Making these crops into hay reduces
the danger of poisoning, according to
these specialists, as only traces of the
acid are found. Putting the crops in
the silo does not lessen their content
Of acid, but as these crops are usually
in a mature state before ensiling,
there is probably little danger in feed
ing the silage, it is stated.
It is advised that caution be used
in pasturing on Sudan. In some cases
it is claimed that cattle were pas
tured on that crop with no i'll effects,
even though it showed a high content
of prusic acid, while at other times
death has followed quickly.
Precautions that are recommended
are: "Do not turn on pasture when the

Both Tawes and Dennis escaped with
minor cuts and bruises. Tawes is
charged with driving in a negligent

356 for the second quarter of 1887
when 1O,839 cases were reported from
Baltimore City and 5,517 from the
Counties. The decrease in the cur
rent year was due largely to decreases
in measles of which 1,039 cases were
reported from the State during the
second quarter, in comparison with s.
800 cases during the corresponding
period of 1887, and to decreases in
whooping cough and diphtheria.
The venereal diseases syphilis with

cases: influenza, with. SO, the pneu-
monia with 6S6 cases and tuberculosis
with 800 cases, were charged with Sc
per cent of the sickness from mott
fable diseases reported during the sec

1.O39 cases of measples and scarlet
fever, of which 772 cases were report
ed added another IL per cent. The

MARYLAND BIRTHS
EXCEED DEATHS
IN THREE MONTHS
1865 More Births Than Deaths,
$500 Births And 5O55
Deaths

In a report prepared by the Bureau
of Vital Statistics of the State De.
partment of Health shows that there
were over 1,765 more births thar
deaths reported in the State during
April, May, and June of this year
There were $500 births reported and
5,055 deaths, in comparison with g.
TIT births and 5,312 deaths during
the second quarter of 1887.
The distribution for the second quar-
ter of 1888 was as follows: Births:
Baltimore City, 3,07O; the counties
$3.50. Death: 2,644 in Baltimore City
and 2,411 in the counties. Consider
ed in relation to population, there
II deaths which were offset by 15
births in each thousand of the total
population.
More than half of the deaths-3,-
O08-or 60 per cent of the total num-
ber recorded, were due to what are
known as the degenerative diseases
of middle life and old age. Heart di-
sease led the group with 1918 deaths;
cancer came next with 581; nephritis
was third with $40 deaths. There
were 424 deaths from cerebral hemor-
rhage and apoplexy and 115 from
diabetes.
The pneumonia and tuberculosis
were responsible for 638 deaths-pneu
monia for 295 and tuberculosis for
343-or 13 per cent of the total.
One death in every twenty-5 per-
cent of the total-was due to acci-
dents of some sort. Motor vehicle
accidents were responsible for 76
deaths. Deaths from the causes men
toned above degenerative diseases,
the pneumonias, tuberculosis, and ac-
cidents- constituted over three
fourths of the deaths from all causes
and at all ages in the State.
The record for the second quarter
of the year prepared by the Bureau
of Communicable Disease shows that
10,931 case Of notifiable disease were
reported to the Department during

Shelves may be either q Joy for

housewife. It Is a matter Of con-
struction.
If book shelf is located in q dark
corner Of a room, or If 1t is too high
above the floor, or II it is too deep,
1t fails to be convenience. The
same holds true for closet and
kitchen shelves.
Book shelves to be efficient should
be a little over 6 inches deep. The
average book is about S inches deep,
and any extra room on the shelf is
valueless. Kitchen shelves designed
to hold condiments, cans or boxes
that are used frequently should be
no deeper than actually necessary.
Plate shelves should have a mini
mum depth Of II inches. This per-
mits double sacks of plates.

Certainly the simplest way to pre-
vent fires would be to have every
thing fireproof, wouldn't it? But
you say, What about wooden furni-
ture, draperies. rugs and other ma
terials about the house that burn
like tinder. You can't have every
thing made of steel and concrete
just to avoid having fires"
After many years of experimental
ton, during which untold homes
have gone up in smoke, there has
been invented flreprooflng material
which will resist flame very effec-
lively and reduce home fire hazards
to minimum.
All necessary to make the home
furnishings flame resistant is to
paint the woodwork with this new
liquid, and follow it up with Slight
ly different material made especially
for fabrics of various sorts. Thus,
by eliminating the spots where fire
can get small foothold you can
enjoy the comfortable feeling of a
safe, flreproof homestead.
When you plan to have a paint
job done to the interior or exterior
of your home next time include a
couple of coats of flame-resisting
to go underneath the regular decor
ative coats. 1t might very easily
be a life-saver for both your home
and your family.
Many times you probably have
wished for a servant who would be
ready and willing to turn things on
and off without having to remind
him.
A key-wound time clock can now
take the place of that imaginary
servant, and any appliances which
require plugging into a wall outlet
can be started and stopped without
trouble
The little timer resembles regu-
lar square alarm clock and has two
wires one of which runs to the
electric supply, the other to the
appliance to be controlled. Two
