Belladonna, which before the war
came almost exclusively from Ger
many, is now being cultivated at
Dorking on a scale that will prevent
any possibility of dearth in the future,
and doctors, who partially discontin-
ued it's use, may now prescribe it as
freely as they did before the war, says
the London Times. The first of the
Dorking plantations was started i'm
mediately after the war broke out, but
the. difficulty of obtaining the seed,
and more especially the slow growth
of the plant, in the initial stages, pre-
vented the drug being produced in
large quantities until this year Next
year a still larger quantity will be
placed on the market. Practically the
whole of the plantations are on waste
ground that could not possibly pro-
duce food. IT the. seed is sown in the
