SERUM FOR RAT-BITE FEVER
Japanese Physicians Declare Cure- Is
Obtained From Veins of Persons
Who Have Recovered.
A group of eminent Japanese doc
tors has been busy studying rat-bite
fever ever since Futakl, Ishlwara and
their associates reported two years ago
the discovery of the microbe that
causes It. This Is a spirochete, so
called because its form is spiral or
Elg-zag. Several types of this spiro
chete were found In men who had been
bitten by rats, and in guinea pigs that
had been experimentally inoculated.
These wero Identified by Futakl as In
all probability Identical.
Doctors Renjlro, Knneko and KIkuzo
Okuda of tho Imperial University in
Kyushu, Fukuoka, Japan, contribute
to the Journal of Experimental Medi
cine a confirmation of Futnkl's belief;
Doctor Ityoklchl Inada contributes a
description of tho disease; Doctors Yu
taka Mo, Itokuto Holt, Hlroshl Ito and
HIdetsune Waul describe experiments
that prove tho rat to be the common
carrier of the Splrocheta lcterohaemor
rhagica, as tho microbe of the disease
is called; and Doctors Yutuka Ido, Hl
ros'i.t Ito, HIdetsune Wanl and KIkuzo
Okuda discuss the possibility of pro
ducing immunity.
The latter go into details of their
experiments and come to the conclu
sion that the "serum of persons who
have recovered from rat-bite fever con
tains an immune body which destroys
tho spirochetes of thnt disease."
'' The importance of these articles lies
in the llnul proof that this spirochete
is the cause of the fever, that rats are
the carriers, and that the disease can
be cured.

and Soothing Syrups. It is pleasant. It contains neither Opium,
Morphine nor other narcotic substance. Its age is its guarantee.
For more than thirty years it has been in constant use for the
relief of Constipation, Flatulency, Wind Colic and Diarrhoea;

Over the Fence and Out.
At the Gibson county fair at Prince
ton there nre places where tho fences
must be guarded to keep boys and
others from swarming over nnd in,
says the Indlanupolis News. Tills
year one of tho amateur policemen
appointed for a long strip of fence sat
down in the shade and fell nsleep. Ben
Murphy, president of the association,
chanced to sec a long, gangling youth
climb the fence there. "You'll have
to pay or get out," he told the youth.
"Got no money; guess I'll get out,"
was the response. "No, on second
thought," said Murphy, "I'll let you
stay in on condition. You go wake that
policeman nnd tell him you climbed In
over the fence."
"Shucks, then eh'll throw mo out."
"Try it, anyway," said the presi
dent; "you'll get to stay."
Long Boy did as bidden. "I climbed
over tho fence)" lie told the aroused
watchman.
"What!" exclaimed that individual.
"Then right out you go."
He dragged the youth toward a gate,
but the youngster yelled lustily to Mr.
Murphy and he came up.
'Tm putting this hoodlum out," ex
plained the policeman; "he climbed
the fence."
"ne said he did," snapped back tho
association head, "but I told him to
stay and have appointed him to keep
you awake. Turn him loose."
Long Boy saw the fair, but no more
of his kind got over tho fence that
day.

A dentist, who had been made nerv
ous by frequent burglaries in his
vicinity, was somewhat startled recent
ly by having n man come regularly at
tho same hour every evening and sit
on his doorstep. He Anally suggested
that, If it would be all the same to
him, he would be pleased to have him
divide his attention and sit on some
neighbor's doorstep for a while.
"But It wouldn't be tho same,"
shouted the visitor," nor anything like
it. You are a dentist, and I have an
aching tooth that I haven't the cour
age to have pulled out. I come hero
every afternoon trying to make up my
mind to have it out, and as soon as I
come in sight of your "house it stops
aching, but when I sit on your door

examined them. He found that they

CELLARS OR CAVE
Particularly Desirable for Stor
age of Many Surplus
Vegetable Crops.
SUPERIOR IN MANY RESPECTS
Outdoor Affairs Can Be Maintained at
Uniform Temperature Over Long
Period Ventilators Add to
Efficiency.
(Prepared by tho United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.)
Outdoor storage cellars or caves nre
excellent for tho storage of many vege
tables. They are particularly desir
able on the fnim, as they afford con
venient and inexpensive storage facili
ties for surplus vegetable crops that
otherwise might bo lost. They possess
all the advantages of tho storage room
in the basement nnd are superior In
many respects. Tho outdoor storage
cellar can bo maintained nt a uniform
tempcruture over a long period. It is
possible to keep tho cellar cool and
quickly to reduce the temperature of

tho stored product to the desired
point for safe storage by opening tho
door during the night nnd closing it
In the morning before the nlr becomes
warm. All ventilators should likewise
be kept tightly closed until the out
side air is ngaln cooler than that with
in the cellar, when they should be
opened, unless the outside tempera
ture Is so low as to be dangerous. This
safeguards the product and adds to
the eflleiency of the storage chamber.
Vegetables can bo more conveniently
placed In such a cellar thnn In the
storage room In tho basement of a
dwelling.
When the chief use of the outdoor
storage cellar is for storing turnips,
beets, carrots, and other root crops
commonly used as stock for food, it
should be located near the stable,
where the material will be convenient
for winter feeding. When it Is to be
used for vegetables for tho table the
cellar should be accessible from the
kitchen at nil times. If apples or
other fruits nre to be stored In an out--door
stornge cellar It Is desirable to
have a two-compartment cellar, one
for vegetables and one for apples, with
ii ventilating apparatus In each com
partment. Construction of Cellar.
As tho root cellar mB3t be weather
proof, that i capable -of being kept
free Jroin moisture and free from
frost, its type and construction vary
-with the geographical location. In the
southern portion of the country tho
structure in usually entirely above,
grounfl and protected toy only u few
inches of sod and with straw, leaves,
etc. In Northern sections outdoor
Btorage cellars are mndo almost en
tirely lelow ground unfl covered with
n foot or two of earth.
Storage In Regions of Mild Winters.
An above-ground storage cellar, suit
ed to conditions in southern sections
of the United States mcy be foullt on
a well-kalnol site at might -expense
A row of posts may be let 0 or 0 feet
opart, extending 7 or 8 feet nlwve tho
surface vt itho ground, vlth .a ridge
pole placed on top of them. Against
each side of the ridgepole n mw of
anks or puncheons Is placofl. with
their oppoeito owls restlnif In . shal
low trench 4 or 5 feet from
the line of posta. The endu are iboard-
ed up, a door being provided la one
end'of the structure nnd tho room cov
ered with sod to a depth of S or 0
inches. A good typo of outdoor .stor
age cellar built along these line is
Ahown in the illustration.
Storage In Region of Severe Frttae:
In nectlons where low temperatures
prevail It la necessary to Insulate tho
storage house bo that the vegetables
will not freeze. An above-ground type
of storago house much used in many
sections of the North hnti thick wallB
filled with Insulating material, such
as sawdust or shavings. Tho construc
tion Is of frame nnd tho walls nre usu
ally 10 to 12 Inches thick. Iloth the
Inside and the outsldo walla nro
sheathed with matched lumber so as
to mako them ulrtlght Tho rafters
am celled on the under side with tho
sumo material and tho space between
the rafters filled' with dry Insulating
material. The use of building naner
Ui Uie ruof and wnllu of the utoraye J
house la of great nsslstanco In in
sulating it.
A type of storngo cellar much used
in Northern sections of tho country is
built partly under ground. Tho wnlls
are of masonry nnd extend to a point
Just nbovo the surface of the ground.
On theso wnlls plates nre set and n
roof of framo construction erected.
The roof structure is celled on the un
der side of tho rafters and somo suit
able insulating material, such as dry
sawdust or shavings, packed In tho
space between tho rafters, and then
tho shenthlng, paper, and roofing ma
terial are nppllcd. This typo of struc
ture Is preferable In many respects
to tho above-ground type, as it Is eas
ier to malntnlu tho tempornturo at the
proper yolnt and its insulation Is n
comparatively easy matter.
Protection from freezing may bo so
cured with a simpler type of structure
by making it entirely underground. In
order to avoid steps down to tho level
of tho floor, with tho consequent extrn
lnbor in storing and removing thu vege
tables, n Bldchill location Is doeb
able.
Tho excavation In the hill should be
of the npproxlmnto size of the cellar,
using the dirt for covering tho roof
nnd for banking tho Bides of tho struc
ture. A frame Is erected by sotting
two rows of posts of uniform height In
the bottom of tho pit near the dirt
walls and a third line of posts about 0
feet higher, through tho centet
of tho pit. These posts servo ns sup
ports for the planks or puncheons
forming the room of the structure, as
with the above-ground typo of stor
age cellar already described. Tho
door Is placed at one end nnd n ven
tilator put in the roof. Tho wholo
structure with the exception of tho
portion occupied by the door Is cov
ered with dirt nnd sod. The thickness
of the covering must bo determined
by tho location ; tho colder the cllmnto
the thicker tho covering. Tho dirt cov
ering may ho supplemented In win
ter by a layer of manure, straw, corn
fodder, etc. Outdoor storage cellars
usually nro left with dirt floors, as a
certain degree of moisture Is desirable.
These cellars may be made of con
crete, brick, hollow tile, stone, or other
material.
Outdoor Storage Cellar Built of Con
crete. The type of outdoor storago cellar
described above, while low in first cost,
is short lived, as tho conditions In tho
cellar ure favorable to tho decay of
wood. The concreto storngo cellar, al
though rather high in first cost, as
compared with wood, Ib n permanent
structure. Concreto possesses several
advantages over brick, stone, or other
decay-resisting materials. In the con
struction of a small structure sultablo
for tho homo It is possible to make
the roof self-supporting. And to em
ploy unskilled labor, thus lessening
the cost. It is a simple matter to wa
terproof concrete, n feature highly de
sirable In a storage cellar.
For detailed Information In refer
ence to tho mixing and handling of
concrete, the render 1b referred to
Farmers' Bulletin 401, entitled '"The
Use of Concreto on the Farm."
The site for tho concreto storage
cellar should bo selected with the samo
considerations In mind as for the
wood-frame cellar, namely, a well
drained, convenient location, prefer
ably a sldehlll, Into which It may bo
built. The excavation should bo Just
large enough for tho dirt wnlls to serve

above 4ha surface of tho ground a
board Iforra must bo used. The insldo
form Is usually made of board hold
In plaoe by scantling spaced about 18
Inches apart Temporary supports
should bo placed across tho top to
carry itihe form, so that It will bo of
the nice and Bbape desired. Tho side
walls tsnd roof should be bo construct
ed that there will bo no Joints to weak
en the structure. Tho form for the
celling may bo slightly arched by set
ting a temporary line of posts through
the middle of the excavation. A plate
placed o these posts a few Inches
higher than the height of the side
walls will allow the form boards to
be laid crosswise of the cellar, spring
ing the enda down nnd securing them
to the forms for the Insldo of tho
walls.
The whole structure with tho ex
ception of the portion occupied by tho
door, Is covered with earth to prevent
freezing, the thickness of the earth
covering depending upon tho geo
graphical locution. In the colder sec
tions of the country 2 or 8 feet
Is not too much, and additional
protection may bo given by using a
supplementary covering of straw, fod
der, or rannure. In severe cold weath
er both tho top nnd bottom air ducta
must be closed. It la well to cover the
outside endB of the nlr Inlets by woven
wire in order to provent small ani
mals from entering the storage cellar.
