at that moment came up from the cabin,
and he also was Informed by Mr. Fairfax
that he had orders for his arrest
The ladies' of the suite coming up at the

very efTcetiug scene, as 1t became apparent
that theyw were to be separated, They ex-

In a private conversation, it is supposed
that they gave TO Enstis md Mcfarland

that they were also TO be- transierred.--
Their baggage was brought up and exam-

AGRICULTURAL,
Took tn Your Trees.

3 An ounce OF prevention rs worth pound o. cure.
At this season of the year, when the
trees. and more especially the fruit trees,
are denuded of their summer foliage, the
time is most propitious and oppOrtune to
make those necessary examinations as TO
insect eggs, which the health and the pros
perity Of the tree and It's fruit crop during
the coming season demands. The trees be
ing entirely divested Of leaves, other OBJ
jects concealed during the sunI2ar are now
exposed to view, and hang out in bold re
lief, inviting our etf0rts III behalf of theII
immediate removal The pendent follicles
of the drop worm Of the last season are
now particularly conspicuous. True, many
of them are deserted hQJitacula Of the
males, bat many or all Of those large
plump ones contain the pupa case or the
female, filed with eggs in many instances
numbering from two to four or FIVE hun
dred, each Of which contains in embryo,
a young drop worm that will be excluded
therefrom about the Goth Of May next, or
as soon as there is heat and foliage suff-
cient to hatch and sustain them. These
follicles should all be carefully clipped off
with a pair Of sharp pruning or other
shears, fixed to pole long enough to reach
them, and then all carefully burned.
But in addition TO these, there are 9TH
er enemies to vegetation that may in some
measure be circumvented by little pre-
yention at the proper time. The eggs Of
the American Tent Caterpillar the female
of which deposits from three to FIVE hun
dred in number, in girdle around the
smaller branches of apple, pear and cherry
trees, are now also distinctly visible, where
they exist, if q close examination be insti-
tuted 1t is we'll known that these cater
pillars appear sometimes in large numbers
very suddenly, and in an incredibly short
space of time spin web over the leaves
and feed at leisure, free from interruption
or injury By wind OF rain Where these
appear on q tree they ought to be immedi-
ately removed by clipping off the branch
affected with pruning shears, and burning
or singeing them in a smart fire; but by
far the better plan is to remove the eggs,
These girdles of eggs can be seen as plain
ly and almost at as great a distance as a
bracelet can be seen on lady's wrist.
The eggs of Plant-lice or ophjds, and
those Of bark-lice or cgcctae, may also be
seen on close inspection, and those on
small trees can be removed by an apTlica-
ton Of soap suds applied with a stiff brush
thoroughly rubbed on. Every pleasant
day during this and the coming month
should be devoted to this work.-Faymer
and Gardener.

1886, several old Celtic tonbs were discov-
cred near Bergorac Under The head of

been placed there beside the dead By the
heathen friends who had buried them. per
haps l, 800 or LOO years before. These
seeds were carefully sowed by those who
found them, and what do you think was
seen to spring up from the dust of the
dead!-beautiful sun flowers, blue corn
flowers, and clover, bearing blossoms as
bright and sweet as those which are woven
into wreaths by the merry children now
playing in our fields.
Some years ago a vase, hermeticaIly
sealed, was found in mum,nv-nit IN
Egypt, by the English traveller Wilkinson,
who sent it to the British Museum. The
Librarian there having unfortunately bro
ken it, discovered in it few grains OF
wheat and one or two peas, old, wrinkled
and as hard as>stone The peas were plant.
ed carefully under glass on the 4th Of June
1914, and on the 4th day of July of tIe
