benSons Plaster Is Pains Mastery

For coughs and colds Bensons Porous
Plasters are an incomparably better rem
edy than any other-external or internal.
Their medicinal properties enter the skin
and 90 straight to the seat Of the disease.
They relieve and cure "seated" cold
without disturbing tle system Or upsetting
the stomach. Cough mixtures often nau-
seate. Benson's Plasters are medicinal in
the highest degree, and quickest to act.
Placed on the chest or back or on both
at once in serious cases, the good effect is
teltimmeljately. The congestion yields, the
cough abates and the breathing improves.
Lung or bronchial affections or kidney
disease, are cured with the least possible
suffering md loss of time.
Benson's Plasters are immeasurably SUI
perior to Bailadonna, Strengthening, Cap
flcum or any other combination in plaster
form. They are also preferable to ONT
ments lnlmcnts and salves.
Bensons P,asters have received .ttfty:fUe
h'gheSt GUarls over all competitors; and
more than 5000 physicians and druggists
have declared them to be one of the few
trustworthy househol remedies. For sale
ny all druggists, or we will prepay postage
on any number ordered in the United
states on receipt of Csc. each.
Be sure you get the genuine. Accept no
imitation or substitute.

POTATO AND FERTILIZER.
Potash Increases the Yield-OtheI
Things That Are Told.


Things That Are Told.
Commercial fertilizers influence the
composition of the potato, especially as
regards the quality of starch it con-
tains, if analyses are to be relied upon.
The value Of potash in producing adj
dtional quantities of carbohydrates in
growing plants has been pretty well es
tablished. 1t is evident that the liberal
use of potash not only favors the
growth of the potato in regard to yield
but also tends to increase its content
of starch.
German experiments indicate that a
moderate use of nitrogen tends to
slightly increase the content of starch
In the potato. An excessive use of nj.
trogenous fertilizers is to be avoided.
According to Virginia station reports!
Potatoes grown without fertilizers
contain the greatest amount of dry
matter. The addition of fertilizers
tends to diminish the dry matter and
also as the quantity of fertilizer used
is increased the amount of dry matter
is diminished.
Potatoes grown where sulphate of
potash is used contain more dry mat.
ter than those where muriate is used.
Very little effect is produced ON the
starch by either the kind or amount of
fertilizers used; their tendency is to in
crease rather than to diminish it.
Potatoes grown with muriate of pot
ash contain less dry matter but slight
" more starch than those grown with
sulphate Of potash.
Neither the kind nor amount of ferti-
lizer has any appreciable effect on the
percentage Of nitrogen, phosphoric acid
and potash contained in potatoes.

weak doses. Nitrate of soda naturally
suggests itself and has been used sue
cessfully where attention has been CIV
en- to the necessary conditions.
The effect of fertilizer is manifested
on the cucumber plant very quickly
within few hours of the application.
While the fruit is setting and forming
excessive applications tend to produce
a large watery fruit which will not
stand up well after cutting and also
would be deficient in flavor.
In one series of experiments report
ed the varieties selected for the test
were Bismarck and White Spine. The
seeds were started under glass on
April %, and frequent light sprinklings
of water were given to keep the soil of
the pots from drying out until germina-
ton. Transplanting was done in the
first week in May, the plants being
set q distance of six feet, the holes be-
ing 212 feet across and eight inches
deep. Well rotted manure and surface
soil mixed were used for planting.
May 10, six days after planting, fer
tllizer was applied at the rate of one
ounce of nitrate of soda to a gallon of
water, quart of solution to each hill
Similar applications were made on
May 16, % and 30 and June 3, o, TO-
% and &c, when fruit was setting rap
idly and in quantity. On the infer
tilted check patch the plants were
just beginning to bloom. On June 20
one quart of a solution of ~ ounces
Of nitrate of soda to the gallon was
given and repeated July 3, T, 10 and
"a and Aug. 8 with very satisfactory
result. Weaker applications of fer
tilizer were made later on, and the
vines continued in bearing until cut by
frost.
According to the record, the fortified
crop yielded at the rate of 6,739 dozen
per acre and the unfertilized plot yield
ing 94S dozen. The accompanying IL
lustratiOn shows the comparative size
of cucumbers. The total application
was at the rate of 324 pounds Of
nitrate of soda per acre in 10 applica-
tons.

Sowing Lettuce.

As soon as the ground can be work
ed in the spring a sowing of the black
seeded variety of lettuce is made in
the open ground, the rows being spaced
one foot apart and every other row be-
ing left out so that celery may be set
in later. When the plants are large
enough. they are thinned so as to
stand one foot apart in the row, Sow
ings are made in this way every ten
DAYS until about the Goth of August
These sowings, with those under glass,
give continuously maturing crops Of
lettuce the year round, says northern
grower in an exchange.

Brakeman's Reply Staggered Official.

The Boston & Maine and the Cen
trail Vermont railroads have had
new rules made for their employees
and some good stories are being told
about them. One of the rules is said
to be that the brakemen on the pas
senger coaches shall retain their po-
sitions near the rear of the car, that
they shall not sit down and that they
must not smoke while on duty. The
other day, as the story told by the
Montpelier Argus goes, one of the
officials of the Boston Il Maine was
making his rounds of inspection
when he espied a brakeman comfort
ably settled in the middle of the
smoking car, his knees up against the
seat in front, and putting away at a
weed. This utter disregard of every
minute particle of the rules and regu-
lations staggered the officer. He
went up to the derelict brakeman,
with whom he was unacquainted,
tapped him on the shoulder and said:
"My man, which would you rather
have, your job or that cigar?" and
strove to look stern. The brakeman
rolled the cigar between his fingers
a second and then looked up. "They
are both stinkers," he replied. The
official was almost knocked down by
the answer. He turned away with
out saying another word. The
brakeman's pay was raised.
