Poor 'digestion and. assimila- tem means tenure to derive Tun nourishment from food and' that in turn often means in. roverished blood, weakness, enemia, etc. Poor elimination means an accumulation of waste matter which poisons the body, lowers -vitality, decreases the' power of re- Alstance to disease arid leade to the development of many serious ills. Idieumatisrn,—due to some interfer- ence witit the process of elimination, failure to get rid of certain, body polsons,—cannot be expected ter yield to any medicine that fails to correct the condition responsible for it.

These drains often prevent the gullying out or Lite Washing away of soil and sou fertility. Good surface drains will lessen . ▪ considerably the amount of winter = wheat "drowned out" or "winter killed." These injurious effects are largely caused through water stand- ing on trozen wheat ground in the spring. Were this water removed by _.1 surface drains, tile reason for heav- ing so erten seen in wheat fields in the early spring would be largely moneyed. These drains are a benefit, 4 too, in that the removal of surface water enabit s the land to warm tip - - more 'quiekle, end the plants to start growth earlier in the spring, Surface. drains should • follow the natural low levels in the wheat field and be made before the season closes in the full. They 11.1.0 easily run out With the ordinary tong or the swivel plough, and generally do not require to be more than one furrow wide and one furrow deep, Where there is considerable slope in the aeld and consequently greater danger of land being gained out, care should be talt- eu that dyable are not made too ner- row. The roundine•°of the edges at the top and of the bottom of surface drains will facilitate the dew of water by removing danger of blocking from loose pieces 'of earth.

No other cause, not even winter - killing, has destroyed and is destroy- ing 80 many cherry and plum trees in this province as the Black Knot disease. This statement, -while true of the province as a whole, is not true of the Niagara District nor of any other district where plum and cherry trees are carefully pruned and sprayed each year. The disease is not caused hy grubs, although these are often found in the knots, but it is caused by a fun- gus which at leeks the branches and even the trunks of the trees and causes black, knot -like swellings, usually about three inches long and about half an inch in thiekness, though offen the -swellings are much shorter and often again very much longer, the longest ones usually be- ing found on the, larger branches. New knots at fast are brownish in- stead of black, the blackness coming with age. The disease will in some orchards coniine itself to cherry trees and not attack the plums. In other cases it will attack plums and not the cher- ries,' but More commonly both are attacked. Control Measures.—In order to control Black Knot thoroughly it Is helpful to know that it is spread by means of tiny spores which act as seeds, and' are blown by the wind from tree to tree. These spores are formed on the knots themselves. There are two main crops of them each year, the nest during early spring, usually in March and April, and the second in late spring, usually the latter part of May and all of June. Therefore, to control the dis- ease the first step to take is to cut down all dead and dying trees and remove all knots on other trees, cut- ting in each ease about four inches below the knot so as to be sure the infected area is removed. If knots occur on the very large branches or on the trunk, they may be removed by means of a chisel or a very stout knife and chisel. An .inch at least of the bark on each side should, if possible, be taken with the knots. All prunings, whether of dead or living 'wood, should be burned at mice, otherwise the spores will form on them and spread from them. It is very important to do this cutting out and pruning before Christmas time. Warm days after the leaves are off are excellent for the purpose. Under no honditions must the knots be left on the trees until as late as February. In Cutting do not overlook any wild cherries that may be infested around or neaf the Orchard. The next step is to spray the trees with either lime -sulphur wash or Bordeaux mixture, so that the spores that come from a distance in early or late spring ina.y not get a ehanee to germinate. Three sprayings should be given, the first a few days before the buds burst, the second about a week after blossoms fall and the third about two weeks later or Just before the earliest cherries begin to ripen. Arsenate of lead should be added to each or °the last two applications to kill the Plum Curculio and to keep the cherries free front rna.ggots. The iline-stilphur for the first . spray Should be in strength about one gal- lon to fifteen or twenty gallons of water, and for the second and third, one gallon to about forty gallons of water. Bordeaux for any application should be composed of four pounds blueetone and four pounds of fresh stone lime or six pounds of hydrated Mice to telly gallons of water. Th.0 arsenate of lead should be at the strength of two and a half pounds of the paste form to forty gallons of liquid or half this amount if the Powder form is used.

D. Ains- lie, Clark and Wellington streets, when their niece, Miss Alice Lawrence, became the wife of Mr. J. Benson Tyreman of Seaforth, The ceremonywas performed by the Rev. Dr. Medd of Chatham, uncle of the bride, assisted by Rev. A. W. Shep- herd, B. A, pastor of Knox Presbyterian Church. The bride was given away by her uncle, Mr. 3. D. Ainslie, Mrs. Medd playing the wedding march. Only a few of the immediate relatives of the bride were present. The rooms were prettily decorated with asters, cosmos, phlox, snapdragoons and roses. The bride wore a navy blue travelling suit. During the signing of the register, Mrs. Medd sang, "'love you truly." After the ceremony the company sat down to a dainty lunch, the table being beautifully decorated with flowers The presents were numerous and rich in value, showing the high esteem in which they -are held by a wide circle of friends. Not withstanding the careful planning on the part of the bride and the groom to escape the attention of friends who wished to honour them on their going away, they were given a veritable barrage of confetti, old slippers, etc. Es- caping they made their way to an auto ' in which they drove to Union to take the electric car, and there. they were joined by more friends with confetti and also at Kingsville. They left for a trip to De- Harnilton, Toronto and other points and will be at home to their friends after November 15th at Seaforth.
