Lime Treatment
I'm tuberculosis

In the May ~. 1912, issue Of the
journal OF the American Medical As
sOcintion appeared this statement
concerning calcium tlimeD medica-
tion Ina the treatment of pulmonary
tuberculosis tcOnsumptionDt
"Under the systematic, continued
and persistent regime of calcium
assimilntion, Van GiesOn has seen a
number or his patients Improve, un-
dcrgO an emulation or partial con-
sOiidntion I'm the lung, which then re-
living would appear 10 contribute
20 the wnliing on and closing of the
LESSONS. Hand Ia hand with this
course of events, the sputum clears
up of tubercie bnciili, which finally
disappear, and the patients are dis
charged with healed pulmonary tn
berculosis."
Ethical medical journals seldom
speak so positively about a remedial
agent, yet this testimony comedies
with that from many consumptives
who have secured like results
through the use of Eckman's Altera-
tive.
Since calcium Is a constituent of
this remedy for pulmonary tubercu-
losis and allied throat and bronchial
affections, its healing power may in
some measure be attributed to the
manner In which this element Is so
combined with other ingredients as
to be easily assimilated by the aver
age person and 1t does not irritate
the stomach.
Eckman's Alternative contains no
opiates narcotics or habit-forming
drugs so Ii Is safe to try. If your
druggist is out of IL, ask him to
order, or send direct to

WOOD ASHES FOR FERTILIZER.
"A Source of Potash to Which it May be
Profitable to Turn.

Conservation Of potash Is now the slo-
gan of fertility experts since the con-
tinuation of the war is likely to cut off
our import supply, says Hord's
Dairyman. 10 this end the department
of agriculture recommends that farm
els store and keep the dry wood ashes
as substitute. While one farmer may
not be able to secure large supply, it
is quite possible large lumber mills and
other plants using wood or sawdust for
fuel may find it profitable to store and
sell their ashes. Ashes contain lime and
phosphorus as well as potash, but they
must not be permitted to leach if good
results are expected.
Ashes from hard woods (deciduous
trees are richer in both phosphorur and
potash than those from pines and other
soft woods (conifers.I Ashes from oak,
elm, maple and hickory have more pot
osh than those from pine. The ashes of
twigs (faggots, for eXample) are worth
more for agricultural purposes than the
ashes of heart wood taken from the mid
die of an old tree In general, the small
er and younger the wood burned the
better the ashes. The ashes of coal do
not contain enough potash to make them
valuable in this connection.
Ordinary house ashes contain on the
average about eight or nine per cent Of
potash and two percent of phosphoric
acid. Investigators have considered that
there is enough potash and phosphoric
acid in a bushel of ashes to make it
worth 20 to rs cents Besides that, some
10 or 10 cents additional might be al
lowed for the "alkali power" Of the
ashes. This power is that which en-
ables ashes to rot weeds and to ferment
peat. OF course, prices vary with local
conditions.
If wood ashes ere purchased, the farm
err should assure himself that they have
neither been contaminated with coal
ashes nor adulterated with leached ash
es. These facts determined, the place OF
burning has no effect on the value Of
the ashes as fertilizer They are equal
ly satisfactory whether taken from
stove, a fireplace or a bonfire.

Rome, Jan. 10. Rescue work through
out the wilderness created by the earth
quake Of last Wednesday continues slow
ly and under great difficulties.
Each reported excavation serves to
verify earlier reports of the probable
casualties, though here and there, de-
spite the fact that five days have elapsed
since the catastrophe, living victims are
being released from their prisons OF
crumbling plaster and fallen timbers
Thousands of soldiers and civilians in
great numbers, including many members
of the nobility, gradually are systemat-
izing the relief work and are getting
food and shelter supplies over the OBJ
structed roads to stricken towns and vii
lagos.
The relief work now, however, over
shadows the rescue efforts.
The pope, according to the Osservatore
Romano, has sent aid to all the bishops
of the dioceses in the earthquake zone.
A fund of 20,000,000 lire (S4,000,000l
has been received by the pontif thus far.
About 1900 refugees, 1000 of them in
jured have reached Rome to date.
The property loss probably involved is
Indicated by one estimate that it will
exceed 300,00oO00 lire (S60O00000) No
exact figures are as yet available.

escaped with their lives are still in poig-

The greatest care is being exercised TO

effect.

END or THE EARTH.
The Latest Figuring Puts It Only Two
Million Years Away.

The Latest Figuring Puts It Only Two
Million Years Away.
Scientists tell US that life on the
earth began about 100000 years ago.
1t has generally been accepted that
life will last for 95.000.000 years.
Ninety-five million years is Il fairly
long time. None of US who are alive
today need worry about what will take
place 95.00o.0O0 years hence. Even the
most altruistic can scarcely be inspired
by love for an inconceivaby remote
posterity.
But the French savants are alto
gether disturbing. Here comes one. NJ.
verronet. who says that the earth Will
permanently freeze within the next
100000 years and that life will var.
ish. This is bringing the tragedy near
er home. We would glady accept the
older reckoning.
verronet places mankind OF today
about midway between the beginning
and the end. He computes that in the
future life will exist as long as II TINS
already existed. He specifies only one
forty eighth as long a life as those
who have studied in the past.
There is only one consolation TO he
derived from the yerronet reckoning.
AS far as the influence OF today is con-
cerned 100000 years is as good ~
In either event those who
are comfortably laboring today cannot
expect To be lovingly remembered
when the cataclysm Of ice makes the
earth a barren wilderness.
