SOIL FOR FRUIT TREES.
The Kind Best Adapted for the Growth
of the Plum-Well-D Drained
Soil Needed.

Prof. +. A. Waugh says: The notion
used to be that plums preferred a
heavy, clay soil. This is still true for
certain classes of plums, particularly
the Domesticas and Damsons; but some
other plums thrive in other soils, so that
by choosing the varieties best adapted
to particular situations plums may be
grown almost anywhere.
Even light, sandy soils are suitable
to the Japanese varieties and some n.y.
birds. Taking all kinds of plums to-
gether, the best soil is that which would
be suitable for apples, and the general
rule regarding apples is that they will
thrive on any soil well suited TO pota.
toes. A loose, deep, gravelly soil with
an open subsoil, is the best for all or.
chard trees in this climate.
This is what should be chosen where
It is available. Where it cannot be had
almost any soil will do, providing only
that it is well drained. 1t must not
hold water either in summer or winter
If 1t is inclined to do SO, it must be thor
oughly drained. preferably by closed
stone or tile underdrains, before the
trees are planted.

the frequency of Brights disease in

says IudI ONeTedllHS Is Jne germ VI
nephritis. Mental activity and physi-

carking care and worry are also causa-

not as potent a cause as is generally

A rubber film glove has been de-

put on by immersing the hands in a

with an insoluble, impervious and
practically imperceptible pellicle, which
will not admit blood, pus or secretions.
Such protective measure for sur
geons is said to be preferable to work
ing with rubber gloves, inasmuch as
the sense of touch or pliability of the
skin is not impaired in any way
