DYSPEPSIA.


DYSPEPSIA. %
The London Magazine contains the follow
ing article, concerning the manner OF
treatingth this all important and fashionable
complaint which we heartily concur in,
and SO we suspect will all those who con-
slider an g ounce Of prevention worth a
pound Of cure.'
x4dvice to those scko haze Stomachs.--
We recommend to all anxious gentlemen
to !" live pleasant" and not to plague
themselves about their stomachs and their
hcalths, and gluttony, and abstinence. AS
surely as man thinks or talks about his
stomach, so surely viii it go wrong; and if
he doubts Of his good digestion he may as
well surrender the very chance oft. The
organs Of our body do not choose to be
thought about or talked about; and so GER
tainly as they are made subjects Of anxiety
and discussion, do they refuse to perform.
We cannot see what right man, or wo-
man either, being non-medicaL, has to
know that they even possess stomach;
and we are sure they would be more free
from its troubles il they would not trouble
themselves about it. 3

~ ON LINING SEED WHEAT.
BY James Meal, Of AHegany-Jan.26,
1926.
SrR,--In answer to your inquiry on
the subject of smut in wheat, will state
to you what has fallen under my observe
alton. ee
When resided in Seneca county several
years ago, my attention was particularly
drawn to this subject, by observing that
while myself and neighbour were much
injured by smut in our wheat the crops Of
Mr.. C. uniformly escaped. ] Inquired
into the. cause Of this singular exemption
and learnt that il was owing to the seed
having been lined. Z,
In 1916, therefore, / wlshed my seed,
put about three pints Of lime to each bushcl
mixed il well and let it lie in heap twelve
hours before sowing. My crop was per
fectly clean, while / can say an my neigh
boBrs had more or less smut.
In 1917, part Of my seed was washed
and lined, as in the preceding year; an
other part was washed and lined, and Q
pint Of salt to each bushel mixed with lime;
third parcel was washed in strong pickle
and lined; and fourth sown without any
preparation. The result was as follows |:
the first had a little smut ;the second none;
the third none and the fourth was q quar-
ter smut-all on the same kind ofland and
all sown in good weather, between the 5th
and 18th of September.
In 1919, Mr.. L. bought his seed Of my
neighbours, MIR. B. and Mr.. g. and OF
myself, and sowed without preparation
Mr.. G's crop was from seed had Of rae the
year before, and sowed without Inning
B. had never prepared his seed by any
process. II was found, on harvesting the
