But, as many of these are wanted for ordinary sickness, touts and 1)ochers huts have been erected in the grounds of those hos- pitals, like Netley and Portsmouth, which are best equipped and most accessible frons the sea.

By the subsequent de- cay in the eel' of the turned -under elover this nitrogen is set free, and converted by nitrification into avail- able food for future crops or grain, fruit trees, roots, ancl.tile like. The growth and harvesting of the nitro- gen consumers leave the soil poorer in nitrogen ; the growth of clover and other legumes, even when the crop has been harvested and the roots only ,left, leaves the Soil ill - variably richer' in that eonstituent. There are other advantages though of lesser importance 5ceruing froth this method. Humus in largo anioullts is formed .ire' the ,soil from the organic matter of the clover. In addition to the functions 01 manuring. with clover there is the mechanical as well as the chemical improvement of the soil, the addi- tion of food materials, and the en- couragement of microbic life within the soil, Then, .too, considerable amounts of potash, pbosPhoric acid, and lime aro absorbed and built up into its tissues during the growth of clover. These in part aro obtained from depths of the soil not reached by tho soots of other .farm 'crone therefore the turned -under clover crops can be considered as adding largely to the mineral supply of the ssuperlicial soil layer. The feature specially worthy of note, though, in this connection is' that this mineral food now,otfered as humates for the uee of succeeding crops is anuli more available than before the clover ap- propriated it ; it .has practically been already digested, and is, there- fore, MORE EASY OF ASSTMILATION. To these benefits must be added the good work that clover does as a "catch" crop, preventing the loss of soluble nitrates and other plant food through. the leaching action of fall rains. Since the spring of 1893 system - r otic investigatory work to determine the fertilizing value, of the clover c- crop has been prosecuted in the Con- . tral Experimental Farm at Ottawa, under the direction of Dr. W. e Saunders, experiments on the branch r farms having been started some three years later. In most of these "Watkins (gunshot).—Half a roast trials the clover has been sown with chicken, two bottles of stout, two grain, wheat or barley, in the spring, eggs, 1 1b. fruit, 2 ounces cheese, 6 and this has always resulted in a good stand of clover before the close of the season, as it grows rapidly after the grain is harvested. If the land is intended for grain the ploughing -under of the clover is: done late in. the autumn ; if a crop of potatoes or Indian corn is to be grown the next season the Clover is left till the following spring, when about the second or third week in May the clover will be quite heavy and furnish a large amount of ma- terial for turning -under, It may be urged that the burying of a crop of clover is waste. This in a measure may be true if the far - ounces port wine, a custard pudding, 4 ounces vegetables." ''Jones (enteric.)—Roast chop, two bottles of stout, two eggs, 1 lb. fruit, 2 ounces oatmeal, 2 ounces. sugar, 1 ounce fish." The place 10 roomy and cheerful; it has plenty of recreation ground, a fine swimming bath, and a library; there ere sing -songs, bagatelle, cards, chess and draughts. If the other hospitals are like it, Tommy will spread their praise. 77ie Queen they say, seemed high- ly pleased with what she saw there.

These huts were disinfected, and no harm cause of the shuffling; but the right thing to do would be to have special hos- pitals for infectious cases only. Notley is in the final stage of a sanitary regeneration which the times have imposed. Only now are the last bedsteads with sack mat- tresses being cleared out for bed- steads with steel ones; and £25,000 has had to be spent in laying down floorings in the wards which will not harbor germs as easily as the red deal did. In some other hospitals there have been improvements, too. But they will be tested very soon, when it is no longer possible to let large numbers of men recover before they are shipped home. During au- tumn the field will be cleared. ---4-•--• VEGETABLES THAT TIHINK. The tiny roots of vegetables, in their work of piercing a path through the soil to tiie surface and Otto light, act in a manner which tends to show that they are capable of thinking. If a stone lie in. their upward path, they turn aside with- out touching it, and make a path parallel with the obstacle, and if there is a worm burrow near by they will turn aside end make use of the excavation which is to make their Melt the more easy. If they do not .think, how do they discover the unseen obstacle and the equally -invisible aid? There must be cer- tain t i indications of the presence of both, and these indications act up- on somestrange form of mental or - Th ere r-There are ' vegetables whose roots move from one place to another, and plants Which do the same above' ground, Place seine Poisonous substance directly In their way, and they will take a different direction to avoid it; but if 50010 - thing nourishing is set on one side, they will go round after that, There are pinata that oat meat.'

If it behoves the Western farmer, who has tilled but for a quarter of a century one of the most fertile. soils in the world, to pay attention to the restoration of the nitrogen, humus, and available mineral food, how ,much more important is this subject . to the farmers of Eastern Canada, where for the most part the soil has been much longer tilled, and where originally lv it was not of that extreme richness to be found in the Northwest. The average yield in all our F.11stern Provinces would be considerably increased by the more extensive and regular growth of one of the legumes. Of improved Me- thods based upon scientific truths that the Experimental Farm system has been instrumental in introducing none give better promise of fruitful results titan that which exemplifies the value of humus for the enrich- ment of farming lands. FIRST LOCOMOTIVE. There is now being exhibited ' by Tangyes, Limited, at 35 Queen Vic- toria street, London, an historical relic of the greatest interest and im- portance—no less than the first loco- motive ever made and run in Eng- land. It was invented and construct- ed by Williain Murdock, the well- known assistant to James Watt, who, second only in importance to Watt himself, invented numerous de- vices in connection with steam en- gines. Prom the Bulletin, Bridgewater, N. S. We suppose there is not a corner In this wide Dominion in• which will not be found people who have been restored to health and st2eingth through the use of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. There are many such cases here in Bridgewater and its vicinity, and we are this week given permission to record one for the ben- efit of similar sufferers. The case Is wolf known in this vicinity and the tenacity of the disorder Was re- markable. For six years Alfred Vei- not, a surveyor of lumber for the. great lumber firm of Davison do Sons, Was a victim of a serious dis- order of the stomach. His soler Ings were excruciating and he had wasted to a shadow. Doctors pre- scribed for him, yet the agonizing pales remained. Many .remedies sere tried but to no avail. The rase was diagnosed as catarrh of the stomach, food became distaste- ful, life a burden. The trouble went on for nearly six years, then a good tOamaritan advised the use of Dr, Williams' Pink Pills, The pills were •given. a We, patient 'trial, arr. Vet - not using about a dozen boxes, and before they were all gone a perman- •nt cure was effected. Mr. Veinot is sow able to attend to his business when it looked as if he was doomed to die. He is grateful to this great medicine for 1115 cure and has no hesitation in saying so. Because of their thorough and prompt action en the blood and nerves these pills speedily cure anae- mia, rheumatism, sciatica, partial paralysis, St. Vitus' dance, scrofula end eruptions of the skin, .erysipelas, kidney and liver troubles, and the functional aliments which make, the lives of so many women a source of constant misery.

Help Little Babies and Big Child- ren in hildrenin All Their Minor Illnesses. When your child — whether it is a big child or little baby — suffers from stomach or bowel troubles oe any Mud, la nervous, fidgety or cross and doesn't sleep well, give Baby's Own Tablets. This medicine is the quickebt and surest cure—and the safest, because it contains 110 opiate or harmful drug. No matter how young or how feeble your little one is the Tablets can be given with a certainty that the result will be good. For very young it:fonts crush the Tablets to a powder. Mrs. Geo. W. sorter, Thorold, Ont„ says: "My baby had . indigestion badly when he was about three months old. Ifs was constantly hungry arid his fowl did him no good as he vomited it as soon as he took it. Ile was very thin and pale and got but little sleep, as he cried nearly all the time, both day and night. He was constipated; his tongue coated and his breath bad. Noth- ing didhim any good until I got Baby's Own Tablets, and after gtv= ing hilts these a short time the be- gan to get better. His food digest- ed properly; his bowels became re- gular, he began to grow, and is now a big, healthy boy. I always keep the Tabletq on hand and recommend them to other mothers." The Tablets can be obteirecl at Nurses' Experience, Medical men say that, a good nurse in a difficult ease is better than me- dicine, but when we' can,get a good nurse and good medicine, the pa- tient stands a much better chance of recovery. The few words of advice given below by. nurse. Eliza Bing, are well worthy the attention of all readers: "I have constantly used St. Ja- cobs Oil in the various sitilations I have occupied as nurse, and Have in- variably found it excellent in all cases requiring .outward application, such as sprains, bruises, rheumatic affections, neuralgia, etc. In cases of pleurisy it is an excellent remedy —well ,rubbed in. I .can strongly re- commend itafter several years' use and experience. It should be in ev- ery household" Sister Carolina, St, Andrew's Hospital, writes: "I have found St. Jacobs Oil a most efficacious rem- edy in gout; also in sprains and bruises. Indeed, we cannot say too much in its praise, and our 'doctor is ordering it constantly." ----•f A BENEFIT TO FARMERS. The benefits that will undoubtedly result to farmers from the recent in- corporation ` of the ' International Harvest 001219011y which took over the business of the five leading har- vester manufacturers have probably not been considered by a large por- tion of the farming community. ' The economical necessity of a con- solidation of the interests of manu- facturers and those of their farmer customers must be apparent to any one who understands the present sit- uation. The increased and increasing cost of material, manufacturing and sell- ing—the latter in consequence of ex- treme and bitter competition be- tween manufacturers and their sever- al selling agents—has made tho busi- ness unprofitable. The two alternatives leftfor the manufacturers were either the in- creasing of the prices of machines or the reduction of the cost of manufac- ture and sales. The latter could on - y be accomplished by concentrating the business in one company, • As can readily, bo seen, the form- ing of the new company was not a stock -jobbing operation but a cen- tering of mutual Interests. There is no -watered stock; the capitalisa- tion f3 conservative and represented by actual and tangible assets. There is no stock offred to the public, it having all been subscribed andpaid by the manufacturers and their as- sociates.
