Those who suffer from catarrh know its

safe. inexpensive, home treatment discov-
cred by DR.. Blosser. who, for over thirty
five years, has been treating catarrh sue
cessfully
His treatment is unlike any other. IL
is not a spray douche, salve cream. or
inhaler. but is a more direct and thor
ough treatment than any or these. 1t
cleans out the head, throat nose and lungs
so that you can again breathe freely and
sleep without that stopped-up feeling that
all catarrh sufferers have. 1t heals the
diseased mucous membranes and arrests
the foul discharge, so that you will not
be constantly blowing your nose and spit
ting, and at the same time It does not
poison the system and ruin the stomach.

more minute the particles the more readi-

Gus experiments made up to this time, it
has been found that Stag meal has

tainly equal to one-half of that of solu-
BILE phosphate, that is, a phosphate bear
ing rock which has been treated with
sulphuric acid. 1t gives more valuable
results on some soils than on others. The
best results are always obtained on soils
containing large quantities of organic
matter and somewhat deficient in lime.
The variety of acids found in soils tend
to render more available its phosphoric
acid, and since 1t contains a large per
cent of free lime. 1t may be made to per-
form a double function or service in the
soil. 1t will prove a valuable fertilizing
material for use on low swampy soils
that are inclined to be acid, but it is not
as satisfactory for other locations and
conditions as high-grade acid phosphate.
When acid phosphate is properly made,
there will be but little If any free acid
present, certainly not enough under or
binary circumstances to injure or retard
to any appreciate extent the growth Of
plants. There is so much soil on an acre
of ground to the depth of one foot and
relatively such small application of acid
phosphate that the acid contained can
hardly be the reason for making the
land sour. 1t may be a factor but there
must be other causes entering In. 1t
should not be forgotten that acid phos-
plate contains a very considerable GUAM
tity Of lime. say nearly so per cent in the
form Of gypsum.
