spring Medicine,

Why does everybody take spring med'
cine? For three good reasons, viz, |. BE
cause one bottle of blood purifier taken at
this seaeon will do more good than two AT
any other. 2 Because the blood IS in more
impure condition than at any other season.
5. because the system IS SO weakened by
this impure state OF the blood that it mas not
sufficient vitality to withstand the deoiiitat-

common consent, people seek relief in medi.

rilla commeuds it to our judgment as good

BAD Prospects for Wheat IN Great Britain
tFrom -he Lcndon Telegraph

It is stated by y trustworthy authority
that there has never been worse prospect
for the wheat crop in these islands at this
season of the year than there is at present.
The very serious consequences involved in
this anticipation can hardly be overes,ima
ted. There is no branch OF British trade,
enterprise and commerce, no department
of our social life upon which agricultural
depression does not exercise powerful, II
not paramount, influence. Every industry
IN the country IS affected directly or indi-
rectly by the we!l-being or the reverse OF
the landed and farming interest ana TO the
seven more or less unfavorab!e harvests
which we have had since 1876, inclusive OF
that year, it appears more than probable
At this moMent that au eighth Is about TO
be added. The stars in their courses have,
in fact fought against the British farmer
for so many seasons that not few are be-
ginning to give up Ill nope One OF the
most sagaCious land agents in the West OF
England has lately written that rents IN
this neighborh0od have now settled down
finally ut q reduction OF from 10 TO 20 per
cent. ana do not think there is any gen
eral discomfort on that head; but the con-
slant wet takes away what chance farmers
may have Of growing oats and barley at
profit from deficiency of yield and eXpen-
ses of harvesting At shllllngs bushel
wheat, of course, will not pay. Unless
however. we are soon TO have the blessing
of dry spring and hot summer once more
| do not see a future either for tenants or
landlords" Unpleasant and discouraglng
a. the prospect may, it cannot be ignored
Indeed, the signs of the times were the
subject of such general and alarmed con
ycrsation IN Mark Lane and other sgricul
tural haunts and markets on Saturday last
that it were vain to prophecy smooth
things, or, In Sir Richard SteGlc's words
ITO play upon the Lutte when we ought &c
be blowing the alarm trumpet" The pro
portion OF land sown thus far in wheat
was probably not more than two.thlrds o.
the usual acreage devoted down to the enc
of January 10 that cereal in these islands
Since then the weather has been so per
sistently wet that the planting Of whca
has been almost entirely checked, and
will soon be 100 late for farmers 10 feel any
inclination TO SOW II at all, except In thos'
comparatively few districts where sprint

A Word for the English Sparrow

II il possible that much OF what - said
against the English sparrow is based more
upon prejudice than upon observation, and
it is only just to this greatly condemned
bird that when word IL SAID IN its favor
il should have a wide hearing. Such a
word is said by the Germantown Telegraph,
and results from close observation. The
writer of an article in that paper says that
the birds are daily before him upon his
premises, whereon he raises all kinds OF
fruit and vegetables. They have been care
fully observed and their behavior has been
noted at all times and under all circum-
stances, the conclusion drawn being that
they are the most efficient and valuable IN
secliverous birds on the premises, and
though unless fed IN the spring with yege-
table otial they will eat the early spinach
and lettuce and the first tender leaves OF
fruit trees they do not eat to an extent 10
cause material damage. They eat no fruit
OF any kind. When insects appear in the
spring, up to June or August, they appear
to be unrcmitting in feeding upon them
and the pear crop IN the premises in ques
ton has never been 90 free from the at
tacks OF its enemies generally as since the
spsrrows have been there. Though pug
nacious among themselves they do moi
drive away other birds, rs is proved by the
fact that on the premises in question there
arc more robins than ever and as many
cat birds and wrens. Then the sparrow
can be used for food as it becomes
very fat. and the writer from whom
we are quoting suggests that they shoue
be allowed 10 be shot for food. "a their IN
crease is So rapid that there would Away
| be an ample supply.
