Thc ambulance made .^51 calls during the year, which in itself Indicates a rnther active ttmi', w^ien it Is considgred thnt thOj4n«titution Js a small one. The averagt! cost per day' for u patient is between $4 and IS. This niedn's that many of the cases, and especially those that are town and couhty charges, do not pay anywhere near what it c«sts to treat siu'h uises.
The hospital derives its income from different sources. There are paid meui- bershlfis whii-h'tlieans that per.snns who are nienibcrs of the a.s.soclation pay n cSrtain sum yearly.

The process scoops the mud and makes a roiiglily circular hole in the road something like the crater of a very small volcano, but the "chata" Is out, nnd on Its way again.
The preparation recommended here i.s not a boiled solution as might be in¬ ferred from the name. Many inquiries have come to the Na.s.sau Counly Farm Bureau regarding the mixing of the spray referred to. In response to which the following Infiwniatton is heing given: Self-boiled llme-sulfui- is prepared by placing in a barrel eight pounds of best stone lime, to which is added a small quantity of cold wuter in order to start it slaking. Kight iwunds of suifui- worked through a .sieve to break up the lumps is then added^ slowly to the slaking lime, which is kept from buming by tho addition of just enough cold water .so as not to diown it slaking lime must bn stirred constant¬ ly. Ju.st as soon us the slaking i.s com- Iileteil (whieli .'should lie in five to fif¬ teen minutes) fill tlie barrel with cold v.-aler (50 gallon.s.) Tho mixture is mu.st be agitated constantly while be- iiK- npt>li.cd as it settles rapidly. When properly made the preparation should have but little .sulfur in solution. This niixtuie is especially adapted for the I'PiayIng of peaches and plums in fol¬ iage, as it cau.ses no injury.

8b«ll*w "Impraaaienlsta." Shallow characters try to make Im¬ pressions wtth dress. To he able to "port something new and a few weeka ahead of the fashion seems to them most desirable. So the matter of color, design and everything else thnt enters into creations whose chief end ia to entrance and bewilder becomes a pas¬ sion whose end In attained In the !m- liresslon made. What nonsense some folk reaort to to make Impressions. Who hain't seen the display of jew¬ elry that betrays cheapness of mind nnd poverty of good taste? Who hasn't seen the clothes Ihnt needed a descrip¬ tive leaflet to let you know just what tho thing was^ supposed to be? Such Impressions'are far from being of the ItInd that compels admiration.

Do you Know the Facts | About Building Costs?
Do you know that lumber and building materials are down?
Hare you talked to us lately about building?
Do you know how reasonably you can make needed repairs, build your new home, or remodel your old one?
Better get In touch with the situation at once.
The big building program that was expected in 1920 failed to de>«lop. The manufacturers were caught with foo lars* Stocks, and were forced to turn tbem orer at almost coat.
"Wt can show yon a substa^al saving on srery ftam In otfx line.
But it's only fair to tell you this condition may b« only temporary. Thc country is short more than* a million homes. Our own city la short (00,000 homes. Wh»n people begin to do thla long delayed building, demand will Increase rapidly, creat¬ ing another shortage of materials, and prices will advance again.
If you are planning to build, remodeV or repair, come in and let us gire you figures. Then whea, wo show you tha actual savings over last year's prices and show you how favorably present costs compars with those of 1>14, make your own daoislon.
