State Is Urged to
Rush Building of
Insane Asylums
Charities Aid Association
Says l3 Hospitals, With
Capacity of 28,997, Now
Are Caring for 35, ,462

Prompt carrying out of the states
construction programme and addition
al appropriations for its expansion are
urged in the annual report of the State
Charities Aid Association to the State
Hospital Commission in order to re-
lieve congestion in the insane asylums.
The report, made public yesterday,
shows that the thirteen state hospitals
with n normal capacity of 28997 act
ually were housing 35,462 patients, in
Guiding about 100 insane soldiers, at
the end Of the fiscal year.
"The overcrowding has been around
the 5000 mark for number of years"
says the report. "The excess was act
ually relieved by only 443 beds in the
last fiscal year, the overcrowding on
the same date a year previous having
been 6,908."
The state now is committed to the
following new building projects The
erection of new state hospital at
Creedmoor, on the outskirts of Brook
lyn; erection of state hospital at
Marcy, near Utica; establishment of a
psychopath!c hospital in New York
City, and the establishment of another
state hospital in the metropolitan dis
trict to take the place of the aban-
doned Mohansic institution. The over
crOwdinG in the metropolitan district
is especially serious, amounting to
about half of the overcrowding in the
entire state.
Following is table showing the
overcrowding by hospitals:

Flowers Blooming ON Order

A little more than fifteen years ago
certain Mr.. Thomas Rockford. Of
BroXbourne, England, made some OBJ
servations on the effects Of frost upon
plant growth. He noticed that. in the
early months of the year, when the
temperature falls below the frecz;no
point, the development of all vegeta-
ton is suspended. No injury results
to the plants from this, and, in sea-
sons when the natural rest is pro-
longed the vgor of growth is greater
IMAM normal A series of experiments
was undertaken, and it was discovered
Ihat tne normal Towering time of GER
'aln plants could be retarded for quite
long while Thus lily of f-the-vallev
roolS are put INTO a refrigerator in
'he autumn and kept there until the
succeeding fall. They pass right over
they are brought into a warm atmos-
phere, they come into full BEAUTY
Whatever the season may be. The ra
pldity of growth is amazing after this
treatment, and often the grower is
gathering his crops of blooms within
three weeks of the time of planting.
strangely enough, this lily culture IS
earned on in the dark. or, at any rate,
IN closely shaded house. The ab,
sence Of illumination encourages
long stem growth and does not in anv
way hinder the DEVELOPMENT of the
fragrant blooms. This process of re-
tardation has been carried out with
great success in the case Of lilacs.
