    Woi-mi kn Apples.
I -jr •' '■ : j-‘. !
Thl apple worm is produced from eggs
deposited in the calyirof the applej-whetrit
is They.gqftw holes inTp’ll^ep-;
pies, whtra ihey feast themselves all summer,
and sometime* nearly all' winter. A cotros
pondentof one .of our agricultural exchanges
suggests two ways to destroy the moths or
millers before the eggs ore deposited, and
thus prevent-the Worms. ■He says;
Havlng beotr troubled with wormy apples
for the last fifteen years, I thought 1 would
try att experiment on one tree this season, to
speiLl-could not. slop these marauders in
their wild career. Tlook half a dozen quart
beer bottles, and’ filled’each half full of sweet
enqUi IWlo'r 't'f'ilhen suspended them from
the branches oflhotrco |n ihe/following man
ner ; I tied leather straps three fouttha-of an
inch wide around the branches to prevent
them.from being girdled; to these leather
strops I.tied hemp strings, to which I attach
ed the bottler, tearing them open to allow the
millers to bnler.
{ let the bottles remain in this situation
five or six weeks, and on taking them down
and emptying them, found the millers had
entered hi great numbers and were drowned
in the liquid. In one bottle I counted fifieen,
in another forty, and so on. The trees thus
treated produced, fourteen bushels of large
while the fruit on the trees not
experimented upon was wormy. Whether
tllq; remedy produced all the difference or not,
1 will not pretend to say, but i hope some
fruit cuhurist willbo enterprising enough to
try the experiment next summer, and report
their success to the editor of this or same
other paper.
Another method that I would recommend
for destroying these millers that produce the
apple worms, is to take shavings or straw,
and light Ares in the orchard in the evening,
in.the month of June. As soon as the mill
ers see the light they will fly toward it and be
consumed in the flames. Millions may be
destroyed every season in this way.
Tlie Potato Hot.
Mr. W. Fugate, of Ktnderhook, 111., cl.iims
to have discovered a preventative of the po
tato rot. He says that the rot is produced by
an insect called the potato bug, which infests
the vines. These bugs never appear until the
vineS i are shedding their blossoms. By this
time the potato has received its generative
properties from the flower, and the vine is no
longer necessary for the producing and en
largement of the roots. He therefore recom
mends as a remedy to mow the vines all off,
being careful to leave some three or four in
ches above the ground, but permitting no
leaves to remain on the Shrubs. Me has
tried this plan for the last two years with
great success. The first year be cut bis
vines,"it was done more through vexation at
the bugs than at. any thing else; but to his
great surprise when usual digging time ar
rived, he had as fine potatoes as he had ever
raised.
“Last year while mowing off the vines, ho
left two rows unmowed for ihe bugs ■><> an ex
periment. Those rows prouduced a few
small potatoes, which were full of rot, while
the others were perfectly sound. The samp
bugs.fell to eating his tomatoes and beets.—
The beets stopped growing, and .were of no
use; and the tomatoes bad a similar rot to
that of the potatoes. This had led him to
bclierg that these bogs deposit a poison of a
blighting nature in every vegetable they
bite.
Mr, Fugate thinks himself entitled to the
810,000 reward offered by the Legislature of
Massachusetts for the discovery of the cause
and cure of the rot. —Life Illustrated.
Agricultural Reading.
The increased attention and encouragement
given to this branch of literature of late
y cal's, demonstrates fully that farmers are
sensible of its incalcuable advantages. The
large number of well supported and Qourish
ing-sgricultural periodicals which have sprung
up.withia a few years, and the agricultural
column, however poorly filled, to be found in
ettery newspaper, are now indispensable to
■he /arming community, and are read with
fully as much interest, and we hope profit, as
any other department. These publications
arp now within tho reach of all, and no one
can plead inability to subscribe and pay for
•uch works as the American Farmer, the
Country Gentleman, the Genesee Farmer,
the Country Gentleman, the Genesee Farmer,
and.others published in other States, not to
spegk of our own Farm Journal, in which
every Pennsylvanian should feel a local
pride. Every farmer in the Stale should con
tribute to (he support of this periodical, as it
is devoted almost entirely to tho agricultural
interest of this State, and containing the ex
perience and advice ol our best practical
farmers.
It is not alono by reading and commenting
upon the experience and advice of others that
wg' ; aro benefilled by these publications. We
should try for qprselvesthe experiments whose
results are published by others, as wisdom is
always belter learned by our experience than
by any olh&r means. Our own judgment,
when properly assisted by the careful and
impartiol consideration of the advice of our
brother farmers, Is the best and most reliable
guide to success in agriculture.
As another evidence of the beneficial ef
feet of agricultural reading, We need only re r
fer to the great improvement which bag been
snpwi) id iho qualify of aJI-kiniJs of slock
within a year. Information on this point
can by no other means be so well dissemina
ted, and all have ample opportunities of prac
tically applying such information at our coun
ty aodiSlate exhibitions.
Although wo advise every farmer in this
county to patronize and read those publica
lions .whioh-are devoted exclusively to agri-.
culture, we would again remind them that ouj
own columns arc always open to osmmuni
cations and advice upon this important sub
ject, in which none feel a deeper interest than
ourselves,— Co. Intelligencer.

some display of energy or temper. I have
known many Anatolian horses whom you Could
stop in full career simply by taking ybut foot
out of one of the stirrups. Let the An
atolian horse know that his fideVsiis firm' in
the saddle,-that his feet press equally in either
stirrup, that the bridle is all Tight, and that

will play at that game with spirit enough to
satisfy even the most fastidious horseman.—
If the rider is up for a neck-or-nqthing race,
his horseis the horse to dash forward at all
risks. But if his master is faint and Weak,
the same horse feels for him, and will carry
him carefully and tenderly, as a good nurse
does a sick.child. If you : ride'him over bro

and, if he falls, you may he sure'hc Will fait

you. Our young officers are rather reckless
riders. I have heard of scores of falls in ftill
gallop, during this campaign. I never knew
any one come to harm that had a fall with an
Eastern horse. In July last, an hour after
sunset, racing it hard over (hedarkened plain
of Devna, with a young officer of the Light
Division, who since died a hero’s death at
Alma, his horse fe'l in full career. Horae
and rider rolled in the dust, und it was nllo

wildered, astonished, and perfectly sound.—
The animal’s knees and free were cut; he
had put down his head to break the fall! If
that accident had happened with a European
horse, the officer would hardily have died in
battle. —Letter from the Camp.

The Springfield Republican adds to the
story of the man, who, when told by his land

was paid, replied, “Good, just put that in

100 susceptible to let the girls alone; and of
whom is told this circumstance: He was
riding with a lady “all on a summer's day,”
and accidentally—men’s arms, awkward
things, are ever in the way—dropped an arm
around her waist. No objection was made fur
a while, and the arm gradually relieved the
side of the carriage of the pressure against
it. But of a sudden, whether from a late re
cognition of the impropriety of the thing, or
the sight of another beau coming, never was
known ,* the lady started with volcanic ener

THIS' remedy id offered to the community with
the confidence we (cel in an article which sel
dom fails to realize, the happiest effects that can’ be
desired. So wide is the field of its nseliilness and
so numerous the cases of its cures, that almost every
section of the country abounds in persons, publicly
known, r wbo have been restored from ajarming and
cvbh-dbflpcrale diseases'of the lungs, by. its-use.
When once tried: ita. Biiperipritj dvey every other
medicine of its kind, is too apparent, locscope obsor
valion, &nd where its virtues are known, ‘tho' pnbiio
no longer hesitate what antidote to employ lor (he
distressing and dangerous affectioffs of the palmo
nary organs, which are incident to unr climate.
Nothing haa called tender for the earnest enquiry
of medical men, than the alarming prevalence and
fatality of consumptive complaints, nor Baa any one
class of diseases bad mere ot their investigations
and care. But os yet no adequate remedy has been
provided, cn which the public could depend for pro
Icclinn from attacks upon the respiratory organs, on
till the introduction of the CHERRY PECTORAL.
This article is t ohprodact of a long, laborious, and
I believe successful endeavor, to Ihrnlsh the commu

the American people are now themselves prepared to
i'udgc, and I appeal with confidence to their decision
f there is any dependence to be placed in what men
of every class and station certify it has done for them,
if wo can trust our own senses, when we see dan.
gcroUs affections of the throat and lungs yield to it,
if wo can depend on the assurance of intelligent phy.
sicians, who make it theif business to know, —in
short, if there is any reliance upon anything, (hen
is it irrefutably proven (hat tins medicine does re
lievc and does cure the class of diseases it is dc.
signed for, beyond any and all others that are know
lo mankind. If this be true, it cannot be too freely
poblisbcd, nor be to widely known. The afflicted
should know it. A remedy that cores, is priceless
to them. Parents should know it, thejr children are
rieeless to them. All should know it, for health can
can be priced to no one. Not only should it be cir
culated nere, but everywhere, not only in Ibis toon
try but in all countries. Haw faithfully wo have
actcdt on Ibis conviction, is shown in the fact that
already this article has made the circles ol the globe.
The sun never seta on its limits. ' No continent is
without it, and but few peoples. Although not in so
general use in other nations as in this, il is employ
ed by the more intelligent in almost ail civilized
aountries. Il is extensively employed in both Amer
ica, in Europe, Asia, Africa, Australia and tiro far
, off islands of the sea. Life is as dear to its posses
sors (hero as here, and they grasp'at a valuable ro
medy with even more avidity. Unlike most prepa
rations of its kind, it is an expensive composition of
costly materials. Still it is afforded to the public
at a reasonably tew price, and what is of vastly more
importance to them, its quality is never Buffered to
decline from Us original standard of excellence.
Every bottle of this medicine, now manufactured, “is
as good as ever has been mado heretofore, or as we
arc capable of making. No toil or cost is spared, in
maintaining it in tlio best perfection which it is pos
sible to produce. Hence the patient who procures
the genuine Ciierrv Pectoral, can rely on having
as good an article as has ever been bad by those
who testify to its cares.
By pursuing this course, I have the hope of doing
some good in (lie world, as well as the satisfaction
of believing that much has been done already.
