We don't believe what we hear, but
see a lady 66 years old, Mrs. Jacob

the mother of Glenn PrObert, Supt. OF
the hospital at Fargo, go upon the
stage to have her left arm cured OF
rheumatism. She could not raise it
to her head, or move it for I months
and it continually caused her pain.
4 committee was called and Mes
danes Burke, Wager, Harrison, and
Goodman, acted as the same. The
doctor then showed the committee
and audience a bottle Of D". CardO's
Electric Fluid and said in 10 min
utes he would Introduce Mrs. Buck
cured. The application OF Dr.. Car
dos Electric Fluid began, and to
our utter surprise, Mrs. Buck was
able to pick up a knife and fork, and
to raise her arm above her head, and
free from all pain for the first time in
seven months. After the audience
saw it was true and heard Mrs. Buck
speak, the opera house rang with
deafening applause which showed
that the doctors Efforts were crown
ed with success, and every one was
happy. This is but one OF the many
cases performed in our town by the

acidity of plant roots is equal to a one
per cent solution of citric acid. Test
ing certain soils with solution of
this strength, he has found that the
amount of potash available is very
much greater than that indicated by
testing it in pure water Thus, in two
soils, in which the total amount Of
potash present was about 11% per cent,
the availa BILE potash was four thous-
andths and three hundredths of a per
cent respectively. This is much more
than could be dissolved by pure water,
yet this result also shows that only a

The Orange Outlook.

Those who thought just after the
freeze that Florida would almost cease
to be an orange producing state, now
see that they were mistaken. For
time there was talk of Florida orange
growers prospecting in California
with a view of settling there, and the
island of Jamaica at one time pre-
pared to gobble up the orange indus
try of Florida root and branch. Hum
dreds of Floridians were represented
as preparing to set out groves on that
island, and if reports from other or
ange growing sections had not been
accepted with many grains of salt, the
impression would have been general
that this state was being abandoned
by all who hoped to live by the culti-
vation of citrus fruits.
But it has not been abandoned.
Florida now has 25 per cent more
people than she had before the freeze,
and an increase of 25 per cent even in
ten years is a heavy one for any other
state east of the Mississippi rver. The
orange groves are taking on their
fruit again, and in a few years will
be bearing more than ever. The New
York Fruit Trade Journal says:
The evidences that the Florida or
ange industry is fairly on the way to
complete rehabilitation constantly
multiply on every hand. The agricul-
tural and local journals of the state
TEEN with incidents and assurances
testifying to the rapid and permanent
replacement of the groves that were
supposed to have been irretrievablA

Celery Blight.

The celery plant is subject to
great many diseases says the Southern
Cultivator, but where the proper cul-
tivation is attended to, and the plant
kept in a thrifty, growing state, these
diseases are not very apt to attack it.
The south used to be troubled very
much with celery blight, but since
growers began to use a heavier per-
centage of potash in the fertilizer,
this has almost entirely disappeared.
The hot summer weather brings on
the blight in certain localities, but
when a fall crop is made it does not
appear, but on the first signs of it
slight spraying with thin solution
of carbonate of copper is sure rem
edy.
The blight can easily be recognized,
as the whole plant begins willing and
little black spots appear all over the
leaves which very soon turn brown
and die. If it passes a certain stage,
the best plan is to pull up the plant
and burn it to prevent its spreading
to other plants which, it is sure to do
if left alone.
There is also the leaf spot proper
which is not as destructive as the for
mer disease; in fact, it may exist to
quite an extent and good crop be
made nevertheless. Spraying with
the same solution on the first sign
tends to check further spreading.
There is the rust, also, which is often
caused by premature hilling up to the
plant long before it is fully grown;
this is a mistake, as it is apt to cause
rust on the stalk, which will spread to
the leaves.
Celery should not be hilled up for
blanching until fully grown; if it is
done earlier it takes away the nice,
crisp and nutty flavor we prize so
highly. Blanching is best done by the
use of boards laid on edge close by

the plants, and held in position by
soil or stakes. In the blanching pro-
cess one has to stuoy his market for
what is wanted and act accordingly
If this is done, the celery crop is sure
to pay well for the time and money
spent on it.

Small Amount of Soluble Potash in
Soils.


Soils
Though some soils may contain as
much as three to four per cent of pot
ash, or even more, the amount of pot
ash which is soluble in water falls as
low in certain of them as a thOusandth
of per cent. The soils which are
generally poorest in potash are sandy
and peaty soils, and hence potash ap-
piled to such soils is found almost in
variably to produce very considera-
BILE increase of crop. It is clear that
though other kinds of soils, such as
loamy and clayey soils may, and often
do, require potash manure, and bene-
fit greatly from the application of pot
ash, in the case of peats and other
soils poor in potash, it's application as
a manure will be attended as rule
with more certain and more effective
results.
The variation in the amount of pot
ash in soil that is soluble in water
usually ranges between a thousandth
and hundredth per cent. The re-
naming portion is chiefly present in
the form of hard insoluble compounds,
which are not available for the plant S
needs, and which only very gradually,
with the lapse of time, become so.
There are, however, certain COM
pounds which, while not soluble in
water, are believed to be more or less
available for the plant, since they can
be dissolved by dilute acid solutions.
The water in the soil, in virtue of car
bonic acid and certain other organic
acids which are dissolved in it, has a
greater solvent power on mineral sub
stances than pure water and this solv-
ent power of the water of the soil is
further aided by the acid nature of
the juices in plant roots. A striking
demonstration of power exerted by
plant roots in dissolving insoluble

tracing the roots of such plants as
ferns, which may be seen clinging to
a rock surface almost entirely bare of
any soil. The rootlets, in virtue of the
acidity of this sap, eat into the solid
rock. A similar effect may be more
clearly seen by growing plants in such
a way that their roots rest on pol
ished piece of marble, when it will be
found, after the lapse of some time,
that the surface of the marble has be-
come quite furrowed by the eating
and corroding action of the roots. A
well known English agricultural
chemist, DIR. Bernard Dyer has recent
ly attempted to estimate, so far as it
is possible to do so, the dissolving
power of the soil water and the plant
roots on such mineral ingredients of
the soil as potash. DR.. Dyer has come
to the conclusion, after large num-
