APPLES AS MEDICINE.

Economically the apple is composed
81 fin Q, albumen, sugar. gun, nsslic
acid, gallic acid, lime and much wa
ter Furthermore, the German analy-
sis says that the apple contains lar
ger percentage of phosphorus than any
other fruit or vegetable, says ply
sician. The phosphorus is admirably
adapted for renewing the essential
nervous matter, lecithin of the brain
and spinal cord
For people of sedentary habits,
whose livers are sluggish in action,
the acids of the apple serve to elimi-
nate from the body noxious matters
which, if retained, would make the
brain heavy and dull, or bring about
jaundice or skin eruptions and other
allied troubles. Some such an exper-
ience must have led to our custom of
taking apple sauce with roast pork,
rich goose and like dishes.
The malic acid of ripe apples, eth
er raw or cooked, will neutraliZe any
excess of chalky matter engendered
by eating too much meat. 1t is also
fact that such fresh fruits as the
apple, the pear and the plum, when
taken ripe and without sugar, diGin-
ish acidity in the stomach rather than
provoke it. Their vegetable salts and
juices are converted into alkaline car
Donates, which tend to counteract
acidity. Record.

FARM LANDS

The Salem Sunb beam hits the nail on
the head when it comments as follows
on so'nc recent statistics:
IaF.iln the average value of farm
in New Jersey was $5,47O N 1910
it was $3.50. The land rose in value
from $32. 6S, per acre in 1900 to s4s. 90
in 1910. The farmers of New Jersey
have been very prosperous in the last
decade and the indications are that
they will continue to be prosperous,
for the population of near-at hand
cities has increased enormously, max
ing good markets for our farm crops,
while the improvement in shipping
ABILITIES has opened up many distant
markets for the products of our State

will be exhausted at an early date.
With best wishes of the season, am,
Very truly yours,

DAYS DOING At
STATE CAPITAL
eEO7oIA DEMOCRATS FAVOR
PcSTPONEMENT OF CONvEN-
TION-oTHER STATE NEWS.

Atlanta, Feb 28.-The proposition
OF Senator Bacon to postpone the ma
ton democratic convention long
enough to give deliberate considera-
ton &c the events of the republican
convention which is now set for only
one week in advance Of the democra-
tic, is meeting with approval here, and
it is expected that leaders of the
Georgia democracy will favor the post
ponement.
Whether the republicans choose
Tart or Roosevelt will necessarily be
matter of supreme importance in
connection with the choice of the
democrats and it is felt that W ma
tlonal party as a whole should have
more than two or three intervening
days in which to correlate ideas and
come to a conclusion.
