THE SAME OLD STORY.

J.. A. Kelly relates an eY perience similar
to that which has happened in almost
every neighborhood in the United States
and has been told and re-told by thousands
of others. He says: Last summer had
an attack of dysentery and purchased a
bottle Of Chamberlain Collie, Cholera and
Diarrhoea Remedy, which l used &C
cording to directions and with entirely
satisfactory results. The trouble was
controlled much quicker than former
attacks when l used other remedies. :"

Abnormal Wood Growth.
THIS is SOMETIMES A RESULT
OF OVER FERTILIZING
YOUNG
MENTAL FARM SERIES,

While the experiments at thu
Experimental Farm are chiefly
made with what are known a!
commercial fertilizers, the value OF
stable manure, compost manure
and green manuring is by nc
means forgotten. In fact, the aim
and purpose Of all fertilizing ex-
periments is to supply artifcially
the same elements of plant food to
the soil that are furnished by the
best kind of stable manure, with a
view to regulating the proportions
of plant-nutritive elements in ac-
rordance with the proportions Of
those elements naturally demand
ed by the specific plant which is
grown on the soil, as we'll as with
regard to the natural plentitude or
dearth Of each particular element
in the purely natural soil.
Chemical analysis of stable ma
nure shows that it is of very vari-
able composition, according to the
food the animals have consumed
and the amount of litter the ma
nure contains, some manures
being far more valuable than
others. Barn yard manure con-
tains the elements Of plant food in
some combinations of nitrogen,
phosphoric acid and potash, and
its value depends on the amount
of these which it contains. 1t has
been found that no plant can grow
without these three elements of
plant food. However, some others
are needed. but these are seldom
deficient in any cultivated soil,
but the three plant foods, nitrogen,
phosphoric acid and potash, are
often deficient, especially in soils
long worn by careless cultivation.
Any such deficiency in the soil
must be made good before maxi
mum crops can be expected.
There is a further point to be
borne in mind, namely, that these
elements must be present in the
right proportions in order to
ensure perfect growth, and that
an excess of any one of them would
cause failure because there is not
enough of the other two. There IS
such a thing as over fertilizing.
particularly with nitrogen, as in
the case of very young trees. Pear
trees, for instance, if too heavily
fertilized during the first two or
three years after being set out,
have tendency to run riot in
wood growth, developing thick,
heavy, sturdy bodies and dense
oliage but not producing any con
siderable quantity of fruit. The
esults of the experiments at the

sounds That cannot BE Heard.

A stone thrown into the water pro-
duces ripples. In the same way II you
strike something, as drum, there are
ripples in the air, and the disturbed at
mosphere reaches the ear as sound.
The slower the ripples or vibrations
the deeper the sound.
The deepest audible sound in mu-
steal instrument is that of the great
thirty-two foot pipe Of the organ of st.
Paups, which gives sixteen vibrations
a second. That is probably the deepest
sound that the human ear can catch.
You listen to it, rolling through the sa-
cred edifice like distant thunder, and a
little thought will enable you to realize
that there may be sounds inaudible to
you, but which you can feel The deep
tone pervades your entire being until
you have some doubt whether you real
ly hear or feel 1t.
The thunder of the cataract of Mag
ara produces a note with exactly half
the number of the big organ pipe-that
Is, eight vibrations. You cannot hear
the note, but 1t can be recorded by deli
cate instruments and you can feel each
of the eight waves beat against your
ear drum. The great volcanic eruption
of Krakatoa produced a musical note
of four vibrations second. 1t was
registered by meteorological instru-
ments in different parts Of the world.

The Rat and the swan.

During a dreadful storm. when the
river Tyne had flooded the country all
around, number of people were as
sembled watching the huge masses Of
hay swept along in its rapid course.
At length swan came in sight. strug-
Cling sometimes for land and at others
sailing In its stately manner along
with the torrent As 1t drew near a
black spot was observed on its snowy
plumage, which the spectators We're
astonished to find was living rat, and
II is probable 1t had been borne from
its dwelling in some hay rick and, See
ing the swan, had FASTENED TO 1t for a
refuge. On the bird arriving on land
the rat leaped off its back and scam
pered away, but a man having no re-
spect for the sagacity which the rat
had displayed, killed 1t with a blow OF
his STAFF.
