in 1914, while in 1923 the rate was 103.6, estimated on the 100,000 population basis. There were 38 deaths from the disease in Putnam County. In speaking of the coming sale Dr. W. M. McGaughey, Chairman of the county association said today, "Slowly the Christmas Seal and its organized efforts against tuberculosis are hearing fruit throughout this county and the state from the cities of the Calumet to the Ohio River boundaries." Anti-tuberculosis programs designed toward prevention, isolation and cure of the tuberculosis within our borders are having effect. It is so in practically every state in the Union where determined citizens are giving their time and money to reduce ‘hits greatest of our bodily scourges. In many respects Indiana is leading in the fight as a state. For four years we have led all other states in the Mississippi Valley in per capita number of Christmas Seals purchased by our public. The proceeds from these sales are turned hack to fight the common enemy among us. The death late is decreasing steadily, as facilities lor fighting the "plague” are enhanced and enlarged. We hope to sell $1,500 worth of seals in Putnam County this year.”

The redwood grove dedicated in ids memory is only a small tract—195 acres. It adjoins the Humboldt state ; redwood park, in the heart of one of j the finest remaining redwood regions, and itself contains unusually splendid specimens of tills giant tree. More common than its cousin, the sequoia gignnten, or "big tree,” it lias also been subject to greater destruction. It attains neither the weight nor the age of tlie big trees, hut is often taller. Where the giant sequoias reach a diameter of 35 feet, the redwoods rarely exceed ten feet. John Muir lias estimated tlie age of some of the biggest specimens of sequoias at between 3,000 and 4.000 years, whereas few redwoods have been found over 1,400 years of |
age.
The worst enemy of the redwood, as of tlie big trees, is man, insects and other pests being unable to attack the large specimens, and even fire more often than not leaves them unscathed, owing to tlie thick hark and tough nature of the wood. The greed of man, however, is Insatiable. Against tills Rie only effective protection is control by state or national bureaus. Travelers In the ’80s and ’90s describe Hie ruthless destruction of these giant forests by lumberers, who used methods so wasteful ttiat often two-thirds of u tree was unfit for use.

City’a Rapid Growth Fifty-three years ago, Akron, Ohio, was selected as the site for tlie first rubber factory to tie established west of the Allegheny mountains. At that time It was an easy-going little city of less than 10,000 inhabitants, covering only a few square miles of ground. The Akron of today as compared with 53 years ago Is vastly different, says the India Rubber Review. The city now covers more than 25 square miles. It has a population in excess of *200,000. Its many rubber and tire factories employ more than 30,000 persons. More than 50 per cent of all rubber tires made in tlie world are products of Aknm factories. Tlie value of the output of tires and other rubber products exceeds $500,000,000 a year. Compared to tlie first rubber factory of half a century ago, run bywater power, Akeon's rubber factories of today consume more than 500,000 horsepower of steam and electrical energy every 24 hours.

Queen of the China Sea Capt. \V. H. Dowman, the owner of the famous old ten-clipper Gutty Sark, is considering whether lie will put canvas on the ship nml endeavor to break tlie old sailing record to Australia, says London Answers. The Cutty Sark lias now been practically rerigged from a barquentine into a full-rigged ship, carrying a main sky-sail yard. Tin- aim lias been to get as near ns possible to tlie ship's rig in 1870 when under Captain Moodie she made the quickest voyage from Chinn of all tlie clipper licet. It would, however, take at least two years to compleie aiTimgements for Hie Australian voyage. Tlie Cutty Sark is at present at Falmouth and was a striking feature at the recent Kowey regatta.
