American Professor Taught Its
Use to Armies Fighting

ADOPTED BY THE RED CROSS

sorbent Cotton as Dressing
Used for Centuries In Scot
land and ireland.

New Haven.-In an interview with
George r. Nichols, professor Of bot
any in the Sheffield Scientific school
Of Yale university, new facts were
brought out concerning the use of
moss in surgical dressings during the
war. Prof. Nichols was botanical nd
wiser for the American Red Cross and
to Introduce the use of sphagnum moss
into the American medical profession
for surgical purposes.
In Europe this moss has been used
for many years In surgery, but new
er before In this country. In Connect
cut alone there are twenty-five differ
ent kinds of sphagnum and on the
North American continent there are
ut least forty. OF these forty only
two or three are actually used.
Adopted by Red Cross.
During the war DR.. Nichols made
extensive studies of various regions
where sphagnum Is found and ex-
planned methods Of collecting and of
making It into dressings, and In
March, 1913, the American Red Cross
officially adopted this moss. Since that
date our Red Cross mas turned out
more than n half million sphagnum
dressings for the italian army and
something over 10000 a month for the
American war hospital. In Sertem-
Der, 1915. the British war Office for
mnlly accepted sphagnum moss dress
ings and year later England was
turning out 10000 a month and be-
fore the close Of the war almost q
million. The Canadian Red Gross
averaged 10000 Of these dressings
per month.

Meats in Storage"

McdlS III OlOldyc
Every working day of the year
$4,000. 900 pounds of meat are required
to supply home and export needs-and
only 10 per cent of this is exported.
These facts must be kept. in mind
when considering the u. S. Bureau of
Markets report that on June !, 1919,
there were 1,348.OOO.OOO pounds of
meats in cold storage. IF the meat in
storage was placed on the market It
would only be 20 days supply.
This meat is not arti6cially withheld
from trade channels to maintain or
advance prices.
Meats in storage consist Of
IS per cent (approximate) hams, bacon. ETC..
in process of curing. 1t takes 80 to 80
days in pickle or salt to- complete the
process.
10 per cent is frozen pork that is to be cured
later in the year.
per cent is lard This is only four-fifths
of pound per CAPITA and much of 1t will
have to 60 to supply European needs.
10 per cent is frozen beef and lamb, part of
which Is owned by the Government and
was intended chiefly for overseas ship
ment. If this were all diverted to domes-
tic trade channels, it would be only
W. lbs. per capita-a 3 days supply.
1909
From this 1t will be seen that meats
in storage" represent merely un-
finished goods in process of curing and
the working supply necessary to assure
the consumer steady flow of finished
product.
