Lumber From Sugar MIN Waste.

For 20 years many scientists have
been working on the problem of find
Ing some practical usage for baga sse,
the cane fibre as It comes from the
sugar mills after the juice has been
extracted. 1t is produced in enorm-
Gus quantities in the sugar-making
sections. Professor c. e. Monroe, In
yentor. OF Washington. d. c., has
hnally discovered a practical use for
this material in the manufacture of
building board. 1t Is estimated that
there is enough sugar cane fibre
available within a radius OF so or 60
miles OF the plant at New Orleans to
make 200,o00.O00 square feet OF new
product annually.
The product weighs but six-tenths
OF pound per square foot in one
hah Inch thickness. which makes II
much lighter than any wood lumber.
1t can be handled and sawed lust Ike
ordinary lumber. Its color is a
pleasing shade of tan.

In tho opinion Of John J. Raskob,
who has just returned from trip
abroad, partly in the interest OF the
General Motors Cooperation, OF which
he is an officer. business conditions
in Europe are improving.
'As most OF my trip was devoted 70
pleasure" Mr.. Raslaob said today,
when asked about his observations
while abroad, "I cannot say very much
about business conditions in>Europe.
However. from my observations, while
there, business conditions seem to be
improving and 1 believe they will
right themselves as soon as the mat
ter OF reparatons has been adjusted .

Yarns at Lowest Prices.

Possibilities that there might be any
further reductions OF any consequence
in cotton yarn prices are secuted by
traders. says the New York Journal of
Commerce. IL is contended that the
present prices at which sales are be-
Ing made In that market are about
two cents per pound below cotton at
zoe and that not until the raw ma
terial falls to 1Sc or lower may any
permanent reductions In yarn prices
be made.

For nearly twenty years following
the American occupation Of Detroit
IN 1896 ;ne Indians of the Saginaw
valley harassed the citizens by threat
ening attacks upon the town. and by
stealing their cattle from the public
common through which Washington
boulevard was afterward surveyed.
Fort Shelby. which then conferred
about the present site of the post
Office. did not lntimidate the Indians
from lnyasions Of the common, So
circular earthwork fort was construct.
ed just east Of where High and Park
boulevard now converge for add
tIonal protection. The work was per.
formed by soldiers from the fort dur.
ing the year 1867.
When finished this fort inclosed
circular space Of half an acre. The
walls were ten feet high. with an In.
side parapef half way up. 1t was sur.
rounded by broad ditch about six
feet deep. which the swampy ground
tept filed with wafer For several
years small detail OF soldiers went
