ADVANCES In MEDICAL SCIENCE.

In reviewing the medical and surgical
progress for the year 1877, the London Lam
Get notes the following: NJ. Paul Bert has
published an extensive work OH the effect OF
variations of pressure on the body, and he
shows that the observed effects of dimin-
ished pressure are exclusively due to a di-
minution in the tension of the oxygen in
the air, and consequent predisposition to
asphyxia; while, on the contrary, increase
Of pressure up. to three a%tmospheres occa-
sions more active intraorganic changes, and
when the pressure reaches five atmospheres
the oxidizing processes either cease or be-
come modified in such IL way as to become
inconsistent with the maintenance of life.
Guttman, Frickler and Oertmann have dem
onstrated that the absorption of oxygen is
independent OF the MECHANICAL acts Of rcspi-
ration. Richet has determined chat when
perfectly fresh the gastric juice contains on
ly mineral acids, but that after standing
some time a kind Of fermentation is set up
in which free orgapicacid is formed that ON
analysis proved to be Tactic acid. 1t is be-
lieyed to be beyond doubt that Tactic SIS we'll
as butyric and acetic acids are often intro
duced either into the stomach or are formed
iii 1t as a product of fermentation.
The most important progress in the de-
partment Of, pathology is that toward, the
establishment and diffusion of the opinion
that minute organisms are concerned in the
progress of acute infectious diseases. Chau-
reau has shown that the horse is peculiarly
receptive OF the vaccine. virus, and is capa-
bile of reproducing it in. remarkable purity
and force.

LONDON

London is the greatest city the. world ev-
er saw. Babylon, Thebes, Rome were>nev-
er so populous, while the largest city of In
Ola at the present time, contains less than a
million inhabitants. Within the borders of
the metropolitan and police districts, a cir
Gle of fifteen, miles, it is computed there are
at the present time upwards of four million
persons. London is three times more popu-
lous than st. Petersburg, twice as populous
as Constantinople, with %two,thirds more
people in it than Paris, and one-fpurth more
than even the hiving multitudes of Pekin.
All Scotland but equals it in the number of
its people, and half as many Yorkshiremen
again as are numbered in their own, county
could find accommodation within its circle.
Every eight minutes of every day of every
year a soul goes out Of London, and in ev-
cry five minutes of every day a new immor-
tai enters upon this scene of its probation.
1t is at once the. court, the seat Of govern
ment, the center OF fashion, the home of all
the charities, and the general rendezvous OF
criminal and desperate characters of the
United Kingdom.

Currant Cultivation.

The old red curnnt in the bush form. is
good enough if it is well taken care Of The
bushes grow as thick as ones finger. and as
high as ones head, with dressing of manure
every fan or winter. We are apt to set currant
bushes next the garden fence, to save land, and
then let the grass-dog grass, like enough
creep under the fence and swamp the curTants
Agood thrusth hoe is awonderful tool for punch
ing the grass and weeds out of such cramped
places. With long handle the workman can
stand off six feet from the bushes and see ex-
actly what he is about by looking under them.
Currant bushes want thinning regularly, too.
The messy old stalks should be cut away, so
ms TO give the young growth a chance. Mulch
ing with any rough vegetable matter is of use,
especially where the subsoil is porous one.
Four feet apart is near enough to plant on
any soil, if the land is at all likely to suffer
with drouth, six feet is better distance.
Currants, TO be good, must be juicy, and they
can't be that if moisture fails. Since insects
have attacked the currant they have become
worth looking after. The currant worm is as
good as protective tariff upon this branch of
fruit culture. People who ought to know say
white hellebore is sure remedy if applied
just as the worms begin to work. That i'm
plies watchfulness and care, but half the bat
tie with insects consists in securing vigorous
roots that will push lusty growth of wood
and foliage. The cheapest way to clean de
crepit old currant row is to lift it bodily, part
the punches, and plant in new place.

Josiah Hopes, in the New York Tribune,
gives the following as the proper plan for
preparing bed for the lily. Excavate the
soil eight inches in depth, and after filing in
the bottom with about six inches of small
stones for drainage, sprinkle over these some
coarse leaves, and fill up the bed with old rot
ted sods from the fence corners or other spots
rich in decayed vegetable matter and raising
the bed few inches above the surrounding
surface. For winter treatment he recon-
mends the following course Give the sur
face thick coat of rotted cow-dung and rake
it off in the spring as soon as the young plants
appear. He claims mot without a large
amount of practical experienced that manure
should never come directly in contact with the
roots, but that an occasional watering with
weak liquid manure will prove advantageous.
The stems should be securely fastened to
stakes, not only to prevent the breaking the
stem but also to save the roots, which are in
jured by any motion of the stem. As an in
centive to the propagation of this flower the
London Garden gives an account of two plants
of the LiGum gigdHteuDi, that measured
twelve feet nine inches high, each carrying
thirteen noble flowers fully Expanded. The
leaves of this species are often foot wide
the flowers are five inches long white, tinged
with purple inside and green outside 1t
comes from the region of the Himalayas.

Many farmers mistakenly suppose that the
products Of the garden are Injuries which
they cannot AFFORD to enjoy, or TO supply to
their families They do not seem to be aware
that fruits and vegetables are more profitable
in feeding their households than anything
else they can raise. They save the purchase
of many things at the grocer's They lessen
the necessity of so heavy a supply Of costly
meats They diminish the consumption of
that expensive material, butter. With some
the whole catalogue of garden vegetables con-
ssts Of potatoes and cabbages. Sometimes
they add a few turnips. and more rarely pars-
nips for only few weeks, for not taking
proper care Of them, they soon wilt and dry,
and become of little value. They might rs
well have asparagus in early Spring, spinach,
radishes. vegetable oysters, parsnips, beets of
two or three sorts, early and late, celery. caul-
flower, broccoli, Savoy as well as drum-head
cabbage, Summer and Winter squashes and
many other vegetables most of them easy
in growth rs the few on the limited catalogue
which they now have. They may add the
small fruits with little trouble and have two
or three quarts of delicious strawberries on
their tables daily for several weeks during the
early part of Summer, followed with an equal
supply Of raspberries afterwards Their mca-
ger crop of currants might be changed to
abundance and large size by care and cultiya-
ton. Grapes, one of the most wholesome Of
all fruits, may he had through the entire
months Of Autumn and half Of Winter, enough
for any common family from quartcr-acre
vineyard. Country Gentleman.

In the setting out of shade and ornamental
trees, as well as of fruit trees, there is great
loss in not doing it in thorough manner
All trees, when transplanted, should have all
the fibrous roots remaining that we possibly
can secure, and unhurt set in the hole These
should be carefully placed and covered with
the fine earth, so that there may be no air
spaces left, but all should be thoroughly i'm
bedded in the soil. To secure this it is a
good plan, when the roots are all covered. to
pour on pailsful Of water before filling up the
hole even with the surface But above ALL
dig large and deep hole and be sure that it
is well fi''ed with good earth below and be
yond the circumference of the tree roots. We
have before us now some maple trees, some
Of which were placed in holes thus prepared
and others where, although the work was
done sufficiently well otherwise, this direction
was not carried out. 1t is surprising to note
the difference in the growth of three years
between the trees thus planted The small
expense of the extra preparation is more than
repaid in the results. In trnnsplantng trees.
vines or shrubs, carelessness in the work new
er pays, and it is far preferable to do the job
too well, if such thing were possible, than
to err even in the slightest in the other direc-
ton. There is seldom any satisfaction gain
ed in watching the growth of a poorly trans
planted tree, but when transplanted in the
best way, it is one of the pleasures Of country
life to watch the success which always follows
our best efforts. Scientific Farmer.
Vermont phÅ“nix. [volume] (Brattleboro, Vt.) 1834-1955, 1878-04-19

To plant with the best success. the land
must be made mellow and fine at least eigh-
teen inches deep; never plant when the soil
will not crumble upon being spaded or plow-
ed. The hole should be made larger than the
spread of the roots, and the surface soil work
ed in about them, and pressed firmly with the
foot. The latter point is one of the utmost
importance, and yet it receives but little at
tention. Unfermented manure should never
be worked in close to the roots. All manures
are better applied upon the surface If the
soil is moist ut the time of planting, no water
should be used, as it would do more harm
than good. Trees in the best condition for
planting are those grown near the house and
If purchasers can visit the nursery and select
them before being dug, they will be well re-
paid for their trouble. Plant only those va
rieties that are recommended by successful
fruit growers, unless one can afford to make
experiments half dozen varieties of any
kind of fruit are desirable for home use.
while for market less number might be most
profitable. Young, well-grown trees are bet
ter than old ones as they cost less and are not
so much checked by transplanting.
