sire 10 purchase matched and single car
rage and draft horses, also colts, breeding

garded by those who are willing to take a
good price for their animals, 10 have them
in good condition.

vii be able, and willing, TO pay us good
price for our best animals. We wish TO

THE CURcULIo.-The Curcuio, That
most destructive insect to the plum, has al
ready commenced its ravages and those who
wish TO save moity Of their fruit, should
be on the lookout for TIE rascals The only
practical remedy for the evil is 10 60 to work
Systematically, every night, with a mallet
ard jar the principal limbs. The curculio
will yield to this rough treatment, and will
fall upon sheet which should be spread
ou on the ground for his reception. They
can be despatched at leisure. The curculio
is small black bug, about TIE size of lady
bug. and is armed with destructive lookin Q
proboscis with which it preioraIes the skin OF
the fruit. The eggs of the female are de-
posted in the cavity thus made, and the n>
jured fruit falls TO the ground before ripe
