The Origin of Massage.

China claims to have originated mas
@ge tr' 1tment According to long time
Chinese ideas, life is entirely dependent
ON "air currents, which are designat-
ed as the primary aura of the organism.
So long, then, as the body is permeated
by the air current 1t is proof against
disease, and the object Of physical ex-
ercise Is to- circulate the air current,
To effect this the Chinese system is d.
vided into three periods. each period
occupying a hundred days, the first
period commencing at the time Of the
new moon.
The patient must Else at 4 o'clock in
the morning and walk outside his house.
taking seven deep inspirations, and i'm
mediately after this two youths who
have been specially trained commence
gentle friction all over the body,
starting over the cardiac area. At the
time of full moon q further set of in
splratery exercises are taken. Later on,
in the second period, the various parts
of the body are rubbed with wooden
planks until the muscles are hardened,
and it is not until the hardening takes
place that the real physical exercises
are taken. Between the fifth and sixth
month is the period Of greatest activity,
the European dumbbell being replaced
by large sacks filled with stones It is
in the third period that the back mus
cles are chiefly exercised. Chicago

The Development of the Skin.

by almost constant OvercOvering day
and night for successive generations the
skin has by degeneration adapted itself
toits reduced requirements. From birth
to senile death we are much overcov-
cred. That full and vigorously de-
veloped akin is desideratum will be
generally conceded. The tendency is for
ours to degenerate to tissue paper
consistency, The exquisite structure of
the skin at once indicates It's impor-
lance as one Of the organs of the body.
A homely showing Of that functional
power which can be developed in the
skin is indicated by the story of the In
dian. Being almost naked and yet ap-
parently quite comfortable in inclement
weather he was asled why he did not
seem to suffer and 90 made ill by the
exposure, he replied: "White mans
face no pain no sich. Indian all face ,"
By this excessive covering our periph-
eral nerves are too intensely impressed
by caloric changes, our capillary blood
system too feebly and incompletely de-
veloped to battle most successfully with
heat, disease and traumatic impressions.
Its muscular fat and connective tissue
substance are all too deficient and de-
fective for our greatest comfort and
welfare. All its functional powers have
been reduced. Yet seldom is heard a
cry to develop the skin.-Philadelphia

Found Its Soul.


Aftor the Lucky Baldwin theater and

where the Instruments of the orchestra

been pumped out, August Einrichs,
leader Of the orchestra, hired man to

violin.

warped, twisted and broken up into SO
pieces. The hot water had soaked out
all tho old glue, and every piece had
fallen away from its neighbor besides
% good many patches of wood, put in
when repairs had been done. To all ap-
pearance the thing was, smashed beyond
recall.
Nevertheless Herman Muller, local
violin repairer who knew and loved
the old fiddle, took it in hand. Twice
he carefully joined the time darkened
pieces of wood. Twice he decided that

bered that of the old AIlati to havo had

wood bound to it until they had gained

Once laore he put the bits of wood
together Then for five weeks more he
patiently vanished and polished the

The Use of Fertilizers.
The Manatee County Advocate @


The Manatee County Advocate OF
December 8th, says:
There seems to be so much misun-
Outstanding regarding the use of COM
mercial fertilizers, that one is surpris-
ed at the extent and loss resulting
from not knowing what is required by
a bearing tree, and how best to supply
that want.
One grower we know has the right
idea-that a bearing tree. requires
fertilizer largely composed Of potash
backed up with sulphate Of ammonia
and phosphoric acid in proper proper
tons. He uses that kind and in Suffi-
cient quantity to both make abun dant
growth, heavy frlitage and large
crops.
A demonstration of this fact we saw
lately at Oneco in the two groves be-
longing to Mr.. w. B. Thompson. These
groves are sixteen years old and con-
tain 600 trees, which are indeed beau
tful and loaded with fruit. The foil
age is of dark green color and the
trees have vigorous and healthy ap-
pearance. They have been fortified
for two years with the "SimOn Pure
No. 1" fertilizer-prepared by f. o.
Painter & Co., Jacksonville, Fla. Mr..
Thompson is very earnest in his
praise of this fertilizer. He says it
has given better results than any he
has used before. This from such a
well-known, practical horticulturist,
having so much experience with
groves Of his own as we'll as the sew
era. groves he has cultivated for 9TH
ers in this county, is enough recon-
mendation to warrant us in enquiring
fur,uer for more information.
We find Mr.. Thompson uses two APP
0lcations of this fertilizer on his
groves In year. The first being four
tons or 10 and one-eight pounds to the
tree about December LIST, and applies
The same amount about June list. This
makes the annual cost, with the ferti-
,izer at $3.50 per ton, at fifty-three
cents to a tree. The contrast which
these two groves present with others
where this fertilizer is not used is re-
The Florida agriculturist. [volume] (DeLand, Fla.) 1878-1911, 1899-01-18

marked by all who see them. The
difference is not only seen in the large
crops of bright oranges but the in
creased growth of bearing wood and
foliage that is shown in the Thomp-
son groves. One of Mr. Thompson's
groves is the center third of a grove
that had been divided in settling an
estate.
Groves on both sides were fortified
with other brands, but the center
with Simon Pure No. 1."-Result--
the groves on sides scarcely any fruit,
while the center has a good crop and
trees in a healthy, vigorous condition.
One thing that is all the more re-
markable about the crops on these
groves is the fact that this is considered
an "off year, and but little fruit any
where yet these trees are loaded with
nearly double their last years crops
Other groves in the neighborhood
have small crops, little new growth
and are generally of less healthy APP
pearance.
The Reasoner Bros, propri tors of
the celebrated Royal Palm Nurseries
have used this Simon Pure Fertilizer
for the past four years, everything
there shows good results. In fact the
large experience of Reasoner Bros, IN
the cultivation of fruit and ornament
al trees, and their success with all
kind off plants which engage their at
tention makes the subject of proper
fertilizing one of vast Importance, and
they are so wei. satisfied with the ST.
mon Pure that they will continue its
use from year to year.
We are informed that in Volusia
county, about DeLand, where Mr.
Painter lives and has large interests
that ninety-five per cent of the grow
ers use Simon Pure Fertilizer. This
in itself shows the appreciate which
the fruit growers of Volusia county
have for this celebrated brand, and
from what we saw at Oneco in Mr..
Thompson's grove and the Royal
Palm Nurseries, we would have no
hesitation in recommending it's use,
particularly, where growth of trees
and heavy fruitage is desired
