The Monitor, a newspaper published at
Meaford, Ont, Canada, first discovered this
case two years ago, and published it at
length, which now seems, owing to the
cure of it, to be a miracle. The facts were
so remarkable that many people doubted
the truth of them. They said: at is too re-
markable; it cannot possibly be true; the
paper is mistaken, and the man, although
he may think himself cured, will soon re-
lapse into his former condition" etc., etc.
The accuracy of it's report called in ques-
ton, the Monitor determined to ind out
definitely whether the facts were as stated
and whether the man would really stay
cured. They accordingly kept a close
watch on the case for t,Oo years after the

analysis. while others. OF perhaps equal
prominence, at least in other lines, do
not place SO much reliance upon 1t. All
agree, however, that something is to be
gained by a careful chemical study of a
soil. Even those who do not agree
wholly with Hilgard concede that.
whilst q chemical analysis fails to in
dictate the exact degree OF availability
OF soil constituents, 1t will at least re-
veal the approximate total quantity OF
the several constituents present there
In, and in this indicating either the suf~
hciency or deficiency Of the several soil
essentials. 1t proves itself very helpful
to the agriculturist, even though X
does fail to show the exact degree OK
availability of a single soil constituent.
1t must be conceded that IL 1t does this
only, a chemical analysis is of sufficient
Importance to warrant its being under

that the weak point In an analysis is
that, while 1t reveals what a soil actu-
ally contains and in what proportions
the several constituents are present,
it does not state with absolute accuracy
just how much Of that plant food Is In
an available form. that is, in a form
suited for plant assimilation. This Is
an important matter. for, other things
being equal, the actual productiveness
OF any soil will depend not so mucn
upon the total amount Of plant food 1t
contains as upon the proportion OF thai
food which Is in an available form. And
until 1t Is possible for an analysis to
reveal with much accuracy the degree
Of availability Of any plant food essen
tial, 1t cannot be said that chemical
methods are entirely perfected and ca

respects satisfactory. 1t is encouraging
to note that many chemists are at the
present time engaged in perfecting
methods with this object in view.
1t frequently happens that when soils
are barren their failure to produce ID

MARY LINoARD, Woodstock, Ont.
DR.. Ayers Sarsaparilla las won Its way
to every corner of the world by the praise
of its friends; those who have tried 1t and
who know they were cured by the use of
the remedy. There is nothing SO strong

eases yield promptly to his medicine.
some cases are more stubborn than others,
but persistence with DR.. Ayers Sarsapa-
rilla usually results in a complete cure.
Mary Lingard began with a bottle, and
went on to a course Of DR.. Ayers Sarsapa-
rilla. When she was cured she realized
that a medicine that could cure disease
could also prevent it. So she took a couple
OF bottles each spring and kept in perfect
health. There are thousands of similar
cases on record. Some of these are
gathered into DR.. Ayers Curebook, a little
book of 100 pages which is sent free by the

nal sclerosis, and all said he could MOTIVE.
For three years he fingered in this con
dition. Then by some friends he was adj
vised to take DIR. Williams Pink Pills for
Pale People. He took them and there was
q slight change. The first thing noted was
a tendency to sweat freely. This showed
there was some life left in his helpless body.
Next came a little feeling in his limbs.
This extended, followed by pricking sensa-
tions, until at last the blood began to course
his body, and the helplessness gave way
to returning strength, the ability to walk
returned, and he wds restored to his old time

A FRIENDS ADVICE.
And what it led to.

It Is not a common occurrence that a
friendly word should be the means of Civ
ing nearly forty years of happiness and
health to the person needing the advice IL
carried. This was the case with Mary
Lingard. At twenty-five she was dragging
out her days in misery. 1t ~sixty-one she
nnds herself so active and strong she can
90 work that would shame many a younger
woman, and looks back on thirty-six
happy, hea1thful years of industry. But
let her tell her story:
"Thirty-six years ago I had great trouble
with my liver. The doctors allowed that
there were tumors growing on it, and thew
blistered my side in an effort to give me
relief. I was at that time earning NV
living as a tailoress, but for five wears.
W the pain in my side and the
blisters I was in constant misery, and
work was a drag to me, with no prospect
OF relief; fortunately for me, however, a
friend advised me to tax DIR. Ayers Sar-
saparilla, and finally persuaded me to take
q regular course of it. When 1 first com
nnenced taking the Sarsaparilla nv side
was so painful that I could not fasten r-y
dress, and for a time 1 did not get any
relief, but my friend advised me to per-
severe and relief was sure to come, and
come 1t did. This happened, as 1 say,
thirty-six years ago. My liver has never
erouoled me since, and during these wears
l have passed through the most critical
period OF a woman's life without any par
tcular trouble, and to-day, at sixty-one
years of age, 1 I'm active and strong, and

Soil for Pears.


Clay soil Is considered best for pear
culture, and still it should not be too
tenacious and sticky. A pear orchard
will not thrive so well. says Green's
Fruit Grower, on any soil that has not
a clay subsoil. Next to a friable clay
loan, a gravel loan is most desirable.
A light, sandy soil is the least desirable
Of any, and yet pears can be grown on
sandy soil. Standard pears can be
planted twenty to thirty feet apart. ac-
cording to circumstances and habits OF
growth. If planted thirty feet apart,
dwarf pears can be planted between
the rows each way. ! prefer a stand
ard pear for general orchard culture,
for the reason that they require less
fertility and cultivation, and for the
further reason that they ace longer liv-
ed and make larger and perma-
nent trees. When the question came
up for a vote, however, before the
Western New York Horticultural socie-
ty, we found that the dwarf pear was
the favorite for orchard planting or for
garden. Dwarf pears have the advan-
tage Of coming into earlier bearing.
The dwarf pear is not short lived. 1t
requires more pruning and more atten-
ton than the standard pear. Many va
rieties do better or the dwarf pear than
on the standard. l should not locate
a pear orchard or any other orchard in
a low piece Of ground. l should locate

planted. l transplant several thousand
every spring, and they do not lose on
an average one out Of n hundred
trees. Pear trees come into bearing
earlier than the apple.

Poultry Education.

At last people are coming to see that
poultry culture Is a branch of agricul-
ture worthy Of serious attention. Some
have always so considered it, but, sad
to relate, the great mass Of American
farmers have held it in the light Of
woman's work and left 1t to the care
of the wife and children. Now the
study of poultry ia becoming quite COM
mon in Europe and is being taken up
In this country. Even one of our ag-
ricultural experiment colleges has
opened a course for the teaching of
poultry science. In England the work
has already obtained a good footing.
1t is carried on in a variety of ways,
the most important Of which is the
county councils, similar to our farmers
institutes in some particulars. OF
course, at these councils poultry is only
one of the branches taught. But as
they are arranged in weekly classes, 1t
gives the instructors a better chance
to impress the principles Of the science.
In France there fs a school devoted en-
tirely to the teaching OF poultry Gull
ture and kindred branches.
