NATURES CATARRH CURE.
Sensible and Scientific Way to Cure
This DisagreeabIe Disease.

Nearly everyone suffers at one time
or another with catarrh.
The natural way to cure this dis
agreeable disease is by applying heal
spot.
In no other way can this be done as
naturally as by the use Of Hyomei,
brcathed through the neat pocket i'll
haler that comes with every outfit.
Put several drops of Hyomei in the
inhaler and then for a few minutes,
four or five times d day, let the air
you breathe come through it. In that
way all the air that enters the nasal
passages. the throat or the lungs. is
filled with Hyomei'S healing medical
ton, reaching the most remote air
cells of the respiratory organs.
destroying all catarrhal germs and
soothing and healing the irritated
mucous membrane.
A few days use of Hyomei will show
how quickly it relieves all catarrhal
conditions. and you will not have to
use it long before you find 1t has
effected a complete and lasting cure.
So strong is Bowditch, Webster &
Co, of Augusta and Geo. w. Dorr of
Waterville. Me-, faith in the power of
Hyomei to cure catarrhal troubles

a guarantee to refund the money I'M
less the remedy gives satisfaction.
they take all the responsibility and you
cannot afford to suffer longer with
catarrh when an offer like this IS
made to you.
Should extra bottles of Hyomei be
needed they can be obtained for SOC,
making this one of the most economi-
cal as well as the most reliable rene
dies for catarrh that is known.

Texas Camphor Farms.

Our people will have to look out and
bestir themselves or some one else
will gather the cream of the caanphor
business. There is no question about
its being a profitable enterprise and
those who start first will get the larg-
est share Of the profits
From an item in the Farm Stock
Journal it seems that Texans have
already embarked in the business, we
hope that Florida will not be far be-
hind.
Camphor raising promises to become
an important and profitable industry
on the farms of Southwest Texas. DR..
w. J. Watkins, of the bureau OF plant
industry Washington, says there is al
ready one camphor farm fourishing at
Wharton, Texas, and that another is to
be established at once at Floresville,
Wilson county, Texas.
DR.. Watkins is firmly OF the opinion
that camphor, which is getting rare,
and which commands very fancy
price, can be raised successfully in
Texas, and eventually become one Of
the states richest crops.
DR.. Watkins says: "The camphor
plant is planted from seed, the same as
wheat and oats, and requires no more
cultivation, except that it is planted in
drills SO that it can be the more easily
cultivated When a plant is matured
sufficiently mower is run through the
crop and the plant cut about a foot
above the ground. The severed por-
ton of the plant is made into camphor
through distilling process, while from
the stalks left in the ground the next
years crop grows. Only one planting
is necessary, as the roots produce from
year to year. The crop is very profit
able one, yielding as high as $3.50 a
year from each acre, with less cultiva-
ton by far than the ordinary crops
raised on Texas FARMS

to greatly check their growth while
young, which with lack of proper care
later on, accounts for their present
small size. The yet smaller size of the
one at Washington is accounted for by
its having been confined in the glass
enclosure.
AS to the original trees sent to
Florida, I had always understood the
climatic or other conditions, it was
coarse and undesirable. But on a
recent visit among the Florida grow
ers was told that it's propagation was
given up because OF the habitual shy
bearing Of the trees

Fertility Not Always Lost.

Land does not always give immediate
results from liberal manuring.. The
more completely decomposed the ma
nure, the better the crop, as such ma
nure is more soluble. If manure when
applied be coarse and full of litter, it
may require two or more years before
it will reach a condition to be of serv-
ice, which explains the securing of
heavier crops at times during the sec
ond year than during the first.

Origin of the Navel Orange.

parent Navel orange trees now grow
ing in Riverside, some two years ago
succeeded, through the good Offices
of G. Harold Powell, in securing the
facts concerning them from the records
in the Agricultural Department at
Washington
During a recent visit to Washington
not only found the account verified,
says J. H. Reed in the Riverside Press,
but was exceedingly interested in find
ing brother Of our two trees stand
ing in glass house on the department
grounds, seemingly in healthy condition,
and maturing several fruits.
The history of the introduction oil
the Navel orange into this country is
as follows:
According to a statement made in
1883 by James Hogg, who was then
living in New York, he left Brazil in
1888, where he had been wealthy
planter, and settled in Florida. He
secured from Brazil a collection OF
plants for his Florida plantation,
among which were several Navel or
ange trees. During the Seminole war
the entire collection was destroyed by
the United States troops, as the owner
had given aid to the enemy. It is not
positively known that those trees were
the same variety as those subsequently
introduced from Bahia by the Depart
ment Of Agriculture, but it seems prob
able that they we're. None OF these
trees came into fruiting, and no trace
of them now exists.
During the year 1868 Mr.. VIM Saun-
ders, superintendent Of the govern
<ment gardens and grounds of the Agri-
cultural Department at Washington,
learned through a correspondent OF the
department then in Bahia, Brazil, that
some Of the oranges there were of a
character superior to any known in the
United States.
The department. accordingly ordered
small shipment OF trees OF this va
riety. All Of the first lot were found
dead on arrival. By sending minute
directions as to budding, packing and
shipping twelve small trees, in fairly
good condition, were finally received by
the department in 1870. These we're
planted in one Of the government gar
dens and propagated from by budding
ON small orange stock. The young
trees thus propagated were distributed
to orange growers in Florida and Cali
fornia under the name OF Bahia" for
testing. In 1873 two of these trees
propagated from those originally i'm
ported from Brazil were, sent to Mr..
L. c. Tibbets, Riverside, California.
When these came into bearing the
superiority OF their fruit to that of the
other varieties then grown in Cali
fornia was quickly recognized, and the
two trees on Mr.. Tibbets' place were
largely propagated from by California
nurserymen, one Of whom renamed the
variety "Riverside Navel" and claimed
to have imported the trees from Brazil
himself.
Later at conference of orange
growers held in Los Angles, the name
