TO FREE ARMY "NERvES"
New Branch of Military Inspection
Headed by Ten of Leading Psyche.
Pathologsts Of Country.

American soldiers who go to France
must be not only physically fit, but
also nervously and mentally fit.
A new branch of military inspection,
headed by ten Of the leading psyche
pathologists Of the country, has been
established to safeguard the army
against the weak-mind and the imhe-
cile, to weed out the men whose nerV-
Gus systems are broken down, to make
sure that the fighting forces at the
front are not handicapped by "the man
with nerves"
Examinations to be given by the
neurologists will not only eliminate the
unfit, but will prevent the wOuld-be
slackers from feigning nervousness or
mental sickness.
Five clinics have been established
where doctors may prepare for this
service, the clinics being located as
follows: The Psychopathic hospital,
Boston; the Phipps Psychiatric clinic,
Baltimore; the Michigan Psychopathlc
hospital, Ann Arbor; the Neurological
institute, New York., and the Psychia-
trio institute, Wards island, New York.

THE VALUABLE LEAF MOLD
ev w. r. GILBERT.

This term Is applied to leaves when
they are so thoroughly decayed as to
readily separate into small particles
Leaf mold Is valuable manure in
many instances, especially on heavy
soils, and one of the most important
ingredients for the soil used in the
successful cultivation of the majority
of plants.
1t may be used freely, particularly
with the tender seedlings and cuttings
of soft wooded objects, provided it be
of good quality, and free from injuri-
Gus fungoid growths.
The production of roots in young
plants of this description is induced
and accelerated with more certainty
by planting in this material than by
the use of any other.
The quality of leaf mold depends
very materially upon the sort of leaves
composing it and in the manner OF
preparation adopted
1t is found from experience that the
best leaves are those collected from a
wood or other place where the prin-
cipal trees are beach and bark, and
where their leaves fall over large
area every year, and naturally decay
slowly, until those beneath the surface
become changed into Il light mold.
In many instances such leaf mold
cannot be obtained on account of the
necessary removal of the leaves to pre-
serve tidiness; but on the other hand
it's Importance and additional value
over that artificially prepared is not
sufficiently recognized in many places
where quantities might be obtained In
the woods.
Leaf mold of good quality may be
used to the extent of about One-third
in compOsts for azaleas, greenhouse
rhododendrons, and many fine-roOted
hard-woOded plants of this description.
1t may also with advantage be in
cOrpOrated along with peat in the prep
aration of beds for nearly all plants
of the heath family which are grown
out of doors.
Further, nothing is better for i'm
proving the flower beds, or for adding
to soil of any description for placing
around trees, shrubs or plants whose
roots it is desired to encourage.
If leaves have to be gathered into
a heap for leaf mold, u place should
be selected where they may be spread
rather thinly, so as to avoid any ex-
cessive heating by fermentation.
The whole should be turned over oc-
casionally so as to expose all parts in
turn to the infuence of the weather
and air.
Where the air cannot reach leaves
