CHICAGO, May g. = The sharp
break came early on the belief that
recent bulls were liquidating. The
downturn as a whole was hardly in
line with weather reports which indi-
cate further planting delay. Chicago
corn receipts very small with forty
cars. Cash corn about three cents
higher. Shorts covered on the break
and there was some buying by COM
mission houses. Locals still think
corn has made the seasons high and
food leaders desire a reduced living
cost. The board closed at 1890 to-
day. Central west oats report as a
whole good. There are few complaints
Northwestern oats crop somewhat
small. Further indications of increas-
ed Argentine corn sale to United
States. Forecast mixed More wet
weather is possible over the corn belt.
Iowa reports say successful corn can
be planted June /; May II to 20 is
about the right time.

USE FOR LUMINOUS PAINT
Material Found Almost invaluable in
War Might Also Be Well En-
pIoyed in Peace.

Here is a wartime application of
luminous paint that should be useful
in summer camps, on the hikes of boy
scouts, in peacetime maneuvers of
citizen soldiers, in marking the land
ing places OF aircraft, etc.
The British army had disks or but
tons two or three inches in diameter.
coated with luminous paint and having
a sharp spike on the under side. These
were stuck upon the sides of trenches,
buildings, fences, etc, or were swung
by hand to give signals in the we'll
known code where bright lights were
dangerous or where silence was
golden.
The luminous disks were visible
from 30 to 60 feet, so they formed val
liable landmarks. Luminous ribbon
also was used for marking trails
through the woods, and luminous
patches were attached to the backs of
stretcher bearers to prevent them from
being fired upon by their own troops.
The Scientific American suggests
that the names and numbers of city
streets might we'll be marked with this
luminous paint.

BRICKS AND CEMENT SWELL
Absorb Moisture and "Grow" to a Con-
siderable Extent, According to
English Publication.

How much has your house or the
wall at the bottom of your garden
grown?
Houses and walls, indeed all things
made of bricks, do grow, and this fact
is known to architects, who sometimes
have to allow for it when making
plans for building, says London An
swers.
In the old days, when the clay Of
which bricks were made was mixed
with water before being baked, the
amount of growth was not noticeable !;
now that no water, or very little, is
mixed with the clay, which is there
fore said to be dry baked, the bricks
absorb moisture and swell sometimes
to a considerable extent.
Some years ago in a garden at Ely
a pier was built of dry baked bricks
and the garden hose was turned onto
this pier for a considerable period
every day for some weeks. At the end
of this time the pier was measured,
when it was found to have grown
some inches.
Cement is another substance which
grows. That is why you may often see
on station platforms and on wall cop
ings built of cement one of the joints
missed out here and there.
The greatest growth naturally takes
place where cements and bricks are
used together, as happened in a house
of which the parapet was built of
bricks placed endWays and cement sup
ported on iron. The growth in this
instance was so great that quite large
spaces were visible between the iron
supports and the parapet.
