injury is noticed, the wound is cleaned
and covered with grating wax and
wrapped with cloth SO that the air is
excluded and the wood prevented from

through the soft wood will continue to
do so, and, returning through the in
ner bark, growth will be made all
around the upper part of the wound,
and if the latter is not too large there
is a chance of its healing over. II.
however, the wood becomes dry before
the bandage is put on. it will almost
certainly die When the wax and band

last fall at Muscatine.
He intended christening the craft
the Helen Blair. after his little

change with the department of navi-
CATION at Washington.
