laundry apparatus, the additional gift
Of Mr.. D. G. Reid, for which Richmond
people are deeply grateful as this was
an absolute necessity for carrying out
more economically the required sani-
tary conditions of the bedding towels
and table linen. The hospital can
hardly realize how they managed with
out it.
Besides this, the Ladies Aid society
has been untiring in working for the
upkeep of the equipment of the hos
pital, so as to add to it's working
efficiency, and has not allowed the
kitchen nor the nursing to be hamper
ed by scanty or imperfect materials
required in the daily hospital work.
This has been done by hard work and
personal sacrifice on the part of the
untiring body of women; lacking an
adequate endowment this work must
continue, and to make it possible for
them to secure the necessary mater
ials with which to work, the ladies
call the attention of ever citizen in
Richmond to TAG DAY, October 3rd
and request a liberal donation when
ever possible, but in any case, they
hope that everybody will give some
thing for charity to help care for it's
poor and needy.

supporting it's hospitals to the best of
it's ability. Little Petoskey, the last

Terrapin Farming.
indianapolis News)

The epicurean delicacy, the diamond
back terrapin, has been raised arti-
ficially for years at the Isle of Hope,
near Savannah, Ga. Like the salmon.
once terrapin were so plentiful along
the shores of the Chesapeake as to be
a nuisance. Now they are SO scarce
as to be worth s36 dozen. By acct
dent A. M Barbee discovered a means
of incubation for them. The difficulty
is not to hatch the Eggs, but to get
them. They are always buried in the
sand with no distinguishing marks and
left for the sun to hatch. But when
confined in pen the animals ate the
eggs or else these were spoiled by the
water which several times week must
be flooded into the pens. One day Mr..
Barbee accidentally left pile of sand
in one OF the pens, which the receding
waters had made. Next morning he
found this hillock covered with eggs,
ii being the instinct of the female to
lay above tide level So now the pens
are heaped with piles during June.
July and August the laying season.
The egg is about the size of pigeon
egg and eight or ten are laid at time
in the hillock Daily these are uncov-
cred and the eggs taken to incubators
which Mr. Barbee devised. He matches
about So per cent. In the four years OF
his work he has Matched more than ten
thousand terrapin. The incubators are
simple boxes in which the eggs are
laid in layers, each distinct from its
neighbor, with two inches of sand be-
tween the layers. Once week warm
sand is sprinkled on. In ninety days
the terrapin come out. In few weeks
they are permitted to swim. During the
summer they are fed on shrimp, fish
and vegetables at which times the pens
are flushed with sea water four feet
deep the animals feeding best in the
water Fresh water is flooded three
times a week to prevent disease. They
are kept in compartments in shed.
For shipments they are packed in bar
rels like potatoes.

Green onerstina Rooms.

White has become a color so preva-
lent from kitchens to hospitals that a
departure from white to green in surg
ical operating rooms is remarkable.
The binding white of such rooms has
been found to be terrorizing to the pa
tient But there is more than psyche
logical effect sought in the change. The
white daZzles the surgeons eyes and
causes loss of time at critical mo-
ments. SO DR.. Sherman, of st. Luke
hospital of St. Louis. has introduced
spinach green" says the Technical
World. He chose green as the COM
Elementary color OF the red of the
blood. The floors and wainscot are
spinach green and the ceiling is bright
buff. Between the two is white thing.
The object was to initiate nature in
her color scheme. This combination
reproduees to satisfactory degree
open air conditions. The operator
looking up from the present dark
floors and weinscots does net eneount-
er glare of light under this new color
scheme and find his eyes useless for u
moment as he looks back at the blood
red wound The experiment has prov
ed to be successful and is another
suggestion of the efficiency of Ameri-
can surgery which stands SO high in
the world.
