EDITORIAL.
PIKO REFLECTS.
JN A recent article to the "near and
dear paper" we find this men
tion by Piko : "If Mr. Lee's life is
spared, his post office address, after
January 1st, will be "Senate Cham
ber," Harrisburg, Pa., and the agi
tators for the extention of the ty
rannical powers, now enjoyed by
the Blooming Grove Park Associa
tion, through their diabolical char
ter, to all similar organizations, will
get no encouragement from the
Democratic 22d District." Webster
defiues diabolical as pertaining or
appropriate to the devil. Among
the names of the incorporators of
the association upon which Piko
takes every opportunity to pour out
the vials of his wrath are- Lafayette
Weatbrook, John C. Westbrook and
Warren K. Eidgway, all of whom
have received at the hands of their
fellow citizens repeated evidences of
esteem and confidence. It is the
mark of an ingrate to thus reflect,
especially on the venerable John C,
than whom there could be no more
kind or faithful wet nurse than he
has been for many years to Piko.

MISSIONS DEFKVDJ5D.
Their Civilising Influence, and Cost
of Management.
The article entitled "Foreign Mis
sions" printed in your Valuable pa
per Aug 19th is of such a nature
that I cannot but say a few words
in regard to it It is, however, not
my intention to enter Into any con
troversy with the writer of that ar.
tide, nor shall these words be an
apology, for foreign missions do not
need any apology, nor shall this be
a vindication of the foreign mission
ary movement for its intrinsic vnl-
ue and high importance has been
recognized by men of the greatest
learning, standing the foremost
ranks of the scholars of. this and the
earlier centuries.
I am am astonished that the writ
er of that article can even .question
for a minute the fact that the work
of the missionaries in the slums is
more effective than the work of the
police. If he cares, and as an hon
est man he ought to care, he can
convince himself of the correctness
of my statement, that the mission
ary work in the slums is accompan
ied by greater and more permanent
results thon that of the police, by
coming to New York City, and go
through the slums accompanied by
a missionary who will point out to
him what the missionaries have
done. I question whether the
writer of that article is really an
unbiased reader of the Bible and of
history. In seems to me that when
the gentleman in question studied
the Bible anl ' history, all that
which he demands in others, i.e., a
mind free of any preconceived no
tions, was utterly wanting in him, or
he could not have mude such a thor
oughly talso statement as tne 101-
lowing : "That p"eople would make
it (the Bible) the literal and sole
guide would be a nation of Social
ists." How does the gentlernen
harmonize the following two pas.
sages in the Bible with his above
statement? "The first passage wi
find: Matthew, XXII : 21, and is
in answer to the question whether
it is lawful to give tribute to thosi
who are in authority. "Render,
therefore, unto Caesar the things
that are Cassar's.iand unto God, the
the things that are God's." And
again he said : "All things, there
fore, whatsoever ye would that men
should do unto you, even bo do ye
also unto them." Matthew VII : 12
Truly these are not the principles
of socialism, but if all our citizens
would live un to. 4Uese precepts,
Truly it is extremely difficult to
live in accordance with the precepts
of the Bible, not because "the en
tire civilized earth would have to be
entirely remodeled'," as that writer
wants ns to believe, but because
men could no longer indulge un
punished in their passions and more
thaa dubious pleasures. Therefore
it is far easier and more convenient
to slander the Bible and minimize
the good that has come lrom it, to
accept as true without further in
vestigation what the opponents of
Christianity say s, than to convince
ones self of the truth by careful and
diligent study of the results of the
work of the missionaries.
bince I have no reason to doubt
that the writer of that articla is a
gentleman, and therefore open to
conviction, I would ask him kindly
to read with an unbiased mind J . F.
Dennis' book, "Christian Missions
and social progress," published by
Jf. H. Kevell Co., N. Y. City. This
book will give him a true and honest
representation of the work of Chris
tian missionaries in foreign coun
tries. As to the other statement, "that
but 18 of the foreign missionary
funds ever reached the heathen for
whom it was collected," I emphat
ically declare it, even though it is
attributed to a minister, a misrep
resentaticn. The fact is that the
cost of administration is only 7,
as can be seen by the reports of all
reputable missionary boards, which
are published and can be bought.
The method employed by the dif
ferent boards of foreign missions to
collect money and transfer it again
to the different Holds, is perhaps
not the most perfoct one. but the
integrity of those men who have
charge of these matters is above
suspicion, and they are as earnest
and business-like in the discharge
of these duties as ought to be expec
ted of any honest and diligent busi
ness man.
Least but not last, if any man
makes a remark at another man for
the re:nark, "Judged from the fact
that he claims much that is not in
sight, I should set him down as a
D. D., etc., etc., "is doubtless in the
mind of the writer an attack upon
Mr. Carroll (though in fuct it is only
an honor) such a man should at
least make sure that he knows what
he talks about, and cot show also
his ignorance even iu things rela
tive to the affairs of this world and
especially hi owu government.
Though I do not want to say thnt
he ought to know every official, yet
I do not doubt that if he had known
that Mr. Carroll was Kupt. of a De
partment of the U. 8. Census and
never a D. D., he would not have
made such a blunder. Therefore
got the facts before you moke state
ments, or yon ore apt to mako your
self ridiculous even in the eyes of
those who sympathize with yon and
your ideas. H. H. 8.
THE HESSIAN FLT IN WHEAT
This insect, which is very abun-
dant in Pennsylvania, is often
known r 8 the "fly" or the "wheat
fly." It is responsible for a largo
amount of loss each year, often de
stroying one-quarter of the crop,
and is particularly injurious in the
wet seosons.
LIFE HIstoRY.
There are two broods of this in
sect this year. The winged fly np
pears in August and Septomler, and
scorches for the young winter
wheat to lay its eggs on, and places
them on the liiof blades, anywhere
from one to thirty on a blade. In
four or five days the eggs hatch and
the young maggots crawl down the
blade, enter the sheath and pass
down to the joint. Here they stay
sucking the juice from the plant un
til about thfe end of November,
when they turn brown, and horden.
This is called the flax-seed stage. In
this condition they pass the winter.
In the Spring, about the middle or
end of April, they change to the full
grown form, the winged fly. These,
at once begin to lay their eggs as
before, and the history as already
give- for the fall brood is repeated ;
the flies from this brood, appearing
in August and September to lay
their eggs on the winter wheat.
This, in brief, la the history of the
Hessian fly.
TREATMENT.
From what has been given it is
plain that there is no treatment of
the seed which will do any good,
nor is spraying of any possible use.
Treatment here must be in other
lines.
The best thing to do for the pro
tection of the wheat ftom the fly is :
1. Plont a small piece of wheat
early in August so that it will come
up early, and be found by the flies
when looking for a place to lay
their eves. This pieoo will, of
course, be full of maggots later
About the end of September plow
this under, and do not use the
oirfn.WbentthaBex11,veAry
their eggs in this early wheat and as
they die after egg laying, few will
be left.
2. Do not plant the wheat (ex
cept the small piece just spoken of)
until about September 20th ; by that
time almost every fly will have diod,
and there will be none left to lay
their eggs whon that wheat comes
up.
There is a tendency in Pennsyl
vania, as well as elsewhere, for the
farmer to got his sowing done a lit
tle earlier than the year bofore,
This is directly favorable to the fly
Wheat sown as late as September
20th will moke growth enough so
that it will not winter-kill, and this
method has been tried in States far
thor north than Pennsylvania for
many years with success.
3. Some kinds of wheat are less at
tacked by the fly than others. Roll
ing the field, with a heavy roller,
when the fields are smooth wid free
from stones, about the ffrst of Oct
ober, is of value in some cases
Letting sheep graze on the fields ns
soon as two or three blades from
each root appear, also helps, the
sheep eating the eggs of the fly .along
with the leaves. Crops on poor
land usually suffer most j hence the
use of fertilizers to enrich the soil,
aids in keeping down the insect.
4. Where the fly is already in
the wheat, cutting a little higher
than usual and plowing the stubble
under at once, will kill the insects
before they have changed to the
winged stage. Burning the stubble
is also beneficial at this time.
SUMMARY.
The fly must be killed or starved.
To kill as many as possible, plant
a small piece early, as a trap for
the fly to lay its eggs onv than plow
it under and thus kill the eggs from
which the spring brood comes.
To starve the fly do not plant un
til September 20. so that the fly will
die before it can find any wheat to
lay its eggs on.
If both these methods are used
to: ether and if all who raise wheat
iu any region will work together
to do this, but little trouble from
the pest should occur.
Many farmers in the State are
following this plan already and
with good success. One writes: "I
plant a trap piece early, and my
main crop late, and am never troub
led with the fly, while some farmers
in this township sometimes lose
one-quarter of their crop."
It results like this can be obtained
in such an easy way it will certain
ly pay to try these methods

WHEN TO PICK FRUIT.
The Agriculturist' of a Into date!
contains an article by C. A. Bus1,
kirk, of Indiana, entitled "When to
pick winter apples and pears," the
writer recounting his experience
and giving bis reasons siys, h
found by rending, the recommenda
tion to gather eorly, as early, in
fact ns the first blackening of the
sood.-i and before tho full ripening
and coloring in order to onlianeo
the keeping qualities of tho Irnit.
He followed the instructions so far
as to have his apples nnd pears pick
ed whilo it wns still hot wenther
leaving a few barrels of apples most
ly Ben Davis nnd some Kieffer pears
unirathered until near the middle
of November as n comparative test
He says those gathered in October
did not keep nearly so well as those
gathered in November and taking
out the loss by fall of apples from
the trees and all other causes and he
feels sure he would have hod 25 per
cent more apples and pears in good
condition had ho left tho whole crop
until near the middle of Novembor
Thopenr loss was greatest He
therefore argues in favor of late
picking.
Our teaching has been that poors
should be gathered when tho stem,
by lifting of tho fruit, parts readily
from the branch and that apples are
best if gathered before fully ripen
ing.
Kieffer pears have been quite gen
erality condemned, and one writing
in their defonse asserted that the
reoson wos because they were allow
ed tobecomo too ripe before picking
That if taken from tho tree early
and allowed to ripen slowly in a
cool dork place they were excellent
as to tast9 nnd quality. Probably
no safe rule con bo laid down as to
the time to pick fruit as much de
ponds on the saim. In loto O st
and early November sovoro winds
ore likely to occur, and it seems
reasonable thnt fruit which must
then be very ripo would nearly nil
be shaken from the trees. Our judg
ment is that the rule nbovo laid
down as to pears is a safe ono nnd
that apples should not ordinarily be
left Inter thon soy Oct. 15th, in tbii
section.
The subject is ono of interest and
we should like to heor from some
of the growers in this vicinity. I

SOME PAT QUESTIONS.
rromlnent Men flnced In Embarrafllnff Va
nltlnnn Through Them.
A simple question put In Parliament
a few years ago caused a laugh
LUiout'ioui ull fcngland, and defeated
a great measure. Mr. Curzon, then
Under Secretory for India, was making
a long nnd elaborate speech against a
measure urged by the opposition re
garding that dependency, as certain to
result In a loss to the Government of
many lacs of rupees. He repeated
with emphasis: "Consider! Not
pounds- nor guineas, but lacs of ru
pees!"
A quiet voice on the Opposition
benches asked: "Exactly how much
Is a lac of rujiees?"
Mr. Curzorf opened his mouth, stam
mered, grew red, and then, with Eng
lish candor, said:
"I really don't know." The Hous
laughed, and In that laugh he lost his
cause.
A somewhat similar scene occurred
many years ago In Congress. A pres
ent of Arabian horses, a sword, &c, ar
rived from the Imam of Muscat for
President Adams. A Western mem
ber, with some heat, moved that the
gifts should be sent back, with a let
ter from Congress, Informing the ruler
of Muscat that the President of the
United States was no king, but the
mltted to give or receive presents.
Another member arose. "Such a let
ter, Mr. Speaker," he said, "can easily
be written. Rut where Is It to be
sent? Where Is Muscat?"
There was no response. Apparently
not a member of the House was pre
pared to answer, nor could Muscat
then be found In any atlas published
In the country. It was found at last
on a German map. A civil answer was
returned, and the geographers made
haste to Insert Muscat In the next edi
tion of their maps.
Nothing perforates bombastic ora
tory like a sharp question. When
Burke, in the height of a labored pero
ration in Parliament against Fraive,
drew a dagger and threw It on the
floor, somebody made the act absurd
by saying, "Yes, that's the knife.
Where's the fork?"
Equally sharp was the reply of Pope
Plus IX., when the Cardinals met and
eloquently condoled with him on the
sufferings In certain villages from
earthquake and famine.
"How much are you sorry, my
brethren?" he Bald. "How many lire
does your sympathy weigh?"
The only answer possible to this
question was the rollef of the villages.
