After the pests have passed beneath tho bark, they are concealed and can not easily be reached with insect icides. They should then be kill ed by cutting them out, always cutting lengthwise rather than crosswise of the bark, or by piercing them with a pointed wire, when they will die. This, however, is a great loss of time, and is, of course, after some In jury has been done to the tree, By far ihe best plan is to prevent this injury and the necessity of cutting them out by covering the base of the trunk of the tree with some liquid material that will pre vent the moth from laying its eggs, or, destroy the krvas be fore they enter the bark. The best time of year for this is the latter part of June, when the base of each tree should be spray ed with boiled lime-sulfur wash, either commercial or home-boiled, the same as for San Jose scale, applying to each tree from a pint to three pints, according to siz9. The best way to do this is with a spray pump, with a short extension red, carrying the nozzles at an angle, but where there are only a few trees it can be applied with a whitewash brush. Painting near the ground and below with whitelead and raw linseed oil will serve the same purpose, and be safe, as has been proven by Prof. H. A. Surface in his experiments. J. L. Shroy, of Lancaster Co., writes to Prof. Surlace that he has succeeded perfectly in pre venting the borer by rubbing the base of the tree with equal parts flowers of sulfur and salt, in June and again in August. north of Needmore near the oJd Reunion Grounds, Saturday eve ning, July 17th.

When he returns he asks the companv questions in turn, which they must answer in the manner of the adverb they have chosen. For instance, if they have chosen "sweetly" for their adverb they must put an extraordinary amount of sweetness into their replies, but if they have chosen "snappily" they must answer in an equally disagreeable maner or in a spirited way. The object is for the person who asks the ques tions to guess from the answer what adverb has been chosen.
