MILLIONAIRE PIONEER FARMER.

The American Magazine has an
unusual group of sketches and pic
lures in its Interesting People" de-
partmcnt for January. Among these
is an article aOout Roger Derby, the
son OF well-to-lo Massachusetts
family. who has gone to North Caro-
lima where lie is doing practical
agricultural work OF great value to
the state. Mr.. Derby is a brother Of
DR.. Richard Derby who is Colonel
Rooscvclts son-in-law. The follow
ing extract from the article will give
an idea of the adventurous and pi-
Onecr spirit of this young farmer:
After graduating from college Ro-
ger Derby went on an expedition In

chartered new vessel and started
gold: and came home after a few
months of buccancering with no

passed two years in solemn state be-

Derby is big. husky outdoor ath-

as Il telegraph pole. and he acts
quickly when he makes up his mind.
In the undcyclopcd lands of North

typhoid patients proper treatment be-
cause OF lack Of help and lack of sup

vided for fever patients. They are
not obtainable. Often one nurse will
care for scores of patients both day
and night. She must sleep OCCASION

fever sufferers, even If she had the

What chance have they to recover

London.-The throwing of 100000
wounded French soldiers and thous-
into northern France has led to Il
terrible condition there. Mrs. Harry
Floyd, wife OF widely known En-
glish artist, who has returned here
temporarily from service in French
hospitals declares. SusDension of in
dustries and the difficulty in obtain
ing supplies from abroad has made
the problem of sustaining life u SER
ious one, she says.
All Kinds Hospital Supplies Needed.
Hotels and other buildings have
been taken by the government for
hospitals in all the towns and vii
lagos of northern Franco and adc-
quate furniture has been provided for
most of these" said Mrs. Floyd But
the crying need is surgical instru-
ments, anaesthetics, antiseptics and
all sorts of hospital supplies and
clothing for invalids brought from
the battlefield wearing only the tat
tiers of uniforms.
10000 Wounded Arrive in One Day.
AT Limoges. which is not large
place, 10000 wounded and 10000
refugees arrived in a single day in
October. In many of the government
hospitals 1t has been niece ssary to put
the beds so close together there is not
even passagcway bctw en- them and
the patients must be moved each 9TH
er. At Ameins. Calais and other
towns near the fightir:, line condi-
lions are much the same.
Antiseptics and Bandages Exhausted.
II was ut Houlgate for many
weeks assisting there in hospital
which accommodated 40 patients.
We exhausted our ant'septics. At
times we were without ether. even
saw nurses rewashing old dressings
because there were no new bandagcs
to use on wounds All the anti
tetanic serum was exhausted and it
is not possible to obtain more i'll

exhausted. Great Britain has forbid
den the expectation of this serum as
