By Being Constantly Supplied With
 Thedford's Black-Draught.

McDuFf, Va.-'I suffered for several years, says Mrs. ]. 5. Whitaker, oi his place, with sick headache, and stomach trouble.
 Ten years ago a friend told me to try Thedfofd's Blaek-Draught, which did, and found it 10 be the best family medi- cine for young and old.
 l keep Blaek-Draught on hand all the lime now, and when my children feel little bad, they ask me for dose, and ii does them more good than any medicine they ever tried.
 We never have long spell of sick ness in oar family, since we commenced using Black-Draught. .
 Thedford's Black -Draught is purely vegetable, and has been found to requ- ate weak stomachs, aid digestion, re- lieve indigestion, collie, wind, nausea, headache, sick stomach, and similar symptoms.

in transforming moisture into plant foed, and the small feeding, absorbing roots of the trees are SO necessary to supply the soil moisture, We must conclude that those two elements are the essentials in profitable fruit growing.
 And conservation of the energy Of the feeding roots aad leaves should be seriously considered
 The leaf buds and fruit buds de gelop in the spring time, the leaf set the fruit upon the tree before there fs very much Of a demand made up- on the supply of soil moisture stored in the ground and | is not until the leaves are getting to a considerable size before the sap or soil mi lure is taken ID by the roots If thfs is true, il is not necessary to cultivate with the view 10 conserve moisture till the leaves are ready 10 take the moisture up and transform it to plant food, which in turn will nourish the growing tissues of fruit and wood When this condition Of the leaves ar rive, then its necessary to haze a supply Of moisture to properly bal anee and feed and supply the mos- ture.
 How can this be doneo The earth is depository of moisture and min. eral matter and from the depths of hte earth there is continuously com ing to the surface supply of mois- tare and it passes off in the form of yapor by evaporation
 By cultivation, breaking up the earth surface, we may arrest this ev- aporation and conserve the moisture and hold it in q position where the tiny absorbing cells of tie feeder roots may gather up and send through their various channels the moisture so collected through the leat surface
 It is a scientific fact that it takes 400 pounds of soil moisture taken up by the absorption Of the small feed

ROBIN MOST NUMEROUS
BIRD IN UNITED STATES
Census Shows English Sparrow Close
Second-Chevy Chase, Nd, Holds
Record for Population.

A census of birds Of the United
States, announced by the Department
Of Agriculture today, shows an average
Of sixty pairs of English sparrows to
the square mile, or seven to every 100
native birds throughout the country.
The robin is shown to be the most
numerous bird. with the English spar
row a close second. In the northeast
robins average six pairs to each farm
of ffty-eight acres, while English SPAR
rows averaged five pairs per farm.
Taking 100 robins as unit, other
birds were noted in the following pro-
portions: Catbirds. 49, brown thrash
ers. 81; house wrens, 2s; kingbirds. 27.
and bluebirds. &c.
AS for density of population on each
acre of farm land there was an average
Of one pair of birds Chevy Chase,
Nd, holds the record for density, wlrere
161 pairs nested on twenty-three acres.
Thirty-four species of birds were rep
resented.
The bird population is much less than
1t ought to be, according to department
experts. who claim that II birds were
given more protection there would be
an increase in numbers.

Neutral Military Attaches Comment
on Fine Sanitary and Health
Records.

PARIS, February 16-The military
attaches of neutral countries, among
them Maj. Spencer Cosby and Maj.
James A Logan. jr., L. S. A, last week
visited the French and British battle
line. starting from Arras. They report
that they found the health of the
troops remarkable. Only 200 men in
the l1th Corps were on the sick list
DR.. CASTOR Cagniard, after five months
observation of the sanitary conditions
at the front, declares that all former
records have been. upset by the pres
ness being less than from wounds
which is said to be contrary to pre-
vious experiences
In spite Of the conditions predispos-
ing to typhoid fever after the battle OF
the Marne. according to DR.. Cagniard
the men sent TO hospitals for all rnala-
dies decreased 80 per cent in six weeks.
and now are less than 1 per cent as
compared with an average Of 4 per cent
when the soldiers are in barracks
SeVenty-scven per cent of the in ju-
ries sustained by the men are from
shell IRE. as compared with Is per cent
In the Franco-Prussian war. Many of
the wounds that have the appearance
of being caused by dumdum bullets
according to DR.. Cagniard, are due 10
the wabbltng of the German bullets
The neutral attaches declare that the
allied soldiers are being bountifuIIv
fed. and that they are well clothed and

UNDERGOING REPAIRS.
Lighter Boo Hoo and Schooner-Scow
Daniels at Boatyards.

In preparation for the coming of a
busy season, when many barges will
load railroad ties along the Potomac
for northern points, the steam lighter
Boo Hoo, belonging to L. A. Clarke &
Son, has about completed repairs at
Bennett's boatyard. The hull Of the
vessel has been rebuilt, machinery re-
pairs made and other work done to
put her in good order for service. The
Boo Hoo is used to load ties from the
shore upon vessels and is kept busy
throughout the summer in this work.
She is also used in the transportation
of ties from a downriver point to the
market here.
The schooner scow Daniel, one of
the largest vessels of her build in serv-
ice on the river. is at Alexandria to be
supplied with new masts to replace
those blown out last fall. The Daniel
is owned at Alexandria and is one of
the fleet that runs lumber, cord wood
and railroad ties from Potomac points
to the dealers here.
AS yet no decision has been reached
whether or not the Carter scow John
Taylor will be rebuilt. The vessel is
lying at Deans boatyard, at A1exan-
dria. She lost a mast and was other
wise damage1 when she sank in Mamie
moy creek last fall.
