SOLD 50,000 ROSES
MORE THAN $1,000,000 IS IN
VESTED IN ROSE CULTURE
ILLINOIS GREENHOUSES.
Illinois’ greatest rose garden is lo
cated at Pana, 111. No other city, per
haps, in all the world produces as
many. During the busy season 40,000
i to 50,000 are shipped every day. More
than 20 acres of greenhouses, shelter
ing seéveral million plants and with
an annual production of 30,000,000 to
15,000,000 roses, comprise this great
industry of floriculture.
Rose experts are at a loss to know
whether it is the soil, air or water that
1s responsible for the excellence of the
roses that are produced here. The
greenhouses are the largest in the
world. Some of them contain 100,000
plants,
Thirty Buds to a Plant.
There are perhaps 25 or more miles
of steam pipes in some of the larger
groups of houses. It is imperative that
a uniform temperature of 61 to 71
’degrees be maintained to secure the
best results. The larger structures are
}6O feet in width and with a length of
400 feet. There are four companies en
' gaged in the rose production,-and each
;has certain specialties.
Repeated hybridization has created
many of the most beautiful specimens
of roses. It is claimed that the aver
age plant here will yield 30 perfect
buds, while elsewhere the usual limit
is but 20. A large number of the best
selling roses are thornless. The aver
age life of a rose plant is three years.
They are then destroyed and replaced
with new. The roses that are grown
for commercial purposes bloom win
ter and summer. Many of these orig
inated from grafted stock in the
marsh lands of the British Isles. The
roses are gathered while in bud each
morning and afternoon and ship
ments are usually made at night so
as to reach their destination the fol
lowing morning. The roses that are
particularly tender are gathered while
the bud is tight so as to insure safe
shipment.
$1,000,000 Invested. :
More than $1,000,000 is invested in
the rose-growing business here. There
is a heavy loss in glass breakage. Hail
storms always create havoc. Mischiev
ous boys have a penchant for tossing
stones through the roofs of the glass
houses.
Carbonic ice machines furnish re
frigeration for many of the cut flow
ers where it is necessary to ‘“harden”
them at a temperature of 45 degrees
for 12 hours to prolong the time be
fore wilting.
The American Beauty rose, which
has long ranked with the leading spe
cies, is considered by the Pana florists
to be too difficult to raise to be profit
able, even though the buds can be
sold for as much as $1 each. 'The
plants are probably the most healthy
of the rose genus and grow very large
but do not produce enough blooms
to satisfy the florists.
So insatiable is the demand for ros
es that the leading companies here
are steadily adding to their {facilities
and it will be no surprise if before
the vear is over that the annual pro
duction will aggregate 25,000,000 ros
es with 30 acres of greenhouses.

Armor and Concealed Machine Guns
Protect Fourth Federal Reserve.
CLEVELAND.—The new Fourth
Federal Reserve bank building here is
rapidly nearing completion and will
be ready for occupancy about June 1.
The building has many details of arch
itecture and ingenuity that make it
one of the most remarkable in the
United States.
The main vault is 30 feet below the
street level. Side and rear walls are
six feet thick. The front wall is seven
feet thick and has the heaviest door
in the world. The vault is designed
to hold upward of $2,000,000,000 in
gold and securities.
A gallery of armor plate surrounds
the first floor, with loopholes from
which guards can see everything oc
curring below.
Truck driveways lead directly into
the mail room. It cannot be “rushed.”
The truck first enters a vestibule and
the street door must be closed and
locked -behind it before the second
door, opening direct into the mail
room, can bé opened.
Armed guards can look down upon
the mail room and command it with
rifles. and statues at each of the en
trances to the building will conceal
machine guns.
Root W aits for Harding;
Quotes an Old [ingle
Distinguished Caller Forced to Cool
His Heels in Waiting Room.
WASHINGTON, D. C.—Forced to
cool his heels in the waiting room of
the white house for nearly an hour
until he could see President Harding
today, Elihu Root gave vent to his
feelings in rhyme.
It made him recall the early days of
the Harrison administration when job
seekers found it difficult to reach the
president and other -high officials of
the government. They complained that
Mr. Harrison devoted too much of
his time to his.young grandson; that
Vice President Levi Morton was too
much engaged with the hotel he then
owned in Washington, and that Post
master General Wanamaker was too
much absorbed in religious affairs.
The situation provoked the composi
tion of a lively jingle, which Mr. Root
quoted to .newspaper men today to
describe his ‘own plight: .
“A baby runs the white house,
Levi runs the bar,
Wanny runs the Sunday school,
And dammit, here we are.”

IS CLAIM OF DAYTON COM
PANY, WHOSE TIRES ARE
SOLD BY DAWSON FIRM.
Tire engineers have recognized for
vears that if the carcass of a tire could
be built so that it would overcome
the weaknesses of rim cut, tread sep
aration and bulging when underin
flated that such a tire would prove
revolutionary in the number of miles
of service which it could be expected
to deliver. :
This is true because it enables a
tire to yield to road obstructions. It
protects the tread from chipping and
cutting and results in thousands of
additional miles of service.
Practically all tires during the past
ten years have been sold with a more
or less provisional guarantee, depend
ing largely upon the maintenance of
a high air pressure to protect the car
cass from deterioration.
Therefore, the announcement of the
Dayton Rubber Mfg. Co. that Day
ton Thorobred Cords were built to
deliver their maximum service when
underinflated comes as a revolution
ary departure in tire construction. It
is in direct opposition to all the warn
ings of tire makers that a tire had
to be highly inflated if the owner
were to expect. long service.
A great step in the comfort and ser
vice which may be secured from the
use of automobiles is made by this
announcement. Dayton tires are sold

Some Dog Rat Killers ‘

Fox Terriers Used to Keep Rodents
From Entering South America.
BUENOS AIRES.—The dog work
ers of Buenos Aires keep union hours.
They are of great help to the na
tional department of health, which, in
order to prevent any epidemic from
‘;making its appearance in the biggest
city of South America, is waging a
war on rats coming from outside the
}country.
| All steamers coming into the port
lof Buenos Aires are gassed, in order
to prevent any of the many rats they
carry from landing, and thirty fox
terriers have been especially trained
'in rat hunting, so as to deal with any
that survive. .
~ These dogs start work at seven in
the morning and keep on the job un
til 11, when they are allowed to knock
off - for lunch. :
At 1 o’clock their work starts again,
lasting until 5 or 6, when they go of
their own accord to take an antiseptic
bath before having their dinner.
The dogs on the port work always
fixed hours, ‘and it is estimated that
they kill about 30,000 rats monthly,
effectively helping to keep the city in
good health, as it has been found up
on analysis that the rats in most of
cases show germs of bubonic plague.

AID TO MARINERS IN CHART
"ING THEIR COURSE.
SAN FRANCISCO, Cal.—The pre
cise contour of the Pacific continental
shelf from .San Francisco Bay to
Point Descanso, Mexico, revealed re
cently in the publication by the Hy
drographic office of the navy depart
ment of a bathymetric chart, shows
the floor of the ocean in a detailed
way which will enable mariners here
after to determine the position of their
craft when landmarks are obstructed
from view by climatic conditions.
The information is based on a re
cent cruise made by the destroyers
Hull and Corry, employing the re
cently invented Sonic finder.
Saving of Hours.
The Sonic finder, a device which de
termines the depth of the ocean by re
cording the time required for the
sound to reach the bottom and re
echo to the ship, takes a 2,000-foot
sounding in less than a minute, sup
planting a method which required six
hours.
Originally undertaken at the request
of the Carnegie Institute to aid in
finding earthquake faults in the Pa
cific ocean, the result obtained by the
charting cruise far exceeded the orig
inal purpose, according to Lieut. Ly
man K. Swenson, of the navy depart
ment. &
Geologists may employ the chart to
‘race the extension of oil fields, sit
uated on the southern California coast,
to submerged prominences in the
same vicinity offshore, it is said.
Elaborating the' possibilities of such
a chart, Lieutenant Swenson said it
would enable anthropologists to trace
links between continents in order to
tcach a determination of the manner
in which animals migrated to coun
tries which are now separated by
oceans. :
Revelations Regarding Ocean Floor.
Great revelations have been made
regarding the floor of the ocean off
the Pacific coast, which show an egg
shaped, submerged prominence on
the bed of the Pacific coast at a point
30 miles southwest of the Farallone
Islands, off the Golden Gate entrance
of San Francisco tbay.
The chart also shows that if San
Francisco Bay and the Pacific ocean
were pumped down 100 fathoms (600
feet), the coast line would be remov
ed 30 miles from the Golden Gate
straits and connect “with the Faral
lones.
Off the coast of southern Califor
nia the ocean is spotted with depres
sions and contours resembling a land
condition of mountain and lakes. This
condition obtained in a line with the
oil fields off the coast of Santa Bar
bara county.

NEW MOTOR SLEIGH FOR THE
POLAR REGIONS HAS COM
FORTS OF PULLMAN.
STOCKHOLM.—A - new type of
motor sleigh designed to provide the
comforts of a pullman car for polar
explorers has been experimented with
in the arctic regions of Sweden and
is now being perfected by the invent
or, J. W. Sandstrom, chief of the
swedish weather bureau.
Mr. Sanstrom in an . address just
delivered before the Swedish Physics
society declared that polar explora
tion ought to be raised from the level
of hazardous sport to that of well
equipped scientific research. The ex
plorer needs swift and reliable means
of transportation, a dependable plant
for the preparation of food, a com
fortable bed, a table at which to
work, a darkroom for developing’
photographs, ete., and these advant
ages are all provided by the new mo
tor sleigh.
This new vehicle is an adaption of
the principal of the tank. Sufficient
pillar treads to carry a three-ton car®
go over loose snow several feet in
depth. A 36-horsepower gasoline mo
tor propels this strange craft at the
rate of seven miles an hour. The in
terior of the car is fitted out compact
ly with folding beds, patent kitchen
and other special equipment which a
scientist needs in a sheltered place.
It is planned to have similar motor
sleighs in the explorer’s train for the
transportation of fuel and supplies. |
