He knew it was a foolish thing to do, for he was much safer in the dear old Briar Patch, but since the coming of the snow he had remained at home until he was so bored that he just couldn’t stand it any longer. So, despite the protests of little Mrs, Petel he had gone over to the Green For He wanted excitement. He wanted to know what was going on there. He had hardly reached the Green Forest when along came his big cousin “Hello, Cousin Peter, so far from the dear old Briar Patch?” said Jumper. s “Oh,” replied Peter, “I got tired of staying there.

There is one important drawback or weakness about this whole study which too many nutri- tion experts or authorities forget when offering their startling conclusions or presumptions to the public, and that is the fact that rats or guinea pigs may thrive or live on food which will scarce- | Iy suit children’s nutritive needs. This is one reason why we should use the in- mates of penal institutions as material for scientific medical experimentation for the benefit of mankind J. B. Orr and J. L. Gilks, British | government medical research service, have made a study of the.nutrition of two neighboring African tribes, one of which, the Akikuyu Tribe, is almost exclusively vegetarian, gnd the othe the Masal, chiefly carnivorous in habit; The diet of the Akikuyu consisted | largely of cereals, roots and fruits, bulk of the diet being cereals. | Masai diet consisted of milk, meat and | raw_blood. The full-grown Masal male was found to be 5 inches taller and 23 pounds heavier than the full-grown Akikuyu male, on the average. The MENU FOR A DAY. BREAKFAST.

Many other differences were mnoted which rather tend to shatler preconceived no- tions about diet. For instance, the vepetarian Akikuyu was found much more subject o bony deformities, caries or decay of the teeth and anemia than was the carnivorous Mazai. The carnivorous tribe, however, showed a greater prevalence of intes- tinal stasis and of rheumatoid arthritis than did the vegetarian tribe. No one knows enough about “rheumatoid ar- thritis” or any form of joint trouble by whatever any conclusions from its prevalence in such a tribe.

The general conclusion from this study was that a carnivorous diet is | entirely adequate for the nutritive needs of man.

Few people know that the Loblolly| | pine, that great timber species from} | which the Tarheel State and its neigh- bors to north and south derive so much wealth, can be seen as far north as| Washington. In Summer. when all the | deciduous trees are in full and glorious | leaf, you would scarcely notice it, I sup- pose, though in many ways it is the | most beautiful of all our pines except the white pine. But in Winter, if you | are one of those who want an object for a tramp, a destination or the lure | of“discovery in hikes or auto trips, you | may try your luck on finding the Lob- lolly pine along the Patuxent, near thc Bay, or, nearer still, north of Upper Marlboro. | Other names for Loblolly pine are ! Rosemary pine, North Carolina pinc | and Old Field pine—"rosemary” from its fragrance, perhaps; “old field" from | its habit of springing up in abandonec | fields or burned-over tracts, and “Lob- lolly” 1 know not why, but the word i has & jolly, rollicking sound and is its best-known title, except perhaps the bo- | tanical one, “Pinus taeda.” Its chief | uses are as fuel and for turpentime: the timber, though rather beautiful, is coarse, brittle and soft. To know the Loblolly when you see it look for & tree with long needles (5 tc 10 inches long) in bundles of three, thc sheaths at the base of the bundles long and close, and cones 3 to 4 inches long. with scales terminating in short, stout | spines. The bark is reddish and deeply | furrowed, and the whole tree has what lumbermen call a “clean” growth— straight, handsome and rapid. Every year in the, markets I see young ~ Loblollics sold for Christmas trees, generally under the name of “long- | leaf pine,” but the real long-leaf is not | found around Washington and its needles are much finer, being as much | as 15 inches long.
