Wood Alcohol.

Much has been written in recent
years regarding the almost criminal
ignorance of the general public in
the use of wood alcohol, and its in
furious effect not only on eyesight,
but on life itself. The Importance
of adequate protection of the public
in this regard is emphasized by a
recent tragedy in New York City.
Three women died and two were
made dangerously i'll from drinking
homemade wine at wedding feast.
The wine was made by the BRIDE
groom and was drunk by the two
hundred guests present. The recl-
pc for the beverage, the police say,
was sugar, water, alcohol and red
and green coloring matter. 1t was
first thought that the women were
suffering from ptomaine poison. but
the Coroner's physician pronounced
death to Re due to alcohol poison
ing, and the police declare the wine
was made with wood alcohol. This
dangerous poison often kills and
even when the life of the victim is
spared, he is generally blinded for
the rest of his life.

by stalking the plants and pruning
to a single vine. Trellises can be
used also by sinking posts in the
ground three feet apart and stretch
ing hay wire or telephone wire II
inches apart, across the posts, train
ing the plants to the wire. Another
method used by many growers is to
take pieces of two by four inch
scantling five or six feet long, sharp
ened at one end. and three inch
strips tackled one foot apart on
these. The posts are then driven
into the soil until the first strip,
which should be 20 inches from the
sharpened end, comes within IL
inches of the ground. The plants
are then trained to the strips.
Summary:
Care should be taken i'm the selec-
ton of soil for tomatoes. Never
plant tomatoes in the same place
year after year if blight, wilt or any
other disease has ever attacked the
plants.
The land should be broken to a
depth of at least six inches and thor
oughly pulverized. Fertilizer should
be thoroughly incorporated with the
soil ten days to two weeks before
planting. for quick results.
A supply of nitrate of soda should
be kept on hand for occasional top
dressing when needed. Sallow look
ing plants need nitrate of soda.
Sandy soils will need more potash
than clay soils and usually more nj
trogen.
Cow manure should be we'll rotted
or composted for best results. Stable
manure is too heating unless used III
moderation or thoroughly compost
ed with acid phosphate. A dust
mulch should be kept up during the
growing season. Sparks Earliana
is perhaps the best extra early to-
mato. Acme gives fine results.
Main crop varieties, Stone, Match
less, Majestic, Beauty, Prize Bell,
etc. For exhibition purposes, Buist's
New Monarch, Brimmer, Improved
Ponderosa, etc.
Sow a cover crop of crimson clo-
yer or .vetch in the tomato field to

ALLIES HAD STRONG DEFENsEs
IN VICINITY OF NAMIIR

antwerp, Belgium.-On the creat
plains of Belgium, almost since the
beginning OF recorded time the joust-
ing place OF warring tribes and ma
ions, the greatest and most appal-
ing battle of all wars is beir,
fought today, according 10 dispatches
between the German army of invas-
ion and the allied forces of Great
Britain and France.
The line of battle extends for a
length of twenty miles, the reports
say, from Namur to Chatleroi, along
the Sambre River. Here since the
days when the Roman legions swept
over the world mighty struggles
have been waged. Today the oppo.-
ing forces probably are using as
temporary breastworks and redoub bte
he crumbling citadels and strong
holds which the ancient Romans
threw up two thousand years age.
Behind the allies lies the most an
scient country in al of Europe, with
lis caves and grottoes, from which
come prehistoric relics of man 20 i

the allies had their base. and from
the citadel, which Caesar built, and
from where his legions threw boil

were shrilling the burst of shrapnel,
the cry of rapid fire guns and the
staccato Of musketry.
