Clean Shocking Corn.

Among the multitudiniocus insects that in
fest grain, and especially corn, there is
none, PERHAPS. nore destructive than the
wecyil. (lsnown zoologically, believe, as
the Chill Bug" or Corn .Borer,") and
any effectual means ofprotection against tho
ravages of this insect would be desideratum
to corn growers. In the Patent Office Re-
port for 1854, the Agricultural division.
MIR. Montgomery, of Colorado, Texas, states
that he has tested with complete success,
plan for preserving corn against the raya-
ges of the weevil 1t is to store the corn
dry, and in good condition, in air tight
cribs. My cribs, says Mr.. Montgomery.
are built of logs, pointed and plastered with
clay, and shielded all round'" Mr.. Mont
gomery, however, does not state-and I
regret the omission-whether his corn Is
hnaked (shuched is phrase better under
stood with us) before it is put up, or wheth-
er it is housed in the SAuck
Corn being the most valuable of all the
cereals, its preservation from the ravages Of
insects is as important, and deserves IA
much consideration, as its growth and as
all growers of the article SHOULD impart
such information as they may possess on the
subject, I will contribute my experience
For some years | followed the example Of
my neighbors, and housed my corn in the
shuck that is put it in the barn or crib
without stripping the shuck from the ear
and, much 10 my annoyance, invariably
found. es the summer advanced that the
: rn would be much eaten by the weevil
So much so frequently as to leave little elso
of the grain than the outer sholl Five
years age, when harvesting my corn, | put
up portion CT it in the usual way with the
shuck on, and the remainder was clean
shuchea. ard put into separate house
the object being 10 ascertain whether both
parcels would suffer in an equal degree from
The depredations OF the weeyiis.. The result
was, that the corn housed in the shuck was
infested by the wecvil as in previous
years, while that which was clean shocked
was as sound during the succeeding sum-
iner aad fall as when first harvested, and
scarcely weevil to be found among it.
Since then, and for the last five years, my
corn is hauled from the field to the barn
yard, where it is throwa from the wagon
into heaps, and entirely diyested of the
shuck before it goes into the barn. Tho
of five years has confirmed tho
result of my first experiment; and my old
corn in the summer and fall is as free from
weegil, and as firm and heavy as when bar
vested the preceding iall.-Cwrcsponaens

The Milk Disease a! the West.
ST. LOUIS, Nov. 81, /

To those going west to make themselves
homes, let me say, avoid Livingston comfy.
On, y especially about Pontiac, for in that
section the people and cattle are subject .to
disease which they cal the milk disease >
The disease is entirely unknown and pn-
heard Of IL mary other pats Of the State.
The residents where this disease Occurs ere
careful not to have it known, as it would
destroy the sale of their property this ac-
counts for this being so little known. Gke
disease first occurs .@mong the cattle, and
the first symptom is the appearance OF weak
ness in the limbs of the animal, which in
crease until they stagger, emaeiate and die.
1t is called tLe milk disease. because if an
one eats Ct tie milk from the COW, which is
affected with this disease, or the butter made
from the milk Of such COW, on the beef of !
creature SO diseased, ,the person sill soon
be sick With the saale aicktes1 the individ-
ual becomes weak, and tsemhlcs, followed
by excessive vomiting prosti sion and death,
As they say, lie dies like the cholera. -.
1t would seem that the cattle get the disease
from some poisonous .l..ant, and that Trough
them it is communicated to the human sys-
tenn. VIXEN they have the least suspicion
ti.at an Of the stock are becoming affected
with it, they start them OFF upon the run.
and if they show weakness, they are salts
fed that it is upon them, and govern them
selves accordingly. -Lo,reH Coarier.

added that rivals to these monsters of the
