The feasibility of a new industrial loft building for Norwich is to be the topic brought up in the N ich board of trade monthly meeting for March, next Monday night, a topic which has been impressed upon the officers by their experience with new industries which have been attacted here since the Thermos plant was lccated in Norwich. The proposition will be pre- sented that the citizens of Norwich ought to provide such a building, mod- ern in al] requirements, if it expects to get new industries to locate here. It is believed that several of those that were here could have been secur- ed if there had been a modern indus- trial building to show them, but they absolutely refused to look at the build- ings that were available. It was pot only the officers of the concerns interested that declined to consider the locations that could be shown them, but it was understoed that the help as well will nat work in factory or manufacturing plants that do not conform to the modern ideas of light, ventilation, fire protection and other sanitary and health contributing requirements. 1t is believed that it can be shown that such a building would show a 3 to 4 per cent. invest- ment for those who put their money into it, while at the same time having a contributing value in other ways in the increased amount of retail and ‘wholesale business which would neces- sarily come to the city with the loca- tion of new industries here. Hartford's experience in a $100,000 invesitment in building an addition for a typewriter plant is shown to have increased that city’s populatien by 20,000 in 12 years, put into circulation $17,000,300 since 1890, resulted in the employment of 4,000 hands in the fall of 1912, and to have created a demand for many hundreds of homes, giving an impotus to Hartford business that was never dreamed of when the $100,- 000 building was first talked of.

Shields entered a demur- rer, which was overruled by Judge Brown, and Serra was hound over to the higher court. Bends were fixed at $1,000, which Serra was unable to se- cure. In the latter part of the after- on he was taken to jail. Cherles Serra is recovering from the wound made by the revolv bullet in his head. FUNERAL. William H. Chapman. The funeral of Willlam H.

Roy of Taftville was pre- sented before the city court Wednes- day upon 2 complaint charging him with using imitation butter in his restaurent in Taftville, without hav- ing a sign posted in his place of bus- iness to the effect that he was using such butter. It is allgged that on Deec. 34 he provided such “Uutter to George Fowler of Hartford.

The arrest was made by Sheriff Stanton. Enlarging Cigar Manufaotery. The work of enlarging and Improv- ing the cigar manufactory of J. A. George on Main street is well on tow. ards completion.

Painful But Not Serious Injury in His Room in New York Tw_p Subjects Treated in State Bulle tins from Agricultural Experiment Station, A further addition to the agricultural expe/iment station's series of reports is given to the public with Rulletin 174 on the Wood-using Industries of Conneeticut; 175 on the Cost of Agri- cultural Lime in Connecticut, and part of the annual report, Connecticut Feeding Stuffs. The lime report s particularly in- teresting to raisers of garden stuff in view of the agitation for the further use of lme in the soil. The report says: “We urge those who are liming their land to leave a strip unlimed, in order to show whether the lime has a striking effect, and to wait about final udgment for two or three seasons. he benefielal effects, while positive, may not be immediately seen. The woad-using report shows that in a year Connecticut's sawmills cut 222,945,000 board feet. The total amount consumed by the industries here 1s 110,051,323 feet. There are 58 kinds of wocd used in the state, of which 26 are grown here. In the city of New FHaven alone there are 92 manufacturing concerns that use waod in some form in thelr products.

The United States, says the Depart- ment of Agriculture, is probably the largest consumer of Circassian wal- nut, one of the world's best known and most expensive cabinet woods. The high cost of Circasslan wainut is due to the scarcity of the beautifully figured veriety demanded for furniture and interlor finish, for the tree iteelf ig more widely distributed than almost any other of commercial importance. The demund for the best wood how- ever, iways outrun the supply. even in the 18th century when wars in Europe were frequent, so much Circas- sian walnut was used for gunstocks that the sapply was seriously depleted. Early in the nineteenth ocentury the wood of 12,000 trees was used for this purpose alone. Single trees, containing cholce burls or fine bird’s-eved figures have sold for more than $3,000. The tree i native to the eastern slopes of the Caucasus and ranges east- ward to the foothills of the Himalaya Mountains, from which it extends south ward to northern India and the moun- tains of upper Burma. It has bee: widely planted in Burope and the Unit- ed States, in this country under the name of English walnut. The wood grown heres, however, has not the qual- ities demanded by the cabinet and fur- niture maker. Much of the Circassian welnut now used comes from the Black ea and other parts of Asia. According to a ecireular just issued by the Foreat Serviee the demand for walnut has resulted in the substitution of other waonds.
