Preservation Of Wheat from WeeYiI.


Numerous remedies have been pro-
posed to protect wheat from the de-
structive ravages of the weevil, but
most of them have been impractical
bic or too expensive. Mr.. Caillat, in
France, recommends the use Of tar,
as a certain and economical agent for
their destruction. He says:
"The efficacy Of tar In driving
away the weevil and preserving the
grain, is an incontestible fact. My
father had, a long time ago, his grana-
ries, barns, and the whole house in
tested with these insects, so much so
that they penetrated into all the
chests, aud among the linen. He
placed an open cask, impregnated
with tar in the barn, and then in the
gTanaries; at the end of some hours
the weevils we're seen climbing along
the walls by myriads, and flying in
all directions away from the cask.-
On moving this tarred vessel from
place to place, the premises were in a
few Gays completely cleared of these
troublesome and pernicious guests
The agriculturist who wants to get
rid of weevils, may, as soon as he per-
ceives their presence, impregnate the
surface Of some old planks with tar,
and place them as required in his
granaries. Care must be taken to re-
Few the tar from time to time in the
course Of the year, to prevent the re-
turn Of the insects"

means of destroying black beetles

They may, also, be destroyed by
pouring boilingwaterinto their haunts,
or setting mixture of arsenic, In
dian meal and molasses, where they
are found. Chloride of lime and
sweetened water will also poison
them.

PEPPERMINT. "A good deal of at.
tention is paid to raising Peppermint
in the vicinity of Detroit, Michigan.
1t is represented as a sure and pro-
cuctive crop. The plants are set out
by hand, and after two years, are
ploughed under. The Peppermint
is distilled into oil by means of a
still, which costs $3.50. Every farm.
er is provided with them. The ordi-
nary yield is eighteen pounds to the
acre, and it brings from four to four
dollars and half per pound.

Old DR.. Foster who practised in

We once heard a very extraordina-

and in the midst of his prayer I'M
luckily quoted the words thus: 'Oh,
Lord, we know thou art wise in thine
own concat!" and went On utterly un-
