tle trees placing under them large
tubs OF water, upon the supposition
that the instinct of the mother insect
would prevent her from laying eggs in
fruit which was in danger of falling
into the water and carrying to their
death the larvae it contained suspend
ing from the branches cobs that had
been soaked in sweetened water, in
which il was affirmed the insect would
deposit instead of in the fruit all these
and many other equally ridiculous de-
vices have been tried, and heralded
as sure cures by those who have never
learned to connect effect with cause.
The true method of fighting the insect
is to take advantage of its peculiar
instinct, which on approach of danger,
and at the least jar, Prompts il to fall
and to catch it 10y Earring the trees and
bringing the weevils down upon sheets
or large cloths spread for the purpose
of receiving them. The best way Of
doing this, on large scale, is TO use
some portable. stretched sheet. DIR. Il.
). Hull, of Illinois, has earned the
lasting gratitude of fruit-growers by
the ingenuity with which he has fought
this insect. He first built a machine,
which was a sort of inverted umbrella
on single wheel. 1t proved cuinber-
sorie and awkward, and it's repeated
bumplngs against the trees, in spite Of
all precaution, very much njttred them.
This old machine gave rise TO several
notifications, one Of which, devised by
j. NJ. Ward, of Michigan, is very sim
pie Of con struction, and has been
used with ;iiftt satisfaction IN that
state. But preftrabl to all other tha
chimes for this purpose, is the portable
one last devised by DIR. Hull. This
contrivance consists of light cotton
stretcher, supported by broad bands
from the shoulders of the bearer, en-
aiding him to get close to the tree and
TO give IL . sharp blow with mallet
or hammer upon the butt OF a limb
that has been sawed squarely off
for the purpose, or upon a shouldercd
spike driven into the trunk, which by
this means is saved from injury. An
other way of capturing large numbers
Of the beetles is Ivy what is known us
the Ransom clip process first
brought prominently before the peach
growers Of tile country by Mr.. w. b.
Ransom, Of st. Joseph, Mich. The
process consists of laying close around
the butt Of the tree pieces Of chips or
bark, under which, according to their
instinct, great many curculios Sc
crete themselves during the day, and
may thus easily be destroyed. Ia view
of the nocturnal habits of the insect,
the philosophy Of the process is evil
dent, the beetles naturally seeking
shelter during the day, especially early
in the season when the weather IS
chilly, and before the females are much
engaged in egg depositIng. The cor
culio has some natural enemies aud
twogcnuine parasites which live within
its body, but to enumerate them in this
connection would render this article
too lengthy, and the reader who desires
information about them should consult
late chronological works.

z. Nj. Hall, a Chicago commission
merchant, has prepared the following
instructions for making and handling
butter:
]. Be particular to take the cream off
m the proper time and do not allow it
to stand too long before churning,
which should be done In the cool of tile
day, not failing to work ont all OF the
buttermilk while it Is vet hard. after
which let it be thoroughly worked in
clear cold water until it leaves the but
fer quite colorless.
2. A proper use Of the riabt kinds of
salt demands the most careful attention.
for too much destroys the sweet and
delicate flavor, aud an insuiliciency is
attended by well known results. None
should be used but Ashton's Liverpool
ttiar5. which is free from carbonate of
limo and al impurities common, 10 do
nestle salt, which are fatal to the safe
preservation Of butter aud meats.
3. The kind Of packages to be used
also deserve important mention. Sec
ond-hand ones should be invariably
avoided, for conclusions as TO cleanli-
ness SIRE commonly jumped at, and
while Jars andpails generally meet WITH
ready sale to the local trade, they are
entirely neglected by shippers, whose
competition has a wholesome effect,
and when the market is well stocked,
Such packages are of dull sale. All
things considered the New YoiG Gov
cred tubs and covered ash pals. for
btesent use are preferable, but il it is
desired to be well kept for any length
% time, tignt, woll-boumd oak butter
tirkins are Indispensable.
BE careful to pack the butter solid,
completely filling the package, keeping
The different shades OF color separate,
!of stieakedhtss must be avoided,
Spread piece of clean new bleached
cotton cloth dipped in brine, over 1t
neatly, tucking in at the edges, SO that
when il is removed il will present nm
inviting appearance to the buyer.
Packages before filling should be well
soaked in strong brine, TO neutralize IN
acidity in the wood, and prevent it's
tendency TO faint the butter. III it be-
tones heated It's delicate flavor is lost,
SO il is advisable to ship by express dur
ing warm weather. As trilling as these
points may seem, they are all important
to the desired end, and butter thus
handled and kept in cool, dry place
till sent to market, always commands
the highest price, affording pleasure to
the cOnsigueo and satisfaction To the
shipper, while neglect and indifference
are detrimental TO all interests and a
fruitful source of unwarrautcd COM
