Subduing Brush Land. 
Reader (A 'o Address). —What treatment 
would you advise for a piece ol land, long 
neglected and grown up to small trees and 
blackberry vines, which I am clearing to put 
it into condition for garden crops? Soil 
light and well drained, and seems to hav 
fair supply of humus from the crops 0 
leaves of many years. I have plenty of horse 
manure to use if thought advisable. How 
about lime if land is sour, which I doubt 
to be the case? On parts of the above 
piece are a number of large and remarkably 
thrifty apple trees, but hearing very few 
apples the past season. From the rank 
growth they display would you not conclude 
that nitrogen was needed, but muriate 
of potash or something of that sort? 
Ans. —We should test this soil with 
litmus paper to see if lime is needed. 
This test lias been often published. The 
fact that these trees make such a rank 
growth shows that the soil is rich in 
nitrogen. A mixture of acid phosphate 
and potash would be best to go with 
the manure. If you can buy the chemi¬ 
cals mix four parts of the phosphate to 
one of muriate of potash and broadcast 
after plowing at the rate of 600 pounds 
per acre. If you cannot get the chemi¬ 
cals use a mixed fertilizer without nitro 
gen, but high in potash and phosphoric 
acid. Use this freely around these trees

_ I sent $5 for “Save-The-Horse” to euro a Bono Spavin. At the 
time he was not worth $1 ; beforo he had the Spavin l was of¬ 
fered $000. Four veterinarians told mo he was incurable, so I 
felt blue, as you might believe. Since one month after treating 
him with “Saye-Tho-Horse" ho has not taken a lame step and I 
have driven him every day, and oven thirty miles the same day. 
Save-The-Horse” lias dono more than four doctors in a year. 
Now it seems exaggerated, but anyone in doubt can call at the 
neighiiors to prove what I say, and furthermore, the horse can 
give them a ride, and probably one of the best in their lifetime. 
I cannot say enough to praiso your remedy. E. C. Messier.
