that they have been fostered by the gentle

many persons at this particular season of

situation where they can receive an abundance of light and air otherwise they will become sickly

Plants are frequently injured hv inju

dicious watering. Some persons seem to

suppose that deluges of water afford a fiSfe" remedy for all the evils to which plants

are subject. This is a mistake. True,

they require a considerable amount of

moisture, but not one-half the quantity

which is oftentimes applied. Hvenlng is

the best time to water them, and in every

case, cold water from a cistern or a pump should be avoided. The water should

be warmed by exposure to the suu, or in

some other manner, up to the temperature of the atmosphere before it is used-

Many p\auts are greatly retarded in their growth by cold water being poured upon them. The nunmUy Vobe applied vanes

This is a dise.i.-e oecaMonallv met with

amongst lioises and cattle, and many

cases it proves a very troublesome disorder. It consists in. peculiar growth of organic cells in the surface of the

skin. In man. ringworm is a common afFeetiou, and it is said to be commuuica-

like all other skin diseases, it is genera-

ringworm are small apparently ulcerated
