they differ from small boys In one i'm

should remain on the plants two days
before rinsing.
The advice on bathing house plants
is from H. W. Becker Of the New York
Botanic Garden. Bathing replaces the
effects of rain in cleansing plant pores
of dirt. The soapy water should not
be permitted to run into the soil, for
it burns roots. During the wash the
plants should be kept ont Of sunlight
for two days.

DEATHS DUE TO AUTO
ACCIDENTS INCREASING
One-fOurth of Entire Number
Are Children Under Fifteen

Calling attention to the increasing
number of deaths from automobile
accidents, and to the fact that nearly
| one-fourth occur among children un-
der fifteen, DR.. John Collision, Chief
! of the Bureau of Vital Statistics of
the State Department of Health, ur-
ges parents to take special precau-
lions to safeguard their children
from accidents of this sort during the
vacation period, because it is during
this season that the majority of such
accidents in this age group, occur.
From January to June of this
year" DR.. Collision said, "156 deaths
from automobile accidents occurred in
Maryland, in comparison with 1876
during the same period last year
Our death rate from automobile &C
cidents-that is the number of deaths
to each hundred thousand of the pop
ulation-has increased from less than
one per hundred thousand in 1910 to
21.5 in 1928. Some idea of the grad
ual increase can be seen from the
rates for the last five years-16.2 out
of every hundred thousand of the pop
ulation in 1924; 17.4 in 1925; 1877 in
1926; POT in 1927, and 215 in 1923.
The total number of deaths from
automobile accidents in 1923 was 331.
This was more than four times as
many as the total from typhoid fever,
for which the rate per hundred thous-
and was So. AS a matter Of fact,
the deaths from automobile accidents
now rank about twelfth in the leading
causes of deaths in the State.
''Analysis of our records show
that the greater proportion of deaths
from automobile accidents occur dur
ing the second six months of the year
This is due largely to the fact that
there is more and more travel of
that sort during the vacation season
and during the pleasant weather of
the early fall.
''In checking up our records, we
also find that nearly one-fourth of
the total deaths from motor vehicle
accidents have occurred among chill
dren under fifteen and that the larger
proportion of these have happened
during the vacation season. Because
of the menace of the open road to
young children at all seasons, but
particularly at this time of the year
when the children are more likely to
be out Of doors, special precautions
should be taken by parents to pro-
tect them from this danger"
