Old Mine Enlarged
For Town Reservoir

REPUBLIC, Mich, March 10.

this village as a reservoir, is be-
ing enlarged as one of the most

half q century ago, the mine was
abandoned when the depth
passed the point where mining

gallons has became insufficient
for the 1900 persons it serves,
so it is being enlarged to hold

WOODLAWN, Dec. 20. CUP
Mining of high grade limestone
deposit so extensive that 1t would
last foE. generations" at the pres

dertaken near here by the state.
The limestone has two principal
uses-aS foundation layer for
highways and when powdered, as
a soil alkalizer for farms.
Underlying Il 300-acrc tract
purchased by the State Highway
and Public Works commission, the
limestone deposit was first tapped
exclusively for highway purposes.
Later experiments proved the
powdered stone valuable to "gri-
culture.
The mine, worked b~ prison la
Dor, produces 600 tons daily, APP
proximately 20 per cent of which
is dust" suitable for farming.
Farmers can buy the powder ut
S5 cents per ton. A paved highway
runs nearby, simplifying the prob
lem of transportation.
SO effective has the lime provt
ed in tests in reducing soil acid

agents are urging growers to take

Loss OF Sleep No

Effects of the loss of sleep are de-
seribed in a paper which DR.. A. 5.
Edwards, professor of psychology
at the University of Georgia, will
submit to the American ASsocia-
ton for Advancement of Science
in session here, December 20.
The experiment dealt with tests
given to two men who had been
kept awake for 100 hours. 1t was
performed in the psychology lab
oratOry Of the university.
The results were varied but 1t
was found that in both cases the
ability of the men to make dots
on a target, and their steadiness
was lessened. There was no change
in the color vision or in the size
of the color zone in either case.
Contrary to the usual belief,
loss of sleep was not found to
cause corresponding loss in
weight. One man lost weight
but the other gained.
