corn. What are the best remedies for
their relief?
Next to a corn l believe there is nothing
that gives more trouble to the feet of men
than buniOns. This affection consists in
q swelling under the skin of the inner side
OF the bail Of the great toe. In its earlier
stages it is thin-walled sac filled with
clear fluid, and then causes very little IN
easiness. but subsequently, in consequence
OF constant pressure and friction from
badly fitting boots and stockings, becomes
hard and tender Sometimes, particularly
after active exercise, the swelling becomes
very painful and inhamed, and forms an
a0scess. The beginning and growth of
bunion are caused In most instances by
distortion of the great toe, and are much
accelerated by the use of tight boots and
by much walking.
When the bunion is young. firm pres
sure with the fingers or a sharp tap with a
heavy object may cause il to burst and
bring about q cure. In cases where the
swelling has existed for some time and be-
comes hard and painful very little can be
done except to recommend boots made
large and roomy over the toes and with
the sole thicker at the outer than at the
inner edge, so that the foot in walking
may be thrown more upon the outer side.
When the bunion becomes very tender
and the skin covering it red and iniiamed
the treatment should be immediate and

1t is best to attempt the restoration of
WORKOUT soil by the use OF fertilizers, but
the use of fertilizers and manure, but
where the object is to concentrate the
manure over q small space, or where ma
Dure or fertilizers are beyond the reach OF
the farmer, he will have 10 use natures
method, but, OF course, with the appllca-
ton of considerable labor. The farmers
OF former generations resOrted to the fal-
low system. They knew that when a plot
OF land was not cultivated and was allowed
TO "rest, it recuperated and became capa-
bic OF Welding more than before. but from
whence the increased fertility was derived
or by what process the land partially re-
covered was not perfectly understood, but
that it was a fact had often been demon
Ftrated.
When the land was abandoned and per-
mitted to 'lie under fallow," as it was
termed, the weeds and plants indigenous
TO that particular field asserted their right
of occupancy, and with the aid of the nj
trogen gained from the atmosphere and
the disintegration OF the soil by chemical
action, which assisted to supply proper
ton of plant-food, the natural weeds
would, in the course Of time, cover the
ground. As they fulfilled their mission
and were returned to the soil to give place
to a newer growth OF plants, the elements
of their composition were added to the
soil to serve as plaut-food for the succeed
ing growth, which would be heavier, and
IN this manner the land gained fertility,
especially in nitrogen. while the shading
of the soil also served TO assist in convert
Ing the ins0luable mineral matter of the
soil itself into plant-foOd. as well as aided
in the conversion of the substances
brought down BY the rains into plant-food

FROZEN IN THEIR BOATS.
Over Forty Sealers Perish by the Cold
While at Work.

HALIFAX. n. S, March "a dispatch
from ST. Johns gives details of a shocking
disaster in Newfoundland by which at
least forty lives were lost. On Saturday
last 220 men went out sealing in boats
from Trinity bay. While they were on
the lookout for seals, the thermometer fell
TO zero and a terrific snowstorm can on.
The sealers struggled hard for port, but
were unable to cope with wind, snow, cold
and an angry sea. They had no extra
clothing and their small boats furnished
no shelter. Some were swept out to sea
while others were frozen upon the ice
where they were taking the seals. Many
died in their boats
Seventeen of the sealers were rescued
by boats which put out from Trinity bay
to their assistance. These were found ex.
hausted and in pitiable plight Some of
them died before they could be brought
to shore.
Thirteen bodies were found frozen in
their boats which were covered with ice
and had to be cut out. 1t is estimated
that fully forty men have persisted. Most
OF those who were lost were fathers of
families. There is great lamentation along
the shores of Trinity bay.
