REALLY A SOUND INVESTMENT
sanatorium Where the tuberculosis
May Be Cured Is Worth Much
to Any State or City.

Dr. II. l.. Barnes, superintendent of
the Rhode Island State sanatorium,
has recently demonstrated by some
interesting studies of patients dis
charged as apparently cured from
that institution, that a sanatorium is
a sound investment for any state or
city. The gross earnings of ITO ex-
patients obtained In 1911 amounted to
$102,752, and those of 2l1 cases in
1912 TO $112,021, By applying the
same average earning to all ex-pa-
tients of the sanatorium living In 1911
and 1912, DR.. Barnes concludes that
their income in these two years was
1851 900 This sum is more than three
times the cost Of maintenance OF the
sanatorium including interest at 4 per
cent on the original investment and
depreciation charges. DR.. Barnes con.
cludes, however, while institutions
for the cure Of tuberculosis are good
investments, there is good reason for
thinking that institutions for the isola-
tion of far advanced cases would be
still better Investments"

tings in rows, three feet apart in the
row, aud have the rows from six to
eight feet apart, Remember that
blackberries multiply and form solid
row of canes in a comparatively short
time, hence do not plant too thickly,
Blackberries will grow In almost
any soil, but 1t must not be too dry
location, as they require a good deal
of water or the fruit will be dry and
pithy.
They seem to do better In mod.
erately good soil than in very rich
one as excessive feeding produces
stalks and leaves instead of fruit
The seed bed should be well pre-.
pared and leveled before putting in
the cuttings. In setting, be sure to
get the earth Arm about the cuttings,
and water occasionally during the
first month.
Blackberries will need some cutiva'
ton, particularly during the first
year. A good plan is to grow low
garden crops between the rows and
give them ordinary vegetable cultiva-
ton. This will make the ground yield
two crops for one cultivation.
Do not allow the berry rows to
spread more than two feet wide They
| will form a solid mass unless kept
down between the rows.
Prune in the fall or winter by re-
moving all OF the old stalks, cutting
them off at the ground. Cut back the
new wood a half with the pruning
shears. This causes the formation OF
fruit buds instead of wood and leaves,
There are a rather large number OF
good varieties to select from and your
scotsman will be glad to advise you
regarding which to plant. Early bear
ing varieties like Early Harvest and
Snyder do excellently In northern lat
itudes as we'll as In the south. FL
dorado is an old standby with small
fruit farmers and II Is not subject to
the parasitic disease known as black,
berry cane rust. This disease Is hard
to overcome and the best cure is to
cut out all infected canes as soon as
the rusty spots are noticed.
Blackberries are hardy and bear
every year. The fruit is delicious
either preserved or fresh, and it can
be made into excellent wine or cor
dial.
On a larger scale one can count on
selling at least an average of 5000
worth of berries yearly per acre, and
often as high as $500 to $500 worth
The expense of cultivation and pick
ing running about $50 per acre. This
offers an excellent proposition to the
suburbanite with a few acres.

"How to Feed Your Horse"

Over one-half of the diseases which
horses are subject to are caused by
wrong feeding. Correct feeding is
really such a simple matter that there
is no reason why every horse should
not be fed properly. Violation Of
one of a few simple rules spells death
to thousands of horses every year.
1t will pay every horse owner to learn
these rules by heart and put them
into practice. Here they are:
"Horse Feeding Rules"
/ DO not feed too much or too lit
tie, Feed just enough to hold the ami
mails weight while doing his work
nroperiy. For 1,0O0-pound horse on
mil work a normal ration is 10 pounds
of timothy or mixed hay and IL
mounds of oats day.
2. Feed three times a day and at
the same time each day. Regularity
keeps the horse from fretting and
aids digestion.
8. Do not feed grain or water when
too warm and tired Wait half an
