These funds, until actually disbursed

REMEDY FOR CABBAGE WORMS
Heleboro, lime, salt and similar substan-
ces have been used with varied success
for the destruction of cabbage worms.
1t is now stated that bran and buck
wheat flour answers the purpose better
than other remedies that have been tried.
The bran is simply busted over the in
tested cabbages as soon as the worms
make their appearance. If the worms
are very thick, about handful of bran
is required to each cabbage head, and
sometimes it is necessary to 60 over the
plants a second time. A hundred weight
OF bran is sufficient for an acre. 1t
must be applied when the worms are
young. When they are full grown or
very strong, it does not appear to affect
them. The buckwheat -four is sifted
upon them by means of seive, in the
evening or morning, when the dew is on
the plants. If one application does not
destroy the worms, second should be
made. 1t is probable that wheat flour
hne Indian meal, or any other pulvern-
lent farnaceous substance would have
the same effect. American Gardener.

strong Drink ana Hard Times.

The mischief of the use of strong
drink, in an economical point Of view, i:
not thought of perhaps, enough, OF
pressed enough upon the public atten
ton. The direct cost, even to the mod
crate drinker, amounts to considerable
sum for year, 1t is probably much
larger sum than the man who spends il
thinks for. Then there are indirect losses
which in many cases are greater as by
time wasted in the places where liquors
are sold and drank, and through habits
of idleness and improvidence which may
be formed. The whole effect upon a
mans standing as to property is likely
TO be very serious one. 1t must be re-
membered that the gains of most peo-
pie above their necessary expenses are,
at best, but small. If, however, some
slight annual saving can be made, espec-
tally in ones younger life, he may reach
in time to comfortable position as to
property. If the margin he has is mar
row, it is the more needful to keep it all
Now it is just the narrow margins that a
costly habit like this of using strong
drink cuts off. 1t makes the whole DIFF
ference, with multitudes of men between
competence and poverty. Many families
of laboring men. now cramped and
Strengthened in their living, might fare
well, and save money, bnt for the cost to
the father, or the brothers, of this worse
than useless indulgence.
This is most appropriate matter to
be brought forward in these hard times.
1t ought to be pressed especially upon
the attention of our younger working
men. The great and useless expenditure
for tobacco can be treated of also after
the same fashion. IF both these things
could be set right, 3" the times would
begin shortly to grow easier and bright

that the coachman was lounging about

would not fetch the cream for her not.

gsllolrs falls Zines,
Top-Dressing---Hay is King,


NN' sAN 0NhV"s h"afs ~aA~1
1t is now becoming SO well understood
that hay is The crop for New England
and that corn costs nearly its worth in
producing, that it is waste of time to 60
over the ground in argument Any one
who has kept careful account of labor
devoted to corn will find it has cost not
far from seventy-fve cents per bushel,
This is for the average 81 hill farm" On
river or plain land it is grown somewhat
cheaper of course; so also may hay be
cut cheaper. Our average yield of corn
is about forty bushels per acre and is
worth ninety cents. With the same ma
nure we could grow two and one half
tons Of hay, which can be put in the
barn for sl.25 per ton, or cut, pressed
and carried to Boston market for $500
per ton. There it would sell for from
twenty-five to thirty-fve dollars per ton,
leaving large margin in favor of hay.
1t is hard for many of us to make the
change from grain raising to that of hay.
To such, and to all in fact, the following
plan is best: Plow in the fall such pieces
as are most in need of re-seeding, very
carefully turning all the sod. Then in
the spring put on a good coat of such
manure as will harrow in, and SOW to
barley, seeding down with grass and
clover. If any sods are left that the
roller will not level, put them into the
cart and thence to the hog pen. You
will thus get about fifty bushels per acre
of grain, not one whit inferior to corn
for feeding, and at less than half the
cost Of corn and have heavy hay crop
the coming year. Let your coarse ma
nure remain in the yard, or under cover
if possible, then in September put it and
the summer manure on your field as in
top-dressing for grass. Select field
having good amount of roots and put
on about twenty-five loads per acre if
you have it, or fifteen will do. In a
short time you will cut double the hay
you now do and of course keep twice the
stock. 1t is plain to all that the real
profit of farm depends ON the amount
of stock it will winter. Study carefully
the nature of your land, under-drain
such as needs, remove rocks and stones,
and the work of haying can be reduced
one half or more. The time devoted to
grain will remove all those unsightly
rocks from your field and leave the ma
chine free to play over your entire farm.
You can take up an acre or two each
year Of the old pasture, where nothing
but brakes and bushes now grow, and
soon add ten or more acres to your hay
field. Try this plan and succeed.

MIMIcKING A PREACHER the
days of Whitefeld, when hundreds were
converted by his preaching, +" lewd men
of the baser sort loved to indulge in
ridicule of religion, making sport of the
earnest preacher. A merry band of ca
rousers gathered, one evening, in an inn
IN Yorkshire, and cracked many joke
over their cups. At length, one of them
to add to the merriment, proposed to
take off Whitefeld's preaching. He
was a famous mimic, and could repro.
duce to perfection the gestures and tones
and even the words of the great preach.
er.
A Bible was brought, he mounted the
table for pulpit, and turned the leaves
of the holy book for text. His eyes
fell ON the words, " Except We repent, ye
shall all likewise perish"
The company laughed and applauded
his wonderful imitation of the tones and
manner of the great preacher but soon
their laughter ceased. They looked up
IN surprise and terror, for the speaker
seemed terribly in earnest. His words
were solemn and took hold of their con-
sciences, and his appeals startled their
fears. A profound silence spread over
the bar room. The Spirit of God was
too strong for the mimic, John Thrope.
The mock sermon was the means of his
conversion, and he went away, from the
scene of merriment to begin new life.
