white lead is pure and unless the
linseed oil is pure and raw. The
boiled linseed oil or paints which
contain driers have proven injuri-
Gus. In using this material it is
advised that the tree be first clear
ed of borers and the trunk and all
the wood made perfectly clean. 1t
is then painted from a depth of at
least two inches below the surface
to a height varying anywhere from
one and one-half to two feet above
the snrface.
Many entomologists report that
they have had no experience with
this material and are unable to ex-
press an opinion as to its value, A
few speak in favor of it. and a few
others report injurious or unsatis-
factory results from its use. At the
Ames experiment station the prac-
tice has been followed for the last
two years of coating the nursery
stock and trunks Of young trees
with strong lime sulphur solution,
The results thus far have been Alto
gether satisfactory. Sometimes
more than one application is need
ed during the dormant season in
order to keep the bark thoroughly
protected 1t is desirable that this
method be given a thorough trial.
We should be glad If your readers
would test it and report results"

A German AIlesory.

On a recent trip to Germany
Doctor Harvey Wiley, the Govern
ment's pure-food expert, heard an
allegory with reference to the sub
ject of food authorizations which. he
contends, should cause Americans
to congratulate themselves that
things are so well ordered in this
respect in the United States.
The German alleeory was sub
stantially as follows:
Four flies, which had made their
way into a country pantry, deter
mined to have feast.
One flew to the sugar and ate
heartily; but soon died. for the sugar
was full of white lead.
The second chose the -four as his
diet; but Jared 10 better, for the
-four was loaded with plaster of
Paris.
The third sampled the syrup, but
his six legs were presently raised IN
the air, for the syrup was colored
with aniline dyes.
The fourth fly, seeing all his
friends dead, determined to end his
life also, and drank deeply of the
fly poison which was found in
convenient saucer.
He is still alive and in good
health. That. too, was adulterated.
Not a Smart Dog.
Uncle Tom. Have you named
your dog yet, Harry?
Harry. Sure thing. l named
him after you.
Uncle Tom. That's not very
complimentary, is it?
Harry. Oh, well, he hasn't got
sense enough to know the differ
ence. Exchange.

Tree Protection.

A subscriber wished to know if
pine tar is dangerous to use on
young trees to keep off rabbits We
referred the matter to Professor S.
A. Beach. of the Iowa station, who
writes:
Pure pine tar is not regarded as
detrimental when applied to the
trunks of young trees. Gas tar
however, sometimes contains pois-
onous substance which may injure
or even kill the trees, A very COM
mon way of protecting young trees
against rabbits is to cover the
trunks with wood veneer protectors.
These are comparatively inexpen-
sive, and serve a double purpose in
offering some protection against
sun-scald as well as rabbits. Fine
wire cloth is also used for the same
purpose.
Recently good deal has been
written about the use of white lead
and pure raw linseed oil. to be APP
piled as paint on the trunks of
young trees as a protection against
mice, rabbits and borers, Prot. W.
B. Atwood, Charlottesville, Virginia,
formerly director of the Virginia
experiment station. has been exper-
imentine along this line since 1889.
His reports concerning it have ap-
peared in different publications. En-
tomologists in various other states
have undertaken experiments with
this material II appears to be
GENERALLY agreed that there is dan

PLEASANT PLAINS, HUGUENOT
PRINCE BAY
ST. VINCENT'S HOSPITAL
NEW AUTO AMBULANCE

st. Vincent's Hospital has follow
ed the example of the hospital in
Manhattan of that name and has
purchased a handsome automobile
ambulance for use on the roads of
this county. The car is a 35 h. p.
Cadillac, purchased through Staten
Islands agent for those cars, Mr..
John D. Killian, well known in auto
mobile circles. The car was only
ordered a short time ago and the
hospital managers fully appreciate
the hurry order which Mr.. Killian
sen in for the car.
The car is of regular size, fully
equipped with brass gong, electric
lights, and uses the quick detachable
tires, so that no time will be wasted
in answering a call should a tire be
p%unctured on the way. The body of
the car Is painted dark red and the
letters are bright red. 1t has q speed
of twenty-five to thirty miles an
hour.
The ambulance was delivered on
Thursday morning and at 1907 re-
sponded to its first call to No. 220
Van Pelt avenue, Mariners Harbor,
in the fast time of seven minutes.
The return trip was made in nine
minutes. The difference in time was
due to the fact that the driver went
slightly slower when carrying a pa
tient. The call was for David Barry,
a fourteen-year-old school boy, who
was attacked with ma1arial fever.
The ambulance attracted much at
tention as 1t was being driven
through the streets.

.PATROLMAN IS
OUT ON BAIL
Boy Whom He Shot is in a
Serious Condition.

Charged with having shot William
JT~rantacasto, sixteen years old, in the
back, 1nficting a wound from which
he has a fighting chance for his re-
covery, Patrolman Arthur H. Weaver,
Of the Eighty-ninth precinct station,
New Dorp, is under $4,000 bail for a
hearing before Magistrate Marsh, of
the second district court. Bail has
been furnished by Felix Boehm, Of
New Dorp.
During the past several weeks this
summer many tough and unruly
young men have visited the island
on Saturday and Sunday and the
police have had their hands full to
subdue them on the trains and troll
leys when they were returning to
Manhattan. New Dorp, last Sunday,
had its share of these young rufians.
About $3.50 O'Clock, while Patrolman
Weaver was at the corner of Sixth
street and New Dorp lane, he came
across a gang that vas making a
disturbance. Trantacasto, who was
n of the gang, was placed under
arrest by the officer. The prisoner
tried to escape. The officer chased
the boy and called to him to stop.
Then he drew his revolver, evidently
intending to fire over his head, but
instead aimed too low. The boy fell
to the ground and was later removed
to the S. r. Smith Infirmary, where
the bullet vas extracted. Weaver
was placed under arrest the next day
by Captain O'Conner, of the Eighty
ninth precinct, and sent to Stapleton
on a technical charge of felonious
assault.
