THE BEST medical writer's claim that
the successful remedy for nasal catar-
rh must be nOn-irritating, easy OF ap-
plication, and one that will reach all
the remote sores and liberated surfa-
ces. The history OF the Efforts to
treat catarrh during the past obliges
us to admit that only one remedy has
met these conditions, and that is Elys
Cream Balm. This pleasant remedy
has mastered catarrh as nothing else
has ever done, and both physicians
and patients freely concede this fact:

ters Meteorological.
The history OF meteorolgy has been
made subject of investigation by DR..
G. Hellman. He finds that it is not
exactly known who first kept regular
meteorological journal; but Hum boldt
attributes it to Columbus, on his first
voyage to America in 1892, while the
Italians also appear to have made daily
observations from the middle of the fif-
teenth century. The oldest Of the
meteorological instruments is the wind
vane. The qualities of the winds were
correctly described in the periods Of
Homer and Heriod, in the ninth and
eighth centuries b. c.; while the first
arrangement for observing wind direc.
tion is the Temple of Winds at Athens,
built about 100 B. C. Eyinhard, in the
reign of Charlemagne, denoted the
winds by the four cardinal points. The
first instrument for denotiag wind force
essentially the same as the pendulum
thermometer now used-is ascribed TO
Robert Hooker, in 1867. The absorp-
ton hygrometer, was invented about
the middle of the fifteenth century by
N. de Cusa; and the first condensation
hygrometer is credited to the Grand
Duke Ferdinand II. Of Tuscany. The
first continuous hygrometrical observa-
lions appear to have been made by r.
Boyle, at Oxford, in 1866. The first
thermometer is attributed TO G. Galilei,
toward the end of the sixteenth centu.

Thinning Fruit on tho Trees.

This is a subject which will properly
bear repetition. Among others who
have amply tested its advantages, is
Jabez Fisher, If Fltchburg, Mass, who
stated in an address before the Massa-
chusetts Board of Agriculture, after an
experience of more than twenty years
in thinning pears, and half as many in
apples, that the labor expended in this
way has always been worth more than
twice what it has cost, and in some
cases more than five times. He con-
fidently stated that it adds to the value
OF the remaining product from twenty.
five to one hundred per cent. 1t pays
the largest profit when the crops arc
heaviest. In such crops the difference
in the value of the firsts and seconds in
greatest. In 1883, when the apple prod.
uct was very large, and great guam
tity went begging at small prices, first
class fruits sold for fully three times
the prices of the others. But it should
be borne in mind that the trees on
which the fruit is grown must receive
fair attention and good cultivation, for
fine fruit can not be grown on feeble
aud stunted trees, nor gathered from
them. The: finer and fairer the speci-
mems the handsomer and more perfect
and excellent will be those bringing
high prices in market; but III all cases
the best fruit will grow or trees not
overcrowded with crops :. Country

last application made while remained

Tour acres had been prepared for wheat

wheat crop on this was better than on
other parts Of the field, the straw

grain plunlper; but just how m"ch bet

not make accurate tests then as now.
The salt told wonderfully on after
crops. The field was sown in timothy
at the time of sowing the wheat, and
clover the following spring, six quarts
to the acre, the small, red kind. At
the wheat harvest the clover on this
portion was so thickly set that there
was scarcely q square foot that was not
covered with rank growth, while on
the other there were many spots where
the clover looked sickly. and some
places were bare. On moving the field
the next season the clover on the sailed
portion was badly lodged and the other
not. The succeeding season the clover
had nearly disappeared and the most

aver saw had taken it's place. Look

Little Trees known as the Laps of For
est Vegetation.
In Norway, as in most northern re-
glOnS with a moist climate. there are
large forests of birches In the valleys,
where the summers are warm and rea-
sonably long, the birches of different
Farther to the north, or higher up the
mountains, the summer is too short for
the growth of birch-trees, and their
place is taken by birches which never
pass beyond the size of small bushes.
Still higher up there are birches even
where snow falls during every month
of the year, and the distant sun gives
only glimpse of summer in July. Com
petition with other plants is, of course,
not severe in such regions, but the
birches must struggle against the
weather. They can live and multiply,
ii only they can adjust themselves to
the conditions of life. They must keep
down their size, they must carry as little
foliage as possible, and their stems must
be tough enough to resist snow, and
hardy enough to withstand almost per-
petual frost. Their years growth must
be finished in very short time, and
leaves, flowers and seeds must follow in
the most rapid succession. In short,
there is room for birch trees here, If
only the trees can be reduced to their
lowest terms. And SO birch trees have
crept up the mountain sides even to the
very edges of the perpetual snow. But
such trees! All trees requiring sunshine,
or long time for their summers growth,
are rigidly kept away by natural Sc
lection" The cold climate dwarfs the
individual, and the hard conditions ex.
c!ude every individual not dwarfed. I
have before me three birch-trees from a
Norwegian mountain called the Sule.
tind-the little trees known to the No..
wegian peasants as "Hundsoire,'' or
''dogs'.ears." The trunk of each tree is
barely an inch in height There are no
branches, and but three leaves. Half
inclosed by the uppermost leaf is the
single little catkin of flowers. Leaves
in June. blossoms in July, fruit in Au.
gust and then the little tree is ready
for its nine months sleep. These little
trees are the Lapps of forest vegetation.
