thing. 1t is only one of many. All
of the garden products that can be
used in a tiny space are utilized, and
around the edges, to work in a little
art along with utility, there are flow
ers.
The Rockefeller cabbage patch is
located in the yard of the world-fa-
nous Rockefeller institute at Sixty
sixth street and the East river, New
York city. 1t is in this remarkable
institution that the wise men of sci
ence try germs on monkeys and dogs
so that they can learn how to save
the lives of babies and grownups. Many
of the greatest discoveries of science
have been made in the lag building.
But when the master of the millions
came along he saw something beside
the germs and the mysterious re-
searches of science in the vicinity. 1t
occurred to him that the germs had
nothing to do with the yard about the
place, and that no amount of bacilli
could interfere with putting the open
ground to some use.
So he ordered that the women and
children in the congested, poor neigh
borhood be given a chance to raise
vegetables on the unused yard. The or
der brought about n transformation.
Now on any day one may see the
woman with the hoe at work on the
garden that fringes the skirts of
great learning. She is not bowed by
the weight of centuries like Edward
Markhams famous "Man With the
Hoe" She is happy in the chance
to make better table for her little
ones at the expense of a man whose
millions do not prevent him from see
ing little things clearly.
L wonder if my readers are using
their available space for garden pur-
poses with as much wisdom as the
very poor of New York are doing in
the cabbage patch of the Oil King?

MORE GAS BEING USED
Output of Natural Product Breaks
Record in 1915.
Quantity Consumed Exceeds by NearI,
37,ooo,ooo,ooo Cubic Feet, the
Previous High Mark.

The United States continues to in
crease It's production of natural gas, in
spite of the exhaustion of fields in some
parts of the country. Statistics pre-
pared by Uncle Sam show that more
natural gas was produced and con-
sumed in the United States than in
any other year.
The quantity used was 62S, ,57S, ,S42,-
600 cubic feet, which exceeds by near
ly 00O,O00,000 cubic feet, or per
cent, the former record, established in
1914.
The average price of this gas at the
point of consumption was 1912 cents
thousand cubic feet, and it's total mar
ket value was $1O1, ,312,3 ,3S1, a gain of
O22 cent in unit price and of 1885,
S57, or 7.6 per cent, in total value COM
pared with the figures for 1914.
Credit for the increased production
of natural gas belongs, in the order
given, to Ohio, Oklahoma, West Vir-
ginia, Pennsylvania, Kansas and Cali
fornia, which together produced near
ly 10000 100000 cubic feet more in 1915
than in 1914. Significant increases, i'm
portant locally but unimportant as af-
fecting the production of the entire
country, were credited to Arkansas,
Wyoming and Missouri.
The principal benefciaries of the
Increased production of natural gas
were, in the order named, Pennsyl-
vania, Oklahoma, Ohio, California and
Kansas, which together consumed near
ly 3S,000,000,o00 cubic feet more in
1915 than in 1914.
OF the total production of natural
gas in 1915, it is estimated that 217,-
2O2,943,OO0 cubic feet, or 35 per cent,
was distributed to 2,195,0S1 domestic
consumers at an average price of 1892
cents thousand cubic feet, and that
the remaining 65 per cent was distrib-
uted to 1S,35S industrial consumers at
an average price of 9.7 cents a thou
sand. Compared with the correspond
ing statistics for 1914 these figures in
dicate, with regard to the gas supplied
to domestic consumers, gains of per
cent in quantity, 6 per cent in the num-
Der of consumers, and OBS cent in av-
erage price; with regard to the gas
supplied to Industrial consumers, gains
of 6 per cent in quantity, 3 per cent
in the number of consumers, and OH
cent in average price. The percentage
of the total quantity consumed for
domestic purposes was slightly greater
in 1915 than in 1914.

FINDS LACK OF LINGUISTS
Uncle Sam Has Difficulty Obtaining
Young Men for the Bureau of For
eign and Domestic Commerce.

Uncle Sam is experiencing difficulty
in finding young Americans who are
familiar enough with foreign Ian
guages to be of use to the bureau of
foreign and domestic commerce, which
is now engaged in making investiga-
tions all over the world with a view
to aiding in the extension of American
trade in foreign countries. 1t is said
that very few applicants to the bureau
have practical knowledge of French,
fewer still of Spanish and that it is
not on record that any native-born
American in captivity has good un-
derstanding of Russian.
1t is pointed out that French is not
only the language of diplomacy and
the official speech of great republic
and its colonial dominions, but the
storehOuse of the only modern litera-
ture which is a fair rival to that Of
the English-speaking peoples; that
Spanish is the commercial key to half
the area of our own western conti-
nent, and that Russian introduces it's
learner to another great literature,
and to an undeveloped empire of 1885,
100000 as well.

DEVELOP GREAT PAPER
INDUSTRY IN PHILIPPINES
Growing Scarcity of Materials Leads
to Investigation of Possible
Sources In Islands.

The development of great paper
industry in the Philippine islands may
be one result of the growing scarcity
of materials formerly used in the man
ufacture of paper. Prompted by this
scarcity, the bureau of science of the
Philippine islands has been making
some investigations, and Uncle Sans
commercial representative at Manila
declares that the facts collected are
regarded as evidence that an industry
of great economic value could be de-
veloped.
For several years, it is said, the bu-
reau has been investigating the suit
ability of bamboo, cogon grass, abaca
and various palm fbers for paper pulp.
Other minor sources of pulp from Phil
ippine plants are bowstring hemp, CO.
coanut coir, the leaf stalks of the nipa
palm, parts Of the betel-nut palm, the
puri palm and waste bejuco. Bamboo
fiber, it is said, is eminently fitted for
book paper and for certain grades of
writing and lithographic papers, ell
ther alone or when blended with rag
or sulphite wood pulp.

KEEPING PUBLIC WELL
Uncle Sans Health Service
Adopts New Methods.
Substitute Popular Bulletins on Dis

Four years ago Uncle Sans public
health service was an establishment
which manufactured scientific treaties
on disease which nobody but physi-
clans read.
Today it is an instrument for the
dissemination of human happiness.
1t all happened because a man had
an idea. what" said DIR. w. G.
Rucker, assistant surgeon general in
charge of domestic quarantine matters,
"is the use of a public health service
unless people know what we are do
ing?"
Nobody had a satisfactory answer.
So Surgeon General Rupert Blue and
the new secretary of the treasury Nc
Adoo, under whom the public health
service is placed for administrative
purposes, agreed with Rucker that it

UNCLE SAM BUYS TRACTORS
Obtains Large Number of Machines
Similar to Those Converted Into
"Land Dreadnaughts" by British.

Uncle Sam has purchased, for the
use of his army, a large number of
caterpillar tractors very similar to
those converted into the '1and dread
naughts" by the British in northern
France.
The same Peoria, ILL.,, firm which
supplied the British with the founaa=
dons for the armored fighting monsters
has contracted to build the huge trac-
tors for this government. The trac-
tors will weigh between 1900 and H.
600 pounds. This is considerably be-
low the weight of the tractors fur
nished for Great Britain. Their price
will be $4,775 each. 1t will cost $1,000
additional for encasing them in armor.
Colonel Rice of the ordnance depart
ment explained that while these trac-
tors could easily be turned into land
dreadnaughts similar to the British
tanks" it is unlikely this will be done.
The tractors bought for the United
States army are to be used to haul big
guns. They will be armored, and prob
ably will carry rapid firing rifles, but
more for defense than offense. They
are much similar to the ordinary farm
powerfully constructed.
1t is understood that numerous ex-
periments with the tractors, said to
have brought such terrible destruction
in the European war zone, have al
ready been conducted by the United
States army.

PAPER PRODUCTION GROWING
Uncle Sans Reports Show Gain of
24.1 Per Cent in Output From
1909 to 1914.

The United States produced 1892, ,147,-
00O worth of paper and wood pulp in
1914, according to Uncle Sans figures
as given in census report just made
public. This is an increase of "a per
cent over the value of the production
in 1909, which was $267, ,657 900.
To produce this amount of paper in
1914 required a capital of S534, ,625, 900,
an increase of 30.6 per cent over the
capital employed in the industry in
1909.
The humber of persons employed in
the industry in 1914 was 1923, to
whom $66, 900 was paid in salaries
and wages.

CABBAGES AND A KING
BY ELIZABETH VAN BENTHuYsEN

6y EllZRBE n VAN BEN fUISEN.
When the Walrus, in the time-hon-
ored verse, called attention to the fact
that the time had come to speak of
cabbages and kings, the beast did not
have any idea that the time would
come when there would be any actual
relationship between the two. Now
kings have come to know the value of
the cabbage while the value of the
king has taken somewhat of slump
in the opposite direction.
This story deals with an Oil King
and cabbage crop. Midas, with his
fund of gold; Croesus, long mentioned
as a marvel of money, and the other
owners of large kingly chests were
but ordinary pil1ers compared to John
ID. Rockefeller. He has in one vault
in the basement of the produce ex-
change in New York more hidden
wealth than all of the old kings put
together.
Yet he has lively interest in rails
ing cabbages.
His interest in this direction is valu-
able to all of the persons in the coun-
try who have garden plots because it
is a lesson in the economy of space,
and tip from the richest man in the
world as to the value of using every
spare spot for raising something from
the soil.
What he sees in New York is equally
possible on the most remote hillside in
America, and it is for this reason
that l am showing you a picture of
the Oil Kings cabbage patch and tell
ing you how the man with the greatest
store of wealth wisely refuses to let
a chance to raise even a tiny crop be
wasted.
When 1 say cabbages, I do not mean
that the patch is confined to this one

Have a Juiube?
"Have you any jujubes to-

"Have you any jujubes to-
day?"
This may be the housewives
query to the corner grocery man
in the near future as a result of
discovery made by one of Un-
Gle Sans plant experts on a re-
cent expedition into China.
This expert found the jujube
tree which bears heavy crop of
a brownish fruit that, when
fresh, is declared to be deli
cious, and when dried, offers a
confection very similar in taste
to the Persian date.
The section in which it is pro-
ductive in China is semi-arid
belt where winter temperatures
do not go much below zero Fab
renheit. This indicates that it
would be of particular value to
Texas, California, New Mexico,
Arizona, southern Utah, and per-
haps even farther north. AL
ready, several thousand seed
lings have been grown at the
plant introduction garden at
Chico, CAL. from the specimens
sent to this country, and some
of these have borne desirable
fruit, which confirms the expert
menters in their belief that this
tree may contribute a new fruit
industry to the sections indi-
Gated.

WILL TRAVEL IN AIRSHIPS
New Corporation Proposes to Establish
Service Between Berlin and
Constantinople.

Uncle Sans vice consul at Carlsbad,
Austria, Robert S. Townsend, has re-
ported the formation of an interna-
tional airship corporation in Berlin
which, as result of the great develop
ment of aerial travel during the war,
proposes to establish an aerial post
service between Berlin and Constanti-
nople. If this proves a success it is
proposed - establish passenger line.
Its plan is to have the route extend
from Berlin to Carlsbad, continuing
to Vienna via Budweis, from there to
Budapest, and thence on to CONSTANT
nople over Sofia. Between these larger
cities are to be numerous landing sta
tlons, the cities chosen for landings to
subscribe for shares. In this way the
corporation hopes to obtain the neces-
sary capital to finance the project. A
representative of the corporation has
already visited Carlsbad and has
talked with the city council as to the
probability of obtaining an old race
course as landing station, and as to
the chance of the city raising the nee
essary amount of money us it's share
of the capital. The scheme also in
cludes the building of modern hotel
at the landing station there.
1t is believed that with the advanced
experience with heavier-than-air ma
chimes during the present war there
is no reason why such an enterprise
should not be practicable, as well as
possible, should the necessary capital
be obtained for its foundation.

might be good idea to take the pub
lie into its confidence on public health
matters.
Some of the results are remarkable.
In 1912 the service published and sent
out 100000 scientific publications. In
1915 the service sent out more than
100000 publications, both scientific
and popular-but mainly popular-to
individuals all over the United States.
And 1916 will break the record again.
A year ago Doctor Fuckers division
began sending out a Health News"
bulletin to n few newspapers that
wanted it. Today 5000 daily and
weekly newspapers get this bulletin
When the outbreak of infantile paraly-
sis occurred in New York the public
health service wrote up a bulletin tell
ing what the public could do to help
prevent the spread of the malady. The
bureau had $4,000 requests for this lit
tie bulletin.
Nobody in the United States with a
two-cent postage stamp need be ignor-
ant of how flies breed, how they carry
disease, how to screen house and
how to prevent the breeding of flies.
The service still writes scientific
bulletins. Specialists work in it's lab
oratories and statisticians figure out
mortality and morbidity rates. Highly
technical articles are prepared for
physicians and health officials all over
the country.
But everything 1t does now is re-
written in popular form for the lay
man. The service had adopted the slo-
gan that disease prevention means get
ting rid of the causes, and getting rid
of causes requires education of the
public to know the causes.
Four years ago scarcely anybody in
the country knew there was such a
thing as public health service. To-
day 1t is one of the best-known and
most useful branches of the govern
ment establishment. And the year
1915 showed the lowest mortality rate
the United States has ever had, 1876
per 1000 population, the year 1914
holding the previous low record. 1873

MONEY CAN'T MAKE A GARDEN
BY ELIZABETH VAN BENrHuYsEN

BY ELIZABETH VAN BENTHUYSEN
If one had all of the money in the
world and no artistic or practical ideas
to go with it, he could not produce
a garden worth while. 1 am struck
with this fact while looking at some of
the new landscape work at the rich es-
tates that make the Eastern coast
fairyland.
The accompanying illustration will
show case in point. Here is a garden
where money enough has been spent
to buy a farm. Yet the figures are
stiff and grouped with about as much
art as the man used who first put fig
ures in multiplication table. Regu-
lar, stiff and awkward, the costly bits
of work are placed just like SO many
pawns ON chessboard-
