MOSS AS SURGICAL DBESSING. 



The value of sphagnum moss as a 

 surgical dressing is now generally 

 known, and there are forty-five depots 

 in Ireland to which the moss is sent to 

 be made up into surgical dressings of 

 standard sizes. Over 100 collecting sta- 

 tions scattered over the country supply 

 moss to the Eoyal College of Science in 

 Dublin. Nearly 1,000,000 finished ar- 

 ticles made of this moss have now been 

 exported, apart from the work done by 

 the Ulster Sphagnum Moss Association. 

 In 1915 the demand on the Irish organ- 

 ization came almost entirely fr^™ 

 France, but gradually and steadily it in- 

 creased, till now a constant stream of 

 supplies goes to military hospitals in 

 Ireland, England, France, Italy, Salo- 

 nika, Egypt and Mesopotamia. 



Mankato, Minn.— E. C. Willard, who 

 had a freeze-up last year, now has his 

 place in first-class shape and with, he 

 thinks, sufficient heating capacity to 

 carry him through even the most severe 

 of seasons. His specialty is vegetables 

 under glass, but he grows pansies and 

 geraniums for spring trade and expects 

 to develop a wholesale business in young 

 stock.
