CAMEL GRASS FOR DRY SPOTS
 IN WEST

Washington, D. C., Jan. 11-Blue law advocates and prohibition en- forcement officers will be gratified to learn that there are sections of the United States so dry that nithing but camelgrass will grow there.
 Camelgrass, according to a depart ment of agriculture announcement to- day, is so called because it can go forty days and forty nights without moisture.
 A'large amount of camelgrass seed has just been imported by the de- partment and an effort will be made to turn the semi-barren areas of the great American desert into pasture land. Experiments with the new grass are now being made at the depart ment experimental farm in Arling- ton.
 Among other curious plants being experimented with at Arlington is a gourd two feet long, which contains approximately two gallons of succu- lent seeds, each about the size of an almond. The meat of the seed re- sembles that of the butternut and is said to be highly nutritious. In ad- dition to its possibilities as a sub stitute for nuts. the kernels are rich in oil.
 Other new specimens received at the department are samples of kaffir corn and sorghums suitable for semi arid regions, and some excellent Spe- cies of mango, a number of oil plants some dry land rice, and a large num- Der of grasses and grains. Another importation is the pistche nut from the Mediterranean region
 The specimens were brought to the United States by pr. H. L. Shantz, an agricultural explorer of this govern ment. Doctor Shantz ccompanied the Smithsonian African eXpe dition on it's recent tour of interior Africa from Cape Town to Cairo, penetrat- ing Orange Free State, the Transvaal,

 Berlin, Jan. 11.-An interesting and romantic discovery has been made in little half-lost village in the Harz mountains.
 In a house there> a picture in oils of an aristocratic old gentleman had been hanging for many years. It was only a little while ago that the owner thought that it might be of value, and his desire to know if this was the case led to the discovery that the picture was by Rembrandt.
 Several experts have examined the picture, and all say that there can be no doubt that it is by the famous Dutch master.

standardise charges. Usually, the charge
is very low, although in some dispersal
ries the registration fee is as high as
one dollar. Municipal hospitals charge
no fees whatsoever in their impatient
departments, but payments are accepted
In such hospitals for the maintenance
Of patients Ia the wards. The commit
tee believes that STANDARD charge for
treatment, as well as for medicine, dress
ings and electricity, among all the dis
peDsaries, would be expedient.
Primarily, Of course, dispensaries are
for the poor. In fact, the New York
law provides that no person who Is able
to pay private physician can be treated
In dtspenssry, and the dispensRry reg
istrars are instructed carefully to ques-
ton all applicants on this point In
vestigatiOn has shown that only a very
small percentage of people apply for
dispensary aid when they can afford to
consult a physician, but recently the
percentage has shown a perceptible rise.
The knowledge that the same specialists
who charge $40 and $40 per visit to
their private offices, are often found
strewtDg their pearls Of wisdom about
certain clinics, has led many persons to
pretend excessive poverty during the
p s. two years.
SLIDING SCALE
OF CHARGES.
A few clinics In New York, including
notably the Neurological Institute, are
open to the public upon sliding scale
Of charges. fixed in accordance with each
persons income, but the pay clinic is a
comparatively recent development here.
Usually it is opposed on the grounds that
it interferes with the business of private
practitioners, which the committee finds
regrettable, inasmuch as there Is an ur-
gent need for dispensary treatment among
the middle classes. Because he is not
rich enough, the man of moderate in
come cannot AFFORD private consultations
with high-priced specialists, and because
he is not poor enough he is denied their
aid in the clinics.
For with all their faults, as the public
health committee sees them, the dispen-
saries of the better type provide the poor
of our big cities with practically the
same medical aid that the rich receivs
from prominent specialists. Il they can
do so much under their present physical
and financial restrictions, how much more
could they do with more money and
equipment? And should they not be
open to all who cannot afford the services
Of specialists1
