the great curative principle in nearly
all the prescriptions used by physi-
clans In treating consumption and the
more stubborn colds, catarrh, asthma

It is the guaiacol in the pine which
makes the ozone of the pine woods SO
effective In curing consumption.

Setting Out Fruit Trees.

The farm house that does not
have n good orchard, vineyard
and plenty nf small fruits is miss
ing something worth while. WI y
are there so many farms without
fruits? Sarely not because the
family does not care for fruit.
The real reason is, because OF the
rush of farm work during the
.pring there is not time to get the
ground ready and set out the trees
and plants. Then many make a
half-hearted attempt at 1t, and,
having poor success, give up the
orchard to weeds and live stock.
Go at the work right. Prepare
the ground thoroughly and sci
out the best trees and plants you
can get. Apples, plums, pears
grapes, blarkberries. raspberrie'
ani strawberries may all be grown
easily and within a few years
Order your stock early, and wher
it comes, don't leave it lyins
around the freight depot for two
or three DAYS. Get it home, ano
if your ground is not ready, bee
in the trees until you are ready t.
to set them out. G.. Brown.

AGRICULTURAL NOTES.

The steady practice to the
contrary shows the need still OF
pushing the doctrine of the good

crops. In this way the fertilizing
elements in the soil all get utIl-
izel, and at the same time bad
insects and undesirable fungold
growths are starved cat. 1t Is
noticed how nature provides foi
departures of this sort. One kind
of forest growth succeeds another

ference is that this plan can be
used with much advantage to man
