disseminate hygienic knowledge in
districts where modern methods have
hitherto been unknown and to teach
medical principles so that the igno-
rance of the people in regard to such
subjects may be dissipated.
In this way he hopes to supplement
the equipment with which for the
past year he has been fighting dis
ease and to secure the employment
of modern ideas in a campaign for
health and the rout of disease-breed-
ing habits. Under his direction the
first steps have been taken that the
jewellers in the city of Jerusalem and
the surrounding country have ever
known for the relief of the condi-
tons that have so long impeded the
commercial and social progress of
that portion of the Turkish empire
Palestine had until Mr.. Straus and
some American colleagues became
cognizant of tho situation been over
looked by the many medical mission
airy movements that have been start
ed by various countries in most 9th
er quarters of the globe. Now it is
proposed to do everything that money
and energy can accomplish to push a
program of enlightenment and relief
there and so good a beginning has
been made in the work of the exist
ing movement that Mr.. Straus has
been inspired to take for the time
being personal charge Of affairs.
Details of the work that is being
done in Palestine at the present time
and of plans for the future are told
by DR.. Aaron Aaronsohn, head of the
Jewish agricultural experiment sta
ton, which Is located near Jerusalem
and which Is conducted In conjunc-

NOT RAISING ENOUGH BEANS
Ports Of New York and New orIeans
Crowded With Imports OF Popular
Leauminous Plant.

Beans of one variety or another can
be grown In every state, yet the ports
OF New York and New Orleans are
crowded with imports Of beans from
all parts Of the world. Last year the
three states of Michigan, Wisconsin
and New York produced 10000 car
loads of beans, or 100000, 900 pounds.
It seems more people are eating
beans and that the demand for them
Is steadily growing. The canneries of
this country through advertising have
created a new demand for this old
time article of diet. Simple white
navy beans are the favorite in the
market and are quoted above $3.50
per bushel. Iowa is growing an In
creasing quantity.
Old land iz better than new for bean
culture. An inverted clover bed brings
full harvest. Bean seed needs warm
ground. The most successful bean
growers OF the northern states plant
about the middle of June. Experts
agree the blowing should be at least
six inches deep.

GROWING PECAN TREES
Performing Task Of AnnuIar,
Patch and Chip Budding.
Obvious That the Stock and Scion
Must Be Of Nearly Same Size
Buds Best Suited Are Those
In Axis of Leaves.
CBy c. A. REED.)


Annular budding consists merely in
transferring a ring of bark to which
Is attached a bud OF the desired va
riety from bud stick to the trunk or
branch Of another tree In place of a
similar ring of bark previously re-
moved. Specially designed tools have
been devised for the purpose of cut
ting the rings. Two ordinary propa-
eating knives having single blades
may be fastened together and made to
answer the purpose, although they
are less liable to make uniform Incl
sions.
Cut a ring of bark from the stock
with one of the tools, slit it with a
single-bladed knife, and lift from its
bed or "matrix," as 1t is technically
called. Discard this bark and from
the bud stick remove similar ring.
In the center of which is dormant
bud. The bark of the bud stick
should be slit on the side opposite the
bud. Immediately place this ring in
the space left by removing the bark
from the stock and wrap at once with
waxed cloth, taking care not to cover
the bud.
When the annular method is used

oratory in all Palestine. With this
as a basis the work has been ex-
tended from Jerusalem, where 1t
was started, to every part Of the
country. Now it is firmly estab-
lished and growing every day.
Money for it's continuance is fur
nished by Mr.. Straus and great in
terest is taken in the work by the
Americans who were responsible
for the establishment OF the agri-
cultural station.
The physician in charge of the
bureau is DIR. Brunn, a twenty
eight-year-old graduate of the Uni
versity of Berlin, who had done
work in the German colonies in
central Africa and had settled in
Jerusalem. He was recommended
to Mr.. Straus by DR.. Aaronsohn.
and in his hands was placed the
organization of the enterprise. The
equipment for the laboratory was
imported from Germany at consid-
cradle cost and is of the most mod
ern kind, suitable for chemical
analyses and examinations neces-
sary In the determination of the
nature of disease.
DIR. Brunn became acquainted
with Mr.. Straus when the latter
was taken i'll as he was about to
return to this country last spring.

philanthropist from Jaffa in Pales-
tine to Naples, reaching there just

must be of nearly the same size. If
the bud stick is slightly larger than
the stock. a portion Of the bark to
which the bud Is attached, may be
cut away, so that the two ends Of the
ring just meet around the stock. If
the bud stick should be smaller than
the stock, strip of bark on the latter
may be left in position to complete
the ring
In actual practice, rings which ex-
tend only partly around the stock are
commonly used. Such process. how
ever, is not true annular budding, be-
cause any bark which extends only
partly around the stock is merely q
patch. 1t is to this deviation from the
annular method of budding that the
term patch budding" has been ap-
piled.
A cut Is made in the bark of the
bud stick about half an inch in width
by three times as long, in the center
of which is the bud. The piece Of
bark SO outlined is removed from the
bud stick and laid over that of the
stock. Using this as pattern, Incl
sions are then made around it In the
bark of the stock The pattern Is
then removed, the section of bark
outlined in the stock is lifted. and the
bark from the bud stick Is put in its
place.
