As the season for various Insect pests once more comes around, It will be well to prepare for them a fitting reception. Paris green nnd London purple aro cheap and effective remedies, but their use Is attended with moro or less danger. Four ounces of keroseno thor. oughly mixed with ono gallon of skim milk, or soap suds, and then added to four gallons of water, If applied through a hose sprinkler, will effectually dlsposo of tho majority of insect enemies and at the same time involve no danger in its use. Py rethrum powder is an effectual insecticldo in many enscs. Cabbage worms may bo disposed of by sprinkling upon thorn water heated to 130 degrees Fahr., or by spraying on the plants a mixture of 200 grains of py. rethrum with two gallons of water.

Tho lady has brought an action against tho Philadelphia 0.ill for a similar publication. We wcro asked, a few days ago, why it is that tho C01.UM111AN does not publish reports of proceedings, and other matters of interest to tho Grangers. Our reply was that wo do publish nil matter ot tho kind that Is furnished, nnd nro always glad to get it. Not being Grangers, however, w must rely on the secretaries and others In tercstcd to supply tho necessary Informa lion. If no ono takes enough Interest In tho Granges to supply tho papers with tho Grange news, wo caunot bo expected to manufacture It ourselves. Xto aro will Ing to nil ml t that editors know almost everything, but not being endowed with tho gift of second sight, and not being om nipresent, wo aro unable to describe events of which we have not heard, or to discuss matters of which wo havo no information If tho Grangers will appoint some ono of their number to represent them In our col umus, wo shall bo glad to give space to , their contribution.

Our town has been specially favored with visitors the last few weeks, said visi tors being commercial drummers and po litical candidates with the candidates In tho lead. If wo aro to believe tlio stories theso candidates tell of each other there is not one of them named on the tickets lilted for tho office to which they nsplre. They nro not satisfied in decrying their oppo nents fitness for the office in their ability to discharge its duties but they nspcrso their personal characters and domestic affairs. When will these would-be olllcc holders learn that It Is not their best way to Im press the voters of their fitness for tho of fice thev nsplre to by slandering their opponents, but by letting tho people know that they nro men nnd not blackguards.

Won't our people wake up to the importance of the need of their help in tills matter and give it and Its hard-working Principal their moral support If nothing else.
