WATER FROM ARTEsIAN WELL
Why Method of Bringing 1t to Sur
face Is Only Successful in Ger
tain Localities.

Artesan wells are possible only in
certain localities. When there are
pervious strata lying between i'm
pervious beds the water percolating
through will be imprisoned; lying up
on the lowest, and rising to some
point in the highest, when previous
stratum brings it to the surface and
it escapes in the form of spring. If,
however, Il shaft can be sunk to the
lowest point, the water of the whole
basin will pass upward for escape
and will rise to IL level corresponding
to the greatest height to which the
imprisoned strata reaches. The wells
were named from one at Artois,
France. which was the first sunk with
full knowledge of the principle in
yoIved. The Chinese from time i'm
nemorial have used these wells, and
hey have also been used for CEN
uries in the neighborhood of Vienna.
The artesian well at Grenoble, near
Paris, throws water to height of 81
feet above the surface at the rate of
more than 500 gallons a minute

STRONG APPEAL MADE

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture)
Unlike most other infectious dis
cases, tuberculosis has an insdiOus
way of working under cover. and
oftentimes animals of the most
healthy appearance are found to re-
act to the tuberculin test, say veter-
narians Of the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture. No cattle owner
can afford TO live in doubt as to
whether his animals are affected, they
add. This point is brought out clear
ly in twO-colOred poster published
by the department, on which is shown
two herds of dairy cattle. From all
appearances the animals of both herds
are healthy, but as matter of fact
those of one herd are afflicted with
tuberculosis.
The poster also shows two children

point is brought ont that tuberculOus

animals may transmit the disease to
children who drink the milk produced.
The poster is n strong appeal for
healthy cattle, and it is to be used eX-
tensively in the tuberculosis eradica-
tion campaign being carried on by the
department.
Careful experiments in practical
work have shown that tuberculosis
cannot be detected to any great extent
among animals by physical eXamina-
tions. The most reliable method is the
tuberculin test applied by a trained
operator. Tuberculin while regarded
as the most accurate diagnostic
agency known to science. is safe only
in the hands of trained and skillful
operator who is acquainted with its
limitations and with the symptoms ii
produces in the animals to which it is
applied, the department veterinarians

CARE FOR LATE VEGETABLES
To Store Late Products Nothing More
Is Required Than Use of
Existing Facilities.

The storing of late vegetables Is
often profitable for those who grow
them in sufficient quantities for mar
keting. giving the grower the direct
benefit of the winter price. To care
for the surplus vegetables in many
eases requires nothing more than the
use of existing facilities in the form
of Il storage room In the basement
of dwelling or under an outbuilding
or to build an outdoor cellar Of wood
or masonry If permanent facilities
are not available. late root crops can
be kept in outdoor pits or banks, re-
ouiring no cash outlay except for Ia

Now, what have you gained by that

the ground and putting it in better

can be planted earlier in the spring
than if it had been left bare or plant

to n great deal. 1t amounts. frequent

tables on your table two or three
weeks ahead of your neighbor who
did not break his garden till spring.
Such crops ms smooth peas, beGs. let
tuce and onion sets can be planted as
early in the spring as the ground can
be worked. If plowing or spading the
ground has been deferred till spring,
a delay of as much MS three weeks is
likely to occur after these crops should
have been planted-whfch means, re-

Tokio, Aug. 5-The appointment of Charles Beecher Warren as Ambassa- dor to Japan has been received with reserved pleasure here thus far. While both the American community and the Japanese official circles are glad that the question of who will be the American envoy to Tokio has at last been settled it is impossible for most of the leaders in both divisions of those interested to comment very profuse1y on the new appointee.
 To a wide circle of friends in Tokio the last Ambassador, MT. Morris, was a most satisfactory representative of the United States. He was active in every line of Americanism here; he was a staunch supporter of the Amer ican School, was active in the Ameri- can Association and was in other ways identified with the interests of all Americans in the Far East. Thus such members of the American community as MT. Robert F. Moss, president of the American Association, and other officers of this organization are hop ing that MT. Warren will prove as in terested in such affairs was MT. Morris. Advance reports on the new Ambassador to Japan" said MT. Moss the day after the news had been re- ceivd, indicate that Tokio may ex- pect a first-rate Ambassador at the Embassy soon. Most of the Americans have talked to have. expressed them selves as well pleased with the ap- pofntment."
 Viscount Kentaro Kaneko, presi- dent of the America-Japan Society, a member of the Privy Council, is par ticularly pleased with the appoint

AMERICAN NURSES DEDICATE NEW INSTITUTION TO FRANCE
 AT TOUCHING CEREMONIAL

Washington, Aug. 5-CBy MaiD- Of all the permanent memorials of the World War that Americans have left in France none gives more prom ise of growing in importance than the new Florence Nightingale Training School for Nurses established at Bag atelle, in the scenic Bordeaux sub urb of Talence. It is dedicated to the memory of the 284 American nurses who gave their lives in the war and was given by the nurses of America, through small individual subscrip- tionS.
 The school was founded by Dr. Anna Hamilton, who on June 5 last when the cornerstone was laid, sat and modest1y acknowledged the show quietly in the shade of a great elm CT of felicitations from Americans French men and women of promi- hence on the fruits of her twenty years struggle to raise the standard of nursing in France.
 Seldom has there been witnessed in France a Franco-American ceremony more touching. The scene was set in the park of Bagatelle. an estate given to the nurses by Mademoiselle Eliz- great fifty-year- old tree and flanking the cornerstone was a stand, draped in American and French flags erect ed by Major Frederick w. Patterson, of Baltimore, head of the Graves Registration Services in the Bordeaux area.
 Rear Admiral Thomas P. Magruder, Am erican Naval Attache in France, who came from Paris. and the blue Jackets of the U. s. Destroyer Childs, ordered from Cherbourg especially for the occasion, represented the American Navy. A handful of the sailors remained aboard their boat to show it off" to thousands of eager French people who filed on board. At Bagate1ls Admiral Magruder was in charge of the dedicatory ceremo- nies. Speaking in such good French that it proved a very pleasant surprise to the French people, he thanked the French nurses for their ministra tions to the American sailors who were in the nearby hospital during the war.

Kendall Elmer son, of Worcester, Mass, and many other Americans and Frenchmen- Miss Helen Scott Hay of Savannah, H., laid the cornerstone.

The reports reaching Tokio for few weeks previous to the appoint ment indicated that President Hard ing might possibly select a man who was dif1nite1y against Japan, and it was therefore relief when WarrenS name reached the ears of some of the leading Japanese Viscount Kaneko was in charge of Japan's interests at the time of the Behring Sea Fisheries Dispute, and for. that reason he was able to learn something of AIpbassa- dor Warren, who at that time was a member of the Joint High Commis- sion.
 Press Never Heard of Him.
 ttAs Vice-Minister of Agriculture at that time I was connected also with the Behring Sea Fisheries settlement, and the fairness with which this case was handled was pleasing to Japan" said Viscount Kaneko, when seen by representative of the International News Service. My impression is that MT. Warren accomplished much a member of the Joint High Commis- sion at that time. I believe Japan generally will regard him as the right sort of man for the place."
 The Chugai Shogyo, a commercial paper, is the only one thus far to comment on the new Ambassador.
