Peculiar Rain Tree Rain from tree foliage is an inter- esting phenomenon of the Canary is- notes that the famous rain tree of Ferro, Canaries, grew on a head land where the mountain mists from the trade winds collected, and by means of water tanks under it the poor in- habitants of that island, where there are no springs, actually gathered enough water for drinking purposes. The effect of the foliage in condens- ing moisture is said to be evident to anybody passing through a mist-cov- ered forest in any of these islands. Farm Community Organized--Gets Results What a farm community can do for its own progress when the get- together spirit prevails is well shown with the Burwood communty, Wil- liamson County, Tenn. This com- munity, encouraged by the county agent, formed an organization which embraced men's interests, women's interest, canning clubs, corn clubs, and poultry clubs. In this way they received a community charter and proceeded to work. When the wheat increase was asked, 50 acres was as- signed to Burwood community; the community came across with 323 acres in 10 days. Similarly organized communities made it possible for Williamson County to pledge an in- creased acreage of 2,000, while the county was asked for only 1,369 acres.
