The discussion was fitthsf neatinuad by
Hon. Samuel WATSON, Of Ellsworth, J. NJ. Car.
pepter, Esq, of Pittston, Hon Samuel F. Per-
ley, of Naples, Col. 7. 8. Lang, of North Vas
salboro, N. Foster Esq, of Gardiner, T. G.
Jersey, Esq.,, OF Portland, John F. Anderson,
Esq, of Windham, and others.
Mr.. Farley asked Mr.. Bracket if the wheat
nudge feeds on any other grain, and if we cease
to raise wheat we starve them out. Y VIZ
Mr.. Bracket replied that so far as his knowl-
edge went the medge did not feed on other
grain, out might if forced to do so. He never
read of any such occurrence.
Mr. Farley inquired snow we can best con-
tend with the moth or apple worm?"
Mr.. Bracket thought Dr.Trimble's recon-
mendation of hay bands in autumn, placed
around the tree and larger branches, good
remedy. They gather on the band and can be
picked off. f,.4aa-f IS . 4H .-. ...frs
Col. Lang gave some interesting information
| as to raising of cabbages and made some prac-
| teal suggestions as to the prevention of the
| insect ravages on that plant. Out of 1000
| head he had saved only 1000. Z
! An interesting discussion was mere elected
| as to the value of salt as an application, some
| favoring and some opposing it.
| Mr.. Foster, OF Gardiner, suggested a quart
! of soft soap dissolved in two gallons of water,
adding handful OF salt, as a good remedy
Col. Lang advocated raising cabbages only
| for one season on the same spot, and spoke of
| the striped bug as one of the greatest annoyan-
I ces of the farmer in the raising of the plant
He had successfully tried "the cotton pad" and
recommended in gardens thin layer OF cotton
slightly colored dark, spread over the cabbage
] and gathered closely at the stock and as trap
to catch the bug in.
/ Mr., Perey objected to offensive and other
applications as permanent remedy, as the
rain could wash them off
| Mr.. Hersey spoke of the successful use Of
kelp at Cape Elizabeth where some of the
finest cabbages in Maine were raised, and sug-
/ gesded the sea coast as being the best place to
raise them.
Col, Anderson also made some excellent
suggestions, and asked Mr.. Bracket as to what
the canker worm is - sg
i Mr.. Bracket replied he had never seen one
in Maine. 1t belongs to the moth species. The
females are wingless and crawl up the tree
and lay their egs in the crevices. Destroy the
females before they reach far up and you kill
off the whole tribe. -e e..+..s
The discussions was continued until half
past nine and was very interesting.
| At its close the President announced another
Farmers Meeting" at the same place this
Wednesday evening at 1-2 o'clock, subject
| Breeding of Farm Stock" EhsEal.23
Col. Thomas S. Lang of North Vassalboro,will
open the discussion. His well known reputa-
/ ton as stock breeder is sufficient to war
rant most interesting treatment of the sub
ject and valuable discussion.
The meeting then adjourned. On

 No S4 Market Street, Pittsburgh SIR:--l take great pleasure in stating that. after having suffered from dyspepsia for about fifteen years at some periods much more than others, have been entirely cured by the use of Goes Dyspepsia Cure. My friends know that of late years my case has been an extreme one. had great suffering from eating any kind of food, and on an average would yomit about one-third of my meals, in sour indiges- tible mass, When the severe attacks would come, would lose all strength and be utterly helpless. Some of the attacks would be so Sc were that for days together 1 would not retain anything on my stomach, save little dry tcast and tea For years l knew not what it was to pass five consecutive hours without in tense pain. From the time 1 took the first dose of this medicine, l ceased vomiting, grad ually all soreness passed away, and flesh and strength returned, and ever since have been able to eat any kind of food Set upon the table Six monhts have nov passed without any symptoms of the return of the disease. My case was considered by all, even physicians, so marvellous, that for a time it was feared it nigh be fictitious; but permanently cured, that can conscientiously recommend Goes Dyspepsia Cure to all victims of Dyspepsia.
