Almo*l everybody knows that wc get few plums in onr country, because a small beetle called the cureulio deposits an egg in the immature fruit, which then rots, and falls before it is ripe. It has been the great problem with fruit-grow ers how to get plums in spite of this in sect, and to this day it forms the staple topic with all poinologieal assemblages. Some time ago. Dr. Huffman, of lowa City, gave a plan for smoking them out. Many of these notions are started by people who never try wlia 1 they recom mend. In this ease we happen to knnw Dr. Huffman, and can say that he is a thoroughly painstaking gentleman, and very careful to know what he is to write about before he takes his pen in hand. We have great faith in what he may say, and so give here his plan: During the summer of 1871 I procured from the gas-house several gallons of coal or gas tar. I put about a uuart into a long-handled stew-pan, ana with a few shavings and a match soon hail a dense, black smoke. This I carried un der my plum tree, so that the dense smoke pervaded all parts of the tree. My first efforts were very gratifying in see ing insects of all sort® hurry out of the tree. Ants came running down the tm*. various kinds of worms and spiders let themselves down by their webs, and all winged insects flew out, leaving the tree deserted of all insect life. I spenfabout half an hour in smoking forty-two trees, anil this I repeated three or four times ! each week, unless rain had washed off , the smudge, when I again repeated the smoking. After my first efforts I tried tlie shaking process, but invariably failed to catch or sec a single specimen of the cureulio. I continued this process i until near the time of ripening, and got iny first crop .'I plums .>v.i thirty bushels. The whole cost l coal tar lor those forty two tree during tin' nun in.T was less than two dollar- Ib. an the smoking a little to*, late, after 1 Ita.l tried for *oine time the jarring into the sleet -therefore, som> of the tiuit had hre'n stung; and had it not l> n lor tin* mv crop of vine plums vv<>uld hav.
