Rheumatic
Fever

In the treatment OF Rheumatic Fever
many physicians employ purgatives, but
DR.. NJ. z. Greed thinks that mild laxative IS
better. When the patient is bilious he gives
calomel in small doses, one-ffth Of a grain
every hour until grain has been taken.
Then after four hours he gives the patient
a half ounce OF citrate of magnesia, with
syrup of lemon to disguise the taste, or he
keeps the bowels open with the mild laxa-
tive "Actoids." The diet should be light
and all animal food should be excluded as
far as possible from the dietary. For the
pain and fever he has found nothing equal
to Anti Kamnia Tablets, giving two tablets
every 2 to hours as required. These
tablets may be obtained from all druggists
in any quantity desired. Ask for AK
Tablets. Unexcelled for Headaches, Neu-
ralgias, and All Pain.

KEEP ANIMALS FROM DRIFTING
National Foresters Build Fences to
confine Cattle to Certain Specl-
fled Districts.

Many miles of drift" fences have
been built by the government in re-
cent years for controlling the move
ment Of stock, grazed under permits
on the national forest land5.
These fences do not serve to inclose
areas, but are simply intended to
prevent the animals from going in GER
tain directions, or drifting" to use
a cattleman's expression. In many
cases they are used to restrict the
animals to certain areas during the
winter as well as to prevent grazing
on lands where poisonous plants are
found
In one case five miles of drift fence
was built to prevent a city water sup
ply from contamination by forest-range
cattle. In one forest, four and one
half mile fence was built to keep cat
tie on one range.-Popular Mechanics

ton These changes are recorded by
/ the pressure gauges.
As the season advances the condi'
| tions change; the temperature be

warns up. The roots now absorb
more rapidly and the upper portion of

equilibrium as related to the lower

which retards the development of buds

Damp ground takes longer to warm

/ the later runs in such locations are at
tributed to the more gradual changes
in temperature of the soil surround
ing the roots.
The material from which the sugar
is made is elaborated by the leaves
during the growing season, from the
Carbonic acid Of the air with the aid
of sunlight, and is stored up in the
form of starch. Hence the character
OF the season as to the amount of sun
shine, the vigor of the tree, its leaf
| Development and exposure to the light,
are important factors in determining
the yield of sugar the following spring.
The sap in January and February is
quite different from that in March and
April In the latter months much of
the stored-up starch is changed into
sugar. and the sap in the outer con-
Quoting tissues of the tree becomes an
almost pure dilute solution Of sugar.
This is coincident with the sugaring
season, and is the effort Of the tree to
feed the growing parts.
There has been much speculation as
to the weakening OF the tree by tap
ping, which is a sort Of bleeding opera
ton and takes away a portion Of the
stored-up nourishment Of the tree.
The average sugar maple is estimated
to carry approximately 35 pounds of
sugar in its sap. Three pounds Of
sugar to tree is looked upon as
good yield, and this would represent
less than a tenth Of the total sugar in
the tree, an amount which the investi-
cations Indicate could easily be spared
under ordinary circumstances.
The run of sap was found to vary
considerably with different trees, as
did also it's sugar content. The aver
age sugar content in five different
orchards varied from 2.0S to 3.44 per
cent. These variations are due in
part to differences in location, ex-
posure, age and size of the trees, but
when separate trees are considered
notable instances Of individual differ
ences are found One tree, which be-
came known as the Sweet tree" gave
a good flow of sap varying in three
seasons from nearly to over per
cent in sugar. Another tree tapped on
all four sides produced 12 pounds Of
sugar in a single season.
AS to the location and manner of
tapping the trees, the experiments
were extensive and explicit. The re-

Soldier Poet Wins paIntIes.

Sergt Max Schwertfeger, attached
to one OF the regiments in Flanders,
says tho Frankfort correspondence Of
the Associated Press, offers remark
able evidence of the fact that the
power of poetry is not on the wane
When, recently, he broke into verse In
an appeal for dainties to vary the mo-
notony Of military fare, the poem,
which was published in local paper,
prompted such a number of contribu'
tions of packages and boxes Of delica-
lessen that Sergeant Schwertfeger
was fairly swamped with them. BY
the time of the kaiser's birthday. Jan
uary 26, he had received 1,027 bundles,
containing so many varied eatables
that he was able to share them with
about a thousand members Of his bat
talon.
When, however, the stream showed
no signs of stopping he was obliged to
appeal once again, this time asking
that the dainties be sent to other sol
diers on other battle fronts.

suits we're slightly In favor OF tap
ping on the south side of the tree
over any other points of the compass,
although the advantage was chiefly
noticeable on bright days. There was
little difference between the south and
east sides, but the west side gave the
least flow. On cloudy days, whan
all sides Of the tree warm up equally
fast, the flow was about the same all
around the tree. II is clear that a
tree should not be tapped on a side
shaded by other trees. notably ever
green's.
The larger the hole bored for the
spout, the more sap and sugar were
obtained, but owning to the draining
of the tree and the difficulty Of heal
ing over where large holes are used, II
is recommended to tap with a three
eighths to five-eighths inch bit. The
largest yields Of sap and sugar we're
invariably derived from the tissues
nearest the bark, the yield decreasing
as the depth OF the hole increased
and in a general way the sugar con-
tent likewise. For larger trees a
depth OF three inches was found sufii-
cient and for smaller second-growth
trees an inch and half or two inch
tappings are recommended, according
to the size Of the tree. More and bet
ter quality of sap was obtained by
tapping about four feet high than at
the ground level or higher on the
tree. The spouts high up (14 feeD
/ ceased running first Tap holes placed
one above another, as is frequently
done, were found to affect each other,
/ even though they we're several feet
apart. The larger part of the sap and
nearly two-thirds of the sugar were
obtained in the forenoons run.
1t has been suggested that the tree
| should be tapped on the side where
there are the most branches, when
there is a marked difference in this
| respect, on the theory that the sugar
is elaborated on the side where the
leaves are. Three years experiments
on this point, with trees that had ap-
proximately nine-tenths Of their
branches on one side, showed that in
| such trees the sugar is distributed
I throughout the trees, and could be
tapped out as well from one side as
another
These facts regarding the flow OF
maple sap, brought out for the first
time in this study, have a practical
bearing in the management of sugar
orchards. The variation observed in
the amount of sugar in the sap Of diff
ferent orchards points out why it costs
some sugar makers more to make
pound OF sugar than it does others.
The location of the trees and ex'
posure to the light are important
items. Trees we'll exposed to sun.
light give more and richer sap than
those which are crowded and shaded,
for their leaf expansion is usually
greater, and they have more chance to
get the bright sunlight. Hence a tree
of inferior production might frequent
ly be sacrificed with benefit to those
around it. The typical tree for a large
run of rich sap is described as one
having a short cylindrical trunk, and
a large branching system beginning
about ten feet from the ground, which
provides for abundant foliage and
large leaf area.
This piece Of work indicates anew
the value of systematic experiment
and investigation, even in the most
commonplace branches of farm prac.
tice.
