Tho potato beetle remains in tbo
ground all winter, emerges from it in
ino apriag in a |*erf.vt state, fully
uptown ami ready for procreation. Dol
ing the day, it ri maina n|>on tho potato
plant and does not fly till night, when it
traverses wh do fields ami whole sections
of conntry, the males in acarch of the
females, an,l rice versa. The beetle
does not eat, ami so does no immediate
harm. The eggs are laid on the under
aide of the loaves, in patches about an
iueh square, and are a goldeu yellow
color. In a few days the young soft
grubs are hatched, are ravenously bun
gry, have but slight hold of the foliage,
and are easily knocked off, They have
but slight ability to travel on the snrfa-v
of the soil, aud never desoeud to it vol
nntarily, nntil they have reached the
perfect slug state, when their natural in
stinct prompts them to seek the earth,
into which they burrow, form a cocoon,
and in due time emerge full grown Iwe
ties, ready to begin a new colony. This
series of change* takes place from two
to four times iu a season, controlled by
its length, wariuth, etc. In the last
change they remain dormant throughout
tho waiter, merely because the tempera
ture is too low to perfect the insects. It
is therefore probable that, if they ever
reach a tronioal climate, their transmi
gration wiii be uninterrupted.
Reasoning frvim these facts, we arrive
at the following, which are borne out by
actual uperiener: Any mode of de
stroving the beetle, practiced by a
farmer here and there, is only lost time,
as tho nightly flight of the sexes iu
search of each other is sure to
supply local tields from the others iu
the neighborhood, the aenas of stuell
beiug probably the insect's guide to the
nearest plant, and to the general ren
ilaavou . If extirpation of the beetle is
determined upon, it must be general and
simultaneous. The great difficulty of
accomplishing this is insuperable.
Therefore let tho beetle alone, Beetle*,
however, produce slugs, and slugs in
their turn produce Uvllc*. Slugs do
not migrate, are easily dislodged, must
eat, and arc therefore at our mercy in
at least two ways. If they are knocked
off the plants iu the middle of a dry hot
day, and ground into tho hot sod (say
by a harrow or any similar means), they
perish; and if the leaves are rendered,
by any external application, unfit for
their food, thev starve.
Au experience of six years has satis
fted me that the slug state is the ouly
vulnerable one, and either of the two
modes of warfare indicated above is
probably successful. They feed indis
criminately on all the tolanaeta. They
are cot poisonous, cannot bite or sting
a human being, tieod not be a terror to
any; and to conquer them, it is only
necessary to attack them ia a calm, cool,
intelligent, business like manner.—-A.

What is the usual allowance of grain
per head for hens for a year I
The consumption of grain by hens is
estimated at from one to two bushels a
year per he-ad, according to the range
given the fowls; as for instance, hens
having through the summer a wide
range woul require only one bushel,
whii th >se confined during the entire
year to narrow limits would probably
consume two bushels. On a general
average one bushel and a half would be
a suffiei- ut allowance of corn or mixed
graiu fc-r on- h -n. In return for this
outlay a g ->d breed of fowl will, if well
car- d f r, produce at least 175 eggs per
annum.

An edit.>r possessed of commou modesty
and sense, sitting at his table year n
and ye r out, would scarcely undertake
to instruct a farmer who is in the fields
every day in the details of the business
of farming; but in his general reading
and study lie catches ideas and hints
wi, -h are often of great value to some
of his readent
If farmers would avoid suddenly cool
ing the body after great exertion, if
they would be careful not to go with
wet clothing and wet feet, and if they
would not overeat when in an exhausted
condition, and bathe daily, using
much friction, they would hava leas
rheumatism.
As much as I detest being in debt,
says a writer, I would not hesitate to
recomm- id a young m r *n to run in debt
moderately for a farm, if he loves the
oocujiation, and who has a wife who
does not mind living on a farm ; for I
think with these requisites, if he be
cautious and frugal for a few years, he
will be hotter off and take more comfort
on a farm than in a city.

There is an objection to the common
way of boiling eggs which people do
not understand. It is this : The white
under three minutes' rapid oooking be
comes tough and indigestible, while the
yolk is left ont. When properly cooked,
eggs are done evenly through like any
other food. This result may be ob
tained by putting the eggs into a dish
with a cover, as a tin pail, and then
pouring upon them boiling water, two
quarts or more to a dozen eggs, and
cover and set thein away from the stove
for fifteen minutes. The heat of the
water cooks the eggs slowly and evenly
and sufficiently, and to s poly dike oon
sistenoy, leaving the ctnur or yolk
birder than the white, and the egg
mates -: nch richer as a fresh egg is
nicer tuna a stale egg, and no person
will want oj eat them boild after trying
this method once.

AFTER MANY DAYS.
Au old man lay in the little chamber
off the lw.it rvwmi of Abram Liumar's un
pretentious farmhouse, listening half
unconscious to the wuud of voices, uow
u stem flemaufl, again m humble plead
nig and protestation. His long gray
hair and beard swept the snowy luieu of
tnc pillows, against which his b roused,
sunken face seemed darker and more
hollow; his bony Augers tout the cover
lid in auger and synq athv, as his car fol
lowed the words of the speakers, aiul a
glitter sparkled iu his eyes, which had,
for five weary wow-ks, been glased and
dulled with fever.
'• I wish they'd come ill," he muttered
to himself ; " 1 uunt to know ail about
it; 1 was asleep at the first aud ean't
giie-ss how it beguu, hut it is evideut the
good people of this house are iu deep
trouble."
tie hail hardly ceased when the door
of the apartment opened aud Dame Liu
mar stepped iu with the noiseless foot
of the anxious nurse. Seeing that her
patient was awake aud was looking
eagerly aud inquiringly at her, she ap
proached the bedside and spoke to him
in a voice as sad aud mournful as sorrow
can train a woman's touts* to be.
"Awake, sir I Has the talking in tin
other room disturbed you J"
" It has not broken my rest, but what
1 have heard has disturl>ed my mind.
What is it I I only kuow that somebody
gives you till next Monday morning to
leave this comfortable home."
"It is about a mortgage, sr. But
here comes my poor, old husUuid; he
will explain it better than 1 cat:."
At the word the door opened again
and Abram L:mn.tr entered with bowed
head and firmly pressed lips.
"He's goue, Janet, aud taken the
very last graiu of hope 1 nurtured. Not
even the memory of the service I ren
dered him two-aad-twenty years ago in
saving his life when ho was at the mercy
of the highwaymen availed anything,
and we sliall have to leave the roof that
has sheltered us so long, doubly dear to
me as the work of my own hands and
the scene of genial associations. "
" Farmer Liumar, excuse the imper
tinence of my curiosity," said the low
voice of the invalid, " I know- a little
of your trouble. May 1 not know all J"
" Alas, sir," replied the hopeless
host, " the story is short us our future
stay within these walls will bo brief.
Five years ago my am in New York, be
ing embarrassed, I borrowed from my
next neighbor, a very wealthy man, the
sum of eight thousand dollars and gave
him a mortgage on tins —my feriu of one
hundred acree. Insba.l of gaming re
lief, my son became m<>re embarrassed,
failed utterly, and, from the grief ot his
Jisapi>ointment, died. I Lve j>aid two
thousand of the priucipol and now ten
der a third thousand, am! Ix-g that my
creditor will not proceed to extremities.
But I plead to a stone. He acknowledges
that for years he has coveted my land,
separating, as it does, two parcels of his
own, and, indeed, he has made me many
offers for it; now that he has the power
to oompel a sale, he swears that he will
force the matter and outbid anv com
petitor. as be has the means at his com
mand. He says that he offers me in return
all the money and interest I have paid
to him in consideration of my quietly
surrendering possession, and I suppose
I must. There's no other way."
" And I have been a charge ou yon in
such dire extremity," said the sick man,
feebly; " it would have been better for
yon to have left me to die by the road
side, broken down and fever parched,
where you found me. Many a precious
dollar you must have parted" with in my
long illness for physicians and their nos
trums. lam t"o weak to even thank
you properly."
"Say not so. The little you have had
in money or attendanoe will never help
to impoverish us. It was bread cast
upon the waters and it will return."
Tlie good farmer said this almost cheer
fully, for be reflected how mnch 1 letter
off at worst he and his dame and daugh
ter Marian were, than the homeless,
friend lees old man who lay in his care.
" After many days; after many days,"
oontinued the siak man, finishing th?
promise. •' Bat I am afraid, farmer,
thai neither you nor I will live till it
comes back."
" Why, don't talk ao, sir," brake in
Dame Linmar, "it s been a real oomfori
for as to do the little we eould for you.
We ore only.'paying a debt wo owe. Our
boy died away from home among Strang
<rs, and they were good and kind to
him when things were so bad that be
would not let us know, fearing our great
distress; the kindness he got from
strangers we are glad to pay liack in in-
Okailmonts."
" Would that I oonld aid you, a* I
.lave read of men apparently poor and
helplens doing for thorn who have sne
oored or ahown kindness to them, but
my poverty ia no disgnise. I am poor,
indeed; abeolntoly without a dollar or a
friend in the world. Coming thia way
I was only wandering in search of death
to avoid the almshouse, and it grieves
me that I should have fallen where I am
no heavy and unfortunate a charge."
•' Say no more, air, or you will take
from our performance all the merit
which attaches to it," said the farmer;
" we would lie in worse need than you if
we would afford so little relief grudging
ly or withhold it."
" Ton speak like one who knows
man's constant dependence, even in his
highest fortune. But you have not y t
told me who is this inexorable creditor.
Tell me, that I may correct good rejiort,
if such a lie comes to my ears."
"He is rich, respected and of excel
lent repute. His uamo is Asahel Pen
oost."
No stimulant could have so strength
ened the weak muscles of the invalid as
the simple prononncing of that name
did. He rose to his elbow, his deep set
eyes glowing with the fire of excite
ment.
" Asahel Penoost," he repeated; " do
yon know where he came from ?"
"Yes. He settled in these parte near
ly forty years ago, coming from near
old Gloucester in Massachusetts, I've
heard say, though information on that
point is not very definite."
" How old a man is he ? Was he mar
ried when he came here."
"He is about seventy years of age;
he bronght a wife and one won with him,
but his wife died and he married again."
It was the dame, true to her woman i>
instincts, who was readiest when neigh- j
ijorly news were asked or asking.
"Yes! yes!" eagerly continued fho
sick man, "and the son—what became
of himf"
"II qnimtM vilh hi* stern father.

back.

farmer, slowly, yet with tlrui n.wht :
" Yon need not concern yourself fur

" It is no time to do otherwise now.
When we quarreled I told him he was
no son of mine, and he swore he would
not bear my name; he left, and left no
trace to track him by, though I tried
hard at the time. Some ten years ago I
heard that he bad taken hiH mother's
name and was calling himself Lambert
Morrison; whether the information was
true or not I cannot say; but, true or
false, that is the last I have ever heard."
" Go you out into the world and seek
my boy till you find him; seek as I
sought you, in poverty, hunger, dirt,
sorrow and madness, for weary, weary
years. Bring him to me only and I'll
forgive you every penny that you
wronged me of." The father spoke, and,
speaking, told the solo object of his
life's secret. Money is nothing to a man
going down to tne grave, but love and
kin all.
" Already the bread has returned,"
said the farmer, detaining Asahel Pen
cost, who was turning to leave the
house. '* Your son," he oontinued, ad
dressing the invalid on the sofa, " is in
New York, if Lambert Morrison and the
handsome, bright boy Morris Pencost, I

our boy in his last illness and closed his
eyes, I might have known it. They were
playfellows, and he would not soe his
friend suffer nncaml for, and ho had too
sorrowful remembrances to allow him
to disclose his identity to us in Wayne."
The farmer was right, and within ten
days the missing son was clasped in his
father's arms and bore the third name
of hia life, the right one, at last—Lam
bert Morrison Whitney.
The fall of the proud squire was gen
erally hailed in Wayne, for he wss <>re
of those men whose temperament wor
few friends, and whose Htatiou repelled
them. He received at his brother's
hands enough to yield him a modest in
come, and busied himself in the imlis
tingnishniile throng of the grest city.
Marcus Whitney lived on in Wayne, and
gladly bestowed his benediction on the
marriage of his son and Farmer Lin
mar's only remaining child Marian; that
is, she was "child" to the former anil
dame, though turned of twenty-six—and
peace and happiness have crowned the
succeeding days of the warm hearted
people ao strangely thrown together.

I'ity tlie sorrows of the W- !<tu hua
tuuidmeu, for they are at once numer
on.*, various ami intending, last sum
mer the fair Held* of fruitful Kansas
were laid waste by the all devouring
gramhopi>er. Scythe* and sickle* hung
rusting ou the fensea, bams remaimd
bare and granaries empty, tn the day*
of their desolation the stricken farmer*
cried aloud for aid, and out of their
atmmlauce State* not afflicted wiih rov
euoas gra**hopjH<r* did help them. In
the progress of the seasons harvest time
has again come in Kansas, and, a* in the
years that are past, the sons of the soil
are soured and scolding. It i* not grass
hopper ravages this time, nor yet
droughth ; neither have the rains been
over-abundant, nor did chill winter lin
ger too long in the lap of general spring.
No, everything went right. Nature was
so beneficent that the agriculturists
are angry at too good a thing. They
grumble that the crops of Kansas nri
disgustingly et ormous. Millions of
bushels of wheat must lie left ungar
uered because there are not hands
enough to gather it in. A* to corn,
when it comes to that cereal the di*gu*t
of tho tillers of the soil of Kansas is
changed to anger. They shake their
cienciied hands at the waving fields, and
threaten to use bus of thousands of
bushels of the golden ear* for fuel n< xt
winter. Sad i* the soul of the unfortu
nate farmer when he reflects that all
this ahnndance betokens low prices.
Thoughtfully, he takes an extra dose of
tobacco, and meditates when in the econ
omy of nsture things will get even. His
Eastern brethren, regarding with com
placence tho over burdened field*, may
bo excused from wishing for a plague of
grasshoppers if in their track is certain
to follow such afflictions as are at pres
ent bewailed by tho Kansas farmers.
Shrinkage.
Jones says hat tho white flahin'l suit
ho bought n year ago has proved .v very
eoonomicwl investment, and has Ix-i-n of
much use in his family. Jones weighs
250 pounds, and when he lninght it it
fitted him remarkably well. After the
first washing, his eldest son, who weighs
100 pMiunds less than Jones, senior,
found it an excellent fit. Two washings
more made the garment delightful for n
youth of nine, and at the end of tho sea
son the baby was adorned with the ha
biliments, which hndsliruuk just enough
to make them fit for a child out of creep
ing clothe#. This year Jones' wifo nves
them as a dishcloth. Where all that
flannel lias shrunk to Jones doesn't see.
and says he would willingly take IUH
whole family and his mother-in-law to a
lecture which would explain it, iind pay
double price.
Increase of Neuralgia.
Neuralgia in the faccH nnd heads of
women is on tho increase, its oonipared
with tho number of instances of the dis
ease among men; anil this is believed to
bo dno to tho inferior protection afford
ed by the mode in which women now
cover their heads. It is not o ly ono of
tho most common of feiuinino maladies,
but ono of tho most painful and difficult
of treatment. It is also a cause of much
mental depression, and is regarded by
physicians as leading more often to hab
its of intemperance among women than
aay other disease.

As a Detroit saloon keener stood le
--hind his bar, says "M. in
walked a stranger, who inquired :
"Can you inform me what effect lem
onade lifts upou the mental system f"
"It lifts a good effect, where you pay
for it," was the reply.
"And where yon don't I"
" The effect is then transferred from
the mentnl to the physicwl system, ami
yon go out of here with something
kicking yon forty times per minute."
'• Thanks, sir," bow. 1 the stranger,
barking out. " I am not thirsty, and
I never did believe in summer drinks."
Ho went down tho stris't, stole two
harvest apples, and found the effect to be
just the same as if he had taken lemon
ade. When the " machii.o" ceasrxl
kicking, the stranger remarked:
" Between Wing kicked for three
cents or for ten oents, it is my duty to
W kicked for ten cents, and that shall

The dry earth treatment for ulcers is
found quite successful. Large, sloughy
ulcers, utter being washed, arc covered
with a thick layer of earth, over which
wet paper is placed ns n support, the
whole iieing neatly bnndnged. In a few
days the ulcers begin to clear, and when
the surfaces look h althy and granulat
ing, a dressing made as follows is used:
A piece of lined ill the size of the ulcer
is inuut i •d in carbolic oil, in tho pro
portion of one part acid to ten parts
oocoauut oil; with this the sore is eov
ered, and over it dry earth is placed,
and then moistened earth and a bandage.
In a short time the healing process
manifests itself satisfactorily, while all
odor is entirely removed.

A correspondent writes to a r k how he
shall cure hinisel* of the practice of to
bacco chewing. A man who hasn't
nerve enough to break off this dingmt
ing habit by the mere exertion of his
own will, might uiwiiit AN well tie an

self into the nearest river. This is a
shorter road to tho same end.
A Missouri editor writes toank wboth

Editress is an abominable word. There

The Fae of Dynamite.
The enormous explosive f< ice of dyn
amite is being utuixed iu Bcotland in
clearing tho fields from stumps of trees
nud bowlders, etc. The operation is
simple. Here it is: The earth is clear
ed around the stump, a hole pierced in
the roots, u dynamite cartridge iuserted,
and a fuse attached. The explosion
shatters the stump to fragments. Forty
stumps can be removed in an hour.
With bowlders, the operation is more
simple. Tlie cartridge, with its fuse, is
placed ou the top of tho stone, whioh is
then oovori d with sand. The explosion
breaks tbe stoue in pieoes small enough
to be handled and carried off the field.
When the heat increases the thermo*
meter rises to explain.

are profeaaioual tram pa from Baltimore,
Philadelphia ami New York, who have
no desire for employment, though they
pretend t<> go there to help gather the

house on the farm • f Mr. E. It. Coch
