Town Has Buckeye Tree
That Foretells Weather

CHARDON. OHIO.-Cal for West
ern Reserve university scientific
professors and the Cleveland wealth
er bureaui
Chardon has a mystery
Al w. Timm doesn't need a
barometer. A 55-year-old buckeye
tree in his front yard foretells ac-
curately within five to six hours
when rain is coming, and has done
so for the last two years.
His neighbors actually depend on
this tree when planning picnics.
When rain is coming. although skies
may be cloudless, wet spots begin
to appear on the bark about two
feet from the ground, and they in
crease until the bark is wet all the
way to earth.
After the storm the tree becomes
dry and remains so until ready for
another forecast.
William Facey, who lives in the
Tinm home. and Timm discovered
the phenomena. Charles Repp, re-
tired farmer and a neighbor of
Tims1, said recently that, in all his
long farm experience, he never had
seen anything like it.
The tree was struck by lightning
several years ago. and the course of
the lightning shows plainly Whether
this has anything to do with the
trees propensities is not known.
Maybe some Of these college and
weather bureau scientists can figure
it out" Timm said. II can't and
they're welcome to the problem"

Study of Malaria Goes
Forward With Canaries

ATLANTA.-Beneath the golden
feathers of the singing canary may
lie the secret of new methods of
treating malaria, according to the
theory of Emory university medical
students.
Officials of Emory have an
nounced a $1,000 grant from the
Abbott Laboratories of North Chica-
go, ILL.,. to continue present research
work on canaries. DR.. Elizabeth
Gambrel, instructor in bacteriolo-
gy. viii direct the research, which
was begun several months ago on a
preliminary 81, coo award from the
research organization
DR.. Gambren said that the re-
search would be conducted on more
than so canaries. The canary is the
only animal known to be affected by
malaria in the same way as human
beings.

Build Fort for
War in 4 Hours
Army Officers See Dem.
onstration of Vacuum
Concrete Process.

WASHINGTON. - Before high
ranking army and navy officials and
foreign military attaches a new and
revolutionary method Of construct
ing concrete fortresses. bOmbprOof
dugouts. and machine gun nests was
demonstrated at the bureau Of
standards.
The audience witnessed the con-
struction of a 50-ton pill box fort
with a so-called vacuum concrete.
The fort was ready for use four
hours after the concrete was poured.
Ordinarily it takes several days for
concrete to harden.
Point to Unusual Speed.
The process was used in the dem
onstration for the first time for mill
tary purposes. Witnesses agreed
that the fortress Of the future, par
ticularly in those nations more in
terested in defensive than in often
sive warfare. viii take advantage Of
the unusual speed and strength pos
sible by means Of this most recent
development.
The process was invented by Karl
P. Billner of New York city. Il
has already been used TO advantage
in the construction Of concrete
houses. in public highways and for
other purposes. but it is expected to
be of special service in time Of war.
By means of vacuum" concrete,
oombproof shelters and fortresses
could be built in one evening and
harden and be ready for warding
off attack at dawn on the following
morning. Billner said. Not only does
this new process save time in con-
struction and otherwise, he added,
but the resulting fortress is much
stronger than those of other types
and the cost of construction is less.
Standard Mix Used.
In the demonstration standard ce-
ment, sand and broker stone, mixed
with water. were poured into forms
or moldS at a. m. These forms
were Of wood, although in standard
lied construction they probably viii
be Of thin steel or aluminium sheets,
with the proper bracing. so as to
be very light and easily transport
able, in sections.
After the concrete mixture was
poured into the molds, the vacuum
process was applied and at p. m.
the forms were removed.
Briefly, the vacuum process is a
method of removing from concrete,
after it has been placed in the
forms, all excess mixing water-the
water which has been added to
make the concrete liquid enough to
flow readily into the forms, Billner
explained.

a household word with thousands of housewives in this city, not to mention the many thousands out side of the city.
 The plant of the Reymond Baking Company is one of the cleaniest, one of the most sanitary in every re- spect that can be found any where in this state. This is perhaps one of the main reasons why Reymond's bread has enjoyed the phenomenal success it has.
 Factory Completed
 The new addition to the factory and in which doughnuts will be pre- pared and cooked has only recently been completed. The doughnut de- partment is a large clean room in which can be found the very latest in machinery. A large doughnut machine is in the center of the room and doughnut cooler is To- cated just to the side of the ma chine. Doughnuts are prepared, fried and sealed without human hand touching them.
 MT. Raymond explained in detail the baking of bread, the various processes of baking bread and the process of frying doughnuts. He expressed the opinion that he ex- pected the new Raymond doughnuts to enjoy the same great success which Reymond's delicious bread has had since it was first introduced.

 Attorney Peterson claimed that the bond was necessary to assure him of recovery for any loss on the stock, which he might suffer dur ing the litigation. Judge Inglis has issued a temporary injunction re- straining transfer of the stock.
 First Intimation

USE OF GAS IN
 STATE GREATER
Sales for Past Year In. creased Az Per Cent
 Over l936

Final compilation of figures on the sales of manufactured gas in Connecticut for the past year re- veals that the people of this state increased their use of gas during the year by AZ per cent over the preceding year, and burned in va rious domestic appliances, industrial processes and for commercial pur- poses a total of approximately ten billion cubic feet of gas.
 r These figures are based upon re- ytports received by the American Gas Association from eleven Connecti- cut public utilities whose sales con- stitute 92 per cent of the total sales of manufactured gas in the state. The total sales for the eleven com- panies were 9,517,227,000 cubic feet.
 At the same time, the number of customers of these companies in- creased by two per cent, bringing their total of customers of all class es to 262,324 in Connecticut at the close of the year.
 The years gain in gas use in this state was made despite the general downward trend of business in the closing months of 1887, which af- fected industrial and commercial sales and in December put those sales for the first time in about three years below the figure for a corresponding month of the preced- ing year.
 Sales of gas for general house heating likewise showed a substan- tial rise in December, soaring more than 5.6 per cent above the figure of December, 1886, and making a net house heating gain for the twelve months of the year of 7.5 par cent. This increase was due to 8 very substantial increase in the number of homes employing gas for general heating during the year.
