# Domestic Encyclopædia (1802)/Corn-chafer

Edition of 1802.
​CORN-CHAFER, or Curculio granarius, L. a species of insects bearing a resemblance to oblong, soft worms. They are provided anteriorly with six scaly legs, and their hind is likewise covered with scales. Some species of these larvae are dreaded for the mischief they do in granaries; as they find means to introduce themselves, while small, into grains of corn, and there fix their abode. It is very difficult to discover them, for they lie concealed within the grain, grow slowly, and enlarge their habitation, in proportion to their size, at the expence of the interior meal, on which they feed.
Corn-lofts are frequently laid waste by these numerous insects, which devour immense quantities of grain. When the corn-chafer, after having consumed all the meal, has attained its full size, it remains within the grain, hides itself under the empty husk, and subsists alone: there it undergoes its transformation, and becomes a chrysalis; nor does it leave the grain, till a perfect insect, when it makes its way through the husk.
One of our foreign correspondents has communicated to us the following recipe for extirpating these predatory vermin, or preventing their devastations in granaries: Take three or four handfuls of the purple loose-strife, or willow-herb, or grass-poly, Lythrum Salicaria, L.; six or eight handfuls of water-pepper, or biting snakeweed, Polygonum Hydropiper, L.; and two handfuls of narrow-leaved pepper-wort or dittander, Lepidium ruderale, L.—put them together in a capacious vessel filled with water, several inches above the herbs, and boil the whole from 15 to 30 minutes, by a moderate heat. After taking it from the fire, add four or six onions, a few cloves of garlick, and half a pound of Epsom salt. When cold, sprinkle the floor and walls of the granary with this decoction; and, if the former be constructed of clay, the sprinkling must be two or three times repeated. The herbs here employed, should not be gathered or decocted, till they are immediately wanted, as they would lose their efficacy by long keeping: hence, the months of June and July are the most proper season for collecting them. Lastly, the floor ought to be previously swept, and completely cleared of all impurities, so that the decoction may be applied as a preventive, in the months ot August and September.
# Domestic Encyclopædia (1802)/Corn-cockle

Edition of 1802.
​CORN-COCKLE, or Agrostemma Githago, L. is an indigenous, annual plant which grows in corn-fields, and bears purple flowers in the month of June or July. It is very prolific, and produces a great number of pods, each of which contains from twenty to thirty seeds, somewhat resembling those of the turnip; they impart a strong taste and an unwholesome quality ​to the bread baked of corn mixed with them: such grain ought, therefore, to be employed in distilleries, or the manufacture of starch.
There is a variety of this species, which produces similar, but smaller seeds than the former, and exhibits a peculiar mode of vegetation, being found within the wheat-ear, one side of which is filled with good grain, and the other with a spurious one, produced by this weed. Hence, husbandmen have given it the significant name of ear-cockle. It is by no means so common as the former variety, but is generally attributed to bad husbandry, by which the land is exhausted of its nutritious qualities, and weakened to such a degree as to be prevented from bringing the wheat to perfection; because this plant is never found on lands that are well cultivated, and properly managed. It is eaten by horses, goats, and sheep.

The Hebrews were prohibited from using as food certain animal substances, such as (1) blood; (2) the fat covering the intestines, termed the caul; (3) the fat on the intestines, called the mesentery; (4) the fat of the kidneys; and (5) the fat tail of certain sheep (Ex. 29:13, 22; Lev. 3:4-9; 9:19; 17:10; 19:26).
The chief design of these regulations seems to have been to establish a system of regimen which would distinguish the Jews from all other nations. Regarding the design and the abolition of these regulations the reader will find all the details in Lev. 20:24-26; Acts 10:9-16; 11:1-10; Heb. 9:9-14.

Cloak
The word translated "cloke", i.e., outer garment, in Matt. 5:40 is in its plural form used of garments in general (Matt. 17:2; 26:65). The cloak mentioned here and in Luke 6:29 was the Greek himation, Latin pallium, and consisted of a large square piece of wollen cloth fastened round the shoulders, like the abba of the Arabs. This could be taken by a creditor (Ex. 22:26, 27), but the coat or tunic (Gr. chiton) mentioned in Matt. 5:40 could not.
The cloak which Paul "left at Troas" (2 Tim. 4:13) was the Roman paenula, a thick upper garment used chiefly in travelling as a protection from the weather. Some, however, have supposed that what Paul meant was a travelling-bag. In the Syriac version the word used means a bookcase. (See [119]Dress.)

Claudius

(2.) Claudius Lysias, a Greek who, having obtained by purchase the privilege of Roman citizenship, took the name of Claudius (Acts 21:31-40; 22:28; 23:26).

Council : Spoken of counsellors who sat in public trials with the governor of a province (Acts 25:12).
The Jewish councils were the Sanhedrim, or supreme council of the nation, which had subordinate to it smaller tribunals (the "judgment," perhaps, in Matt. 5:21, 22) in the cities of Palestine (Matt. 10:17; Mark 13:9). In the time of Christ the functions of the Sanhedrim were limited (John 16:2; 2 Cor. 11:24). In Ps. 68:27 the word "council" means simply a company of persons. (R.V. marg., "company.")
In ecclesiastical history the word is used to denote an assembly of pastors or bishops for the discussion and regulation of church affairs. The first of these councils was that of the apostles and elders at Jerusalem, of which we have a detailed account in Acts 15.

Courses : When David was not permitted to build the temple, he proceeded, among the last acts of his life, with the assistance of Zadok and Ahimelech, to organize the priestly and musical services to be conducted in the house of God. (1.) He divided the priests into twenty-four courses (1 Chr. 24:1-19), sixteen being of the house of Eleazar and eight of that of Ithamar. Each course was under a head or chief, and ministered for a week, the order being determined by lot. (2.) The rest of the 38,000 Levites (23:4) were divided also into twenty-four courses, each to render some allotted service in public worship: 4,000 in twenty-four courses were set apart as singers and musicians under separate leaders (25); 4,000 as porters or keepers of the doors and gates of the sanctuary (26:1-19); and 6,000 as officers and judges to see to the administration of the law in all civil and ecclesiastical matters (20-32).
This arrangement was re-established by Hezekiah (2 Chr. 31:2); and afterwards the four sacerdotal courses which are said to have returned from the Captivity were re-divided into the original number of twenty-four by |Ezra (6:18).

Covering of the eyes : Covering of the eyes Occurs only in Gen. 20:16. In the Revised Version the rendering is "it (i.e., Abimelech's present of 1,000 pieces of silver to Abraham) is for thee a covering of the eyes." This has been regarded as an implied advice to Sarah to conform to the custom of married women, and wear a complete veil, covering the eyes as well as the rest of the face.

Coulter : (1 Sam. 13:20, 21), an agricultural instrument, elsewhere called "ploughshare" (Isa. 2:4; Micah 4:3; Joel 3:10). It was the facing-piece of a plough, analogous to the modern coulter.

Cottage:
(1.) A booth in a vineyard (Isa. 1:8); a temporary shed covered with leaves or straw to shelter the watchman that kept the garden. These were slight fabrics, and were removed when no longer needed, or were left to be blown down in winter (Job 27:18).
(2.) A lodging-place (rendered "lodge" in Isa. 1:8); a slighter structure than the "booth," as the cucumber patch is more temporary than a vineyard (Isa. 24:20). It denotes a frail structure of boughs supported on a few poles, which is still in use in the East, or a hammock suspended between trees, in which the watchman was accustomed to sleep during summer.
(3.) In Zephaniah 2:6 it is the rendering of the Hebrew keroth, which some suppose to denote rather "pits" (R.V. marg., "caves") or "wells of water," such as shepherds would sink.
