The common quail Is the beat exter minator of the chinch bug, and is fol lowed by the prairie chicken. If protec tion were given these birds and they were provided with opportunity for in crease, the insect pest would undoubt edly be very much decreased. To destroy the striped cucumber bugs a reader writes : "Take half a peck of plaster, one and a half tablespoonful of cayenne pepper, and mix the substan ces well. Sprinkle a small quantity on each hill and the plants. I have used this remedy for yeirs, and never lose a vine from the bug." Sour swill is not as suitable fer swine as is good fresh buttermilk or whey. Manv ailments of swine are due to feed ing the hogs continually of swill that is under a high degree of fermentation, much of it being entirely unfit for any purpose but to be thrown on the manure heap. Melons will grow rapidly now, and ashes are excellent for them. Scatter the ashes ou the surface of the ground, and thin out the plants so as to leave only two on th hill. Do not grow mel ons or pumpkins near each other, as they will hybridiz. Give the early sweet corn a thorough "booing as soon as it is high enough. Tb9 Gnat working is the most imporant, as It loosens the soil, keeps the weeds back and gives the plants an opportun ity to pu3h ahead before the next crop of weeds can Interfere with them. "Vhn the second crop of clover is cut place it aside for the use of the pigs and poultry next winter. It is chopped fine, scalded, sprinkled with ground grain and teed liberally. It will save food, and both pigs and poultry will thrive on It. Make the hills for jour lima beans very rich. Fine compost is th best material, but manure is also excellent. The point is to use plenty of it as the pods will fill out very slowly if there is a deficiency of available plant food iu the soil. Tre less Condition ot the l'rairles. In reply to a query from a correspon dent, the agricultural editor or The "World says : No entirely satisfactory cause has even been assigned fox the treeless condition of the fertile prairies, or of the arid plains, although it has beeu the subject of a great mnv theor ies. One is that the prairies were once uko bdi, aud afterward.-!, on becoming dry, they were grown over with rank grasses, the burning of which prevent ed the growth ot trees. Another is that severe and long continued drought destroyed the forests, and oa a change of climatic condition the grasses were the tlrst to rever and have since held their sway through the aid of fires. Perhaps the theory moat generally held by vegetable physiologists is that thd long continuance of foiest growth of the same species on a rich soil, made constantly richer by its own annual deposit of leaves, dead wood and excre tions from the roots, finally makes it roisjnous and unfit for their growth, though nutritious to plants of different families. Decay produces more and cioie dead wood, so that fires finally de stroy what the soil refuses to nourish. Coarse weeds and grasses aboudd, which make food for new flames to dostroy the remnant and prevent future tree growh. Assuming the above to be true to ac count lor the present changed condi tion of the prairie soils, it is said that age of continuous growth of grasses and other perennlala have assimilated those qualities that were obnoxious to the growth of trees, and In nature's process cf rotation of crops the Boil has again become fitted for them. And so it has cone about that It Is only necessary to to cnecK the annual prairie fire for a new crop of trees to dominate, . Women Blacksmith:. It Is considered improper for women to work underground in a coal mice. writes a Dudley Dudley, England cor fspondent. It is not equally wrong for them to toll as blacksmiths ? The scenes that occur In the smithies, est dally in summer time, are quite oppes- ed to the accepted notions of decency l he neat la intense. There are the forge fires, the red hot pieces of iron v and, above all, the tremendous labor of hammering out the iron. Even wintry weather, with the snow on the ground, I have seen women perspire at their work. In the summer it simply results in an indecent abandonment of clothing. The fellahln of Egypt are better clothed than the women In smithy's shop on a midsummer's d. Then to bring the olive hammer down with greater force, it sometimes bap- pens that two or three persons rill spring on the treadle at once. This is generally done by boys and girls They stand as cloee as possible, hold each other by the waist, and simultan eously spring with the right foot on the treadle. It is hardly necessary to add that the standard of morality is not .high among the members of this trade and would undoubtedly be much im proved if the women were debarred m a - irom sucii work-, whether the men alone could earn enough to keep the m is a question Dot so easy to answe though there can be no doubt that the lr -wages would greatly increase but for the competition of their wives and their sisters. ftttllob's) (eBiampllea tare This Is beyond question the moot success ful iourq oi edit toe we nave ever sold, a t few doees invariably cure the worse case Coueb, Croup, and Bronchitis. whll of its wonderful success In the cure of Cons aw p- lon is without parallel in the history medicine.

Two tablespoons of powdered sugar or flour weigh one ounce. For nose bleed, get plenty of powder ed alum op into the nostrils. To testore gilt frames, rub with a spocge moistened in turpentine. When dress silk becomes wet pat It between the bands to dry quickly. If the cover is removed from soap dishes the soap will not get soft. Itab your lamp chimney with salt to increase the brilliancy of the light. Sandpaper applied to the yellow keys or the piano ill restore the color. Tiesue or printing paper is the best thing for polishing glass or tinware. The best of tea makes but an indif ferent decoction unless the water is fre6h. For corne and bunions nothing is as cooling as the beaten white of an egg. Cucumbers cut Into stripes and laid n places infested with ants will drive hem away. Patient rubbing with chloroform will remove paitu from black silk or any other material. i Young veal may be told by the bone a the cutlet. If :t is very small the veal is not good. Crockery that has been "soaked" with grease may be cleaned by slow boilitig in weak lye. A solution of alum, ten grains to an ounce of water, is excellent for bathing tender feet. Egg shells crushed and shaken in a glass bottle half filled with water will clean it quickly. Lemon juice will remove from the throat the dark stains often caused by wearing black fur next it. Brooms dipped in boiling suds once a week will last longer and do better ser vice than without. When boiling cabbage set a vessel continuing vinegar on the stove and the smell of cabbage will not b apparent. Salt extracts the juices from meat In cooking. Steaks ought not therefore to De salted until they been bi oiled. Olive oil sa'nra id with camphor makes an excellent application for in flammatory swellings, also for rubbing rheumatic joints. Cocoanul oil is said to increase the srowth of the eyebrows ; apply It smoothly with a camel's-bair brush at night jun before re Ting. When troubled with neuralgic pains heat a fUt-iron, put a double fold of flsbnel on the pinf ul part, then move the iron to and fro on th flannel. Tl e pain will cease almost immediately. Wise Words. Assume! virtue is false dignity. Self admiraiiou is lnoesome exercise. A trained man will never go straight. Wise meu always have to be told how wis they are. Queer things are not so queer after i ht-y bt-come utilized. Appearances are not always the evN detCi of happiness. Ignorance Is more respectable than aouse of knowledge. A tai:or made man should never be considered responsible. Commou sense demands a government tht will govern impartially. There is no greater success in life to always have ac object in view. No man can exert greater influence than by exhibiting his own self-respect A reformer to be successful must al ways be prepared to take bis own drugs. Trie man who depends upon himself, kniws bow to do right without being t -Id. Persons imitato each other because h-y are not on good terms with them eves. The burden of disappointment is the nrCrssary preparation before success cm bt borne. Xo man will ever receive any Vnowls eage more convincing than the fact that be is bora. The successful man is always the best informed in regard to the means by which he succeeded. The act from a sense of duty will dk doce greater happiness than to yield to the promptings of desire. Food for Thought. We are martyrs to oar own faults. Facts scand by every man who is worthy. A ecorner Ioveth not one that reprov eth bis. The fire of jealousy burns with very little fuel. Life is not all in getting, but quite as much in helping. A book rosy live when the man who wrote it is dead. Silence is one of the hardest argu ments to refute. Labor is not genuine that has no heart or conscience in it. What a heartless world this would be if there were vo tears in it. A subscriber wishes to know how to destroy mots in the garden. It is very difficult to destroy them or drive thein away, as the substances that are disa greeable to the ants often injure the plants : but one of the best remedies is to fill their boles with strong soapsuds to which a small quantity of kerosene baa been added.

Still, in thia set ting of Hampton Iloads, the man could not be else than the central figure.

" Why U It Cold oa the Mountains. Go Into a greenhouse on a sunshiny day. and we find the temperature-ainch hotter than outside. The glass will al low them out ajalu with equal freedom, and consequently the temperature rise. Our whole earth is in this waj to be likened to a greenhouse, only,, instead of the panes of glass, we are enveloped by an enormous coating of atmosphere. When we axe on the earth's sarface we are, as it were, inside the gseenbouse. ana we beaeat by the Interposition of tbe atmosphere ; but when we begin to climb very high mountains we gradual ly get through the atmosphere and then we suffer from the oold . lr we could imagina the earth to be stripped of its coat oJ air, then eternal frost would reign over tbe whole earth as well as oa tbe tops or tbe mountains.
