TWENTY-THREE VS.. THIRTY
EIGHT

There is no question as TO the Jus
tice and advisability OF workmen' =
compensation law. And while this is
true. figures presented by DR. Win
tnrop Talbot before the annual con
vention OF the National Efficiency
society indicate that there is an even
larger field for Improvement in an
other direction. The statistics o. DIR.
Talbot show that OF the deaths among
industrial workers - per cent are
caused by disease. Half of these. he
asserts, are prevePtable.
Twenty-three yer cent. then, OF in
dustrial deaths are due TO accident
and over thirty-eight per cent from
preventable disease. Figuring that
some fatal accidents are preventable
would make the difference still
greater. With the workmen's com.
pensation law we will compensate
the victims family in a financial way.
which is we'll and good But why
not carry our humane efforts a step
further?
Unhygienic methods and lack %
sanitary conditions in factories cause
thirty eight deaths. while accidents
are causing twcnty-three. The rela-
t!ves OF a man killed in an accident
get large sum OF money. which Is
. all right. But the relatives OF a man
who dies as the result Of unsanitary
conditions get nothing and usually
have big expense during the sick
ness besides the chances OF other
, members OF the family contracting
the disease
Would II not be good idea 10 have
some better laws regulating factory
conditions?

None is following the work of Ma
ranville with keener interest these
days than the veteran Tom Dowd, for
mer manager of the New Bedford club
In the New England league. Dowd
has followed Maranville's work close
ly and believes that the time is not
far distant when Maranville will be
generally recognized as one of the
greatest fielding players in the game.
To group OF baseball fans Dowd
was telling of Maranyille's start in
baseball. "The fellow was playing on
the high school team at Springfield
when first heard of him, back in
1910, and the boy was but seventeen
years old then. | took a trip up to
see him and he looked to me as If he
had promise of developing into play

during the school schedule of 1910 and

Sassafras Leaves and Fruit.

one of the first volatile oils distilled
in America. The range of the tree is
from Florida, where it was originally
discovered to Virginia and Pennsyl-
vania, and even as far north as New
York and the New England states. 1t
Is quite abundant in the south-central
states, especially Kentucky. Tennessee
and Arkansas. The production of this
oil attained commercial significance
early in the last century, and it is dis
titled extensively at present in Ken
lucky, Tennessee, Pennsylvania, Mary
land and Virginia, also to a less ex-
tent in Ohio, Indiana and New York.
Although the distillation of this
very fragrant oil, which is obtained
principally from the bark of the root
of the tree, has assumed a strong COM
mercial aspect, the tree has not been
grown, strictly speaking. for oil pur-
poses.
Sassafras bark is used for its tonic
properties. 1t forms a popular do
nestle Spring medicine" and in the
spring market women and men dis
play their bundles Of sassafras on their
stands, or sell them along the streets
of cities to be made into a tea, by
many people regarded as useful
remedy.
The distillation of the oil OF sweet
birch is a further example Of wild
aromatic plant furnishing oil in suf-
f1cient quantity to supply the trade.
Sweet birch occurs largely from the
New England states and north-cen-
trail states to Georgia, Florida and
Alabama. The distillation of this oil

To James more than any other play

Braves are in the race this season.
He was one of those unfeatured young
sters that major league critics over

him now. Manager Stallings can
thank John McGraw for James. Amos
Rusle had tipped him off to McGraw.
but the leader of the Giants figured
his staff complete, so handed the tip
over to Boston, which made a pur-
chase from Seattle. taking James

CULTURE OF THE BlUEBERRY
Nothing Else-Berries Stand
Shipment Well.
CBy R, G. wEATHERsToNE)

(By r. G. WEATHERSTONE)
Blueberries thrive in acid soils and
there is large amount of naturally
acids lands in the east United States
that are fit for nothing else on which
blueberries could be raised profitably
There are two methods of propa.
eating the BURBERRY plant. The first,
which is suited to upland soils, Is to
set the plants in trenches or separate
holes in well-rotted peat about a foot
deep and mulch the surface well with
leaves or clean sand.
Give plenty OF room for the roots
The soil should afford good drainage
as the ideal condition of the peat
about the roots is one of continued
moisture during the growing season.
The second method Of field culture
is to set the plants in peat bog after
it has been drained, turfed and deeply
mulched with sand just as for cram
berry culture, except that no provision
need be made for rapid flooding of the
bog for winter. The ground water OF
the bog might be kept little lower
than is usual with cranberries.
There is great difference between
the genuine BURBERRY and it's counter
feit-the huckleberry. The BURBERRY
is plump. large and its seeds are so
small as to be almost unnoticed. The
huckleberry's seed is surrounded with
a bony covering like a minute peat
pit which crackles between the teeth.
The blueberries stand shipment
we'll and if growers will take pains to
insist that their product be not con.
fused with huckleberries and sold at
the same price they will be better off.

PLANTS OF FRAGRANCE
Those Used for Volatile Oils
Largely Scattered.
Sassafras Bark Also Quite Popular az
Domestic "Sprine Medicine"-
Sweet Birch Found In Many
Of Eastern States.
(By +. RABAK

Possibly the number Of wild aro-
matte plants which are used IN the
manufacture of volatile oils exceeds
that of those which are at present cul-
tivated. The extent of the production
OF the oils is much less, chiefly be-
cause Of the more or less scattered
condition OF these plants, and there
fore the difficulty Of gathering them
In large quantities. Usually these
wild aromatic plants are distributed
over wide areas confused largely with
other volatile or nonvolatile species,
thus causing the rapid collection OF
the plants to be seriously hindered.
A specific example of an important
uncultivated plant which yields a
volatile oil Of considerable value is
the sassafras tree. Sassafras oil was

TO SERVE SUMMER DRINKS
Dainty Sets Of Iced Tea and Other

In Shops.

The shopkeepers are not slow to
realize that well-appointed services for
iced tea will tempt the housekeeper
who wishes to serve it correctly. Even
II she does not indulge in whole set,
she longs for at least set of glasses
or a set of iced tea spoons.
The set contains, first of all. an iced
teapot, which is shaped like a tall.
narrow teapot, and is made of glass,
with silver mountings. A lemon dish.
a sugar dish and bucket for cropped

dates back nearly as far as that of the
oil OF sassafras and has developed
until the industry at present is of con-
siderable significance, The oil pro-
duced from sweet birch Is almost
identical, for all practical uses, with
that OF the oil OF wintergreen, al.
though the plants are entirely unre-
lated.
The bark of the trunk and the small
branches OF the sweet birch are used
for distillation. being previously cut
into small pieces and allowed TO
macerate with water before introduc-
ton into the still. A yield OF three
tenths to three-ffths OF one per cent.
OF oil is obtained, Owing to the strict
enforcement OF the pure food and
drug act a more active demand for
the natural oils OF sweet birch and
wintergreen has resulted. and the
price OF these products thereby ma.
tsrially advanced. Birch bark will
bring from one to three cents per
pound.

WASTE TURNED INTO PROFIT
Skim Milk When Fed Alone Of Little
Value, But Given With Corn In
creases Hogs Weight

Sweet milk, skim milk, SOUR skim
milk and buttermilk are of practically
equal value when fed in the proper
ton of two and one-half to three
pounds of milk to one pound of shelled
corn. A bushel Of shell corn when
fed with water produced an average
of 11.9 pounds of pork, but when fed
with 1913 pounds of milk the average
weight of pork produced in the same
length of time was III pounds. While
this is no indication of the value Of
milk when fed alone, it seems to show
that when fed with shelled corn, 1853
pounds of skim milk of little or no
market value on the average farm,
produced SIS pounds of pork worth
about 40 cents at last years prices.
In many factories the secret Of sue.
cess has been found in the discovery
and application of some method Of
turning former waste into a profitable
by.product. The same principles can
well be applied to the farm and farm.
