Gardening for the Month.

Kitchen Garden.

! The state of the weather and soil will f regulate most operations in this department better than any rules that can be laid down in a calendar. Circumstances being favour able, the operation of digging and trenching should be gone on with. Many think this operation unimportant, hence wa see ground from the time a crop is removed until pre pared for a succeeding one left in a most i neglecfed state. This should not be. The advantage of turning up the soil to the action of the weather cannot be too highly estimated, and has been proved and recommended in all ages and all countries. The most intelligent and successful etuti» vators of the present day lay great stress on this matter, and together with trenching and loosening the soil to a great depth, are abundantly rewarded by the increased and superior crops yielded by land thus treated. The sowing of peas and broad beans should on light open ground be resumed, but avoid sowing small seeds (unless under glass), till next month. Plant horse raddisb. Rhubarb may also be planted on deep rich soil, in rows three or four feet "apart; the plants at the same distance in the rows, but diagonally in order, to give the greater room for roots and leaves, and to facilitate forcing as directed last month. It must, however, be remembered that only old established roots are adapted for forcing, and that young plantations should not be "pulled"until the second year. Greenhouse. This is perhaps the most toying month of the year to plants in this department. Where there are heating appliances, they must not be too freely resorted to jin fact, if the temperature can be maintained by closing early in the afternoon, so as to enclose some of the sun's warmth, and severe frost anticipated, artificial heat is better dispensed with. Frost does not generally exist to an injurious extent at night; it increases in intensity in the morning, and it generally happens that the whole amount of injury done by frost takes place about'daybreak. Those therefore who would cultivate plants successfully must not grudge both early and late attention.; Flower Garden and Shrubbery. Whatever alterations, amendments, or additions are contemplated in these depart* ments, they should be put in hand at once, aud completed without delay. Bulbs may still be planted. . ..' Orchard akd Fruit Garden. Pruning should only be done when the ground is dry, otherwise the soil over the roots of the trees will become " puddled," and of course bake hard in the summer months, to the great injury of both the trees and fruit.

CANCER CURED. BRIEF PARTICULARS OF A REMARKABLE CASE IN THE WELLINGTON DIS TRICT. Fullest Information Sent on Application. Mr W. H. MEXTED, a well-known Con tractor, resident in Nelson street, Petone, has been ill for OVEE TWO YEARS, with I CANCER IN THE BOWELS. First sis months had constant craving for meat, had to have meat at meals at least twice a day. He says: —"Treated by two local doctors, at end of six months the doctors decided to put me under chloroform for examinntion and operation. Placed on milk diet for three days previous, und wasted to a shadow. After examination it was decided to send me to the Wellington Hospital for operation. A hard lump or ridge had been growing for some time at the upper part of the abdomen, and blood and pieces of flesh resembling the lung of a sheep was passing from me daily. I was in the Wellington Hospital two months. Was operated on, and under examination the doctors told Mrs Mexted that the trouble was cancer in the bowels, and was practically incurable. Was taken from the hospital in that condition, being taken to my home on the ambulance stretcher, and in such a weak state they did not think I would reach home alive. Was carried to my bed, and for weeks lay be tween life and death. The local doctors were in regular attendance, and concurred with those of the hospital as to the nature of my complaint, and stated they could do nothing for me. As time went on the doctors ceased calling, telling my wife that my case was hopeless and they could do no more. I was worn away to a skeleton, and daily passing the matter above referred to. My wife then tried various remedies and patent medicines, but there wa3 not the j slightest improvement, until, on the advice of friends, 1 started taking PL ANTE KO A, and it was not for some time that even thia seemed to make any impression, and I was almost giving it up in despair. However, while using the fifth bottle, the discharge gradually ceased, and I began to feel stronger, the hard swelling had almost disappeared, and I was able to get up and j about for a little. To the joy of my family' and friends the improvement continued, until at the present time I FEEL SPLEN DID. Have been away during Easter to Danevirke and Palmerston North for a trip, and have NOW RESUMED WORK. I consider that PLANTEKOA has COM PLETELY CURED ME. I shall be pleased to answer enquiries by letter or otherwise. —Yours, gratefully, W. H. MEXTED. I can certify that I visited Mr Mexted in the Wellington Hospital, and I never ex pected to see him come out alive, and his present condition astonishes me. Signed, W. Shilling, Pilot, Wellington Harbour Board. This is to certify that I conveyed Mr Mexted to the hospital in the ambulance, and two months later brought him home again, and assisted to carry \ him from the ambulance to his bed. Jas. Brocklehurst, general carrier, livery and bait stable keeper, Petone. Having been intimately acquainted with Mr Mexted for a long time I can certify to his serious illness and cure by PLANTEKOA.

Ross' Antidote and Ointment The Great Herbal Remedy for Purifying the Blood. rj^HE following -unsolicited Testimonial 1 by a gentleman well known in Ash burton, speaks for itself : — Masterton, August 28,1901. : Boss Antidote Company, Dear Sirs, —I feel it my duty to give you this enclosed testimonial in favour of Eoss' Antidote for purifying the blood. I have been a great sufferer for many years from ulcerated stomach, indigestion, etc. My life was a perfect misery, and I was almost a wreck. I grew tired of trying different medical men and remedies, of which I had tried almost every known one but yours and one day some eighteen months ago a , gentleman came into the shop where I was | employed. He remarked " Jack, you look very ill," and you may depend I was. He added, Will you take some medicine if I procure it; I replied, I will take anything. He brought me a bottle of your Antidote, and I took it accordingly as directed, and ■ to my delight I began to get well, and after taking three large bottles I was a new man, thanks to your great discovery. I always keep it by me, and find a few doses 1 occasionally keep me in perfect health, and I wish you the success with it that such a medicine merits. You can make what use you like of this.—l remain, yours, etc. J. H. Pauling, Masterton. I May be obtained from Messrs Fletcher i Bros., and Shearman Bros., Ashburton. Smoke Wow Venus

TUSSICURA. THE OREAT THFOAT AND LUNG CURB. IN epite of the many rivals it haa had to contend against in the field of pharmacy, TUSSIUURA has proved its superiority and is now admitted to be, for throat and lung complaints, the remedy of the age The wonderful success of the preparation is proof that th<* public ara quite capable of judging whether a thing is good or otherwise, and the verdict ia this instance has been emphatically in its favour. When TUSSICURA was first pat upon the market the investor was careful to explain that ifc was no part of his intention 60 provide a cheap medicine. Experience has shown that economy in iheae matters is invariably a nm ake, bub at the same time the public, quite properly, demand full value for their money. That they recognised that they have received nis shown by the large and constantly increasing sale of the mixture and the faith in its sacceaa. when it became more widely known, has been amply justified.
