Effects Of Removing M fountain For.

EMeetn Oh ktemOVhnB N fountain Forests.
Attention has long been given to devising
means to limit the ravages of these torrents,
which ruin the land, threaten estates, destroy
roads, and sometimes even compromise the
existence of villages Walls have been built
along the banks to protect them, or across the
streams to allay the force of the waters The
most efficacious means, however, as yet dis
covered, has been to maintain the woods on
the slopes of the mountain. The effect of
cutting away the trees in promoting the form
alton of torrents has not been doubted by the
inhabitants of mountainous regions, and is
clearly set forth by M. Surrell who says
when we examine the tracts in the midst of
which torrents of recent origin have been
formed, we perceive that they have in all
cases been despoiled of their trees and bush
es. IT, on the other hand, we examine hills
whose sides have been recently stripped of
wood, we observe that they are cut up by
numerous torrents, which have been formed
very lately. Here is a remarkable double
fact wherever there are recent torrents
there are no longer forests and wherever the
ground is cleared these torrents are formed ;
and the same eyes that see the woods fall on
the declivity of a mountain, may see appear
there Immediately multitude of torrents"
The disastrous consequences of removing
the woods from the Alps began to attract at
tentlon In the last century, and have since
been discussed in many publications and Of
fetal reports. In 1853 the project of the de-
partment of the Lower Alps said in a report
to the Minister; "If prompt and energetic
measures are not taken, it will be almost pos
sible to designate the precise moment when
the French Alps will become a desert. The
period from 1851 to 1853 will produce a new
diminution in the number of the population.
In 1862 the Minister will remark a oontin.
uous and progressive reduction in the number
of hectares devoted to agriculture each year
will aggrayate the evil, and in a half-century
France win count more ruins and one depart
ment less" The departments of the Upper
and Lower Alps actually lost thirty thousand
inhabitants, or one-ninth of their population
between 1851 and 1876. law for recover

Only few weeks ago the farmers in some
sections of the West were anxious to sell of
their horses and cattle, fearing that they
would not be able to winter them on account
of expected short crops. Now, however,
they find an improvement in the pasturage
for which they did not look, and the corn
crop is turning out unexpectedly good. The
yield of oats is very large, and will go far
toward making good any deficit in the corr
crop, while the abnormally high price of the
latter commodity will enable the farmers to
market any surplus at greater profit than

Although the fences in an agricultural
community are the most onerous tax which
the farmer has TO bear, and the subject has
attracted the attention Of agricultural socie-
ties and journals and the public press gener-
ally, no systematic effort has been made un-
ill the census now in process of compilation,
to reach actual data as to their cost. In the

An instance showing the length of time
that corn may be kept without losing its pow
er of termination, is given by a Randolph cor
respondent of the Vermont Farmer. Capt.
A. E. Leavenworth brought few ears of
corn from Virginia at the close of the war
Last spring little nephew of the Captains
found few kernels of it, that had been acct
dentaly scattered in his uncle's cabinet, and
planted them. The seeds came up and corn
ten feet high was grown from them.

Nervous Irritaby, scatica, and all painful Nervous
Diseases.-A treatise by well-known physician,
specialist these subjects, concludes as foows;-
Neuralgia is Of the most painful Of diseases and
is attended with less nervous irritation Sci
atca Is also a form OF neuralgia, and all painful

nerve ache and therefore you suffer with neural

l have for many years closely studied the cause Of
neuralgia and the nature Of the system, with
the many diseases that II Is subject to- and have found
by actual experience that the true and primary
OF neuralgia Is poverty Of the nervous fluid. II be-
comes impoverished and poor, and In some cases
starved not because the patient does not eat but be-
what s eaten is not appropriated TO the nervous
system. There are many causes for this, but DR.. C.
