a Sure Cure for the Chiuch mug.

We learned in conversation with Judge En-
mons, of st. George, that he has tried remedy
which was communicated to the Nec York TriJ-
unc by a farmer in Iowa. 1t is too late to profit
by this knowledge this year, but wise men always
seek to treasure up the knowledge gained by past
experience, that they may make practical applca-
ton of it in the future.
Judge Emmons tells MS, and we also hear it con-
finned by the observing farmers, that the chinch
bugs first make their appearance in the wheat
fields in little clusters, and then they spread ont
from those points over the field. The clusters of
bugs may be found early in the season by Obser-
wing the grain. The stocks of wheat turn white
after being attacked by the insects, and
thereby indicate the exact locality of the destroy
ers. When they first show themselves they can
easily he destroyed by pounding them into the
ground with mallet, or by rubbing them with the
end of q board.
Judge Emmons saved abOut four acres of wheat
by destroying the clusters of bugs before they had
spread out over the field.
He feels confident that he might have protected
his whole crop if he had commenced in season.
Now let every farmer make n note of this, and
not forget to thoroughly test it next season.
If this is really SO, and Judge Emmons thinks
there is no doubt of it, the discovery is worth
millions npOn millions of dollars to the Western
farmers, for by means of this knowledge We may
battle this destroying pest if not eradicate it al
together. The chinch bugs have increased with
such alarming rapidity of late to Justify the ap-
prehension that they might drive wheat from the
country, rs the weevil did a quarter of a century
ago from New England

Remedy Agalust sunstroke.

My attention being aroused somebody writes to
the Frenden Blatf, of Berlin-at the beginning of
the war by repeated deaths of soldiers caused by
the heat during marches. l will state a remedy,
which the Bedouins and tribes of Arabic NOmads
of Palestine applied with good success in eases of
sunstroke, and Of the efficacy of which myself and
eighteen of my travelling companions, whose
names am willing to make public were witness
es on the 23d of March, 1866, near the Dead Sea,
at temperature of about 126 degrees fahrenheit.
One of our party who had not needed the warning
to protect his head against the rays of the sun by
wrapping around it veil of white, soft null, had
to bear the consequences. Struck by the intense
heat, he suddenly fell from his horse. His eyes
were broken, his tongue paralyzcd, and his hands
cramped together In an instant one of the Be
douins accompanying MS, jumped from his horse
and pulling lemon ont Of his pocket, he cut it in
two and with the expressed juice he washed the
patients face head and hands, after which the lat
ter recovered SO far, that We could ride to the
Jordan river n distance of six miles, on whose
shady shores he could rest q few hours at the end
of which he had entirely recovered.
The above is a simple true fact, and well worth
to be taken into consideration.

About SOFIA Water.

Soda water is simply plain water heavily char
ged with carIonc acid gas, the gas being evol-
we'd through the action of sulphuric acid on lime.
Formerly soda water was made with soda and
tartaric acid, but as the sulphuric acid plan is
much cheaper it is generally adopted. The foun-
tains charged with soda water are subject to a
heavy pressure, and when the work is carelessly
done they not unfreqnently explode; sometimes
causing loss of life. Soda water without syrup,
if unimpregnated with minerals is a healthy and
pleasant beverage, having slight biting, singing
taste in the mouth, and assisting in the work of
digestion when taken into the stomach. In Eng
land it is generally taken by snObs with dash of
whiskey or brandy in each glass, and is found to
he the best kind Of an antidote fqr the miseries
which always follow a.night of debauch, in that
its acidic qualities act to cleanse the mouth,
quench the burning thirst, settle the stomach and
vivify the nerves. In this country, however,, it
is usually taken with syrnps favored with some
sort of fruity essence, of which the chemist has
given us an endless variety. In this state it is
more palatable, but nos ~ healthy.
Soda writer is deeteriOus, mostly Oh account Of
the lead it holds in solution. Being conveyed
through leaden pipes, by the action of the car
bonic acid gas rapidly Oxidizes the metal, which
is held in solution by the beverage. Lead, as is
well known, is a dangerous poison. When the
weather is hot, and the beverage in demand, the
danger is not so great, as the fontan is exhausted
before it has time to become thoroughly impreg-
mated.

The War.

We had the pleasure Of a call, yesterday, from
Mr.. George Kimball who is so successful fighting
chinch bugs with tar, as We stated yesterday.
His account of the operation of the invaders is
laughable. He first tried blowing them up with
train of powder, on Pittsburgh scale, but only
succeeded i'm helping them into the field. The tar
fertilization is the only complete barrier. He
takes watering pot filed with tar and hot wa
ter, and goes entirely around his corn field each
day, keeping the line fresh all the time. Mean
time the enemy is constantly making flank move
ment around the line, which he persistently
outgenerals by lengthening it, and has driven
them into the woods. He has also dug small pit
holes at intervals outside the tar linc into which
the bugs fall on their march, filling hole six in
ches deep in a few minutes. These Mr.. Kimball
destroys by pouring over them hot water and tar.
BY this persistent fight ing Mr.. Kimball will save
his field, at an expense of perhaps Sl5.-Larrence

The .Rca C.ent.sn n,s,or,.

As the old "red cent has now passed out of use,
and except rarely, ont of sight, like the cold oak
en- bucket" its history is matter of sufficient in
terest for preservation. The cent was first pro-
posed by Robt Morris, the great fnancier of the
Revolution, and was named by Jefferson two years
after 1t began to make its appearance from the
mint in 1892. 1t bore the head of Washington on
one side and thirteen links ON the other The
French revolution soon created a rage for French
ideas in America, which put on the cent, instead
of the head of Washington, the head of the God
dess of Liberty-a French liberty, with flowing
locks. The chain on the reverse was replaced nv
the olive wreath of peace. But the French liberty
was short lived, and SO was her portrait on our
cent. The next head or figure succeeding this
the staid, classic dame, with fillen around her
har-came into fashion about thirty or forty wears
ago, and her finely chiseled Grecian features have
been but slightly altered in the lapse of time.

PRESERVING HAMS THROUGH SUMMER.-Make
a number of cotton bags a little larger than your
hams; after the hams are well smoked place them
in bags; then get the best kind of sweet wei! made
hay, cut it with a knife, and with your hands
press it well around the hams in the bag; ne the
bags with strings, put on a card of the year to
show their age, and hang them up in the garnet
or some dry room, and they will hang FIVE years.
and will be better for boiling than the day yon
hung them up. This method costs but little. and
the bags will last for 40 years. No flies or bugs
will trouble the hams fhay is well pressed around
them; the sweetening of the hams will be taken
up by the hay, the hay will impart fine flavor TO
the hams. The hams should be treated in this
way before hot weather sets in.

Where cowslips scatter their gold.

Where whispering pne-trees grow,
And fragrant leaves Of the winter-green,
With their scarlet berries glow.
But thy song il hushed, dark bird of the night
And faded the last gleam Of red;
