SlitiRerlanil, of tho Cornell University aprioultural experi ment station, lias marie a study of the new orchard pest, and says that the "pistol case bearer" is more destruc tive than any of tho "ease benrers" ever known. He believes it to be an American insect. In Pennsylvania it i as already destroyed 8000 trees, and has now made its appearance ia New York. Its ranpe of food plants in cludes orchard fruits and probably tho chestnut. It occurs from Canada southward, through New York and Pennsylvania, where only it has been destructive, and westward through Nebraska into New Mexico. It is very small, and would hardly be noticed ex cept for tho "cases" which the little caterpillars wear, and which reveal them to the casual observer. Their form is piHtol-shnped. They are tough, leathery texture, apparently made from silken threads, interwoven with pubescence from leaves. These little cases are odd looking little ob jects, and are seen projecting from flower bnds, leaves or twigs. It ia doubtful if any spray will reach the in sect in its winter quarters. Chicago Inter-Ocean. Fanning of Indian Dialects. "Liko the buffalo, the Indian lan guage will soon bo lost forever," ex plained a gentleman who, under the auspices of .the Smithsonian, has de voted a number of years to the study and preservation of the Indian lan guage. "It was thought that the In dian language could be preserved by the aid of tho phonograph and graph ophoue, and parties were sent out to many Indian tribes to have them talk into the apparatus and thus secure a record of the Indian tongue. It was found, however, that but few Indians of the present day, and they were the older ones, could tulk a pure tongue. More than one-half of the Indians now on tho reservations, and this is the case with all the younger Indians, converse in English. It is not good English, but it is the kind they speak, a kind of pigeon English. I had the work of securing some Cherokee talk, and in doing so talked with a dozen or more leading Cherokees. They admitted to me that they did not know one Cherokee who could speak pure Cherokee. They said it was with the greatest difficulty that they could get the boys and girls to speak in their native tongue at all, or to learn even the commonest words or phrasal" Washington Star. jr "Fee Simple." "A deed in fee, or fee simple," an swered a lawyer who was asked by a btar reporter what the term meant. "'means an absolute deed, without uuy conditions attached to its issuance or tenure. It is deeding something which belongs to the owner. It trans fers ownership to the one who re ceives it, absolutely. Cuttle were originally the medium of exchange, or the money of the laud, for they were in exchanges long before anything else was thought of. They were the fees. the payment, the thing of value by which exchanges were brought about. A fee, therefore, is a payment; a re' ward. From this came the term, deed in fee, or deed in fee simple. A deed of this kind means therefore, a trans fer to the receiver of the same, and his or her heirs forever, of the prop erty in question. It is generally the result of purchase, but property cun be deeded in fee by a will." Wash ington btar. To Tap the Itliine. The Rhine is to be tapped to fur niuh power for the town of liuslu.

The old iiroverb that tho foot of tho sheep is golden is scarcely true if the sheep have only tho grass that grows in pasture as feed. But if fed grain or oil meal to fntten them while they are at pasture their excrement will be very rich, and will increase fertility rapidly. Sheep do best on tho natural grasses. They will soon ruin clover if allowed to eat it down, for they gnaw closer to the soil than any other domestic aui mal cau do. Boston Cultivator. Furl For Smokers. Much has been written regarding the fuel for smokers. With a smoker that wjll burn anything, tho question of ease of preparing it will be the main eat lire with the inexperienced. I here s a difference, however, in the coudi- ion and kind of fuel. Tho largest ee keepers use aud have found sound dry mnplo the most convenient and best for the smoker. Tho air passes directly up through the split wood, and very little steam condenses on the smoker, while shavings and rotten wood, steam aud rust the smoker. A ittle perfectly dry rotten wood, Cred with a match and dropped into the smoker before putting iu the pieoes of hard wood will, with a little pulling, start a good fire. Some nno rotten wood should always be kept where it can be had quickly iu case of sudden emergency, as it cau be used instantly when time is of great value. The Sil ver Knight. Thinning Fruit. In a paper read before the Missouri Horticultural Society, a practical or chardist said: No tree should have more fruit on it than it cau hold up well aud mature to perfection; that is to say, that the trees should not bo oaded as to require their being propped, or so much that the branches bend very severely. This chocks the growth of tho fruit to such an extent as to injure the quality. Every time a treo has too much frnit it weakens its vitality to such an ex tent as to require two or three years to recover, or so checks its growth that it begins to decline and is permanent ly injured. Iu the production of an over crop it costs the tree more to ripen the seeds than to make the fruit. If from a tree heavily loaded there is taken one-half or eveu three-fourths of the fruit, there will be more bush els of fruit than there would be if all were left on the tree. By this practice there will be less poor frnit upoti the market, aud the good will bring better prices and give infinitely better satisfaction. Thiuuing makes Uie fruit of much better quality, makes it keep longer, and produces finer, haudsomer, more attractive aud much more desirable and salublo fruit. When orchardisls shall look upon thiuuing as important as cultivation, pruning, care aud attention, they will succeed in supplying our markets with perfect fruit aud of tho very best qual ity, thus increasing the demand, enhau ing the value, and giving vastly more satisfaction to both producer and consumer. Clover liny lor Dairy Stock. There cau be no question but that clover is the best yes, the very best hay for dairy stocks of all kinds the calf, the heifer and the milch cows. fresh or dry, says a correspondent of 1'rairie tanner. Oood clover hoy is almost good enough without grain to keep a cow in milk aud in good con dition. It will keep the heifers and dry stock very nicely. Of course, if we have no clover hay other kiuds of hay or forage may be substituted if properly balanced with grain. I once brought a bunch of heifers through the winter to early spring calving on two- year-old wheut straw, but I fed very uoerally with oil meal. The next best hay for cows that I have found hus been very early timothy, cut while it was very green aud just commencing to bloom. I once had a few loads of Hungarian millet that was a great sue cess. I had sown it early in June, imi uie weauier auu ground was so dry that it did not sprout until we hud had a good rain in July; then it cume up and grew nicely. It beguu to head when there was danger of frost, so I cut it aud put it away iu very ood condition, well cured; it retained its bright green color uutil fed out iu the winter. The cows would fairly gorge luuiimuivea wim n, auu me butter from the milk they gave had the June flavor and color. Sometimes hiivinc but a short crop of clover I huve tried many substitutes. Oats cut green did fuirly well when well cured, but I found them diflicnlt to cure. Mine grew very rank and contained too much sap ami was eo thick on the ground that I found it quite impossible to dry them. I have ulso cut wheut und rye for hay but the cows uto very little of it, it being not much better than straw. I once had an experience with peus. Perhaps my poor success was partly due to my inexperience. I planted them on quite rich ground, aud they grew very luxuriantly, and were prob ably four feet tall before they fell down. There was too great a growth to cure us they should; however, I dried them us well us I could and put them iu the barn. The man who helped me tells mo yut it was the hard est work he ever did, for they w ere so long und tangled that a whole windrow would hung together. They proved too strong a food to be fed us lilierully us other hay. That iuforuiutiim I guiued at tho cuit of u registered Jer sey heifer and u colt nearly three years old. I have grown peas with outs with better success. If the peas ripened ut tho sumo timo us tho oats I think it would be u good ideu to sow the two together, but the peus that I used be- cuiuyi overripe iii.-lore the outs were ready to cut. Curufudder does fairly well us a substitute for clover if cut eurly und well cured. It is, perhaps, if economically handled, the cheapest forage that cun be grown, JJut w hile " -" - - - w ('yu' i;,r i the different substitutes help when we cannot get that which is the best, it is always better to moke the main de pendence on clover hay, using the others when compelled by necessity. Clover is no doubt the best hay for dairy stock ill regard to its worth as a milk-making food, but it is probably also tho most cheaply produced of any kind of for ago planted especially for that purpose. It is cosily grown, it cleans the loud of many kinds of weeds, it enriches the land aud puts it in ideal mechanical condition for growing other crops, and its yield ranks among tho first in point of quantity per acre. Two crops are most always cut and occasionally a third; otherwise it generally furnishes good pasturage after the second crop is har vested. Farm ami Ctardcw Notes. A good grindstone is one of the most useful tools on the farm. The strawberry plants will be throw ing out runners, aud if the soil is loosened and tho yotiugrtinnersplaced in the rows the work of cultivating will be easier next season and fewer plants destroyed. Cutworms prefer to work during cool nights, aud they cause a heavy loss of early transplanted plants. When a plant has been cut off search for the worm iu that hill aud it will usually be found. It is difficult to use remedies to destroy them in a large field. By wrapping each plant with thick paper an inch below and an inch above the ground the plant will be protected. The large, coarse varieties of carrots most used for stock feeding are not bo nutritious as is tho shorthorn, which grows most of its bulk near the surface or slightly above it. As the shorthorn carrot cau grow moro thickly in tho row, it is nearly as productive as the deeper settiug varieties, and it is also more easily harvested. Five to six hundred bushels of the shorthorn car rot may lie grown per Bcre. This is a paying crop at the usual price of this root. Farmers who rely upon the fertility of their soil for success may be disap pointed if they do not give good prep aration and thorough cultivation to tho crops. While the soil may pos sess a large aidount of plant food, yet it must be presented iu the most avail able form. Much of the matter of the soil is inert aud is reduced by the roots of the plants, but this can be done most effectively only when the Boil is in fine condition and every por tion of it within reach of the plant. WISE WORDS. It is much easier to find the man you owe than the one who owes you. Prudence and love are inconsistent; in proportion as the last increases the other decreases. It is the unmarried lady who can give her sister points on the art of how to manage a husband. Imagination is the stairway which the mind uses when taking the meas ure of some lofty projection. Some peoplo have the knack of making other people uncomfortable trying to make them comfortable. The mau who cau write love letters without making au ass of himself has kept the matter very quiet. Nothing is so fierce but love will softeu nothing so sharp-sighted but love will throw a mist before its 'eyes. Some people are of the opiuion that the horse is doomed to become ex tinct, but the "ass" will continue to flourish. There is nothing thut helps a man iu his conduct through life more than a knowledge of his own characteristic weakness. Every man has some peculiar train of thought which ho falls back upon when he is alone. This to a great de gree moulds the mau. The South West. Admiral Jouett and the Fiuliliug Cadet. Admiral Jouett now on the retired list of tho Navy aud familiarly known ai "Fighting Jimmy" was Acting Secretary of the Navy once when the commandant of the academy at Ann apolis cumo over aud reported thut he hud been compelled to discipline a cadet who hud behaved iu a most un accountable maimer aud had dis graced the academy, tho department, the Government aud ull civilization. Jie then proceeded to relute how this cadet, when passing the lower regions of the town of Annapolis had sonie- Uow or another become involved in hostilities with a tough citizen und proceeded to polish him oft". Tho friends of the tough came to his rescue, tho cadet backed up against a w all, and whipped liveof thein iu succession, and then nearly huiuiuered the life out of two policemen whuattemptud to arrest him. Ho wus iu tho custody of the civil authorities, and the superin tendent of tho academy was seeking tho aid of the Secretary of the Navy in having him transferred to the uuval authorities iu order that ho might be court-martialed and punished. "Court-martial that fellow!" roared Jouett. "Licked live toughs and two policemen; not while old Jim Jouett is living. The boy ought to have a medal. What are you doing down there, anyhow? Do you suppose tho Government of the United States hired you to raise a lot of boys to play checkers. " Chicago Kecord. Westley Hichaids, of Birmimrham.

Allow four well-beaten eggs to one quart of milk; add tho caramel, taste and stir iu more sugar if not sufficiently sweet. The caramel should bo kept on baud ready for use, and is made by stirring over the fire one cup of granulated sugar until it turns black; while it is smoking aud boiling stir iu one cup of boiling water, boil for a minute or two and whon cool it is ready to bottle.

Boll the pork strips separately iu the onion mixture, put one into each in cision, rub tho remaining seasoning all over the meat. Tie it into a round sluipo. Place the meat into a bowl. Mix one .pint of strong" vinegar with half pint of water; pour it over the meat. Add two onions cut into slices, six cloves, two bay leaves aud twelve whole peppers. Cover and set in a cool place for three days, turning the meat every day with a fork. When ready to cook put the moat iuto a roasting pau, add the vinegar, spice, onion aud two tablespooufuls sugar. Set in hot oven and roast till done, about two aud a half hours, basting fre quently. Shortly before serving lay the meat on a hot dish, but remove the striug. Take off all the fat from the gravy, mix one tablespoouful corn starch with half cup cold water, add it to the gravy, aud cook a few minutes ou top of the stove. Add sufficient boiling water to make a creamy sauce, cook three minutes, then strain. Pour a few spoonfuls of gravy over the meat and serve tho remaining gravy iu a sauco bowl. Potato Cooking. The potato is the vegetable that taxes the skill of the young cook to the utmost. Why it should be so I cannot say, but the majority of oooks make lamentable failures with tho po tato. Even iu such a simple matter as the serving of whole roasted pota-" toes for a light supper (quite a fash ionable dish ut preseut) they fail from lack of the necessary experimentation, without which no cook can keep up with the procession of good cooks. They put tho potatoes in the hottest oven, wet from tho washing they have had, aud in half to three-quarters of an .hour take them out aud serve, and wonder why most of them come back on the plates merely nibbled at. Try this way: Take potatoes of moderate size, cleau them with a stiff brush, us ing no water. If wanted for a slip per at, say 5 o'clock, put them in the warming closet of your rauge, not too near the pipe, at 8 o'clock iu the morn ing. Turn them frequently during the day, and as soou as a splint will go through one aud come out dry, they are done, aud cau be kept iu good oouditiou for an hour by removing them to a cooler place. Potatoes roasted thus will absorb butter roudily, which is the best of a well-roasted po tato. To serve them, uso covered egg cups. Rub the inside of the cups with melted butter, take off the Bkins of potatoes, aud fill tho cups with the pulp, putting a good-sized piece of butter, and a pinch of suit, and a dash at white pepper on top. Set the cups iu the hot oven for ten minutes. Serve with broiled steak or chops. Home Magazine. Household Hints. Moths do not love tho light. A well lighted storeroom is valuable.
