The Effect of CamphOr ON seeds-C"fio"s
Experiments.

Some curious and all but forgotten expert
ments. of much interest to agriculture and
gardening. observes London paper, have
lately been revived by German sayant.
Very many years ago it was discovered and
recorded that water saturated with camphor
had a remarkable infuenbe upon the gernl-
nation of seeds. Like many another useful
hint. the stupid world took no notice of this
intimaton; but Berlin professor came across
the record of it, and he appears to have es-
tabshed the fact that solution of camphor
stimulates vegetables as alcohol does animals.
He took seeds in various sorts OF pulse, some
of the tamples being three or four years old,
old and therefore possessing very slight
degree of vitality. He divided these par
GELS, placing one moety OF them between
sheets of blotting paper simply wetted,
and the other under strictly similar
conditions between sheets soaked in the
camphorated water. In many cases the
seeds did not swell at all under the influence
of the simple moisture, but in every case they
terminated where they were subjected to the
camphor solution. The experiment was eX-
tended to different kinds of garden seeds, old
and new, and always with the same result of
showing a singular awakening OF dormant Vi
talism and wonderful quckenng OF growth.
IL also appears from the Professors research
es that the young plants thus set shooting
continued to increase WIN VlSOr ana VlVacl-
ty much beyond that of those which were not
so treated. On the other hand, when
pounded camphor was mixed with the soil, it
appeared to exercise rather bad effect up
on Seeds The dose il this latter case was
possibly too strong. AT all events, there is
here a line of inquiry well worth following
up by seedsmen and gardeners; and even far
mers might try how far wheat and barley
would profit from the strange property which
seems to be possessed by this drug over the
latent life of vegetable germs.

Eggs as Diet

The following extract is from the Poultry
ReUiep:
Would it not be wise to substitute more
eggs tor meat in our daily diet? About one
third of the weight of an egg is solid nutri-
ment. This is more than can be said of meat.
There are no bones or tough pieces that have
to be laid aside. A good egg is made up of
10 parts shell, 60 parts white, and 80 parts
yolk. The white of an egg contains SO per
cent. water, the yol1 81 per cent. The aver
age weight of an egg is about two ounces.
Practically an egg is animal food, and yet
there is none of the disagreeabe work of the
butcher necessary to obtain it. The vegeta-
rans of England use eggs freely and many of
these men are so and 80 years old, and have
been remarkably free from illness. Eggs are
best when cooked four minutes. This takes
away the animal taste that is offensive to
some, but does not SO harden the white or
yolk as to make them hard to digest. An egg
If cooked very hard is difficult of digestion,
except by those with stout stomachs; such
eggs should be eaten with bread and masti-
Gated very finely. An egg spread on toast is
food fit for king, il kings deserve any better
food than anybody else, which is doubtful.
Fried egg are less wholesome than boiled
once. An egg dropped into hot water is not
only clean and handsome, but delicious
morsel. Most people spoil the taste of their
eggs by adding pepper and salt A little
sweet butter is the best dressing. Eggs con-
tain much phosphorus, which is supposed to
be useful to those who use their brains much.

sulphate OfHron and yepeta,ion.

M. Girls has made experiments on the infu-
ence of sulphate of iron on vegetation. and
comes to these conclusions; That the salt is a
stimulating manure; that it presents no dan
ger when intelligently applied; that its action
is evident upon the coloring principle ofleaves /;
that, from its cheapness, few cents worth
is sufficient to treat hundreds of plants, that
it might be applied TO cultivation on a large
scale, and especially to the cultivation of
fruit. His manper of applying the sulphate
is as follows: A solution of two dracbms to
one quart of water is made, and with this the
plants, previously placed in the shade, are
watered. 1t is presumed that the earth, sur
rounding the plant is moist; if this is not the
case, more dilute solution must be used.
The solution may be applied daily for five or
six days. About two and half ounces are
sufficient for each watering of an ordinary
sized plant.

VALUABLE INFORMATION.

BOSTON, Dec. ~, 1869.
Gentlemen-My only object in giving you this tes-
timony is to spread valuable information. Having
been badly afflicted with Salt Rheum, and the whole
eruptions. many of which 4aused me great pain and
annoyance, and knowing it to be blood disease, l
took many of the advertised blood preparations,
among which was any quantity of Sarsaparila, with
out obtaining any benefit until commenced taking
the vEGETINE, and before had completed the first
bottle saw that had got the right medicine. Con-
sequently, followed on with it until L had taken
seven bottles, when was pronounced well man and
my skin is smooth and entirely free from Pimpes and
eruptions have enjoyed good health before,
and attribute it all to the of VEGETINE. To
benefit those afflicted with Rheumatism, will make
mention also of the VEGETINE's wonderful power of
curing me of this acute complaint, of which l have
suffered so intensely.
