long time
to stir up the officials and the old
building rocked to such an extent that
the officials hurried to the sidewalk
to get away from probable danger.
All along Main street the business
men felt the shock of the earthquake,
while out in the residence districts of
the city windows ratified as if swayed
by the wind.
Pleasant Prairie had real laugh on
Kenosha this time for with the rock
ing Of the earth the people of the city
at once decided that the powder mills
had let down again and H. A. King,
who is the patron Saint Of the Prairie
and the possessor of the one public
telephone in the village, was kept busy
for half an hour assuring the anxious
people Of Kenosha that the powder
mills were still standing and thai there
had been no explosion there Pleasant
Prairie people felt the shock of the
earthquake and the people who had
had experiences with explosions in the
past rushed out into their yards ex-
pecting to see the flash of other ex-
plosions, but there was nothing doing
and they returned to their homes with
out finding any excitement at ALL
The first news Of the earthquake
came to Kenosha from Hebron, Ill.,,
where it is claimed that the shock of
the earthquake was strong enough to
break glass from windows and the PEG
pie were thoroughly frightened there
The news of the Hebron quake came to
Kenosha through the medium of the
Northwestern railway Offices as the
operator there telegraphed to Keno
sha that his Office had been in the
very center of the quake and that con.
siderable damage had been done.
No general statement has been sent out
in regard to an earthquake shock pass
ing over this section of the country
more than the scattered kilograms.
The same sort Of shock was felt at
Waukegan and Racine, but no damage
was done at either of these cities.

wOOD PRESERVATION
A GREAT SAVING.

Government Is Engaged in Extensive
Experiments.
OGDEN, Utah, June sO.-The i'm.
pregnatlon of wood with chemical
substance for the purpose Of prevent
ing decay is not only successful theor.
etically, but It has also been proven
by practice that such treatment more
than doubles the life Of timber and
hereby renders the proposition most
practically profitable.
Although the advent Of wood pres
eryation into commercial practice is
Of recent date in the United States.
in European countries the chemical
treatment of wood has been In gen
eraI practice for over a quarter of a
century, and with most satisfactory
results So successful has it proven
that the installation OF untreated
wood in any construction which will
bring it into contact with the soil is
the exception rather than the rule.
The use of preservatiVe processes
in the United States has been con-
fined largely to the southern and
eastern portion, partly due to a more
rapid decay of timber on account of
climatic conditions, partly to the fact
that in the older settled portions OF
the United States the diminution of
the timber supply is more keenly felt.
making urgent the adoption of some
means to lessen the demand.
With the exception OF the transcon-
tnental railway systems the preserv-
alive treatment of wood is seldom
made use of in the inter-mountain
REGION. However, as the country be-
comes older and more settled indus
trially the users of timber will feel
more free to make the additional in
Yestment necessary.
The preservation of timber in use
in contact with the soil is a ques-
ton of intense interest to the man
who looks at the economical side. The
fact that railroad tie that costs so
cents untreated and has a life of from
i five to seven years can, by treating,
Be made to last from fifteen to twenty
years at an additional cost of from
40 to so cents, with the added saving
pf the cost of replacing the decayed
lie, raises the proposition from one
pf theory to one where dollars and
cents count. This saving is as ap-
plieable to posts, poles and mine
timbers as to ties. If the amount of
timber now used for these purposes
bach year in the inter-mountain re-
gOn could be diminished by one-half
by doubling its life by the use of pre-
Bervatives the total saving in money
outlay alone would be enormous.
1t is for the purpose of bringing
the possibilities of timber treatment
TO the attention of those using tim
per that the Office of products in the
local district Office of the forest serv-
ice at Ogden is maintained. If by
demonstration the amount of timber
nsed can be decreased by increasing
its life it is felt that as much service
has been rendered as to grow new
Orests.
