so that the conditions must be uncongenial to it. In the case of 
the Celandine we would suggest that shade and moist soil are 
factors in the case, and, if so, an endeavour should be made to 
reduce the same. As it makes its,growth in spring and then dies 
away, an effort should be made at that time to uproot it. The 
soil must be full of the tubers, including very small ones which 
get overlooked and grow into big ones. A man or a boy might 
be set to carefully fork up the plants as soon as they have made 
a tuft of leaves. In the course of a week or two he might go over 
the ground again, being careful to remove the roots of every 
plant. If the specimens are allowed to grow to full size they pro¬ 
duce many tiny tubers in the axils of tire leaves, which fall to the 
ground, and in the course of a year or two grow into large plants. 
These little tubers fill the ground in the same way as seeds with¬ 
out being* noticed, and keep the soil continuously infested. If 
the plants are uprooted, tubers and all, before the plant comes 
into bloom, the little tubers above mentioned will not have time 
to form. No doubt the, soil is already well filled -with them, and 
that would account for their continued' reappearance every time 
the soil is dug. Hoeing the ground once a week and cutting 
every plant so that no growth could be made would also exhaust 
their energy in time. It would be necessary to crop the ground 
with the vegetables you mention in order to permit of hoeing.

AND 
“ NO COCOA LIKE yi-COCOA? T 
Mr. F. LOCKE, 16. Drayton Road, Sipaon, 
Yiewsley, R S.O., Middlesex, writes— 
“ I wish to bear my grateful testimony for the benefit I 
have derived from the use of Dr. Tibbies’ Vi-Cocoa. I am 
convinced that greater benefit is derived by its use than 
any other cocoa on the market. I am a foreman market 
gardener, and am, therefore, out in all weathers, and need 
something to keep me warm. I find by taking a breakfast- 
cup of Vi-Cocoa it keeps me warm until dinner-time. 
“ I have recommended it to many, and shalL endeavour 
to make its benefits known whenever an opportunity 
occus.”
