REMEDIES FOR TREES.
Popular Notions Based Neither on Natur
Nor Common Sense.

Popular Notions Based Neither on Nature
| Nor Common Sense.
Vegetable life is less understood by
the public than that of animals and
men. 1t is no wonder, therefore, that
quacks abound who prescribe their
nostrums as sagely as if they really
knew something. One of the most
common notions of these fellows is to
bore holes into the trees, and, after
inserting sulphur or some other COM
pound, plug it up, relying on the how-
ing sap to take it into the circulation.
AS we'll open mans veins and inject
medicines into them. Trees have roots
which are their mouths. and any thing
that is good for them placed in the
soil anywhere near, these roots will
find. Repulsive and even dangerous
medicines may be forced down the
throat of animal or man, but we know
no way in which tree or plant can be
forced to take any thing that is not for
its good. Its instinct as to that is
never at fault.
There can be no doubt that coal
ashes spread under fruit trees are
often very helpful, and as they show
little or no manurial value, there is
often difficulty in explaining their good
effects. One way they help is to make
a mulch. Coal ashes are light, and
the fact that they have not much
manurial value makes them all the
better for keeping down grass, which
depletes the soil of the moisture that
the trees need. Three or four inches
depth of coal ashes spread under trees
keep the soil beneath moist and cool.
II they are spread on sod they kill the
grass, and this with the decaying sod
roots make fine feeding-place for the
roots of the trees. 1t is probable, also,
that under this mulch the soil itself |

DANGER EVERY WHERE.
Eternal Vigilance tho Price of Life, Hen1ti
and Happiness.


Danger is made to surround every
thing nowadays. The germ theory has
peopled space, air, water and food with
micro-organisms that threaten death
or disease on every hand. II person
were weighed down with a sense OF
these dangers, as he might we'll be II
he gave full heed to the warnings OF
physicians, he might well exclaim,
"Oh! me miserable! whittier shall
fyP" And he could hardly fly to q
place where the microscopic germs of
death would not be present with some
warning physician.
We go to bed and behold! there is
death in the pillow. A medical journal
bids us take note of the fact that lis
ease and death lurk in the very pill
lows and holsters on which we lay our
heads. Whether this is SO or not, the
moral that is drawn from il is good,
and that is, "bedding ought to be
opened periodically, so that its con-
tents may bebeaten with sticks" In
France bed cleansing is followed as
regular trade.
Then again, the hiring of clothes is
dangerous. In cities il has become an
everyday matter to hire wearing APP
parel, particularly dress suits, and
these suits are worn by men of all
sorts, of all associations, and possibly
by men who have some infectious dis
ease. If the wearer h'ls not such
disease, the clothing may be worn in
place or among people where disease
germs will be taken away in the meshes
ofthe cloth. Costumes for masquerades
and theatricals are worse yet, for they
are more especially worn by the lowest
as well as by the highest, by the vicious
and depraved as well as by the decent
and respectable; and these costumes
are rarely or never washed and are
used until they are worn out.
Books, too, are dangerous. Rub the
finger over clean sheet, and thin
streak of dirt, perspiration and skin
cells is the result Once reading
volume through leaves minute de-
posit on every page touched, from
from title page to finish. Sick people
leave germs of their diseases. BY de.
grees the hollows fill up. the oil of the
skin tinges the pages and the book be-
comes dirty. Under the microscope
this detritus is heterogeneous, loose,
moist and decaying. One germ intro
duced into it will breed and produce
millions of bacteria and these will live
for unlimited time in the rich soil that
has been gathered from hundred
hands. 1t is soil for the germs of
scarlet fever, smallpox and various
blood diseases. Cleanliness is not only
next to Godliness but it is next to life |
and health, and though the germ scare
may be overdone, yet it will produce
good results in the hands of intelli-
gent people. Housekeeping.
