PROPER VENTILATION
PREVENTS PNEUMONIA
Health Office Warns the Peo-
Pile Against Wrong Meth
DDS of Living.

. Stating that one Of the principal causes
for the development of pneumonia is the
lowering of the resisting powers OF the
individual by wrong methods of living.
the District of Columbia health depart
ment weekly bulletin, just issued. calls
attention to the Importance rof citizens
providing proper ventilation in order to
prevent the development Of the disease
Text Of the Report.
The report says: During the autumn
months in this climate We may expect
more or less sudden and extreme varia-
tions in temperature, and coincident with
these variations we find that pneumonia
prevails to considerable extent, as it
does during the early spring months
when similar changes in the weather
conditions occur. 1t is perhaps difficult
for undue prevalence Of pneumonia, but
one sure cause for many of the cases is
the lowering of the resisting powers Of
the individual by wrong methods of liv-
ing. A few days of pleasant weather fol-
lowed by a severe fall in temperature are
usually accompanied by an increased prev
alence of pneumonia, and while cold
weather and pneumonia often go hand in
hand, cold weather by itself does not
necessarily cause Inflammation of the
lungs 1t is, however, In a measure re-
sponsible for the tight closing of win
doWs, and too often the consequent lack
of proper ventilation.

NAPLES TAKEN OUT
Replacing Trees Unable to
Stand the Winter Storms.
PRUNING DISTRICT FOREST
Most Of the Planting Will Begin
First Of Next Month, Some
Being Done Now.

preparatory to the arrival Of King Win
ter. work in thte Districts forest is being
carried on with energy so as to have the
decks cleared for action when the old
man arrives with his legions of ice, hail
and snow. OF course, the trees in the
District are not usually regarded as a
forest, but they really constitute one, or
at least would II they were placed close
enough together. It has been estimated
that the District has within its bound
aries at least 100000 trees, which, If in
forest array. would cover a tract of about
1, 200 acres.
Though much of the work with the
trees is done in the springtime, enough is
left to keep the United States govern
ment and District officials busy in the
fall. Some pruning here, some planting
there and other necessary work will oc-
cupy many days to come.
Removing the Soft Naples.
One of the most important branches of
the work which is being carried on under
the direction of Capt. Mark Brooke, as
sistant to the Engineer Commissioner, is
the removal of the old silver or soft
naples now growing on 18th street north
"eSI Oct"cSu NeW 1OTh anu feHHSylNd-
MIA avenues. The tops are being cut
from the trees. the stumps removed and
finally holes dug in which new trees will
be planted. Nearly all the trees. includ
ing an elm and some American syca-
mores, were in poor condition. All the
SOFT naples In various parts of the city
which are in poor condition will be re-
placed. as far as the appropriation will
justify.
Easily Broken by Storms.
These trees are not considered good
shade trees. Their wood is SO soft that
they are easily broken by storms and
they decay easily. The trees which will
be used to replace them are considered
as among the best of shade trees-oriental
planes, also known as European syca-
more; Norway naples, red oaks, pin oaks,
American elms and ginko trees.
The Norway maple trees and some of
the others give good shade about three
of the others are slower. It Is estimated
that within five years some Of the trees
will be giving as much If not more shade
than the trees being removed do at pres
ent.
About seventy men are working for the
District, engaged in cutting down the
old trees. digging holes for new ones and
doing repair work.
Most of the governments planting will
begin about the first of next month, but
some is being done now. Several trees are
being planted in the grounds around the
Library of Congress. These trees will re-
place those which have died during the
summer. Most Of the pruning is CON-
pleted.
