After the meeting Of directors Of the
International Harvester Company in New

pass the dividend on the common stock.
due at this time, the following announce
ment was made by Cyrus II. Mccormick,
president.
AS result of the European war, the
business OF this corporation In the com
oating countries is almost at a stand
sun. Thus far no report of any damage
TO the plant or properties has been re-
ceiVed From recent advices we believe
the corporations losses in the countries
at war will be less than we at first
reared, but the situation in Europe makes
II practically impossible TO collect, at the
present time. large portion of the
moneys due us there.
THE volume Of business secured to
date would, under normal conditions. pro-
vide profits in excess of all the usual
dividend requirements for the year but
In view Of the existing European cond-
tions, the directors feel II would be un-
wise now to declare n dividend on the

FUNGUS LIFTS 200 POUNDS
With Quiet Persistency Hercu!ean
ToadstooI Raises Stone Pave
ment in London.

LOndOn.-SOme years ago a portion
of the pavement in Goswell road, Lon
don, was lifted out of its place in a
mysterious manner. Before 1t could
be repaired numerous tOadStOOlS made
their appearance in the gaping spaces
between the stones. When the stones
were removed it was found that they
rested on an immense spongy mass or
toadstool growth, which had gone on
increasing until it made way through
which it could push its head into the
air. One of the stones moved by 1t
measured four feet by two feet and
weighed 200 pounds.
The more extensive injury was done
in the same way some years ago at
the town Of BasingstOke. Not many
months after the town had been paved
the pavement was noticed to exhibit
signs of unevenness, which could not
be accounted for AS soon as the un-
evenness was sufficient to make open
ings between the stones, the hidden
enemy made his appearance in the
shape Of innumerable toadstoOls. SO
completely had the spores or spawn
got possession of the material on
which the pavement was laid that it
had to be completely taken up and the
whole town repaved.
The toadstoOl and its kind seem to
flourish in places where the light is ex-
cluded as in dark cellars, under flag
stones and in hollow trees. They re-
quire the air. however, and a certain,
though it may be small, amount OF
light, that they may reach their per
feet condition. Unless they are able
to produce seed they go on develop
ing this amorphous, spongy mass until
it attains sometimes a fabulous di-
mensiOn. Every one has heard of the
enormous growths Of fungi in some
wine cellars. A case is on record in
which a caSk of wine, having been left
without attention in a dark cellar for
three years, was al the termination or
the surface of a mushroom growth un.
til it was forced against the roof The
fungus, moreover, had got access to
the wine and had drunk it all, living
upon its sugar. and so the more easily
raising and gradually emptying cask
from the ground. Fungi have some
times taken possession Of worked out
mines and occupied enormous spaces.
