ously taking from the air its life
giving elements and pouring into 1t
their own waste products.
If carbonic acid. which we all giva
out, happened to be, a distinct color,
we should see the gas emerging from
mouths and noses.
But as it is we notice nothing. When
we realize that about one-third of our
lifetime is supposed to be passed in
sleep, the idea of fresh air is worth
considering.
From hour to hour the lungs and
skin give off their poisonous gases;
they are breathed and re-absorbed ID
they then poison us. Breathing bad
air reduces all the processes and les
sens vitality and lowers resistance
Poor ventilation is the chief cause
of tuberculosis and is more fatal than
almost all other causes put together
There is not a sleeping room in the
land which contains sufficient air to
last one sleeper through one entire
night.
The advantage of large sleeping
rooms Is not that they contain much
air. but that they permit constant
changes of air-rapid enough TO make
good our poisoning Without o
draught.
If we need fresh air when sleeping
we need it even more when with 9TH
er people. Like ourselves. gas and
lamps and candles need oxygen TO
burn well; hence the very lights
which afford SO much pleasure are
plainly source of danger.
Each light is hungry intruder, de-
vouring with all its might the scanty
amount of oxygen provided for the
guests. That is what is meant when
we say that gas vitiates the air.
In dancing rooms there should be an
extra amount of outside air present:
for, when dancing. the extra effort
makse US consume greater amount
of oxygen and trebles the amount OF
carbonic acid thrown off.
Amusements taken in the open air
are best.

ADVICE FOR PEACH GROVER.
Federsl Bu.o..n Tolls Hirl About Lo-
cation Of Orchard, Soil, Etc.

Federal BuIo.in Tolls Hin, About Lo
cation OF Orchard, Soil, Etc.
In ut least thirtyniue of our forty
eight states the.c are peach interests
of commercial Importance. according
to a recent United States farmers
bulletin, No G3l, of the department on
growing peaches This bulletin is the
first OF three on the general subject Of
peach growing. which will treat OF
fundamental orchard operations 1t
gives much valuable information TO
the fruit grower The questions Of
site, propagation. planting, tillage and
soil fertility are treated in the first
bulletin
In locating peach as well as any
other orchard other advantages must
he considered besides the natural ones
Of climate and soil. II an orchard Is
too remote from a shipping station, too
far away from suitable market. or
located where ice for refrigerator cars
cannot be conveniently supplied, it
may not be possible to grow peaches
there probably.
Peaches may do well on a wide
range of soil types, including even
some of the moderately heavy clay
loans and clays. But, whatever the
type, n soil must he thoroughly well
drained TO he suitable for peaches.
They will not succeed on poorly drain
ed soils Ii follows that the heavy
clay types which are so hard and i'm
pervious that water does not percolate
through them readily are 10 be avoid
ed as n rule. Moreover. soil should
be moderately fertile One very rich
in nitrogen is not to he desired as a
general rule, since II is likely to in
duce an excessive growth of foliage.
On the other hand. the impression
which is somewhat common that a
poor. unfertilc soil Is good enough
for peaches is erroneous
In districts in which alkali soils oc-
cur sites should be selected with a
view 10 avoiding them. While the
peach tree can be grown where there
is limited amount of alSali salts,
they cause disaster il present In large
quantities. 1t is safer therefore to
avoid them as far as possible.
As general proposition n site that
is elevated considerably above the sur
rounding area is to be preferred for a
peach orchard Relative elevation Is
generally of greater Importance than
actual elevation above sea level.
