The Potato Bug and Row TO Extern
mate it.

The advent OF the Colorado or potato
bug this season has been much in ad-
ygaann!c.e . of last year and the numbers
observation is that they do not destroy
the plant as rapidly as usual, but the
immense nun. Der OF eggs laid by them
insures q future supply OF ravenous bug
greater than last year. 1 notice they
lay their eggs in clusters on the leaves
OF the potato and are so numerous that
we may expect to have much trouble ia
preventing the destruction of the CROP
There is an enemy, however, making Us
appearance just now, in the form of a
small scarlet insect which devours the
egg of the potato bug, and if farmers
will not destroy this little friend of
theirs, supposing it to be a depredator
also, it may prove TO be the exterEina-
tor of the pest. Close observation will
be required to direct the efforts of ex-
termination. We are now trying Paris
green, l ID. mixed with 10 lbs of flour
or plaster Paris, and spriEkled when
the dew is on the plants. Great care
should be had in the use of Paris green,
as it is deadly poison. Courier

The Village Paper.

"The little village paper" is the best
paper in the world. No other contains
the marriages and deaths, to say nothing
of divorces and births; no other relates
the accidents happening before the
doors of the villagers /; no other gives
the time of the next ball, picnic, or
political meeting; no other discusses
the affairs of the town and county,
the arrival of new goods on the mar
chants counters, or of a new hat on
the editors desk. Without paper the
town that has ever enjoyed we'll man
aged one, feels indeed lost. The we'll
edited village paper is the most well
come visitor at the door of the villager
and farmer, and is, in the same proper
ton, the best medium for advertising.

Railroad WhistIing.

On some railroads the art OF whistling

LET Us CONSIDER. the intro
duction of distilled spirits in the six
teenth century, they have been habitu-
ally prescribed as remedies. We know
that alcohol, in all its forms, is PERM
cious to health. Knowing these things
and that under the system of treatment
which includes their use, the mortality
among the sick is, and ever h been.
enormous, is it not worth while to try
the effect of remedy which combines
in-their highest excellence the qualities
of Tonic, an Alternative and Regula-
tor; contains no mineral bane or muir
derous alkaloid or alcoholic poison !:
does its curative office without pain and
with uniform certainty? Dr. walkers
Vinegar Bitters fulflls all these condi-
tions, and is now effecting the most ex-
traordinary cures, in cases where every
specific of the faculty has ignominious-
ly failed. Consider, in view of these
facts, whether any sick person is justi-
fed by reason and common sense In de.
Ginning to test the virtues of this unde-
filed and irresistible remedy.
