STIMULATING GROWTH.
Practical and Scientific Use of Elec-
tricity In France.

A Practical and Scientific Use of Elec-
tricity in France.
A practical, scientific use of cleo
tricity is made in France to stimulate
the growth and increase the product
of field crops. An apparatus which
has been successfully used is called the
geomagnetifer, says the Philadelphia
Record, and consists of high pole set
up in the field where the potatoes or
other crops are growing. 1t supports
an insulated head of galvanized iron,
which terminates in the air in a sort
of plexus of points and branches made
of copper. This collector of electrici-
ty communicates by wire with a net
work of other wires, which ramify
through the earth around the foot of
the pole and among the growing roots,
beets, cabbages, potatoes or other crop
buried deep enough to be out of the
way in cultivating the crop.
It is found by experience that this
apparatus collects the electricity which
always exists in the atmosphere, and
which is made especially manifest by
storms, rain, wind, ETC., and transmits
it to the earth and the stratum of air
nearest the earth. The resulting
stimulus to the crop is very marked.
In one test within superficial area of
thirty-two meters the potato yield, in
proportion to the yield of adjoining
areas not electrically stimulated, was
as ninety-one to sixty. Another report
showed sixty-three Kilograms of pota-
toes, as against thirty-eight Kilograms
grown under ordinary conditions.
Other root crops and grapes give equal
| ly good results.

Ia the Time for Catarral Dyspep-
sia-Thc Hood lzslst be CIeaMsed.

The symptoms OF catarrhal dyspepsia
are: Coated tongue, pain or heavy feel
ing in the stomach. our stomach, helch-
ing OF gas, dizzy head. sometimes head
ache Respondent feeling, loss Of appe-
tite, palpitation of the heart and irregu-
larity OF the bowels.
For this condition Pe.ru-na is found to
he an admirable remedy. In all cases it
brings prompt relief to the painful
symptoms, and in larger per cent. OF
cases it makes a permanent cure. Pc
ru-na soothes the inflamed mucous sur
face, and thus strikes at the root OF the
disease. In cases where the in1lamma-
ton has been so severe and continued as
to produce extreme irritability of the
stomach, the remedy may be taken in
small doses at first, diluted in water;
but, as soon as the the improvement is
sufficient to permit the full dose to be
taken uudilnted, it is the better way,
and the cure is much more rapid. PERU
ma is also a spring medicine which at
once removes the cause OF all affections
