Gnawing Rats May Cause
Short.Circuit Fires

STOCKHOLM = Rats gnaWing
off electric cables may account
for number of conflagrations
where the cause is unknown, be-
ing often referred to as damage
to electric system, writes the
Swedish insurance magazine For
salSrings-Tidningen in a report on
a series of interesting experiments
with rats carried out in Sweden.
The Investigations started a
couple of years ago at the Veteri-
nary College in Stockholm, since
it had been proved that a. short
circuit in the experimental stable
had been occasioned by rats gnaw-
ing off the lead and textile coating
of an electric cable. In order to
find out the behaviour pattern"
of the rats in this special respect
cables of different makes were
placed overnight among grown-up
Scandinavian American. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1945-1958, 1954-09-01

rats housed in cages. Conventional
lead-coated cables proved to be
much enjoyed by the voracious
rodents, who completely disre-
garded the wooded blocks which
had been placed together with the
cables in the cages. However, the
animals showed some hesitation
before attacking cables with an
insulation of asphalt-impregnated
paper, although other kinds of
chemically treated insulating ma
terial did not stop the rats. Fur
thermore, the lead did not seem
to do them any harm AS a curious
fact it may be mentioned that fe.
male rats showed a brisker appe.
tite than the male specimens.
Tests We're also made with plas.
tic cables in white, blue and red
colours. | n several cases it was
found that the rats preferred the
white and red ones, which may be
attributable to certain chemicals
in the dye-stuff.
The experiments have so far
shown that neither lead nor rubber
prevent the rats from attacking,
and that teXtile-coated cables
seem to be especially tempting.
Further tests are now proceeding
in order to find the best possible
means of protection, and the Swed.
ish scientists believe that the so.
luton may be sought along the
lines by the experiments with diff
ferent-coloured cables.

Swedish Textile
Retailers Simplify
Purchases

STOCKHOLM-Over 200 Swed-
ish textile manufacturers an d
wholesalers will show their latest
designs to some 1000 retailers at
special textile fair to be held
on the premises of the Swedish
Industries Fair in Gothenburg on
September 1922. The fair, which
is a non-public trade event, will
be arranged by the Federation of
Swedish Clothing and Textile
Dealers in an effort to simplify
and reduce costs for purchases and
distribution in their branch. The
exhibits will include mems, wom-
ems and children's ready-made
clothes, textiles for furniture and
interior decoration, yard goods,
etc.

News In Brief
The Swedish State Power Board

The Swedish State Power Board
has placed an order with the
ASEA Company, of Vasteras, for
three generators for the Stornorr-
forsen power station, which is
being built on the Ume River
a b out 200 miles south of the
Arctic Circle. The generators will
have an officially rated capacity
of 100000 kilowatts, being, so far
as is known, the worlds most
powerful. Stornorrforsen will be
SWeden's largest water-power sta
ton.
The Twelfth st. Erik Industrial
Fair was held in Stockholm on
August % for a Today run.
About 1900 firms from twenty
five countries are taking part.
Twelve countries, including East
ern Germany, France, Great Brit
ain, Italy and Western Germany,
have arranged national pavilions.
Among those represented by in
dividual exhibitors are Denmark,
Finland, Norway and the United
States. The St. Erik Fair is the
largest annual event of it's kind
in Scandinavia.
A SO-secOnd news roundup and
the days soccer-football results
may now be obtained automati-
cally from several Swedish news
papers, which use telephone
answering machine developed by
the Swedish L. M. Ericsson Com
pany. The first paper to offer this
service to the public was the Goth
enburg AftOnpOsten, and the lead
ing Stockholm dailies soon fol-
lowed suit. Swedens largest de-
partment store, N. K. in Stock
holm, has also found use for the
L. M. Ericsson machine, supply
ling special shopping service to
customers by means of such a de-
vice installed in the main en-
trance hall.
Stockholm telephone subscribers
will be able to dial Gothenburg
direct as of october, and some
what later Gonthenburgers will
be able to call the capital in the
same way. Every minute will cost
SO ore (about 7 cents), a reduc-
ton of the present rate by about
rs per cent. The distance between
Stockholm and Gothenburg is
about 200 miles. The automatiza-
ton of Swedens telephone net
work is proceeding rapidly. The
Stockholm Malmo link, a distance
of about $50 miles, will be COM
pleted early in 1856.
Sweden's fruit imports have
increased enormously during the
past three decades, according to
report just published. Imports
of oranges, which in 1925 totaled
1923 tons, had risen to 91,01S
tons in 1858. The corresponding
figures for apples were 1928
and 1855 tons; for pears, 1891
and 81, 5S1 tons; for grapes, 1,136
and 1O,468 tons; and for lemons,
1916 and 1883 tons. Banana i'm
ports last year totaled 1926
tons, compared with 1880 tons in
1888, the last pre-war year. Dur
ing the last three decades, it may
be added, Sweden's own fruit crop,
consisting of apples, pears, plums,
cherries, currants, ETC., has been
more than doubled. In some dis
tricts, especially in Skane, tn
southernmost province, there is
now large number of farms de-
voted exclusively to fruit grow

As Kiko and Dan tell it, they had

One bull turned around and
pounded toward them, head low
