HEALTH AND HYGIENE ETHER IN VEINS New Method of Surgical Operations Used for the First Time in Phila delphia The injection of an ether solution into the veins of a patient as an an aesthetic was attempted for the first time in Philadelphia at the Hahne mann Hospital last month. The opera tion was a major ont and the results were reported successful at the hos pital. It is said this is the second time that an operation has been parformed under these circumstances in the United States. The operation was performed in the clinic of the hospital by Dr. W. B. Van Lennep, dean of the Hahnemann Medi cal College. He was assisted by Dr. J. Willie Hasseller, of New York; Dr.G A. Van Lennep and Dr. C. Allen Bigler, Jr., both of the Hahnemann Hospital. Dr. Hasseller presented the discov ery to the American physicians for the first time last Summer at the sur gical congress held in New York. Dr, Hasseller would not discuss tne opera tion but was enthusiastic over the possi bilities of the discover'. The solution which is to be injected into the vein of the patient is two per cent ether salts heated to a tenv perature of ninety degrees. The tern perature is raised to this point that the patient may not ba chilled after the injection. The solution is admin istered through a needle connected with a tube pratically the same as that used for other injections. No pain is experienced by the patient at any time during the injection of the ether. Less than two minutes from the time the injection of ether the pa tient was practically dead to the world. This condition existed for thirty-five minutes. In this time the operation was perlormed. What is commonly known as the "coming out of ether took but a short time. Philadelphia Press. HEALTH LEGISLATION How to Get Good Health Work One of the biggest things coming be fore the next General Assembly is the health of two and one-quarter millions of North Carolinians. For a long tims these General Assemblies have been buying more or less of that commodity known as public health. Just how much they got no one ever knew. Why? books showing what the state or any of the towns or counties saved in needless deaths as a result of making these appropriations. Why should not health officers be made to show whether or not they are worth their salt ? Doubt less many are, but what about the others? If a health officer is a paying officer to a town, county or state ij; should be known; if he is not, that fact should also be known. But how are the people to know, how can they tell whether or not a health officer is worth his salt ? Easily enough. A health officer's business is to reduce sickness and prevent deaths. Now, if this coming Legislature will pass a vital statistics law, in a very short time every intelligent citizen will know how the death rate in his town, county or state compares with death rates in neighboring towns, counties and states. Likewise he will know about the death rates for particular diseases. Then it will be easy enough to know when and where and how much to appropriate for, or when, where and how much to cut down on public health appropriations. Let's have a vital statistics law and know the facts. DIET AND HEALTH HINTS By DR. T. I. ALLEN Food Specialist THE SOYA BEAN. An American consul reports that the German government Is Introducing the soya bean ex tensively from Japan. This bean is superior to any of the varie ties used In this country, which, while they are nutritious, are digested with difficulty, and their starch and their tough outer coating require so much cooking that the albuminous and mineral elements are large ly Injured. The soya bean con tains about 20 per cent fat and 40 per cent proteld. It Is much like the peanut In composition, but Is more easily cultivated. It is an excellent food in dia betes and should be generally cultivated In America. (Copyright, 1911. by Joseph B. Bowles.) HEALTH HINT FOR TODAY. For Convalescents.

Cultivation Points Fcund ilood by lh Qh-o iiepartmcnt of Agrieultyrt. Have land. TUat which raid's ihe biM coi n U l hi best to raise Lefts. Land tiii! le deeply plowed. We re after a ro:.t .rp. not soiuetblns th:it trows above I lie ground. Use plenty of seed. If yoa do not pet a good stand you wtil not get a good crop of becH. .Seed Is cheap and Is furuMicd by lue factories at cost price. Roll the beets wcit. Iloll again. Watch the hand labor at the time they nre thiiii.Tng and blocking tne beets. This Is important. Cultivate thoroughly. Do not stop at any time. You cannot fire beets as jou can corn. It Is the cultivation that puts the sugar In the beets. The German farmer soys, ' You have to hoe lu the sugar." The land must be thoroughly tilled- not because beets will not stand more water than corn, but because the hand labor costs so much that the farmer should uot run any risk oa laud, that Is not well tiled. Beets take a little more of the fertil ity from the land than corn. Accord ing to Professor Hopkins, it takes 100 pounds of nitrogen, IS pounds of. phos phorus and !..( pounds of potassium for a twenty ton crop of beets. Tne fertility can be returned to the land by plowing under the tops and feeding the pulp to cows and putting the uia uuro back ou the land. Sugar itseif is twelve parts of carbon to ono part of water chemically united Reels get the water from the rain that falls upon the ground; get the car bon from the air through the leaves. Peels raised on clover sod, the land of which has been thoroughly tiled. could make easily twenty tons to the acre. Sugar companies now pay $4.50 for beets testing 13 per cent and 2JM cents for everj 1 per cent additional. The farmer should endeavor to In crease the yield of sugar In the beet This they can do by thorough cultiva tiou. I"" i. DAIRY WISDOM. Many bits of dairy 'wisdom were spoken by Secretary Wil son of the United States depart ment of agriculture in his ail dress at the opening of the Na tional Dairy show In Chicago recently. The following Is au extract from that address: "When we make the most of our tiiue and acres we will sell -o cow feed- to Europeans to x maintain their soil fertility aud rediicV ours as we uow do." Making Use of Empty Cans. If the Viousewife is using very much canned goods store goods, we mean ask .her to save all the empty cans. Voij will find them very useful in the garden. Melt the top3 and bottoms off and tie a string around the remaining colls of tin to keep them in shape. They will ho handy to use in place of flats, l'laco a dozen or more of these can3 filled with soil ou a board or In a shal low box in the window and plant melon aud cucumber seeds in them. When tin; weather permits the hills are prepared and the can with the growing plant set out, then the string Is cut and the can relaxes, leaving the dirt with the plants in the ground without so much as breaking a root. The can is then removed and used elsewhere. They are also valuable for potting plants aud covering cuttings. Farm Tress. Building Up the Soil. Joseph 10. Wing gives the sensible advice to -use limestone always to build soils through the growth of tho clovers and alfalfa. Tho formula is in this order: Keep up the lime coutent in the soil; that will hold the clover and alfalfa: plow under an occasional crop of either with phosphate. Then your soil will be strong for any crop. Bees For Every Farm. It is safe to say that every farm could support at least a few hives of bees. Nearly oil parts of our country produce honey In sufficient quantities to pay for the gathering. The amount of honey tint goes to waste every year for want of bees to gather it is very large in fact, too large to estimate. Honey Producers, Attention! Now is the time when colonies should be given a hasty examination to de termine which have died and which need feeding, nnd many colonies that would otherwise die can be saved if at tended to in time. No colony should be examined or Its hive opened unless the day Is clear and reasonably warm and should not be left open for a longer period than Is absolutely necessary, und In closing the hive great enre should be exercised in replacing the packing that constituted the winter protection. ' Where colonies have died the hives with their combs should be tnken into the house, nnd later on these bodies and combs can bo used as extractiiiR combs with colonies that have win tered well, rv they can be used for making Increase, ihe bees will soon freothem of dead bees nnd other ref use tir.d mal e them all rlpcht nfialn.

On such an circa; ion, the paper b;.g comes paily Into Its kingdom. Not the used baft, but oi. e hoiding something cooked in busnu;g a gut. For such ambushing, splotch br liberally with color or 1eo decorate thern with gilt and silver stars, pasted on the sides, and tie their necks with gay ribbon, pulling Inside a ruffle of fringed crepe paper matching the ribbon-color. Edibles, of course, must be bagged ver;' shortly before being distributed. Iced tKrtlets, small pretty fancy cakes, r.uts, raisins, bits of crystallized fruit, oil make admirable filliugs. What manner of sweets, fruits, can dies, nuts, etc., appear must depend, of course, upon the hostess. She will not err If the candies are largely home-made and plentifully reinforced with fresh fruit and good cake. Nuts are essential, but should not be eaten, too liberally. The best preventive of such excess is a satisfying menu. Here Is one that should appeal to hungry young creatures, yet do thera no sort of harm. Hot Chocolate or Cocoa with Whipped Cream Hot Chicken Biscuit Hot Sweet Potato Biscuit Homemade Candy Salted Peanuts- Mince Turnovers Pound Cake Icecream Sandwiches Kruit and Nuts Make chocolate as you like; but have plenty of hot milk, also boiling water, at hand, so it can be varied to suit individual tastes. For the chicken biscuit begin by roasting a fine fat chicken, duly washed and trussed, greased all over and bacon-covered on the breast. Do not stuff it, but put inside half a dozen stalks of celery and a peeled and quar tered apple. Lay a few moro stalks of celery in the tag, vLici r.ceds a small lump of butter in addition tcr thick grea&ing, ec-e.1, and cook done, taking care the bag does riot break. Remove carefully from the bag, a::d while still hot, mince the meat r.s fine as you can, mincing also the apple and celery, which will be cooked very soft. Taste. If the light seasoning wtict- tho chicken had Is insufficient, add more salt and a bare dusting of pep per, red and black. Pour upon the mmced mass the gravy from the bag, add a very little more butter and a v"1 '"-gTPftpgd bae and beat Tor' five minutes. Take up and pat by spoonfuls, rather eeant ones, between hot biscuit, which have been rolled thin and baked double, after brushing over the lower one with melted butter. Keep hot inside a bag, in the hot stove where the flame is out, until needed. For sweet potato biscuit, boil soft a quart of sound potatoes and peel and mash fine while hot, taking out all lumps and strings. Mix with its own bulk of flour sifted with a teaspoon ful of baking powder. Shorten well with butter, wet tip rather stiff with sweet milk, roll out, cut in small rounds and bake in a greased bag with, a tiny hole In the upper side. Fifteen minutes ought to be long enough. Mince turnovers, which explain themselves, must be very small. Make the original round of paste about four inches across. Tiit only a teaspoonful 'A mincemeat upon it, fold it over very neatly and pinch the edges well to gether. Fkuten and cook inside a but tered bag. For the Icecream sandwiches, cut very thin slices from a thick loaf of pound cake, ficut tKe slices upon ond Bide and lay them together, two and (wo, naked sides touching. At serving time, cut a very thin slice of Icecream, lay it deftly between two of tha fronted cake slices, and pass on to ba eaten at once. This second menu may please soma households better. It is suited to &Zter noon serving, rather than evening. Peanut Brown Bread Sandwiches Cider Cup or Tea-Lemonade Oyster Patties or Minced Chicken Turnovers Bread and Batter Sandwiches Clear Broth, Small Cups iliced Oranges with Frosted lndlvidua Sponge Cakes Fruit Nuts Candl Directions have been given for cider tup and tea-lemonade. Roast and pind the peanuts, season lightly with lalt and mix with either melted butter )r a very mild Freach dressing to a rather stiff paste. Spread between rery thin slices of buttered brown iread aud keep moist until wanted. For cyster patties, bake shells of puff paste Inside paper bags, cool, and all with oysters prepared as for oyster' landwlches. Prepare chicken as for the chicken biscuit, but bake It in tiny turnovers. Boil the bones of It with 1 little fresh celery and a sliced to mato to make the broth. Cut the oranges carefully around, remove the peel in two sections and notch the edges of each, thus making pretty cups. Slice the fruit thin, tak ing away strings and white pithy rind, mange in the cups, cover with sugar, put a little shreded crystallized ginger in top and keep cool till wanted. Bake the sponge cake in a square shallow mould. Let it get cold, cut In small squares, frost with tinted Icing and serve in a basket lined with, -hke crepe paper frills.
