Lime Nitrogen.

Every gardener likes to use a slim
ulating fertilizer to hurry the crops
along. For this purpose nitrate of soda
and sulphate of ammonia are most fire.
quently employed. Nitrogen is the ele-
ment chiefly sought and all known
means of obtaining it cheaply have
been tested. Lately much interest has
been shown in lime nitrogen or calcium
cyanamid. The results of recent expert
ments with this fertilizer Indicate a
high value for it. In some tests it has
shown only so per cent of the efec-
tiveness of nitrate of soda while in
other tests it proved superior.
Lime nitrogen seems to be harmful
if placed in direct contact with the
seeds or roots of plants. 1t should pre-
ferably be mixed with the soil and ap-
piled from eight to fourteen days be-
fore seeding. 1t will then greatly has
ten the growth and maturity of gar
den plants. Some gardeners have
found that it is best to mix the lime
nitrogen with the soil five to ten inches
below the surface. The best results
have been obtained by mixing the fer
tilizer with twice its weight of dry
soil before applying. Lime nitrogen
should not be applied at a greater rate
than 135 to 270 pounds per acre.

two or three of the articles could be

easiest possible way to make a self

When physician tells woman, suf-
ferlng from female trouble, that an
operation is necessary it, of course,
frightens her.
The very thought of the operating
table and the knife strikes terror to
her heart. AS one woman expressed
1t, when told by her physician that she
must undergo an operation, she felt
that her death knell had sounded.
Our hospitals are full of women
who are there for just such operations
1t is quite true that these troubles
may reach stage where an operation
is the only resource, but such cases are
much rarer than is generally supposed,
because a great many women have
been cured by Lydia e. Pinl1hams
Vegetable Compound after the doctors
had said an operation must be per-
formed. In fact, up to the point where
the knife must be used to secure instant
relief. this medicine is certain to help.
The strongest and most grateful
statements possible to make come from
women who, by taking Lydia E. Pink

escaped sc~'iuus operations.
