Preparing for Potato Bugs.

Your correspondent In st. Lawrence
county will nnd, we fear, that the pota.
to bug is not SO easy in his ways IS he
seems to hope. Early planting will
prove no defence. The bugs, at the
West, emerge from the soil as soon az
the frost Is out, and may be seen pa
tiently watching for the young shoots,
and even going beneath the surface to
meet them. An ounce Of prevention
Is worth pound Of cure; 80 we would
suggest to Mr.. Moreland that he slice
potatoes, sprinkle them with Paris
green, and place in his field, when the
shoots are just breaking the ground.
This will destroy nearly all the beetles
before they can lay any eggs. The
farmer may then rest contented until
the first crop Of lary@ 10 half grown.
when tablespoonful of Paris green
should be mixed with eight or ten
quarts Of water, and kept we'll stirred
with broom brush and sprinkled over
every hill. This Is all that Is required
and will be found far more lasting and
efficient than any application Of poison
mixed with plaster. This soon falls or
blows of, but the other seems to psne-
trate the pores and to remain quite a
length OF time. killing both bugs and
lsrvse SO completely that I have some.
times crossed my potato field without
being able to and single survivor. I
think two applications will generally
suffice for crop Of Early Rose, and II
judiclously applied the potato bug will
cease to be q terror. Sliced potatoes
sprinkled with poison should be used
after the vines are dead. to finish up
the last Of the survivors.-[Country

Connecticut Experiment Sta
ton.

Those who have not looked into the
matter carefully, says the Connecticut
Courant, have little idea of the great
benefit conferred upon the state by the
Agricultural Experiment Station. The
small appropriation of $4,000 has al.
ready probably saved to our cultivators
many tens of thousands of dollars.
Connecticut was formerly flooded with
inferior and fraudulent fertilizers, com.
mended and sold as "the best" Now
manufacturers. agents, and dealers in
such articles give this state "wide
BERTH" Take an illustration. A New
Jersey concern sent plausible agent
here with fertilizer, commended in
the highest terms. pronounced cheap
at sixty dollars per ton, but 1t was sold
''for introduction" at ffty-five dollars.
The Experiment Station got hold Of
some samples, and after careful analy-
sis found 1t worth at best only eight
dollars per ton /! The sale was stopped,
and those who had not already done 30
have not paid for that delivered.
Many other inferior articles have In
like manner received notice to "quit
the state" and have done SO. Farmers
can now get what they need, and have
confidence that in making purchases
they are not throwing their money
away. This confidence extends the
sale of good fertilizers, to the manifest
advantage Of the whole state, as the
general production OF crops is thus
largely increased. The Station IL also
engaged In testing the purity and vital
ity Of graes and other seeds offered In
the markets, a work which Is of more
Importance than most farmers are
aware. Mr.. e, H. Jenkins. formerly
in the Yale Scientific school, who has
recently spent some time In the Ger.
man Experiment Stations, and 10 now
associate director and chemist in the
Connecticut Agricultural Experiment
Station. brought over some samples Of
seed authorizations largely practlced In
Germany, which can be seen ct the
station by any one interested. The
Process consists In grinding up quartz
rock, carefully sitting out the particles
OF proper size, and dyeIng them to the
color of the seeds to be adulterated.
Here are artificial specimens Of various
clover seeds, for example. 30 perfect
that only practiced eye would detect
from one-fifth to ons.third of the adul-
terated seeds mixed with the genuine
product. These artificial limitations of
clover seed are supplied at one to three
cents per pound, to be mixed with
seeds worth fifteen to twenty cents per
pound. II the Station can do as much
Ia this direction ~ 1t has already done
In the matter of fertilizers, farmers will
get better interest on the approprla-
tions placed at the disposal of the Sta
ton than in almost any other way In
which their money could be invested.

CONDUCTED BY ALBERT CHAPMAN,
Well-Preserved Tomatoes.

The following remarks on the COM
meroisl importance Of the tomato, by
the editor Of the London Garden, will
be read with interest by rslsers and
consumers;
There has been such u marked in'
crease In the taste for tomatoes during
the past few years In London, and the
vast public which has to depend on the
market has such difficulty In getting
good supplies, that 1 venture to make
known to your readers the following
facts; Tomatoes are extensively grown
as field and garden crop throughout
Canada, New England aud the United
States, from Long Island to the shores
Of San Francisco Bay. They grow ev'
erywhere well; in the fertile soils Of
the eastern ststes, 10 the winterless
gardens of the Pacific coast, or In the
wastes Of Utah A generation ago the
tomato was only grown as curiosity
here and there; 1t is, perhaps, more
used by the Americans than any Other
product Of the garden, and tomatoes
canned by houses Of good repute are
such a precious gain throughout the
autumn, winter and early spring that
II may be as well to warn the public
that Some samples now sold as "best''
in conspicuous shops In London, are
very bad indeed, They contain green
unripened fruit, and have peculiar
scrid taste, as If the can and the acidu-
lous properties of the tomato had quar-.
relied. recently ordered sample OF
the Bordenton "a New Jersey brandt,
and gathered from the present years
crop. 1t has just come to hand. Any
thing SO satisfactory In the way Of pre-
served fruit or vegetable 1 have not
tasted; the contents taste as we'll as II
gathered from the plants fresh. There
Is no admixture of any foreign body,
such as occurs In tomato sauce--only
the pure tomato, which requires to be
warmed to be perfectly enjoyable.
Doubtless there are various other
brands equally good. am surprised
that the producers do not open agencies
here, for there Is no doubt that even at
present, London could consume the
produce Of many scores Of fruit farms,
If such brands as allude to were OBJ.
tainable. 1 may add, that have no
interest in the matter beyond the de-
sire to make known a real boon to ev-
cry housekeeper who cares to have such
a delicacy always at hand. 1 first
tasted good tomatoes in America few
years ago, and have always thought
them Indispensable since, though can
rarely get them good in London. Un-
fortunately the autumn supplies Of
"freshn tomatoes in our markets are
often bad, spotted, and even rotten.
The very extensive supplies Of toma-
toes that come from Lisbon, must be
gathered too green, and are often In
bad condition on arrival. This year,
too. the potato disease virulently at.
tackled the crops Of tomatoes In the
London market gardens. Therefore,
this admirable tomato-preservlng in
dustry is Of as great. If not greater, val.
ne to US than to the people among
whom 1t orlginated-from their desire
to enjoy through the long white win
tiers Of eastern and northern America,
the produce of their summer fields.

At the meeting of the Republican Ma
tional Committee, which was held at WASH
ington on the 18Th inst, it was decided 10
hold the Republican National Convention
at Cincinnati on the 18th of June. A
Washington dispatch says that the voting
in the committee vaoillaled between Gin
cinnati and Philadelphia and Cincinnati
and Chicago, till finally the choice was
de by a majority of one, 1t was not to
Cincinnati as a city but to Ohio as a State
that the honor of choice was awarded,
and Cleveland would have had equal con-
sderation with Cincinnati but for its def
cient hotel accommodations. There is a
good deal of random talk about the influ-
ence of the different candidates in the Sc
lection of Cincinnati, and as Senator Nor
ton was . member of the committee and
advocated the claims of that city, and as
several of his friends Interested themselves
in the same direction, it is by many re-
garded as a preliminary advantage gained
for him, The members of the committee
say, however, that Cincinnati was chosen
because Indiana and Ohio both vote in Oc-
tober for State officers, and the influence OF
the convention would be favorable to Re-
publican success in those States. The
claims of Ohio to tue convention were
strengthened by the splendid canvass of
the party last Fall, and the success achiev-
ed. The date is not so early as many de-
sired, but ;he canvass will be longer than
usual, because no States now vote in Sep
TENDER, and, with two exceptions, none
vote till November There is a great deal
OF good feeling over the result, and no Sc
rious disappointment is manifested by
anybody. 1t is thought by some that the
Democrats will follow the lead Of the Re-
publlcans aud hold their convention in
Cincinnati at later date, TO overcome
whatever influence the Republican Con.
vention may have exerted over the feeling
in Ohio aud Indiana.

"A large company of old and young,
numbering over one hundred, made Mr..
and Mrs. Chas. Clisbee surprise visit on
the evening of Jan. 10. The party consist
ed mostly of members of the singing school
which Mr. Clisbee has been holding this
winter. Although the term has expired he
has been extending the evenings gratuit-
ously, and for this, as well as to express
their appreciation Of his efforts TO instruct
them, the people united their contributions
and presented the family with a buffalo
robe, together with a set Of dishes, knives
and forks, also set of teaspoons. From
the friends came the material for three
dresses a teakeitle and many other small
er articles, also a sdhall sum in money. The
members of The Broad Brook grange gave
Mr.. Clisbee a fine warm overcoAt. To the
short presentation speeches Mr.. Clisbee re-
piled in a most fitting and friendly manner,
showing that the visit and presents would
be valued far beyond their intrinsic worth.
After hearty supper furnished by the la
dies, the company gave themselves up to
the enjoyment Of the evening, which APP
peared TO be done in most thorough man
ner. But AS every party must separate
sometime, so did this. every one leaving
his good wishes with the family.

The recent amnesty debate in the House
of Representatives has awakened general
attention throughout the country, and been
the subject of widely differing comments.
On some accounts this clearing away Of the
plasters from the green and bleeding
wounds Of the late civil war;" is to be re-
GREETED, and yet it was inevitable. The
truth IL, the debate sprung up naturally
from the elements existing in the House.
1t would have TO come sooner or later, and
It was better soon than late. 1t was called
for by the political situation of the country.
Over eighty members had taken their
seats among the peoples Representatives
who had been Identified with the cause of
rebellion. Speaker Kerr had assigned a
majority Of the chairmanships of his COM
mittees TO the States which but a few years
ago claimed to be outside OF the Union by
assaulting its life. These ex-secessionists
were consolidated with the old Democratic
party which controlled the House, had a
large minority in the Senate, held about
half of the State Governments of the Union
and boosted of being able to elect the next
President. Under these circumstances it
was, surely, worth while to ascertain the
real spirit and purposes Of the Southern
and controlling wing of the Democratic
party, and 10 learn how their brethren of
the North stood affected toward them.
This is just what has been effected by the
recent discussion.
The speech OF Hill of Georgia was a rev.
citation. He claimed to be one of those
who had come back as conquerors, intend
ing yet to punish the loyal masses of the
North for the part they took in the rebel
lion. lie showed that he relied on the SER
Witty of the Democratic party in aiding
the men of his views to carry out their pro.
gramme and the language and manner Of
Mr.. S. S. Cox showed that the reliance was
perfectly we'll founded. The tone of the
majority of the Northern Democratic pa.
bate also betrays the same readiness tc
yield anything in the way of principle ia
order to retain the services of their South
ern fellow partisans. Such, then, have
been the Developments OF this unexpect
ed debate, confirming, Indeed, the view
ofthe most thoughtful Republican observ'
ers Of the signs of the times, but enlighten
ing thousands who would have received
the information in no other way. The re-
suit is worth immeasurably more than /
cost.
With regard 10 ibs central point raised
