Hay Fever and RagWeed.

VICTIMS of hay fever look upon this
season with no especial favor. It
is not quite yet the time Of year when
stheir sufferings become acute. but the
time draws near. and the Indications
point to an abundant crop of golden
rod and ragweed. 1t seems that most
persons who have hay fever charge
the goldenrod with being the author
Of thoir miseries. and it is this serious
accusation which perhaps has so long
withheld from the goldenrod the
honor Of being designated as the ma
tional flower.
Another and a newer school of stu
dents and philosophers now seek to
clear the. goldenrod of the charges
made against 1t and are laying the
blame for hay fever on the ragweed. a
plant which is much more common in
the neighborhood of Washington and
hoods, than the goldenrod. The pres-
ident of the Hay Fever Preventive As
sociation has said that the chief cause
of hay fever. and especially that vari-
ETY. of the malady known as fall
hay fever" is the pollen of two vari-

spikelike, flower of this weed Is vel
lowish in color and almost as light as
smoke or fine dust. 1t is so abundant
that during the stage of pollination
ones clothing will be stained yellow
by walking through patch of 1t, or
only brushing against a well devel-
While the pollen Of the ragweed is
extremely light and very easily wind
borne, the pollen of the goldenrod is
heavy and tenacious. 1t would seem
to be the opinion of experts on this
matter that hay fever victims are not
affected by the dust of the goldenrod
unless they place their nostrils close
to the flower. !.
The two guilty varieties Of ragweed
are well known around Washington.
The more common Of them Ia that
which Is called the wormwood rag
weed. because Of its resemblance to
common wormwood. 1t bears tiny
white flowers and its leaves are SO
finely and deeply cleft that from this
fact II is called "ragweed." 1t grows
anywhere and everywhere, though IL
prefers the sides of dusty road and
neglected fields. The other variety
Is called the great ragweed," or the
"giant ragweed." because II is usually
much larger than the first named
variety. Its leaves are three-lobed
and are not left, cut and slashed so
deeply as are those of the commoner
ragweed. Under very favorable con-
ditions this weed will grow to q
height of twelve feet. 1t bears in
significant greenish flowers and
prefers low moist ground.

the captain slung them over the side
In the sea, attached a good length of
hose to them, and set them going to
pump water at the rate of about $50
tons an hour each into the burning
hold. They soon put the fire out. and
the captain then lowered the pumps
into the hold and made them pump
out the water they had previously
pumped in.
Fire at sea, collision. weather and
other marine risks are all dealt with
by the admiralty salvage section just
as much as war risks like mining and
torpedoing. but it Is, of course, the war
risks that provide the bulk of the cases.
The work of the section falls really into
three parts.
There are, first of all, the rescue tugs.

in the number of ships saved. The
figures for this year are: January

May, 10; giving total of 147. Thus

Every salvage man will tell you
that the only thing certain about it is
that you never know what is going
to happen. A ship may be ashore in
the simplest position. with just one
big hole in her to be patched up. and
1t looks like job that will take a
few days. In the end you are per-

part in the work. The only thing the
salvage man has to do all the time Is
to be patient. That. perhaps. is why
they all look SO tired. Waiting Is a
weary business.

salvage men. 1t is very nice on fine

iority of cases the damage is in the

can limp along by herself after the
first aid ministrations of the salvage
section. One ship had the extraordi-
nary experience of being torpedoed a
second time while she was thus on
her way to repairing yard. and the

The problem of dealing with the

has been advanced very far toward
solution during the war by the gem
eral adoption of new British in

gineering. Described simply. 1t Is an

q pump could do. The writer saw one
in the hold Of wreck recently, COW

looking for all the world fike a bit of
wreckage itself. But 1t had just fin

with floating barrels. beams. tangled

over the side and had pumped few
tons of clean sea water through it.
self that pump was ready to start
work again anywhere.
X X
The secret of the pump is that 1t is
not watertight, which sounds absurd.
1t is. however. perfectly true that the
water can flow in and around the
whole of the works of the pump while
1t is at work, and, in fact. IL the wa
ter were not there the pump would
very quickly be overheated and
broken. No one has ever hitherto
succeeded in making electricity
work under water In this way, but the
uses of the discovery are plain even
to the layman.
A ship fitted with these pumps. for
example. ought never to sink. IL she
has enough of them on board, be-
cause they can be set to- work in the
flooded compartments and pump the
water out as fast as 1t can come in.
Damage to the engine room does not
affect the pumps. because they do not
rely for their current on the ships dy-
namos. but on their own portable
outfit.
Salvage experts tell one rather
amusing tale Of the versatility of the
pumps. A fire broke out in the hold
of a ship that was carrying a valu-
able and infammable cargo. Two
submersible pumps were on board and
