Nervous Dyspepsia.

Senator James F. Pierce, of New York,
writes:
For the past two years have suffered
very much from an aggravated form of
nervous dyspepsia. ! have resorted to
various remedial agents, deriving but lit
tie benefit. A few months since friend
of mine suggested the trial Of ALLCoCK's
Porous PLAsTERs. Following the sug-
gestion, have been using the same with
the happiest effects. To those similarly
afflicted let me suggest tho manner OF
their use. / place one over my stomach,
one over the hepatic region, and one ON
my back. The effect is excellent. From
the day commenced their use have been
slowly but surely improving, and am quite
confident that by continuing shall again
be restored 10 my accustomed health"

Green Manure for the SOIL.

We cannot as a rule adopt a better plan
than that devised by nature for growing
plants, and when we say that green man
ure is natures way of fertilizing the soil
for future crops 1t is as much as TO say
that it is the best, says the American Cul-
tivatOr. The forests, plains and fields
that have never been used by man have
been fortified for countless ages by green
manure, and as the result we always find
such virgin soil so rich that crops can be
grown on them for many years without
any application of artificial fertilizers.
To-day green manuring is one of the
cheapest ways that farmer can restore
and retain the fertility in his soil, Many
Of our soils are suffering more from the
lack of green manuring than anything
else On such soils continued applica-
ton of commercial fertilizers, or even
banyard manure, do not seem TO improve
matters, but soil gradually deteriorates in
spite of everything.
On all soils green manuring is not
needed There are some that contain
sufficient vegetable matter not to need
any more for wears but such soils are
rare They are generally virgin soils
that have not been worked much, or
those where heavy barnyard manure has
been resorted to every year One can
generally decide for himself whether
green manure is needed. WORKOUT soils,
light, porous, sandy soils, and those that
have been exhausted by several heavy
crops in succession, all need green ma
nuring. Sandy soil is especially bene-
flied by heavy green manuring. BY mix
ing the green crop in the soils the land is
so improved that artificial fertilizers
when applied will not leach right through
and be washed away. This is the great
trouble with sandy soils. They are so
porous that the. water and fertilizers
quickly find their way to the subsoil, and
there the large underground channels
quickly carry them of to be lost forever.

One of the most useful things modern

One of the most useful things modern
farmer can have is 9. piece Of portable
fence. The system of rotation in crops
makes it. more necessary. Il know a
farmer says correspondent of the
Practical Farmer, who has about eighty
great convenience. IN winter he fences
in a feed lot and thus keeps his stock Of
his fields. In the spring he fences a patch
of new ground or other fertile spot for
potatoes or truck. After harvest he
fences his stacks, or runs a line between
his corn and meadow. There are various
kinds of portable fence, some Of which
are patented and others that are not.
Every farmer should have about forty or
eighty rods of movable fence of some sort. 9"

Nitrate Of Soda, Asparagus, Etc.

Agricultural Editor of Morning News
Pardon me, please, for troubling you once
again What effect does the soda in com
bination with inter have on the soil or
crop? Does nitrate of potash have the
same action as the nitrate of soda2 Is
the nitrate of potash relatively better
than the former as the price is greater?
If nitrogen is a gaseous element, and
odorless, why do we attribute the rank
odOr of decayed vegeta bles to nitrogen?
Is this gaseous element eliminated by the
dissolution of the crystalized article
called inter? If 2-year-old asparagus
roots are planted in this climate in No
vember can the beds be cut over with
safety in the spring? VIII they produce
the first yearl Where can l purchase
Prof Villes agricultural chemistry, Miss
Howard's translation Could the farmer,
by building sheds, produce nitre any
cheaper than they can buy it in the
market2 j. w. F.
The soda that is in nitrate of soda is of
little or no value to plants, though it is
thought that sometimes it takes the place
of potash. In buying the nitrate of soda
all that you need expect from it is the nj
trogen that is in IT, Nitrate of potash is
entirely too costly to allow of It's being
used as manure. The very bad odor aris-
ing from the decomposition Oh heterogeneous
matter is chiefly owing to the sulphur
that is combined with it. Ammonia gas
in itself is not unpleasant to the majority
of people.
When ammonia gas becomes free the
bulk of it forms into nitric acid which as
a crystal forms upon the organic matter
from which 1t was derived and then it
can not be lost, but when applied to land
is washed out and into the soil by rain.
1t is well always to mix something with
the decomposing manure that will
promptly fix this nitric acid. Land
plaster is the best thing really, but dry
woods earth does it very well There is
very little nitrogen lost fro lecomposing
matter, especially where al. hing of an
absorbent is used. A little odor goes a
long ways and creates a false impression
as TO extent of waste.
As to asparagus roots, those two years
old should not be cut the following sea
son. Wait until the next year if YOU
would have the bed do well for number.

cut the first season.

for the lectures that you mention.
No, 1t would not pay anybody to attempt
to make nitrate of soda by building sheds.
You can buy It much cheaper than you
could make it. In fact it would be i'm
practicable.
On second thought we believe the
southern Cultivator Publishing Co, of
Atlanta, have the Vile lectures thatIyou
refer to.

Fertilizers, Potash and Phosphate.

From a considerable reading of farm
papers in the past four or five years l am
aware that there is a difference of
opinion among farmers and others as to
the value of potash and phosphoric acid
for our lands that have been run down
with cotton growing. Some hold that
potash is most needed, and others that
phosphate is the most essential. These
two substances compose the mineral or
ashy part of vegetation, that is, if I'M
derStand it, the two that are SO necessary
to apply to run down land to make it pro
duce profitable crops What is the cheap
est way TO furnish either or both of these
mineral substances2
