bench of domestic difficulties because he can

stand the daily bombardment OF marriages
gone wrong, OF love that had died. and Of TO-

give up so easily. II he will cast his glance
around a little outside the court room, he will

out well, homes that are lighted by the lamp
OF love and affection. children growing up un-

Nitrogen from the Air.


The United States government is again be-
ing urged to undertake or to encourage the
fixation OF free nitrogen by electrolyss or other
available process. Reasons for this are many,
the of inter being OF much importance
and the present sources of supply for the United
States being limited and uncertain. AS basis
for fertilizer. and as factor in vital industrial
operations, fixed nitrogen has come to be an
absolute necessity Methods for restoring it
to the soil through the cultivation OF certain
crops. such alfalfa, have proved successful
but these will not afford inter for the uses of
manufacture
The Norwegans have met with great sue
cess in their immense government plant, where
IN $1,000 horsepower Is available. They have
developed a new method OF separating the
gases that make up the atmosphere. The air
~ lquified by the we'll known compression proc
ess. and the nitrogen. which vaporizes at
lower temperature than the oxygen, is easily re-
covered The liquid oxygen remaining after
the escape OF the nitrogen is retained to assist
in the further process of liquefying the air.
The nitrogen is fixed by combining 1t with car
bon calcium, the product of an electric furnace,
and is thus made available for commercial and
industrial uses
This process is said to be much cheaper and
more productive than the electrolytic method
now used at Niagara Falls and elsewhere in this
country. The proposals now being made to con-
gress are worthy OF the closest consideration.

OMAHA. March Ito the Editor OF
The Bee: Having been associated with
the late Clyde A. BaUmgardner covering
q period Of more than twenty-five years
rs an employee Of The Bee. 1 feel tlat a
tribute TO his memory by fellow work
man would not be amiss.
In all my experience with men never
met another person who was so rea ly to
accommodate his fellows. 1t made no
difference with him that he already was
swamped with enough work 20 keep two
men busy ordinarily. he somehow man
aged TO find time TO assume new obliga-
lions for others. and always with that
same evenness of temper that character
lied him among his acquaintance.
Clyde A Baumgardner was true to his
fellow man. His one leading fault
was neglect of his own personal welfare
in aiding others. His capacity for long
hours of labor in the work shop. the
lodge room and the union labor hall. as
well as along other lines. was marvellous.
I have yet to learn of the person whom
Clyde Raumgardner wronged. His friend >
were legion, and his removal from their
circles will not easily be forgotten.
Realizing fully that no human being
has as yet met the requirements of
others. have no hesitancy In saying that
the world has benefited by the presence
OF Mr.. Baumgardner, and that It is to
persons of his character that we are in
debted for much of the good that we
get out Of life.

And when our hearts are weary, and
when our eyes are blind,
With tears of silent sorrowing for loves

Deep do we drink upon its brink, until
our fingers meet.
And all the past is gone at last. And,
oh, the draft is sweet!
The heights are high, love o. mine,

Yet shall we seek the utmost peak again

scnrIet Fever, scnrletina, Grip.

SHERIDAN. Wyo., March 9.-To the
Editor of The Bee Have just read
Scarlet Fever or Grip" signed Medic"
and will again state my wish that every
correspondent to The Bees Letter Box
would sign his or her name. Medic
makes some statements that are humor-
Gus. He says: "If the disease was scar
let fever it could be controlled by quar-
antine, but 1t is an influenza commonly
called the grip Cor la grippe) which some
have light and others severe. running
into pneumonia. Influenza is one of the
most highly contagious diseases" Mr..
Medic" is wrong in all of this. He
should first learn the meaning of the
names influenza and Ia grippe. and where
they came from. before he attempts to
teach the public. Neither of the names
mean anything in any way regarding the
nature of the disease.
Influenza was n name given the affec-
ton by the Italians as far back as the
fifth century, A. ID. They considered It
due to astral influences and simply used
the single word influence. which in their
language is influenza. The French word
grippe has a meaning which covers a
fantastic. caprlcious or impetuous seiz-
ure. 1t may mean to grip or seize with
claws as does a wild beast. or to seize
crowd of people. 1t is probably for
the latter reason applied to epidemic ca
tarrhal fever. Bonnet says: you per-
haps have heard this bad epidemic, cold
spoken of, to which the French, who
name everything. have given the name
OF grippe, which is in fact. very signifi-
cant"
In the work of Hippocrates, written
nearly 400 years before Christ. is a very
correct description of this epidemic, even
to the weather most suitable for its propa-
cation. Another authority states il ORR
ginated in 1910. in the island of Nellie
now called Malta, from which is said to
have sprung the order OF knights Tenn
plar. known as the Knights of Malta.
Another epidemic of la grippe was in
l557-SO-9l-97, 1910. seven epidemics during
the zoos, eight of them during the 1905
before the winter of 1SS9-9O, and a very
severe epidemic of it struck Omaha when
I was practicing there in the winter of
lSsl-92 l at that time made a careful
study of the disease and its history and
was asked TO write an article for the
World-Herald and 1t appeared in the
SohudiS loo1, issue. any per-
son who says influenza. or la grippe, is
contagious does not know what he is
talking about
Medic asks the question: why do
the doctors use the word scale in scar
let fever Cor scarIetina, both are the
same)." The term scarlet fever is the
most commonly used, while scarletina is
the scientific term and the disease is d.
lad fV,f.
anginosa and scarletlna malignans, ac-
cording to its mildness, part most af-
fected, or its severity. The world scale"
has nothing to do with the case. and IL
Medic had studied the real nature of
scarletina he would not have asked such
question, and the same with la grippe
and influenza.
