I was requested to exaaine and see if I could discover any traces or marks of the eurculio. I did so upon fruit on the trees and ripe fruit that had falien off and lay upon the ground. I could discover no marks and no luras in the fruit. I gathered up Irnit from the ground and carried it home; it was all per fect. I tbooghtthere must be insects; ' ut there had been none at all. Having raised p!um3 more or less for twen'y years in Michigan, bat never without the effects of the cureulio more or less, and sometimes to entire destruction of the crop, you may judge of my surprise when iuformeii that all that been done was to pro cure common elder hushes and tic them to the tranches of the trees. This had been done every few days from the time the fruit was fair ly :et nntil fu'l grown. This man has lived upon the place 6vc years. The trees were up on the place—hearing trees—when he took possession; the urst two years he tried to save his fruit by shaking the treess and gathering p the eurculios upon cloths spread under them. He had Jvery poor success; the fruit was all stung and dropped off prematurely.— lie was in dispair tne eeeond year, when he was told by (as he said) "anold Frenchman" that if he wonldput elder bushes into his trees raise fruit. He has tried it three years with the same success—a fall cropof perfect plams. —A C. Hubbard, in Miduga nFarmt r, jfiffseeUmreotis. NOW READY ! BiRTLETTS' NEW IROH WORKS TOWANDA, PENNA.

As 1 have opened a Bindery on my own ac count, the inference is that if the public bring tlieii binding to me, they are in no danger of being defrauded.
