DIABETES.

From late figures the hope of recov-
ery under the new emollient treatment
seems to be about as follows:
In people of sixty and over results
are quite uniform, probably nine
tenths recovering. While at fifty and
over a large majority of all cases yield
to the treatment, below fifty and ap-
preaching forty the percentage is moi
high probably not much over hall
yielding.
Under thirty the percentage is less

very few and most of these were OBJ

Preservation of City Trees.

The Twentieth Century club wants
the city to spend $4,000 a year on
caring for the shade trees in our
streets. The demand Is a modest one.
We have thousands of trees worth
5000 each or more, not to speak OF
the commoner ones Of less value.
What manufacturer who had invest
ed hundreds of thousands Of dollars
In q plant would allow it to go to
wreck for lack OF a few thousand dol
lars a year for maintenance? Yet
that Is what we are doing with our
trees. We spend money freely in set
ting them out and then we leave
them to the mercy of insects and
other pests. It would be far wiser to
spend what money we can spare IN
taking care of the trees we have rath.
er than go on setting out more, know
ing that in a few years they will In
all probability have succumbed to the
unnatural conditions in which they
are set. By all means preserve our
trees. There Is nothing which beauti-
fes a city more, nothing which. with
a proper annual expenditure, yields q
better return.-Detroit Journal.

7AR's BAD EFFECT ON TREES
Road ~surfaetno, SO Common In me
Country and Europe, Shown e
BE Injurious.

The tarring OF the roads has come
70 be a common practice in this coun-
try and In Europe, especially In the
neighborhood Of cities where b auto
mobile traffic has been heaviest. A
few wears ago the French botanist, DR..
Catin made a study of the trees along
\ the roadway In the Bois de Boulogne
In Paris to find whether the treatment
4 given the roads had any influence upon
I. the vegetation. This examination
brought out the fact that the trees
that had received the dust from such
roads were much affected; their
growth was stunted, the leaves small,
|. shriveled up, and became spotted. In
investigations made subsequently he
tried to find out whether there were
not other effects upon more deep
! lying parts, and gave special atten-
lion to the catalpa, or Indian bean"
as 1t is called in this country.
Comparing the twigs of normal trees
. with those Of affected trees. all hav-
ing been cut off on the LIST OF July, he
found that those on the normal trees
/ were considerably larger at the base,
The reduction in the affected trees is
particularly confined to the woody lay
ers, as the bark is Of the same thick
ness on all the twigs, says a writer II
Harper's Weekly. The wood cells are
I much smaller, whereas the layers I'M
mediately under the skin are develop
ed much more in the trees attacked by
tar dust. Specimens gathered In the
autumn showed more important diher'
ences. In the normal trees the twigs
had the usual deposits of reserve
starch, whereas in the trees grow
I ing along the tarred roads no starch
was present.
Other trees showed parallel effects.
Thus the black locust and the one-leaf
locust, whether collected In the early
summer or In the autumn. showed un-
favorable effects upon the twigs and
leaves when the trees were showered
with dust from the tarred roads. The
corky layers Of the bark developed II
/ regularly, and the starch was less
abundant than normally. Finally, alb
normal cork formations appeared upon
the veins of the leaves of pelargenium
and in the leaf stalks of sycamore and
chestnut trees.
These effects upon the growth of the
trees, and especially the inhibition OF
the starch formation, explain why II
Is that the effects of road tarring have
not been observed soon after the ap
\ Qiication cf the tar. The injurious eft.
feet upon a tree IS cumulative. For
two OF three seasons the tree a put
forth new shoots at the expense of re
serve food of previous years; but grad
nally the noxious tar dust brings about
the unfavorable symptoms. If some
thing were to be introduced as a sub
stitute for tarring, it would again be
several years before we could be quite
sure that it did not have an undesir
able effect upon the vegetation OF GU
parks and roadsides.
