Representative Schall, member of the house’ of representatives from Minnesota, Is blind, and has been for ten years. During this time lie .“fays that he has discovered that the see ing world has strange ideas as to the limitations of the blind4. that it seems to think, because a m.an can’t see lie Clin neither hear-not feel,,-find Is a strange, detached piece of human mechanism that is not to be reckoned with directly, but through the guiding hand. Kot long ago Mr. Scliall was return ing from his home in Minneapolis to. Washington, accompanied only by his small .son Douglas. The first morning tliey appeared in the diner the waiter , assigned to their table iiKpilred of young Douglas; “Son, what does your father want?” “Why, ask him,” quickly replied the child, “he knows what he wants. As for me, bring jne pancaks and sausage and chocolate!” Ready for Hanging. The prisoner looks the picture of dejection.” “Yes, and he sa.vs he’s been framed.” RADIUM’S USE IN SURGERY Points. Its Rays So Powerful That They Can Destroy the Useless or Dis eased Tissue. * ' The use of radium in hospitals is becomlng^iSore, and more demanded by the memcaL profession. The Sci entific Americtajin telling of its med ical and surgllcal uses, explains th^t It is a tool and not a meillclne. The radium gives off three rays, known as .the alpha, beta and gamma rays. The first, about 85 per cent of the total ray force, can be stopped by tissue paper; the second will penetrate 35 inHlI- nieters of lead, while the third has a vibration similar to the X-ray. This ray is the one usf'd.ln surgery.' The rays are sem^nto the body, and so powerful' lire they thaf they can penetrate to a great depth, and | there de-stroy the useless or diseased tissue. As, the good tissue has a greater resistance. than the bad, the highly skilled operative can bear the gamma rays on tlie nfllleted part until they begin to destroy the good tis sue, when the treatment must stop. AVOID EXCESSIVE SJPRATING ■■ cv? Injury ReMilted to Trade &icauM Con- •iderahle Residue Remained on tho* Fruit. _ , ,, *. ’ » ' Where fruit growers late in thO sen- son have sprayed fruit so heavily as to leave a residue on It the United States “D^artment of Agriculture urges them -to remove the coating by wiping or other means that will make the fruit acceptable in the market ■One giethod recommended for apples and pears which can be followed at a cost of a few cents per box is to wipe the fruit with cotton gloves. It Is pointed out that if heavy rainfalls do not occur after heavy late, spray ings the coating that remains may dis figure It sufficiently to arouse appre hension- In the minds of the consum- efs even though ^he residue may be entirely harmless. In some cases how- fever heavy late spraying has been snffl- clent to he actually injurious and so subjects such fruits to seizure under state or federal food and drug laws. Where apples and pears when har vested show evidence of spray resi dues which have not been removed In picking, handling, grading and pack ing, It is reifommended that such fruits be systematically wiped before being placed on.the market or packed for shipment. While this precaution is ap plicable to all fruit sprayed late in the season, it Is especially important in the more southern apple districts \yhere the grower is often compelled to spray tp" protect the fnjit against bitter rot, and. in Irrigated orchards of the West and Northwest where protection of apples and pears against the later broods of the codling moth Is secured by Spraying with arsenate of lead. While at this season the depart ment’s 'speelnllsts are laying emphasis on the importance of wiping fruit that has a residue from spraying, they also take occas'on to urge that no grower should suppose fniTt Injury resulting from^eglect of proper spraying early in the season can he corrected by be lated spraying. Heavy late spraying undertaken In an effort to make up for what should have been done earlier is strongly condemned. The practice of spraying growing fruit properly marks one of the most important steps In horticulturai prog ress and is responsible, to a large ex tent, for the sound, attraetive appe^ir- ance of fruit now on the marlcet, which Is in marked i-ontrast to the In sect-injured and disease-spotted fruit so prevalent a few years ago.

NITROGEN GATHERING CROPS Probably Good Investment to Sow One of Crops Even at Present High Cost of Seed. In orchards that are In great need of nitrogen it will probably be a good Investment to sow one of the nitrogen gathering crops, even at the present high price of seem tiiough many prefer to add the nitrogen for the present in the form of chemicals and rely on t cheaper caver crop to furnish the organic matter.
