THE FARM. <
BARN PESTS £
When the wheat and other grain id 1
housed in the barn it is far from safe, {
so far as insect pests are concerned. 1
The two most distinctive are the moth <
and weevil. The larva of the weevil :
is a small, black headed worm that! 1
eats its way into the berry of wheat. [ 1
When a barn once becomes infested 1
with weevils it is a most endless task ]
to dislodge them. A weevil is a bug j
not more than an eighth of an inch in ; '
length, and infests the many cracks and !
safe retreats of the barn. The only j
safety cousists in having the granary j
made as closely matched as possible,
and cracks well painted. The remedy <
for the grain moth is the same as for ;
weevil. Grain bins should be thor-1
oughly scalded every year with boiiing
water in which some "bug medicine"
has been placed. Many of the pests
that infest barns are of the moth fami
ly, the larva being the real "enemy.'"
In the spring these moths fly about in
the night and an old lamp set in a pan
in which some water and a little coal
oil have been placed, will attract many
of these moths by its light, and in fly
ing about the light they will strike the
water in the pah and thus be caught,
each one, being one less to do damage
by furnishing recruits.
TIIE TESTIMONY
of farmers that it pays to harrow in
clover seed in the spring is accumula
ting, and it is rare to hear of a case of
clover not catching, when sown in
connection with harrowing the soil.
One of the reasons why clover seed
fails to grow, is because it has no
chance. Sown upon the top of the
ground, and relying upon the upheav
al of the soil by frost, to give it root
hold, there is little if any chance for
the rootlets to germinate, or if it does,
no chance is afforded it to grow, and a
few davs unfavorable weather com
pletely "kills it. The question of har
rowing wheat is a debatable one, with
as much in its favor as against it.
The real question is, does the gain in
grain compensate for the extra labor ;
not that the wheat is damaged, but
when the success of a catch of clover
is practically guaranteed by harvesting
the wheat at the time of sowing it.
The success of the practice is its own
best rccomend.
A MANTUA FARMER
remarked to me this morning, 'I have
raised wheat f"r nearly forty years and
I value clover more highly every year
I have got more faith in a crop of clo
ver plowed under, than I have in any
phopphate. I use all ttfe barnyard
manure I can make and rely upon clo
ver for the rest, and when the men
who own clay farms will plow under
clover instead of buying so much phos
phate, they will bring'up the value
of their lands. But farmers should
not expect a crop of clover
plowed under to last forever. A clo
ver sod is good for two crops; manure
the ground for the third crop, which
should be wheat, and seed down again.
In this way we can make our farms
increase in fertility, and get better
crops with less labor, than by any
other plan.
FEEDING PASTURES.
That a great change has taken place
in the character of pasture lands is in
disputable. The first 'slashings,' with
their virgin soil, rich with stores of
fertility, the accumulations of thou
sands of years have given place to the
open, unprotected pastures that, close
ly cropped by the dairies, as year after
year they roam over them, now fail in
producing the rich, luxuriant growth
of the past; and even in a lesser de
gree, afford the nutritive qualities that
the soil once stored for these grasses
It is only fair to presume that if fertili
ty of eertian sorts could be given the
pasture a more vigorous growth of
vegetation would at once ensue. The
growth of grass, years continued, to a
certain extent exhausts the mineral ele
ments of the soil, and there being no
adding of- chemicals to decompose or
unlock the inert fertility, the supply of
plant food thus is yearly lessened, and
the result is that there is a dying out
of the grasses, and a coming in of
mosses and weeds that find the ele
ments of support they need, and thus
the pastures are made unproductive.
The remedy is the plow, manure, and
clover; but if there was even a top
dressing of one load of ashes per acre,
plaster, a small quantity of potash
salts, a light dressing of phosphate,
etc., they would work wonders, es
pecially if a light seeding of standard
grass seed and clovers is given in ad
dition and a sharp harrow run over ■
the field. Greater damage is done pas
tures by winter feeding, especially
su< h winters as the present one. It is
quite as likely that as great benefit
arises from allowing this 'old feed' to
decay and protect the pastures, as from
any fancied feeding value with which
it has been credited.
At the change of every season slug
gishness of the blood should be pre
vented by taking Peruna.

Gone With a Handsomer Man.
A Hurlington man recently wedded [
a voun t T wife. The lady became en- ]
tliused over Will CarletoD's tale of the j
elopement of a handsome young wo
man with a 'handsomer man,' and de
termined to try the same thing herself.
She wrote a neat little note, statins;
that she had left home with a gentle
man whom she dearly loved before she
met her husband, and that he need not
trouble himself to look for them
Then she called in her younger broth
er and went calling with him, arrang
ing to return and hide where she could
witness her liege lord's dismay when
he came to read of her flight. She,
from her place of concealment saw him
enter, saw hitn look all around in sur
prise at her absence, and finally saw
him discover the note. He opened
and read it, while her heart beat high
with excitement in anticipation of the
breaking out she expected to hear.
The poor fellow finished the cruel
missive, tore it up and threw the frag
ments on the floor, and then, without
a moment's warning, drew a revolver
and fired point blank at bis breast, and
fell without a s,ign of life on the carpet.
With a terrified scream the woman
was at his side in a moment, lifting
his head, rolling him, shaking him,
turning him. hunting for blood, all the
time shrieking to her William to for
give her, to oulv look at her. William
fay motionless, however, and tbe
neighborhood, aroused by the shot and
screams, came flocking to learn of the
excitement, when suddenly, when a
score or more had gathered, the dead
leaped up from the lioor as well as ever,
at which the wife fainted away. She
soon revived, however, and then it all
came out that the younger brother, be
ing in sympathy with \\ illiam, had
let him into the" scheme, and he had
chosen that mode of punishing his
joking wife. She jokes no more, but
her husband has compromised on a
pony phaeton to keep peace in the
family.— Hurlington Ilawlceye.
Yes Sir I'd Shoot Him.
Six or eight congenial spirits sat
around a stove in a Grand river grocery
tbe other night, and after several other
subjects bad been discussed, some one
introduced that of panics in churches,
theater, and hall. This gave Mr.
Hopewell a chance to remark
'Gentlemen, I just long to bo thjre.'
'Where V
'Why in one of those panics. Yes
rfir, I'd give a new tweqty-dollar bill
to be in the theater one night whtn
there was an occasion for a panic.'
'Why V
'Why because one cool, level-headed
man could stop the string as easily as
you could end up that barrel of flour.'
'Well, I dunno about that,' observed
one of the sisters. 'There is something
in the cry of fire, and when and where
it may be heard it startles and fright
ens. What would you do in a theater
in case there was a cry of fire and a
rush ?'
'l'd stand upon my seat, pull my
revolver from my pocket and shout
out that I'd shoot the first man who
attempted to crowd or rush. One cool
man would check the panic in ten sec
onds.'
While the subject was being contin
ued the grocer went to the rear end of
tbe store, poured a little powder on a
board and gave three men tho wink.
Directly there was a bright (lash, yells
of 'fire !' and 'powder!' and every
man sprang up and rushed. Hopewell
didn't spring up and speak of shooting.
On the contrary he fell over a lot of
baskets piled between him and the
door, got up to plow his way over a
rack of brooms, and when he reached
the sidewalk he was on all fours, white
as a sheet, and so frightened that he
never looked back uutil he reached the
opposite side of tho street.— Detroit
Free Press.
How Small t'ox 1M Carried.
Our attention has been called to tbe
fact that one way in which small-pox
so mysteriously appears in communi
ties, is by the visits of intinerant ped
lars who go from house to house laden
down with packs of domestic articles.
These goods are no doubt purchased, in
many cases, in infected districts, or
from a store located in the house in
which were small pox victims, the pro
prietor of which, in order to dispose of
his effects, which he knows no one in
tbe vicinity will buy, offers them at a
sacrifice to these unscrupulous pedlars,
who then start out through the coun
try carrying with them disease and
death. Tramps, too, contribute their
share in spreading the disease, as they
are likely to be from infected districts.
They are often seen with cast-off eloth
"ing, which may have been given them
simply because it was infected and tbe
owner is afraid to use it, or they may
have been stolen from a house in which
was the disease. These garments are
frequently offered for sale for the price
of a meal or a drink of whisky, and
the person who receives them may be
tho means of causing dire calamity in
tbe community in which he may live.
These facts are worthy of considera
tion, and we hope that hereafter tramps
and pedlars will receive no countenance
or encouragement whatever.
A Small l'ox l'rctentive.
A correspondent sends in the fo 1
lowing: "There is no better or surer
protection from small pox than Darbys
Prophylactic Fluid (as unfailing as
Fate), a wonderful healidg remedy and
most powerful disenfectant that will
effectually eradicate the germ of dis
ease, prevent its spreading and effect a
cure, and is perfectly safe to use. It is
endorsed and recommended by emin
ent physicians and chemists. «

• Second.
Itecaiign they area genuine pharmr.ceutlcal prep,

Tltird.
Because they arc the only plasters that relievo
pain at once.
Fourth.
JVcauso they will positively euro diseases which

i'lltli,
Because over KOOO physicians ami druggists havn

Sixth.
Because the manufacturers have received tho

without the slightest knowledge of Instrumental
Music, to perform at once on the Instrument, we
have prepared a series of tunes embracing all the
popular Airs, printed in simple figures on cards to
suit the Instrument at a convenient distance from
the mouth-piece, so that II can be easily rt-ad.apu

musical knowledge, can perforin on this Instru

familiar with airs can play hundreds of tunes
without any cards whatever. The Musical Tele
