may well welcome the change of
its use from our beautiful green
tinted Wallpapers, where its pois-
onous cxhalations have long gen
dcrcd disease and death, to the
richer green of our potato-ficlds.
The two methods which have
been tried at the college, with the
best success as to economy, arc
either to mix the green with water,
hcaping tablespoon full to ten
quarts of the fluid, and sprinkle on
with common sprinkler or an old
broom; or to mix the green with
-four in the proportion of one part
of green to six of -four, sifted on
when there is no dew on the vines,
either through a muslin bag sus-
pended to convenient handle,
that it may be carried and shaken
over the vines, the person making
the application walking upright, or
with pail, the bottom being of fine
wire cause or finely perforated tin.
Where these methods are used the
the whole expense per acre, for both
material and cost ofapplication, will
not exceed s. for the season.
The advantages ofthc water mix

careless, and rapidity ofapplication,

[For the nisnat,ch,.I


The views expressed In the card about
doctors that appeared this morning meet
with my approval in many respects, except
that portion that relates to the young physi.
ciaD. / consider that unjust discrimination
that would tend to laud the older members
OF the profession to the de,riment of the
younger.
The writer forgets himself, I am sure,
when he expresses dissatisfaction with our
tariff because 1t does not contain charges to
be made by old and young doctors.
Again, who is 10 decide upon the Qualifi.
cations of the two extremes of age and the
intermediate classes It has rather the ap-
pearanee OF jealousy for che older physician
to ask for higher charges because he has had
years of experience. rs
During fifteen years Of active practice
can bear testimony to the fact that have
met with more than one instance Ia which
better judgment and more successful treat.
ment OF disease was displayed by young men
of the profession than By many of the older
ones.
Our tariff is liberal one, aud can be made
to conform to the various pecuniary classes
by the conscientious physician. I really
hope the young physician will not be abashed
by the expressions in The card alluded to,
but will feel it bis privilege as well as bis
duty to charge the same as Older doctors.

The Doctors-AgafIs.
FLOR the Dispatch.

Your correspondent in Thursdays paper,
in defence of the doctors, does not touch
upon the point at issue. which is this: Are
their services worth twice as much as they
were before the war? Unless they can prove
that they are, they are, we think, fairly open
to the charge Of extortion for charging twice
as much as they did then, especially as they
compel all of their brethren, however DIS.
posed to return to old prices, 10 MAINTAIN
present excessive rates under pain OF eXclu'
sion from recognition, both professionally
and socially.
Before the war the doctors studied as hard,
worked as hard, led as irregular lives. being
able to call no time their own, did as much
gratuitous practice as the doctors OF the
present day, and were fully their peers In
every res pect; yet the profession to-day
charges % where they charged 81, charges
$40 where they charged $50, and when they
come to surgical cases the disparity is be-
lieyed to be even greater. And our doctors
are not only getting twice as much for the
same services US they were before the war,
but they are wringing this remuneration
from a community which Is notoriousiy
poorer by many degrees than it was then.
Even people ordinarily in good c!rcum.
stances are now very much Strengthened. ana
for the doctors to combine to compel the
present high rates is felt by many to be an
offence against good morals, and is acknow.
'ledeed by some Of the profession to De
wrong.
The effect of present rates is in numoer!ess
instances TO make men who are not willing
to be the recipients of gratuitous practice
lead continual struggle with poverty, and
in numberless other instances to make them
lose their self.respeet through fnding doc
