CURING GRAIN IN A HOSPITAL
Sanitarium for Sick Cereals at Port
Arthur , Ontario.
Most of us are familiar with ilosnt
tats and retreats where life and !
health may be restored to human boeIngs
Ings and animals but n. new and interesting -
tOl'osUng phase is a sanitarium for
grain. .
Plants and flowers are subject to
disease , and as the Joss of crops
throughout the United States alone ]
has been estimated at some eighteen
million dollars , it becomes imperative
that an effort should be made to save
the diseased grain Very often farm'
ers Jose the whole crop because of bo

ing compelled ] to harvest in wet
weather.
To the . new hospital , which is locat-
eel at Port Arthur , Ontario , the farm-
ers may send their grain to be treated
and carefully nursed. After passing out
of the care of the experts the grain is
said to be cleaner and more whole-
some than wheat which has not been
subjected to this process. Convales-
cent wheat has been stored away and
kept in perfect health for several
years.
When the wheat m unto death ar-
rives , a nurse places it in a bath of
pure water , where it is brushed and
scoured in machines made for the
purpose until the grains are highly
polished and in good shape for the
mill. It is then placed upon a bed
made of screening and subjected to a
jamming process , first of hot , then of
cold air , until it is perfectly dry.
Again the graIn is subjected to an-
other cleaning ] process , after which It
is ready to be returned to the owner ,
with the guarantee that It is thor- .
oughy ] cured. Strange to say , when
It is weighed it seems to have lost
nothing , and being all grain and no
chaff It weighs three or four pounds
heavier to the bushel.

A Long Sleep.
An agricultural laborer in Russia

months He "dropped oft" while at
work In the fields , was carried home ,
and remained slumberIng for the
period mentioned , watched from time
to time by physicians. CuriouslY

attempt was made to feed him. When
he awoke he was as weak ] as an In-
