LONDON.-It required only six minutes to inform the British Elm pirc that England was at war on the night of August 1, 1914, says Lord Harcourt, who was then col onial secretary.
 "On that unforgettable night" " he said to the Empire Parliamentary Association, "I was in the cabinet room, Downing street, with few colleagues. Our eyes were on the clock, our thoughts on one subject only; but there was feeble effort to direct our conversation to other matters. We were waiting for a re- ply, which we knew full we'll would never come, to our ultimatum to Berlin.
 "When Big Ben struck II 1:3O- midnight in Berlin-we left the room knowing that the British Elm pire was at war
 "I crossed to the Colonial Office to send war telegram to the whole of the British Empire I asked the official in charge of that duty how long it would take. He said about six minutes.
 "I asked him to return to my room when he had done his work. In seven minutes he was back and before morning received an ac- knowledgement of my telegram from every single Colonial Protectorate, and even islet in the Pacific.
 ,'So the grim machinery of war began revolving in perfect order and with perfect preparation be- cause, more than two years pre- viously, an individual war-book had been prepared by the Colonial Com mittee of Defense for every single protectorate and island. It was at that moment locked in the safe of each governor or commissioner and they knew at once what to do."

WATER STORED UP IN PLANTS

tScience)
 A birch tree standing in the open has been found to give off more than 500 pounds of water per day. A man equip ped with two ordinary water pails would have to make g. trips in order to carry this amount of water. If he had steps up to the top of the tree and could make a round trip every 10 min utes he would work more than five hours per day to carry this amount of water.
 This evaporation IS a large factor in raising water to the tops of plants. Re cent investigation indicates that this molecular diffusion, which We call transpiration, eXerts susction through out the whole vascular system of the plant-leaYes. branches, stem and roots. The contained water seems to be under tension even to the tips of the roots.
