NAMES BURBERRY CROP.
A Million Dollar Industry and Its
Start.

Packard, in the New York Evening Post.
Eastern Names million-dollar blue
berry crop is being picked. That's what
they called it last year. and there is no
reason to believe the yield is this year
any less In Washington county alone a
conservative estimate of the money that
will be paid to pickers in the short sea-
son Of four or five weeks is eighty thou
sand dollars for the berries that the can
ners will sell for two hundred thousand.
Those are tidy sums to be earned in so
short period by herding-so to speak
the low fruit OF the sandy barrens
Now land that will produce blueberries
and is Of questionable value for anything
else is beginning to sell for fancy prices
per acre.
The farmers method is this: He picks
a sandy upland and burns it over rather
early in the spring Care should be taken
to select weather when the bushes and
last years grasses will burn but when
there is still moisture enough below to
prevent the flame from getting down into
the humus. That makes the soil too bar
rem even for blueberries. If there is not
enough naturally there to burn meadow
hay is spread about and fired. 1t is
magical the way the BURBERRY bushes
come up after these fires. Probably the
roots are there dormant and waiting only
the potash liberated from the ashes to
fertlize them into vigorous growth The
next year these plants, all of size be-
cause grown at the same time under
similar conditions, bloom and produce
c.ose-set racemes of fat blue fruit with a
juicy interior and a sprightly sweetness
that is most tempting to the palate BY
the middle Of August the picking season
Is In full swing and it continues at its
best for little more than two weeks
dwinding to non-paying proposition not
long after the LIST of September. The
berries all ripen at once, and, when fate
has been kindly, are massed in an as
tonishing profusion. The BURBERRY pick
er no longer goes at it with both hands
and a pail. He has instead a tooth-edged
tin SCOOP shaped something like a dust
pan, with which he scrapes the berries
from the bushes by the quart and dumps
them into a half-bushel box. Down on
the cape they will be raking cranberries
by and by with cranberry rakes The
BURBERRY instrument is something like
the cranberry rake reversed.

Quiet Streets About Hospitals.
Cincinnati Times-Star.


That much Of Americas prediction to
nervous troubles is directly traceable to
the multiplicity of unnecessary city
noises seems to be we'll established in
the minds of investigators. Many peo-
pie. in fact, are forced to enter hospitals
and rest cures by nerves that have been
worn out by useless and preventable
noises. That the streets around hos
pitfalls should be kept quiet as possible
doesn't admit of argument-and yet Gin
cinnati is lamentably careless on this i'm
portant point.
In New York an excellent plan obtains.
Simple signs are erected on the streets
that lead past certain hospitals, reading:
This is a hosrita street. Quiet The

by changing street car bells, irritating
honk-honking Of automobile horns and
raucous calls Of teamsters.
Cincinnati is soon to open its new hos
pital on Burnet avenue In Avondale.
Across the street the Jewish hospital. has
for many years been In operation. Scat
tered over the city are other hospitals,
taking care Of the sick: but there Is no
concerted attempt made to throw quiet
zones around these places, much as such
zones are needed.
Council should pass an ordinance look
ing to the reduction of unnecessary and
nerve-racking noises. not only about the
new hospital. but about all others of i'm
Hortance within the city limits.
Medical authorities are agreed that

Sound School Building Ideas.

The first essential of sound school
building is what may me called noble
and spacious simplicity. All fritter and
frivolous Communications should be
avoided.
The scientific designer never overIooks
the feature of appropriateness. A school
is not a dollhouse, and should never
even remotely. convey any such impress
sion. The school is a solid, sedate, i'm
presSive institution. and should be built
that way. and at the same time in such
attractive manner as to appear coy and
inviting to the little ones who have to
visit it so often during the most impress
sionable years of life. No school can be
said TO be fit, much less we'll designed
and scientifically constructed. which does
not secure for the pupils the following
essentials at least: Sanitation, safety
restful surroundings plenty of light well
direct and diffused and an abundance of
fresh air, in other words. effective ven
tilation

Sound Deadening Method.

One of the hardest things to accom-
plish in building construction is perfect
sound deadeninS. says writer in the
Improvement Bulletin. 1t would appear
that there being no uncertainty as to the
nature of sound and as to its conduction,
no difficulty should be encountered in Sc
curing the deadening or killing of that
conduction. There would seem to be sew
erdl reasons, however, why SO few of our
buildings are successfully deadened. Per-
haps the chief reason is that sound is
transmitted through all rigid materials,
and it is absolutely essential 10 construct
floors and partition walls of rigid mate
riaIs. Another reason is that sound is
subject to reflection and many materials
used in building construction are excel
lent sound refiectors.

SLEEPING PORCHES
NOW WIDELY USED
Former Adjunct to TubercuIo-
sis Cure Fast 0utgroWing
That Limited Function.

In view of the fact that no substitute
for fresh air has yet been found. it is
inevitable that those who go from ILL
ventilated stores and factories and homes
whose air is usually as impure and in
sufficient will. even if naturally strong.
become open to the attacks of pneumonia
and tuberculosis.
The open-air sleeping porch, or bal
cony. is said to be the up-to-date solu-
ton of the important problem Of provid-
ing the best conditions for. hours of
nightly rest
Built adjoining the bedroom. the Sleep
ing porch gives it's occupant all the ben
ehts OF sleeping out of doors. and the
former room for comfortable dressing
room, the temperature of which, during
winter months. need not be lowered by
open windows.
Originally devised as an adjunct to the
cure of tuberculosis. the sleeping porch
is fast outgrowing this limited use. for
it is being recognized as of almost in
calculable value in maintaining health.
Not "Cure ALL" But Preventive.
1t is not. in any sense, a "cure-all,"
but a preventive. The effects Of being
able to breathe deeply of natures vitaliz-
ing element in unlimited quantity. ply
sicians say. during the hours when the
boy is recuperating from the days work
cannot be other than beneficial.
If the sleeping room habit is held to.
they add (and when thoroughly tried it
usually isl, it's devotee cannot fail to
reap the rich reward of increased effi-
cheney and keener enjoyment of life.
For those Of low vitality and a tendency
toward the blues" which are often
found together, sleeping in the open air
frequently does wonders. 1t is readily
seen that growing children are greatly
benefited by the change from the indoor
bedroom to the sleeping porch.
