On the part of the summer school,
1t Is heartily conceded that the work
done has never been excelled in ser

CONCRETE SILO AND WATER
TANK For LOCAL FAR

A large concrete silo is being erected
on the farm Of Sidney III. Bell, about
two and one-half miles northeast of
Pensacola. The silo is being built by
o. w. Jefferson. A water tank of $500
to 5000 gallons capacity will be con-
structed above the silo. The tank will
supply water for stock as we'll as for
domestic uses.
A number of farms In this section are
installing facilities for water supply
and number OF silos are said to be
contemplated owing to high cost OF
stock feed.

MOTT advisable to avoid heaVy
structures in tn upper parts OF
buildings, such as brick roofs, ana
projecting cornices; gables and
other unsupported walls, such as
those used to carry church bells,

much more liable to injury than
low ones.
The sea wave, which followed
the earthquake Of October llth'
was of course confined to the
coasts. Near Point Borlnquen 1t

damage seems to have been done
by the wave elsewhere.
All strong earthquakes are foil
owed by after shocks, which gra-
dually die out in strength and Ill
number. Sometimes there is but
a single strong shock; sometimes.
als in the recent shocks here, there
are several. But strong shocks
never continue indefinitely; quiet
is always restored after more Or
less short time. The aftershocks
here have grown infrequent and
very light; and, although the gell-
eral knowledge of, earthquakes
does not justify a definite predic-
ton, we think the indications are
chat the present disturbance is
reaching its end. There IS GER
tainly no special reason for ex-
pecting another strong shock in
the near future.

ROME TO

\ Although the idea Of making
tile Italian capital a first-class port
isEby no means new, it is one that
has never yet been realized. The
arrangement which has been con-
clIded between the Italian Gov
ernment and the authorities OF the
city and Province Of Rome for
constructing harbour works at
O.stia Nuova, and connecting them
bv means of canal with docks
to be built at Rome, offers alluring
prospects to the ancient city. The
work is to be financed by the mum

vessels are able to proceed up the
river, and dredging operations
should materially increase the fa-
cilities for craft of larger tonnage,
wniie the canal is reserved for
ocean steamers. 1t is expected
that the proposed works will allow
an annual movement of not less
than a million tons. In the mean
time a modern town is springing
up near Ostia, and is to be connec-
ted with Rome by an electric rail
way, pending the laying of which
a motor-car service has been Or
ganized. AL these are develop
ments which bid fair to change
the whole oltlook Of the new posi-
bilities of trade that are in pros
pect, for while Genoa and Leghorn
will continue to serve the coun-
try behind the northern stretch OF
the eastern coat of ITALY, and
Naples will do the same for the
southern stretch Of the same coast,
Rome as a port would as natur'
ally cater for the important cen
trail provinces.
