The Nutrition OF Rooty.

For long time the absorbing power
was supposed to be localized in Il spC-
oial organ ut the end of the root. But
this has been dlsproved, rs the vcgeta-
bic &C no situated there is covered with
skin that possesses little or no power
OF absorption. The maximum Of alb
sorp;1on takes place directly above this
cone, In part of the root covered with
peculiar hbcrs. In ascending the root
these hbers gradually diminish and
disappear, and higher still the skin it.
self Is exfoliated, ana Is replaced by n
new tegument that grows less and less
permeablc with age. Both the anatomy
OF the plant and experiment prove that
the absorbing power diminishcs from
the point to tho base Of the root. The
suDterrcaneous nutrltive fluid Of tho
SOIL Is always very poor in plant build
ing substance, Of which 1T only contains
from few thousandths to 1t hundrcdth
OF It's own weight. The plant soon ex-
hausts the small amount of soluble
matter contained in arabic land, but
this matter is daily removed by the
chemical action OF sunlight, and the
various natural agents cause a sort of
digestion to take place in the soil, con-
verting insoluble into soluble bodies.
The fertility of the soil is not shown by
the amount of nutritivo matter that It
can dissolve at gwen moment In
water, but by tho amount of matter it
contains that with time will become
soluable. We should, therefore, re-
member in applying liquid fertilizers
that they should be largely diluted if
we would initiate the natural condi-
lions of vegetation. All roots possess
an elective power Of absorption, AZ
they will only absorb those substances
that are suitable to nourish them. and
reject all others. Each plant. 80 TO
speak, follows a diet nppr ropriato to its
own organization and character. and
generally when tho soil does not con .
tain the necessary elements the plant,
instead Of adopting its chomlcal condi-
ton to that of the soil, will suffer and
prematurely die.

AGRICULTURE.

ORCHARD ON The FARM.-fn my es-
timation the orchard is one of the most
In portant diyisions Of the farm, as 1t
supplies the farmers family with q
healthful and delicious diet, and when
properly cared for, is q eource of con-
siderable income besides. 1t should be
of sufficient size to embrace not only
apples, which are the standard fruit.
but also pears, peaches, plums and
cherries. The cultivation of trees Is a
source Of great enjoyment to tho lover
of nature, and when 1t can be made a
source Of profit, as Is the case with
fruit trees, double purpose is served.
/ know OF many farms that have been
cleared from twenty five TO fifty years,
and yet no orchard has been set on
ting few trees annually, whether he
be old or eyoung, and, If any chance
seedlings como up in some out of the
way place, as is often the case let them
grow, and graft them, or give thcm to
the boys 80 graft and take care Of for
their own.
Grating is very simple operation,
and also one that Is very interesting,
and every orchardist should be able to
perform 1t. l learned to graft when a
boy, by seeing one tree grated, and
then l made some tools, and many
trees OH the farm now show tho result
of my experimenting, which was very
successful; and although the farm has
passed out Of the family, those trees
possess much interest to me. l wish
that next spring every farm boy who
reads this, would interest himself in
grating, for believe it would endcar
tho old homestead to him. In selecting
varieties, l would set only few of the
most popular-not over half a dozen
varieties-but for family use 1t should
be the aim in the husbandman to have
a supply nearly the year round. Where
fow varieties are grown for market,
they can be disposed Of to better ad-
vantage than when numerous small
lots arc on hand. In setting out trees,
or In grating, care should bo taken to
have each variety In a certain part Of
tho orchard, rs it is much handler,
when gathering tho apples, to have
them separate, than to have them all
mixed up. Orcharding requires some
system, and 1t pays In all farming op-
eratiOns.

not on board, as the latter absorbs
the juices wastcfully. Have the pro-

proper soup basin or bowl, aid as you
cut up the meat sprinkle It moderately
with salt, and throw iC into the cold
water. There let it remain for two
hours; then put 1t all into q saucepan
and set 1t on the fire. Watch carefully
the first rising, and skim and secure
this; 1t is the very essence OF the beef
being thrown out. Put it In a elem

A sanitary assurance association has

A sanitary assurance association has
been formed in the city Of London
under the presidency OF an en- m'nent
physician, tho design Of which Is 20
unite the professions Of medicine and
architecture to secure the thorough
supervision of sanitary arrangements
and drainage In the houses Of the me-
t. opolis. Assuming that defective drain
age Is grent enemy to public health,
and that there is a terrible absence of
all supervision Of sanitary arrange
ments, the ASSOCIATION will mnke u
careful investigation of the health con-
ditions OF houses and give certificates
to those that are in perfect sanitary
order. This will be of most imperta
service to tho public, because people
generally are incompetent to determine
what houses are healthy and what are
unhealthy. If this association achieves
the success it promises there Is no
doubt that kindred institutions will
spring up In a large number of other
cities, for it Is certainly as necessary
to be assured against pr eventable dis
eases as it Is to be assured against fire.
