The Ked Crom In China. 'A phase of the trouble in China Trhieh may prove to be of emit importance is the fact that the Government of that country is not a party to the Geneva Red Cross Convention, by which the signatory Powers bound themselves in time of war to respect the lied Cross, and to treat surgeons as non-combatants. It is thought possible that this fact may deter the War Deuartment from permitting any of the women nurses who are being sent to the Far East from landing in China for duty there.?Medical Record.

He has made quite a study of the subject, and says that in a handful of cobwebs he found sixtyone different disease germs.

[ Yet the price remains high, and there are ^mes nearly every winter when the demand cannot be supplied except at rates wliiclvif the grower could get tlu'in would make this the most profitable crop grown. In such cases it is the fact that parsnips are held back by the difficulty of getting them to market that makes them scarce, rather thLantyiv real deficiency in the supply IF-ft could be brought to the consumer., The parsnip is so hardy that b&t to of ten left in the ground all winter.

The plant 6tArts to grow so soon as the ground thaws, and after the first green sprout appears it very soon becomes unfit to eat. For this reason most growers put the parsnips in underground pits, covering them well with earth and ' throwing some water on this to preI vent tuem from drying out. From these pits they must be removed early in spring an i placed in close proxhn! Jty to ice so that they will always be kept at near the freezing temperature. Drying Fruit In tlie Home.

If they are poor and thin they will not show much desire for mating, and sometimes it is impossible to bring them around with any kind of success. Ewes intended for early breeding should not be made to live out in the hot sun without any shelter from it i 1 the middle of the day except such as they can find on the shady side of a fence. Provide them with sufficient shade, good pasture and plenty of clean water Through the summer, and then before you want to breed then feed them liberally on oats. This will often help to bring them around and give tue desired results. Always have a thoroughbred buck at the head of the flock, but the flock itself should consist of grades. / As they have better constitutions they will rustle oetter :;nd prove more profitable. li is the early flocks of lambs that pay the best. and early breeding f is quite necessary tor success. The ewes must l?c fed liberally and intelligently until the lambs are born and ' ready for market. We cannot afford ' to bo niggardly in this respect. The r little lambs relish roots in the fall and r winter, and it pays to have a stock of these 0*1 hand. On the whole the roots eeein to uo them good, and they ' require less of more expensive food. The roots also helu to keep the ewes In good condition, but otherwise can not say they arc of any particulavalue. Forclnj: the Ecir Snpply. .Forcing the hens to lay eggs is sim ply assisting nature to perform it work in the highest degree. We sup ply them with tbe needed elements tt make eggs. All tbe so-called tonic: and stimulants do little or no good un less food of the riclit kind is supplied The tonics may increase the appetite, and the stimulants may force the system to more active work, but the gaii? is only temporary, and in the end o reaction is more than likely to follow. If the right foods are given the tonics and stimulants may,- on occasions, do good, but as a rule a healthy hen needs neither. It is only when she is run down an njt in good condition that 1 she requires either a touic or stimulant All this being taken for granted, the work of forcing the egg yield resolves itself into careful methods in feeding the hens. They must be given food **hat will not al. go to fat, and if In Stepite of the selection of the food the h)lrds show a tendency to fatten up too ^rapidly they must be forced to take (more exercise. Keep the laying hens -busy in scratching a good part of the day, and they will eat more and lay more. Feed them plenty of ground, greet bone, pulverized shells, grit and green tolngs. All of these, including scraps of meat, contain the elements needed by the laj'Tng hens. Be more careful In feeding corn, which is Pure to produce more fnt than eggs, and the bread, meal and similar fattening articles. After one has fed the birds liberally, forced them to take plenty of exercise, and attended to their general uealth, there is little more that can be done. That is about all the forcing that will pay. There are other artificial methods, but theii1 utility is rather doubtful.?Anne C. Webster, in American Cultivator. Reason* For Unproductive Orchard*. Observatious and studies lend tha Illinois experiment station to oier thej following as some of the many reason*} why orchards are often unproductive:} First?Too many growers are expecting a crop to be given them without putting forth any efforts themselves after the trees have been set The apple require the same careful attention as do other farm crops. Second?Lack of moisture Is a Common cause of failure to the iapple grower in Illinois. iThis Is because grass and otner crops are auoweu wr, compete with the trees for the mols- j ture supplied by rains. Water is just ; as essential to the apple tree on a hot summer's day as it is to the laborer in the harvest field. Third?Injuries resulting from at* tacks of injects or of fungous diseases are a very common cause of failure. . These depredators will probably always consider that they have as much right to the products of the farm as does the farmer himself. For this reason he must get his artillery and ammunition and fight the enemy. Fourth?Lack of fertility is a very common cause of failure in southern, western and some sections of northern j Illinois. The apple orchard cannot ' produce a profitable crop unless pro- ! vided with an .ample supply of nitro- j gen, potash and phosphoric acid. Fifth ?Some orchards in the State which have come to the notice of this station are unprofitable because of improper pruning or lack of pruning. ; Light and air are essential for the development and ripening of the apple. ! Sixth?Many varieties of apple trees have been planted ' without any thought given to their adaptability to the particular soil or climate.. Loss iii apple growing is often wholly a matter of varieties. n rSeventh?Trees propagated from unproductive stock have been responsible for many failures. Scions should lie selected from bearing trees or i hose which have demonstrated their ability for productiveness. Kiglith ? Sterility as a result of planting an orchard of only one variety is a common cause of failure, in . part at least. Cross fertilization is desirable with all fruits. Ninth ? Excessive climatic conditions. as the February freeze of 1809, or the killing of the blossoms by frost, are oftentimes responsible for unproductiveness. Poultry Notes. Boiling tiie milk that is fed to fowl9 lessens the risk of disease. Warm washed boiled potatoes, with kitchen scraps, make a very good combination. | uruinaruy nens anu iowis suouju ue fattened at the expiration of tbe second year. TouHry is the cheapest, best and most cor .'euient meat grown upou the farm. To raise poultry successfully you must have suitable buildings and give your fowls good attention. Fowls often learn to eat eggs by being fqd the shells nearly whole. Crush them before feeding. Sitting hens can be trained to leave the nest of their own accord by having the door open at n regular time each day. A handy way to feed roots to fowls is sim: ly to split the beets or cabbages lengthwise and fasten 10 the partition with a long wire nail. Wire fences with close mesh need not be as high as other fences because for various reasons the fowls do not readilv attempt to fly over them. The worst food for young chickens is sour cornnieal. It is a chief cause of dysentery. Better bake it, or at least scald it and mix fresh every day. An overfat hen is sure to product but few eggs. Besides overfat hen' are more liable to disease than a hen that is kept just huugry enough to scratch in the litter all day. Kerosene or carbolic acid and water poured into the crevices about the roosts will kin red mites. In fairly clean poultry houses there is seldom much trouble from lice or mites. Some people's idea of cleaning a poultry house is far from thorough. While rich dishwater, milk, etc.. Is relished by fowls as a drink, pure water is as much rtlished at least once a day as though they did not I have the former. Pure, clean water I now and then is relished by most .'.ny I hen. w A^olSEHoLD What to Hp In Emer(Wol?i> Choking With\a Fish>flfc^-If the bone is a small one rr..-nl^H? a morsel of bread half Ciewe<i^BRy remove it.

Fly in U i Eye?This is a very common occurrence in the summer time, especially when cycling. When a fly gets into the eye gently? rub the eyelid in one direction to bring the fly to the inner corner of the eye, and it will then be able to be removed with the fingers. If this fails lift up one eyelid so as to get the other under it to sweep it. Bleeding at the Nose?If this is excessive it must be stopped at once. The brow and nose should be bathed with the coldest water possible. An upright position must be maintained, the head thrown back and the arms raised, and ice or a cold piece of steel appueu to tue spilie.

Receptacles f^r waste paper are on every street corner. It is a meritorious act to gather the sacred characters and save them from desecration. The love of learning is so great that many learn to read from the flowery Oriental Bigns over the shop fronts. It is said that if all the classics were destroyed the knowledge of these scriptures is so diffused that there are 3,000,000 men in China who could reproduce them from memory. Time Balli For Marlnera. The largest time Wall in the United States is being erected on the roof of the Fourth street end of the Bourse, the task being under the supervision of Lieutenant Hughes, who is in charge of the Branch Hydrographic Office in Philadelphia. The ball, which is four feet in diameter and weighs sixty pounds, will be hoisted to the top of an iron column 100 feet above tidewater, five minutes before noon each day, and dropped electrically forty feet to an air cushion exactly at noon by the naval observatory clock in Washington. The object of the time ball is to enable all tjie mariners in the Delaware and Schuylkill Rivers to regulate their chronometers before sailing. It will be discernible at a distance of seven miles. Time balls are dropped every day at noon at Boston, Newport, Wood's Holl, New York, Baltimore, Washington, Fortress Monroe, Savannah and New Orleans. Philadelphia mariners have long felt the want of a time ball, and now they are about to have not only the largest but the most improved mechanical apparatus of its kind in the country.?

Forty-three depressions are now known, twenty-four in the Pacific, three in the Indian Ocean, fifteen in the Atlantic, and oue in the Southern Ocean. Within these "deeps" twenty-four soundings exceeded 4000 fathoms, including three exceeding 5000 fathoms. The greatest depth of all was to the east of Friendiy Islands, in 1he South Pacific, where the depth was 5355 fathoms, or 530 feet more than five geographical miles, or, again, 2000 feet more below the level of the sea tuan the highest part of the Himalayas Wasp Stings?Apply ammonia or hartshorn.

Shortly before the Duchess of Teck's .path she and her daughter were at^.ading a charity bazaar opening, when the provincial chairman took the floor and commenced to eulogize the merits of their distinguished patroness. After he had exhausted his eloquence on "the great charity and large and liberal views" of the Duchess his attention was directed to the slender lady at her side, and Princess May had a turn. Remembering the Duchess of Teck's substantial'proportions, the ludicrousness of his remark Is apparent, when he wound up a flowery sentence by hoping that the Duchess of York would "develop on the same broad lines as her mother."

"Of course you think It's none of my business, but " Here he was stopped short. "Indeed I do think It is none of your business. You are exceedingly out of place. I have nothing to say to you. Please excuse me." Blank never was turned down. "I beg pardon," he said. "I was abrupt. But I am no advertising agent. I am a capitalist, and you have interested me so much that I couldn't help asking who of your firm gets up those wonderful ads. If I could find such a man I should form a partnership with him this very day. He's the kind of genius I've been looking for these twenty years."

Pore Air in Heated Dwelling Rooua.- ' "When a coal fire is in use for heating and the electric light for lighting an inhabited room the air is purer than by any of the other plans tried for heating and lighting." Such Is, perhaps, the most important conclusion arrived at in an Interesting investigation on this subject by Mr. Francis Jones. Mr. Jones's investigation has led to other observations which are not less in point of interest as bearing upon the question of the healthy condition of domestic apartments. He finds, for instance, that the air pf a room, however heated and lighted, is purest at the floor, less pure three feet above, and most impive at the ceiling, and that when a gas Are is in use for heating and the electric light for lighting the amount of carbon dioxide in the room rises rapidly in the first two or three hours and then remains uniform for three or four hours afterward. When a coal fire is in use and an ordinary gas jet is burning the nlr of flip room is nurer than when a gas,fire Is in use and an ordinary gas jet burning. The use of a gas cooking stove with a flue connected with the chimney greatly raises the amount of carbon dioxide in the air of the room.
