The Canker Worm;
As often as the season comes round
we feel it to be our duty to urge upon
all the importance of protecting the ap
ple. cherry and elm trees from the dep
redations of the canker worm. Al
ready this enemy covers a wide terri
tory and is yearly extending. This
ought not to fce,because there is a rem
edy, which, if faithfully applied, will
not only prevent this pest from extend
ing over any more territory, but anni
hilate him where he has already made
his appearance.
If a law could be made and enforced,
compelling every person to protect his
trees, it would be but a few years be
fore the canker worm would be entire
ly conquered ; but as long as there is
one or two persons in each town who
will not protect their trees at all, and
considerable numbers who afford only
a partial protection, so long will the
faithful have to continue the fight, or
oe content to do without apples,and see
their beautiful shade trees stripped of
their foliage.
If the only protection was through
expensive patent tree protectors, there
might be some excuse for those of lim
ited means for not protecting their
trees, but as au orchard can be fully
protected by tarred paper,and some one
of the different preparations of sticky
substances,at a very slight cost in mon
ey, and but a few hours' labor to each
tweuty-five trees, there really seems
to be no good excuse for rais ing cank
er worms to flood a whole neighbor
hood.
It is true,to fully protect an orchard
with tarred paper, it requires constant
watchfulness, and some perseverance,
qnalities which all fruit growers should
possess. The work must be commen
ced in the autumn, and whenever dur
ing the winter the frost is out of the
ground, and the weather is warm, tha
paper must receive a fresh covering,
and when March comes, the covering
must be repeated as often as the ma
terial ceases to be soft enough to pre
vent the grubs from crawling over it.
If the work be continued until the buds
expand there will be no danger of any
injury from the canker worms.
We would urge upon every owner of
an apple, cherry, or elm tree to see to
it that no canker worms find their way
up the trunks of the trees.
Each One Had an Excuse.
The other day a Brooklyn temper
ance man concluded he would take a
drink, and went into a saloon. To his
horror he met a friend at the bar who
was also the kind of a man who "nev
er touched liquor, sir." Each felt a
little better, however, when he divined
the reason of the other's presence.
Just as they said "good morning,"
and were sliding up to the bar, a third
party of similar abstemious pretentions
came in and would have backed out,
but the others saw him.
"Ah, ah, gentlemen, will you take
something ?" said number one. "The
fact is, I suffered all night with a terri
ble cold. It was simply terrible, and I
thought I'd take something to warm
me up."
Number two hesitated a moment
and theD said : "Well, I don't care if
I do. My rheumatism has been hurt
ing me awfully for a week. I believe
I'll join you.','
Number three then coughed, and
then pnt bis hand on his side.then hes
itated a moment and finally said :
"Well, I gue3S I'll take one too. My
wife's mother says her corns hurt her
so this kind of weather that she can
hardly walk."
A Soldier's Bright Idea.
One day soon after Pope's defeat at
second Bull Run and Chantilly, a pri
vate soldier belonging to an Ohio regi
ment sought an interview with his Cap
tain, and announced that he had a plan
for a military campaign, which must
certainly result in crushing out the re
bellion. The officer very naturally in
quired for particulars, but the soldier
refused to reveal them, and asKed for a
chance to lay his, plans before Pope
himself. After some delay he was giy
en a pass to headquarters. He did not
get to see Pope, but after the chief of
staff had coaxed and promised and
threatened for a quarter of an hour the
Buckeye stood up and replied.:
"Well, sir, my plan is for John Pope
and Bob Lee to swap commands, and if
we-don't lick the South inside of sixty
days you may shoot me for a patent
hay-fork swindler !"
When he returned to camp he was
naturally asked what success he met
with, and he ruefully replied :
"Wall,they had a plan of their own."
f* What was it V "
"Why, they took me out and booted
me for a mile and a half."—Def roit Free
