I have suffered with Neuralgia in my head
since my earliest recollection. At times, nv
temples would swell, and I would be nearly
distracted with pain, = never able to go out n
the cold or wind without suffering for days af-
terward with my head. Several weeks since,
commenced taking your Rheumatic and Men,
ralgia Remedy, and before taking the contents
of one bottle, found relief, have suffered no
pain since, and have been able to go out in the
coolest weather without having the pain return.
hope all who have suffered from the same dis
ease will not fail to try this great Remedy.

Root Pruning.


The experiments were made on the apple
and pear. An apple tree eight or ten years
old which had sc arcey any fruit buds, has
done best when half the roots were cut in
one season. and half three years later, by
going half way round on op ,osite sides in
one year, and finish at the next pruning
working two feet underneath to sever do Wn-
ward roots. 1t has always answered well,
also, to cut on such trees all the larger and
longer roots about two and halt feet from
the stem, leaving the smaller and weaker
ones longer, and going half way ar und as
already stated. The operation was repea ed
three or four years later by extending the
cut foot or two further away from the
tree. BY this operation unproductive fruit
trees become completely studded with fruit
spurs and afterwards bore profusely. This
shortening of the roots has been continued
in these experiments for twenty years with
much success, the circle of roots remaining
greatly circumscribed. The best time for
the work has been found to be in The latter
part of August and beginning of September,
when growth has nearly ceased and while
the leaves are yet on the trees, causi
greater Incl ease of bloom buds the following
year than when performed after the leaves
have fallen.-London Garden. i
