A Bad One in New South Wales lVIeans
‘ a’ Loss of Many Million
Dollars.
What the drought of the last few
years has cost New South Wales has
been estimated, and the estimate makes
p a bit of very doleful arithmetic,
says Westminster Gazette. The flocks
of the colony have shrunk from 66,000,-
000 to 46,000,000, representing a loss of
20,000,000 sheep. If to this is added
the loss of natural increase the shrink-
age amounts to 50,000,000 sheep;
enough, that is, to equip a considerable-
sized colony. In addition there has
been a loss of nearly 300,000 horses and
150,000 cattle.
That the colony has been able to
survive these terrific losses is a strik-
ing proof of energy and resource.
Translated into money the colony has
suffered a loss of from £12,odo,ooo to
£20,000,000. For so much, when ex-
pressed in pounds, shillings and pence,
do a few inches more or less of rain-
lfall count! We are probably entering
on a cycle of years, a contemporary
'thinks, when the kindly skies will pour
on the far—stretching plains their bene-
diction of rain, and these vast losses
will quickly be made up.

it Helps to Produce Hand Wood,
Healthy “Leaves and Buds That
" Are Well‘ Developed.
An excess of nitrOgen usually tends
toward wood production and an in-
creased growth, at the expense, it is
Ithought, of the crop of fruit. Potash
and phosphoric acid, on the other
‘ hand,-are supposed to promote the gen-
eral vigor of the tree, and increase the
quantity and improve the quality of
the fruit. It is thought that potash
imparts a high color to peaches and
strawberries, and covers grapes and
plums with a deep bloom; but its ef-
fect on the fruit has not yet been thor-
oughly studied. ‘
The experience of many large fruit
growers favors the use of potash in
fertilizing orchards. It is commonly
applied in the form of muriate, from 200
to 300 pounds per acre being considered
:an economical dressing if the orchard
receiVes an application each year. I
often wonder if the practice is not
sometimes carried too far, and if a com-
‘plete fertilizer would not, in many
cases, give better results.
The result of experiments in the fer-
Jersey experimental station shows the
greatest yield of fruit per acre where
muriate of potash and nitrate of soda
were applied, but potash gave much
better results than either nitrate of
soda or phosphoric acid alone. Potash
seemed to promote a certain vigor and
thrift which were lacking in trees de-
prived of it. Potash has proved the
most valuable of the single elements;
the net gain being greater than where
barnyard manure was used. The larg-
est’ net gain, however, came from using
a complete fertilizer. S. D. Willard, the
~well-known western New York horti-
gculturist, says:

Lighthouse in u Cemetery.
Throughout the world there are hun-
dreds of lighthouses dotted along the
coast, but a lighthouse in the midst of
a cemetery is a rare thing. Such a
one, however, has recently been ereect-
ed in the cemetery at Ulverston, Lan-
cashire, England. A Miss Wilson had it
built in memorybf her father, who died
over a year ago. The structure, which
is 23 feet in height and eight feet in
diameter. is constructed of white Car-

and blistered my side, but I only grew
worse. Then you gave me a bottle of
Brazilian Balm. I had little or no faith
in it, but .decided to try it. I took 3 or
4 good doses before bed time, and rubbed
it well dver my blisteredside. That
