of using thin beaten copper fastened to a

now for all sorts of construction-build-

New York. April 15.-More than 100
people answered the advertisement Of
Mount Moriah hospital in East Second
street offering $25 to the one who would
yield a quart OF his blood in a trans
fusion operation on Mrs. Rosie Reisler,
Brooklyn. Although the advertisement
plainly called for men only. there was
one woman among the applicants. She
said that she needed the money badly
and tina her physical condition was as
good as that OF any man.
When the porter of the house went
out early in the morning to scrub the
steps there was a long line of men
waiting outside. Many of them were
longshoremen. who said that by com-
ing early they wouldn't miss a days
pay If their services We're not needed.
1t was 2 O'Clock in the afternoon, how
ever. before Superintendent Spector
had made the last examination.
Selection was made o n the basis of
the physical condition of the man. and
Superintendent Spector said that he
tried to select the applicant whose
blood corresponds most nearly to that OF
the patient.

On one of the fields included in the
four fields referred to in the above
table plowing to depth of 10 inches
gave the highest yield-23.4 bushels
per acre. On the other three fields
blowing over 10 inches in depth gave
the highest yields, yet the difference
was not sufficiently large to offset the
extra cost of the deeper plowing and
subsoiling. On two other fields, during
1907 and 1908, the following average
yields were obtained from different
depths of blowing:
