Burns and Their Remedies.

DR.. Charles s. Moody, writing in "Out
ing" on "Backwoods Surgery and Med-
cine" says in regard to burns:
Burns are classified according to de-
gree of injury. Those of the first de-
gree are where the skin is Redeemed, bur
no blister formed. The second degree in
cludes those where there has been decid-
ed blistering, and the third, where the
flesh has been charred. Those of the first
and second degrees are the most common
in about the proportion of 80 to 1.
"a burn of the first degree can be best
relieved by the application of cold water.
This is contrary to the teaching of a few
years ago, but is in full accord with that
of today. The water should be changed
as fast as it becomes warm.
Burns of the second degree require
more care. In the first place, do not in
terfere with the blister. The primary OBJ
ject in treating burns is to exclude air,
and the skin remaining intact will do
this much better than any artificial
means.
1.-THE Indians of the northwest prepare
dressing for burns by cooking deer
suet with balm of Gilead buds This is
the most effective application for severe
burns / have ever seen. IF deer suet is
not available, any fresh tallow that has
been cooked will serve as well. Throw a
handful of the buds into vessel and
cover them with the suet, boil for thirty
minutes and strain. When nearly cold
apply to the burn and cover with a soft
cloth. The pain ceases almost imme-
diately."

Significant Scarcity of seamen.

Experiences which have significant
bearing on the future of the merchant
marine are reported by masters of ships
at Portland, Oregon. which like San
Francisco. Seattle and Tacoma have for
years been centers for shipping agents
and profitable locations for sailor board
ing house enterprise. The British bark
Donna Francisco, which secured a cargo
after lying in ordinary at Astoria for
two years, was delayed at Portland aft
er she was ready to sail for no less than
twelve days because of a scarcity of
seamen and in the coast cities When
the Donna Francisco towed down the
Willamette for the Columbia, heading
for the Pacific ocean, she left at anchor
the British ship Arctic Stream, with a
cargo of wheat for the United Kingdom,
but with a shortage of ten sailors thai
compelled her to remain in port and lose
valuable time.
Conditions at Portland are ascribed to
an absence of sailors boarding houses
due to an attempt by a number of con
suls to secure the abolition of the sailor
boarding house law by the legislature;
but sailors do not appear in Portland
because of boarding house attractions,
and the scarcity of men for ships must
/ be due to other causes, one of which
undoubtedly is the small pay of the sail
or in comparison with the pay which
iency of the man aboard ship to master
and mates while on the seas. 1t seems
| clear that under present economic condi-
tons, with steyedOres and deckhand en-
| ployment the chief labor at sea on
| steamers, the "sailor-man' is going out
| with the sailing ship.
Hereafter the seamen is to be a work
| er who knows how TO paint, scrub
! down." polish brassIngs, and do similar
work. He will not be a sailor, because
, sailors are not needed to any great ex.
| tent even at the present time. The few
ships which linger will find il inereas
| ingly difficult to secure men, and in the
| course of time they will have to yield
| TO the mastless ships with smoking fun
nels Then the merchant marine of the
world will begin 10 move toward n com.
mon level so far as wages and conditions
| of steamship help are concerned, and the
American merchant marine will get on Z
footing in this respect with the merchant
marine of other powers. Then. as Il mat
ter of course, the American flag will be-
gin to appear at sea with more fire.
quency-that is, if the profits of marine
investment are as satisfactory as those
derived from investments on land.

ROSES.

By the National Council of horticulture
The best of all roses for outdoor plant
ing in the north is the japanese rose
ROSA rugosa) and its hybrids. The
original and several of its hybrids are
hardy as an oak tree. New varieties
are being produced every year and there
will soon be a list which in form and
color of blossoms will supply all wants.
The Rambler roses, such as the Grim
son Rambler, Dorothy Perkins, and the
like, are desirable, though occasionally
being killed back in severe winters. The
Polyantha roses like Clothilde Souper,
and the Baby Ramblers' are very
hardy, as are some of the moss roses
and the old-fashioned climbing and gar
den varieties.
In soil the rose perfers a clay or
heavy loan. In fact, it is almost useless
to try to grow roses in very sandy or
grayelly soil unless mixed with clay. The
rose is a gross feeder and requires rich
soil. This can be given if well rotted
manure is at hand, or if the manure is
not rotted it can be used on top of the
ground.
A great cause of failure with roses IS
planting them in the wrong place in the
yard Roses must have full exposure 10
the. sun of failure is sure. They mus
not be overshadowed by shrubs or trees
and must not be robbed of nourishmeH'
by tree or shrub roots.

Her Services as Red Cross Nurse
Highly Appreciated.

The Duke of Tamames, holder of a
very illustrious title, recently entertained
Miss Alexandra Wolff, an American, at

services TO wounded Spanish officers and
men during the recent campaign in Melil-

course. leaves matters unchanged. But
at present there is no worry as to ex-

Is there new source of rubber!
Doctor j. M. Macfarlane, director of
the Botanical Garden of the University
of Pennsylvania, says that New York
cactus-grower recently obtained from
him a specimen of a species of cactus
from which the New Yorker has discov-
cred that rubber can be obtained in pay
ing quantities. 1t is said that extensive
experiments have substantiated the prac-
ticality of the discovery, and led a group
of New Workers. interested in the subject
to organize for growing the rubber-produc-
ing cactus in California. There its cul-
tivation can be conducted at less ex
pense than in the climate of New York,
where the cactus thrives only as a green
house plant. The New Workers. have
also set on foot an expedition to scour
South America in the hope of finding
other varieties of the cactus that pro-
duce rubber. With the development of
the automobile, the demand for rubber
for tires has grown amazingly, and
caused an immense enhancement of the
price. This has been one of the factors
in bringing about the tremendous specu-
lation in rubber shares which has been
the sensation of the past few months in
London financial circles. The discovery
of a reliable new source of rubber would
be a boon to the industrial world.
