What Ohio Experiment Station 10 DC
ing to Promote Forestry.

The Ohio station is planning some
important work relative to the wood
lots of the state. In a recent con,
munlcation Prof. Thome says:
THE farm woodlot is an important
factor in timber production in Ohio
Are these woodlots held at a profit or
loss? Undoubtedly there are some
second growth timber tracts where the
stand of trees of the best kinds Ia

Measurements and calculations viii!
disclose at what rate a tract of tin,-
Der is growing into money. and a
careful study OF the conditions will
show it should be managed SO as to
make it more profitable. The inves-
legations referred to have in view
the, determination of the kinds of
trees. or mixture of trees. which are
yielding the greatest profits. as they
are found growing in natural second
sroN:-f forests. The station has al.
ready found that planted groves os
catalpa and locust may give returns
exceeding ten dollars per acre an
nually. While the natural forests
may fall short of this. it will doubt
less prove true that they are growing
into value much faster than is COM
monty supposed. How to make them
still more profitable. especially those
which are in bad condition is a prob
lem which the station is willing to
try to help the owners to solve, but
at the outset 1t should be understood
that numerous factors enter in which
may make experimentation necessary.
The station is ready to determine the
prospective increase in value of tracts
of timber. but it may not be able,
in all cases, to unreservedly recon-
mended a course of treatment which

essential. without which 1t could not

by grating portion of ductless

the large hospitals in Berlin, and by
the grating process one end of the
mothers thyroid gland was released

For days neither motherr nor child
was permitted to move. To insure a
successful grating operation they
had been tightly bound together. the
child's body against her mothers neck,
and there they remained until the
severed end of the thyroid gland had
knit firmly to the pancreas, forming a
living, pulsating link between mother
and daughter. Then the link was cut.

pancreas. II is believed now that
both mother and child will recover.
The complete success of the opera

professor Care is an eminent Ger
man surgeon whose success in the
transplanting OF organs from one ami

lower animals to human beings. has
attracted the attention and admira.
ton of surgical men all over the
world. When his report of how he
changed Lena Wolff from an idiot into
n bright and intelligent little girl is
completed II will form a valuable ad-
dition to the list of modern miracles
of surgery.
From the details of the case al
ready received from Germany IL APP
pears that Lena Wolff was born an
idiot six years ago. says the New
York World. Reason never dawned
for her as in other babies. She had
come into the world without one ap-
parent spark of intelligence and
seemed doomed to pass her whole life
without knowing the joys and sorrows
of living.
Her case was called TO the attention
OF Professor Care. who was inter
ested from the very beginning. be-
cause In 1t he saw a possibility of be-
Ing able to prove the correctness of n
theory on which he had been at work.
This involved the probable action or
influence that certain substances or
secretions found in the ductless
glands of the human body have upon
the blood.
1t is the blood. as everybody knows.
fhat feeds the brain. keeping 1t active
and clear and in good working order.
IL the blood is thin or sluggish the
brain is first to record that fact. The
great German surgeon knew that the
reason Lena VOLTS brain was dun
and inactive was because the blood
Eas not feeding 1t as 1t should.
One of the principal duties of the
pancreas. situated Just behind the
stomach, is to superintend the regular
feeding of the brain with good blood.
