Cure for Discomfort.

\ Philadelphia gentleman became tired
of his house, which he had built for him
self in the country, and determined to
sell it. He instructed an auctioneer,
famous for his descriptive powers, TO adj
vertiSe it in the papers for private sale,
but to conceal the location, telling per
sons to apply at his office. In few
days the gentleman happened to see the
advertisement, was pleased with the ac-
count of the place, showed il to his wife,
and the two concluded it was just what
they wanted, and they would secure it at
oncs. So he went to TIE office of the
auctioneer and told him the place he had
advertised was such one as he desired,
and he would purchase it. The auc-
tioneer burst into laugh, and told him
that that was the description of his own
house where he was living. He read the
advertisement again, pondered over the
grassy slopes" beautiful vistas,"
smooth law n fine garden "Splen-
did fruit,n Z" good neighborhood,' etc,
and broke out: " Is it posSiblel Wei,
make out my bill for advertising andex-
penses-for wou'd n't sell the place row

The Value of Beets for Stock.

Having planted last year a small piece
of light, loamy land, well MANFRED, with
nangolds-or, as some term them, the
giant beet-I found the yield to be at the
rate of thirty-five tons per acre. The
first Of December l commenced feeding
them to three cows, at the rate of one
peck per day EACH measured after they
were cut, together with one foddering
of hay per day, the remainder of their
fodder being cut straw. l continued
this feed for three months, and the COWS
at this time were in better condition
than they were the previous winter, at
the same time in the winter, when they
had been fed wholly on hay; they also
gave more milk. In my opinion beets
are the most profitable root that we can
grow for stock feed. The sugar-beet |
have no doubt is the most nutritious, al
though think the mangolds the most
profitable to cultivate, as the yield is
much larger. If our farmers would
grow more roots than they have been in
the habit of raising to feed their stock
during our long and cold winters their
hay would hold out better, and their
stock, think, would be in better condi-
tion in flesh and health. A large amount
of straw and coarse fodder may be fed
to stock if we have some kind of roots to
feed with it. Some will probably say
that 1t takes too much manure to grow
these roots. Try small piece of light,
loamy land with them, and IN my opin-
ion you will not think that you have
wasted your manure. - Correspondence

The Flat Headed Apple.Tree Borer.

"ADELIA," the chronological CORE
spondent OF the Chicago Tribune, writes
as follows concerning this destructive
insect:
Although the larva of this borer enters
the tree in similar manner to theround-
headed borer, Its habits are entirely diff
terent-the latter living nearly three
years in the tree, while the former
Fem0rdtd-remain only two at the far
thest, and by many are supposed to re-
main only one year in the tree.
The eggs are deposited by the female
the latter part of May or first of June
in the latitude of Peoria, Ill, in the crew.
ices of the bark, or under loose scales OF
the trees-sometimes more than one be.
ing found together. This beetle belongs
to the family Buprestid9, and may easily
be observed basking in the sunshine on
the Trunks of the trees.
The head of this borer being wide and
flat, the hole is always recognized by its
peculiar shape. The tail of the insect is
| always found curled up over the back
They are very destructive when several
are found III one tree, as they sometimes
| girdle the entire trunk or limb.
The lava of the round-beaded borer
attalnS much larger size than the one
we are now describing. The tlat-headed
! borer breeds readily in decayed stumps,
and is more liable to be found in dis
eased trees than in healthy ones. When
about to transform ii always cuts pas
sage back to the outside, leaving Ia thin
covering of bark then retires, and,
making a smooth cavity, changes into a
chrysalis-thus providing for itself an
easy passage when just Matched andweak;
so the jaws of the larva are much stronger
than those of the beetle, and 1t thus
forms the passage for the exit o. the
beetle from the tree; and, in three weeks
from the formation of the pupa the true
insect emerges from the tree through this
prepared way.
The beetle is OF greenish- black color
above, with brassy polish, The size
varies considerably, and, 10 the eye not
educated TO recognize them, they re-
Semhle other members of the same fam
rs, so that other insects are often taken
COR this. Ii attacks the apple and the
peach; and besides, the soft maple, oak
and other forest trees. To the soft maple
especially it causes extensive damage
sometimes Kidding them through and
through.
Soap being offensive to this insect, 1t,
has been much used as preventive to
their attacks; but since these insects do
not Confine their depredaiions to the
trunks of trees the soap should also be
arplrei 20 the larger branches. The
Mineral Point tribune. (Mineral Point, Wis.) 1869-1938, 1875-06-10

application should be made twice in the
season-once toward the end Of May,
and again in July or August. Besides be-
ing obnoxious to the borer, it also is ben
eticial in Kidding the bark of moss, and
keeping il smooth. 1t has also been
found beneficial to paint the trees with
a mixture of soap and lime; and the
=" Farm and Garden" would add, ifcarbolic
soap is used, or little carbolic acid
say one part of impure crystals to twen-
ty OF the soap-so much the better. In
cases SO treated the larvae have been
known to make their way out, fall to the
ground and perish.
The presence oflthe young borer is
easily detected by discolored spot, the
cracking of the bark, or a sawdust-like
appearance. If examined in the sum-
mer it will be found just gnawing into
the tree, and can be detected by drop
OF moisture exuding from the bark. SO
1t may be easily extracted with knife,
or, better, by means of bent wire.
