Potato-bugs are so troubling Wisconsin
farmers that sermon on their viciousness
and worthlcssness is inserted in one of the
papers of that State. The writer censureS
Noah for having preserved a pair of potato
bugs and a pair of fleas in the ark, and
thinks it was "a mighty small piece of bust
ness" 1t thus relates the result of an effort
to utilize these insects
"A year or two since an enterprisinS
manufacturer of liquor tried crushed potato
bugs to color wine. He gave them fair
trial, but at the end of six months found
that they didn't color the wine particle,
better than the juice of bed-bugs does, and
that the flavor given the wine was not us
good rs that given by the bed-bug juice:
There was one more objection. He could
catch bcd-bugS all seasons OF the year, Dut
could not find potatc-5uss only about SIX
or eight months in the year. lie has pro-
nouncrt curses upon potato-bugs, and
declared them good for nothing"

Protect your melon, squash, and cucum-
Der vines thus: Take sticks four inches
long and onc-half inch in diameter; pine is
best. Wrap one inch of the end in piece
of cotton or linen. Dip this in turpentinc,
and stick one or two in each hill, leaving
only the wrapped part above ground. The
odor OF the turDcntine does the business.

D1pLoM Oscar Commettant, the
feuillctonist of the Paris Steele, says he
overheard the other day the following con-
versation between two distinguished young
diplomats. A very tall and dry gentleman,
a sort of Don QuiXote in modern costume,
suddenly enters the room: ooh, look at
that fellow what ridiculous head he has
got :" cxclaims one Of the young men.
:.Why, that is my father replies the
other. "You do not say-that Is your
father: Well, then, if you should see my
father, could tell YOU you would find him
look q thousand times more ridiculous"
= All, bah YOU astonish me-" No, it is
the literal truth !" Whcreupon these two
excellent sons and rising diplomats cor,
daily shook hands amid loud laughter, and
narted cOmpanV.

earthquakes are more likely 10 OCCUR III ccI-
tain seasons of the year, and while the
earth is in certain positions with regard TO
the moon. They often attend volcanic
action, though Mr.. Whitney thinks it "not
reasonable to suppose that-the internal
forces having once found vent for their
energy in the eruptive action-the vibration
Of the crust, which can hardly be looked on
rs ANYTHING else than the result OF the
struggles between expansive force on the
one hand, and the pressure and tenaclty OF
the superincumbent material on the other,
would be suspended. On examining the
records it will be found that there are many
instances which show clearly that earth
quake shocks, previously severe, have
ceased entirely at the moment of the erup-
ton OF some adjacent volcano; while there
IRE other instances in which severe earth
uuakes have been felt some time after great
eruptions in the vicinity had commenced"
1t appears that there is likely TO be an oc-
currence of maximum Of earthquake
shocks about the time of the winter solstlcc,
and q minimum at the autumnal equinox,
and also that whenever disturbance Is
going on the frequency Of the shocks is IN
creased by the passage Of the moon over the
meridian of the place in question. II this
latter statement is really fact, then these
results, says MIR. Whitney, "would indicate
that the moon has an action on the interior
of the earth somewhat analogous to that
which it exerts on the ocean-thc time Of
greatest frequency of shocks agreeing with
that OF the highest and lowest tides. The
great interest OF this investigation will be
easily understood, since it bears very di-
rectly on one Of the most yexed questions
of modern geological science = namely,
whether the interior Of the earth Is really
In liquid state, or sufficiently so to admit
Of It's yielding to the attraction of the sun
and moon In such degree AS to produce 4
sensible result
