RAIN WAS APPRECIATED .2e of An Inch Here-Peach and To- bacco Growers Will Benefit.

The total rainfall in the showers
 of Wednesday amounted to .29 of an
 inch, and meant benefit to the agrf
 culturalists, but hardly amounted to
 anything in the way of gain on the Norwich reservoirs watersheds
 The water situation in Norwich is
 so good anyway, Superintendent J J. Corkery declares, that 1t makes little
 difference about any rainfall now Fairview reservoir is now 55 inches down from full pond and Stony Brook is down an even 8 feet
 Around the state the rain was gen erally welcome for the thirsty fields and orchards of Connecticut have
 been suffering many weeks. It is al- of the rain to Connecticut. J. H. Hale Glastonbury's veteran peach grower said that the rain added 100000 bush els to the states production of peach es by increasing the size of the fruit and adding to the number of mar
 keta'ble peaches. At the same time the quality of the fruit will be ap- parently improved by the rainfall, sc both the orchard man and the con- sumer will be benefited.
 There was considerable hail in some parts of the state.
 "The rain did us oceans of good, said one familiar with the tobacco growing industry. It was explained
 that many of the growers filled thei1 barns some days ago, and have been unable to cut the leaf of outstanding tobacco because of no place to put it The rain moistened the tobacco in the barns so that it can be removed to warehouses, and more leaf can be cut and put in the barns The shower will increase the profits of the grow

Norwich bulletin., 1913-08-29

To comply with the provisions of the new law concerning fire escapes on scnoolhouses, nine of the school build ings of the town of Norwich will have to be equipped with fire escapes be- yond what they have at present and recently the representatives of a num- Der of firms making fire escapes have been here looking over the buildings with the expectation of submitting bids.
 Fire Chief Stanton with Shepard B. Palmer of the town school committee have been over the buildings to see Where changes were to be made to comply with the new law, and it has been decided that nine of the two- story buildings will have to have fire escapes provided, while two-Broad. street and Laurel Hill-do not need them.
 Nine Schools Affected.
 The buildings to be equipped are Mt. Pleasant street, Broadway, Pearl street, High street, Occum. West Thames street, Boswell avenue Hobart avenue and Bridge school.
 The expense of providing the fire escapes will be considerable and is made greater through the provision of the law which is taken to mean that all windows opening on fire escapes must have their SillS cut down so that they will be on a level with the floors of the fire escapes. This will involve in many cases much cutting of the steam heating pipes where they run around the rooms under the windows and will also mean other interior changes in some cases.
 As Broad street schoolhouse has freproof staircases and railways it is exempt from the provisions of the act and the Laurel Hill building also es- capes because it has the necessary number of ground floor exits
 One for Every 250 Pupils.
 The new law reads as follows:
 Every building used as a schoolhouse which is two or more stories in height and in which the greatest elevation of the floor of any story actually used and occupied by pupils is ten feet or more above the adjoining ground at any ac- cessible door, window or other suita- ble of exit shall be provided with at least one adequate fire escape, of iron or other uncomfortable material, se- curely erected on the outside of said building for each 250 pupils or frac- tional part thereof; and such fire es- capes shall at all times be kept free from Instructions, shall be SC, designed as to prevent persons from being pushed off or falling from same, shall be conveniently accessible to and from each floor of ten or more feet above the adjoining ground of said building, shall be of sufficient width and strength at all parts so that the same may be crowded from top to bottom with adult persons descending two abreast. and the exits of each floor to same shall consist of doorways whose base shall be level both with the floor
