SKIN DISEASES AND The GENERAL
HEALTH
Statistics Gathered by Sp' cialists
ShO There Is No Connection
between the Two.

How little skin diseases proper are
connected with PATIENTS health is
shown by statistics gathered recently
by g number OF specialists in skin
disease. One OF these-Dr. Decatur
D Dennis-has made careful inves-
tigation covering four years and has
complied $50 cases of eczema and
psoriasis. In only % of these, less
than 5 per cent, were the patients
afflicted with any other ailment. The
other 95 per cent were perfectly
healthy, no fever, no heated blood,
nothing out the itching eruption.
This merely bore out the recent con-
C usion Of specialists that skin disease
is purely an external disease, to be
treated externally, and not by crowd
ing thu stomach with nauseous and
useless drugs.
The experiments of DIR. Dennis were
further strengthened by a micro
scol ical examination of the blood o
the eczema sufferers. In the 457
cas- of no rmal persons no Impurities
were found.

clans and scientists conceded the

tt Pays to Use Fertilizing Sale.

Those who have used Salt on light,
sandy or WORKOUT soils are almost
unanimous in the opinion that it is the
cheapest and best fertilizer that they
can use on this kind of land, especial
ly for oats. The application of from
800 lbs 10 1000 lbs per acre is said to
more than double the crop. Salt is al
80 excellent as weed killer. The Yer
mont Experiment Station especially
recommends it for killing Paint Brush
on grass land. @. s. Page, Hyde PARK,
VT, sells very desirable Salt for fer
tilizing purposes, put up in cheap 100
pound sacks, for the very low price of
50 so per ton, free on board cars at
Hyde Park. This price is considerably
less than that for which ordinary Salt
can be bought and this Salt contains
considerable matter that adds to its
fertilizing value. The freight rates ID
points between Nuremberg and Swan
ton and Newport and White River Jet.
are very low on this material, espe-
cially in II ton lots. Write for full
particulars.

LIZARDS OF BARBADOS,
They Can Change Color and Drop
Their Tails at Will

The green lizards which swarm on
every tree certainly have the hardest
life Of any creatures in Barbados, since
their flesh is so delicate that every
thing eats them which can catch them.
Cats, fowls, birds, monkeys and snakes
all devour the poor lizards, which have
only two methods of defending them
selves, both very inadequate for the
purpose. One is their power of chang
ing their color, whereby they can APP
pear bright green at one moment on
the leaf of an aloe and then dark chloe
Olate brown on piece of damp earth.
If this does not conceal them from
their enemy they drop their tails. The
caudal appendage jumps from the
ground and makes a frantic dance all
by itself, and if the pursuer is delud-
ed into selling it the lizard avails it
self of the chance. to escape and grow
another tail.
For the. rest the poor lizards are
harmless things, with pathetic eyes. in
which turks an expression of weari-
ness and disillusion, as though they
were as old as the world itself and had
found it all vanity and vexation of
spirit They are fond of plaintive mu-
sic and will enter at the open windows
when piano is playing and sit listen
ing and nodding their queer fat heads
and looking out of those wistful eyes
at the player till he or she, if of an i'm
aginative temperament, might fancy
she were playing to an audience OF
transmigrated souls.-Chambers Jour

During the school days of those

Glover for many years was noted
for being almost the banner town for
maple sugar making, ard among the
larger producers was Amos Cook,
followed by his son, Amos Cook Jr.;
al d the latter has been succeeded by
his son, Henry Cook, an equally cue
cessful sugar producer, who now owns
the place. If l remember correctly

SOME ORANGE TREES AT
BEEVILLE.

In and about Beeville are per
haps more orange trees than in
any other given section of the
State apart from some of the
nurseries. For years a few trees
have been planted now and then
by men more or less interested
in fruit and numbers of volun-
teers and seedlings are to be
found there. The growing of
them on a commercial scale,
however, can scarcely be said to
have been undertaken. ~
On the farm of R. Linke, one
mile west of town, are fourteen
satsumas fourteen years old.
They were killed to the ground
in 1898, but since that time have
made uninterrupted growth and
have borne every year. Now
they are quite large, about
twelve feet high, and symmetri-
cal well-grown trees. This year
they have a pear crop set and
growing fine. Last year in adj
dition to the oranges used by a
large family and servants and
given away literally SITS worth
of fruit was marketed from
these trees. AS a commercial
showing this is good enough to
establish the value of the satsu-
ma.
On this farm are also four
Washington navels, two LANCER
ines and two mandarins six
years old, all with a pear crop
of fruit growing this year for
the first time. These trees have
not suffered from cold since be-
ing planted. With no extreme
cold they will now yield fine
crops steadily.
In several yards are fine
trees of delicious sweet oranges
that are seedlings, and names
and origin unknown, also the
parent Dugat orange tree is
bearing well. 1t was killed
down in 1898, but has made
fine growth since. A number of
men are now planting satsumas
and with no untoward freezes in
a few years more Beeville will
begin to ship a considerable
quantity of oranges.

March 1, 1880; provided said aid
shall not exceed eight dollars per
month and provided further,
that no appropriations shall

THE CONDITION OF PEACH
TREES.
By w. T. Hill.

l see that several reasons are
given for the lateness of growth
and blooming of the peach trees.
According to my theory the con-
dition is worse than ascribed by
others. The condition of peach
trees is the same this spring that
they were in the spring of 1876
the spring following the storm
of 1875-with the exception that
the damage is not so greet, as the
cause was not so great.
In September, 1875, from the
18th to the 10Th, we had a vio-
lent rain and wind storm which
soured the roots of the trees. AS
the spring and summer growth
of the trees was over there was
not time for the trees to rectify
their condition, but went into the
winter with soured roots. 1t was
an indisputable fact that healthy
roots make healthy tree.
saw in the spring of 1876
the dying condition of my trees
and began to dig up the dead
ones, when ] found the roots
very sour. [ put one-fourth
bushel of ashes in each hole to
sweeten the land for the next
planting. The most of my trees
died in 1876, the spring after the
storm. All were dead in three
years. Apple and pear trees
were little1ate, but did well.
Plums budded on peach stocks
Jared the same as peach trees.
Budded trees were universally
condemned that year as the
prime cause of the loss of trees.
| had occasion to be in Bremond
about April Is, 1876, and found
all, the trees on the red lands the
same as ours in the light Doggy
lands. The seeding trees, both
those planted in the orchard and
chance seedlings, were in same
condition in 1876 as they ,are
now. The loss Of fruit this year
was not from cold weather, but
solely from sour roots. The trees
bloomed well, but the embyro
peach was thrown off. l have
never seen but a few times in my
life the fruit crop entirely de-
stroyed by freezing weather. My
observation has been that where
the orchard has been well
stocked with bearing trees, there
has generally been enough fruit
for the family. There are thirty
one years between 1876 and
19O7-the two failures from
sour roots-which is not neces-
sarily discouraging to fruit
growers. | will prepare to plant
a new orchard next winter, as /
believe from the dying condition
of so many trees at this time the
orchard will be lost to me. The
rains last September brought
about the same condition, but of
less extent, of peach trees as was
done in 1876.

TEXAS FRUITS, NUTS, Der
RIES AND FLOWERS.

Under the above caption a
new horticultural journal makes
its appearance, the only one
published in Texas or the South,
so far as we know. San Antonio
is the publishing place of the
journal and J. w. Canada, the
newspaper man, editor and pro-
prietor.
The first number is a hand
seem twenty-page three-column
magazine, with a very attractive
cover design in colors, and the
journal, on book paper, is well
illustrated, and contains a num-
Der of practical and valuable ar
ticles by men of successful ex-
perience in fruit growing in
Texas.
Indeed all information of this
kind is needed for fruit grow
ing, for home use and for COM
mercial purposes, is coming to
be very important in every sec
ton of the State. In fact there
is not a section of the great
State of Texas in which some
kinds of fruit cannot be grown
successfully.
A practical Southern journal
of this kind, dealing with our
own conditions and problems, is
therefore a distinct gain for the
fruit interests of the State, and
merits the support of all who are
interested in the growing of
fruit.
