Crippled by tuberculosis.

According to recent report by DR..
Conrad Biesalski of Berlin, there are
$4,000 cripples in the German empire
out of a population Of 60,500,000. Over
$4,000 of the cripples are in need of
proper treatment. Doctor Biesalski
states that in Is per cent. of the Grip
pies examined, their deformity was
due to tuberculosis of the bones and
joints, and that there were 10000 such
children in great need of medical
treatment. He advocates the estab-
lishment of seaside sanatoria for this

of fruit or vegetables. ard like the
doctor. the more patience we have
the more money we make.
Soil which has grown vegetables is
generally sufficiently fertile to pro-
duce large yield Of strawberries.
Soil in which potatoes have been
grown is ideal.
Strawberries and vegetables can be
sold from the same wagon at the
same time, and II you have berries
of high quality it will aid you In sell
ing your vegetables, because fancy
grocers always are on the lookout for
fruit of the choicest quality. The
same is true of the commission mer
chant, and IL you sell to private fami-
lies you will find the housekeeper
wants the best.
To the gardener who has never
grown strawberries, but would like to
combine them with his vegetable busi-
ness. let me suggest that you begin in
small way, and increase your acre
age as experience and local condi-
tions may justify you in doing.
Many commercial gardeners know
from experience that strawberries
make a profitable addition to their
vegetable business. No other crop
with which have ever had any expe-
rience will yield as many dollars per
acre, and do 1t In so short a time, as
strawberries. IL Is not an uncommon
thing to get reports from growers who
are realizing anywhere from $500,
$500, $1,000 to $1,000 per acre each
year from their strawberries. Reports
of the larger quantities generally
come from strawberry growers who
have the advantage Of a long fr7Iiting
season. Last winter, while studying
the conditions and possibilities Of
| strawberry growing in the south, ]
met men in southern Texas who told
me that their strawberries made them
from $500 to 1000 per acre each
year. On the Pacific coast and In the
inter-mountain states, met men who
were doing even better than this.
In Michigan, my own state, many
growers are realizing from $500 to
$500; in Minnesota some growers re-
port equal results, and the same is
true in the east. In fact, in all states,
| the growers who are following inten-
sive methods are making splendid
showings and all seem to be more
than satisfied.

The grower of strawberries is more
sure of a good annual profit from
Strawberries than from almost any
other crop. because strawberries are
the hardest, as we'll as the best, OF
all fruits; and it does not require any
more labor to grow strawberries Of
high quality than it does to grow veg
etables of the same class.
In the growing OF strawberries, you
have practically no plant enemies-in-
sects or fungi-to combat, providing
you follow up-to-date methods. Rota-
tion of crops, fall plowing. thorough
and repeated cultivation. strong,
healthy plants, moving off the foliage
and burning Immediately after the
last picking, are the things which may
make spraying unnecessary.
Crop rotation is a necessity with
any kind of farming. 1t encourages
a healthy and productive condition
of the soil.
Fall plowing discourages all kinds
Of underground insect, such as the
white grub, root-maggot and wire
worm.
Thorough cultivation keeps down
weeds and all obnoxious growths,
which IL allowed to grow, would af-
ford a breeding and alternating place
for insects.
Strong. healthy plants insure you
against such enemies as the crown
miner. crown-borer. root-borer and
aphis. as well as fungous diseases.

that he daily expects to see an accident on that corner, especially as there are many children about there, who are constantly coming that way to school, or to any of the business places to which they might have errands. This gentle man thinks a warning now is preferable to the risk of loss of life which might occur should there be an accident at this point. A certain driver was known to say that when he was allowed 30 or even 25 minutes to make connections with the New York trains at Canaan, he could manage very well, although his headquarters were we'll out of the village; but when It got so that he was expected to make it in IS minutes, it was getting on his nerves and he was not sure he could stand it.. As he did not finish his season here, it IS safe to say that he concluded he was not willing to risk the lives of others as we'll as his own, and so left his place to be filled by one, for whom perhaps, life held fewer charms. A leading townsman said a few days ago, "Sooner or later something is going to happen" and we wonder if a word in time will be the means of making his prophecy futile. This is not rap at those who drive carefully, and maintain a rate of speed in keeping with the traffic and locality, but at those, who seem to desire to ride through life at the top speed. regardless of the comfort or safety of others. Public opinion on this subject is thorougly aroused, and we trust that the future will see automobilists driving more carefully.
