The Colorado Potato Bug has appeared
III full force, but where the proper pre-
cautions have been taken, the crop of
early potatoes can. it is generally Believed
be saved. The sirrest plan seems to be to
Kill all the bugs you can find, destroy the
yellow eggs which en- be found on the
under slte OF the leaves and sprinkle with
lime. Paris Green ami ashes or plaster,
mixed one part Paris green and two parts
ashes or plaster, and sprinkled over the
vines will Kill the bugs. This, however, is
dangerous poison, mjulio us to the soil
and we would hot advise our farmers to
Use it. a strong aecoction of May apple
leaves sprinkled over the vines will, it is
said, preserve the vines. 1t is necessary
to renew it after every rain as it may be
washed oft.

Destructive Hail Storm,


An unusually destructive storm visited
n portion Of this county beginning near
MI. Olive, about miles north of Wood
stock and extended along Iumlling Run
and across the river to the Warren county
line. The hail stones we're very large, some
measuring three inches, and others said
to be as large as a goose egg. On Il number
of farms the destruction embraced every
thing of il vegetable character. The wheat,
grass and fruit crops were entirely des-
troyed and the corn crop seriously injured.
Windows were broken and some instances
the roofs OF houses We're destroyed. The
| rain was very heavy and somelofthe farms
sustained considerable injury from the
high waters. Hail and rain extended for
distance OF foar or five miles, hut the
ira 1 of the more destructive storm was
about mile and half vide No estimate
has rs yet been made OF the entire loss, but
| it isrgeneraily believed that 1t cannot be
| less than twenty thousand dollars ana
may be much greater. Among the suffer
ers the following gentlemen lost their en-
/ tire crops
Messrs. John Copp, Jonas Waterman.
John Wesley Hickman, james. NJ, and
Walter 7. Ra1ney. Jacob Richard, John
Funk, George j. Hupp, on one farm. and
| part OIL another, Obed S. Funk, Vim
stiekley, Elias Crabill. Jacob IIinkins, inc
J. Finley, Lawrence Halnmon, jr., John
! Ill. Newell, AID David and Daniel Speng-
/ Ter. The following gentlemen lost heavi-
| ly. but not their, entire crop: Josiah
Sticklcy, 4. J. Kelley. and No;ll Hickman
There may have been others whose
names we taled to learn. Farms entirely
swept OF vegetables, and woods stripped
of theit foliage at this season of the year,
as ifa fire had swept through tle1n,indicate
! the severity of the storm and the extent of
! the losses
1t seems hard to appreciate the fact that
the hail stones were IL; large as goose
egg. but the truth of the staten is
corroboratcd by other facts for instance,
on Mr.. Richards farm Il cart bed was filled
With hail, and. OH Sunday following the
storm, one gentleman gathered a halt
| bushe of hail stones.
Mr.. Tcwalt was Knocked down and
carried info Ills house. His injuries how
ever were not OF u serious character.
A calf was killed on Mr. Ramey's farm
A number of persons mentioned above lost
nearly ali their poultry.
Eight inches Of water fell during the
| storm. and through every small Hollow
torrents OF: water rushed sweeping fences
and everything i'll their course. Not only
was the fruit entirely destroyed, but Il
large nun Der OF trees were killed. 1t vas

visited this section OF country. About
