The Potato Beetle.

learn from the Tribune that the Col
orado beetle is already causing some
trouble in the Eastern States. When
they first came here, FIVE years since, it
cost me several hundred dollars to pick
and destroy the old beetles. | now take
no notice of old hard.shell,' that lies
dormant all winter, but as soon as the
young come in force, which is generally
about two or three weeks after the first
appearance of the old ones, | get a tin
pan, similar to 4 saucepan, that will hold
a gallon. with a fine wire bottom, the
same as used for milk-strainers, and then
mix land plaster and Paris green in pro-
portion of 20 OF plaster to of green,
put a stick three or four feet long into
the handles Of the pan, and, with the lids
on, walk between the rows, busting where
ever l see the Larvae. One application
is generally enough. have never known
the second application to fail in destroy
ing the vermin for the season. 1t costs
me about a dollar per acre, material and
labor. The pans cost 80 cents each. |
have found the benefit tc the potato crop
from the plaster equal to the cost; so
am easy as to Colorado beetles.-Cor. n.

Curing Hay ia The Cock.

As | have never seen any method like
mine for cutting and curing hay mention
ed in your most valuable journal,
thought would write it out, hoping
thereby TO help some new beginner IN the
business. As it is an established and
admitted fact that we must cut hay early,
how shall We best preserve it in It's puri-
". Is the question. Now, those who are
lucky enough to have the wherewith to
purchase hay caps, tedders, &c, will tell
Us that single day will cure 1t quite
enough to have it keep well. But what
shall Others 10 who do not have these
helps
For more than fifteen years have en-
deavored to begin TO cut the clover as
soon a. it was in full bloom, but more re-
Gently have come TO the conclusion that II
the weather promises well, 1t is not best
10 wait for a few blossoms to come out.
Cut /, when the dew Is all of, letting 1t
lie one night; next day turn 1t twice If
the day Is hot, and put it up in small
cocks at night; open next day and im-
prove all the sunshine, Now, If fairly
wilted, make the cocks larger, and let
them stand one or two days, and If they
arc not dry enough so Ne not 70 sour IN
the nov, you must open out again. but Il
otherwise, lei them stand, only doing this
commence and cock them over, letting
them cure in the cock rather than by the
sun.
Persons using this kind Of feed for
their cattle, will make as much butter IN
December as in June, provided the cows
are in fresh milking condition. Clear
timothy, managed in this way, is worth
Fifty per cent. more than that which has
been cut and put into the barn and a.
lowed 10 become hot and burnt in the
now
| have often seen hay that had an ash
eOlored appearance aud very dusty, that
was not much better than bright straw.
DO not fear a shower IT the hay Is well
put up in good sized heaps, even if you
DO not have them capped. You can cut
and put up in the way described, and be
much better pleased with the result than
by hurryins it into the barn. In short,
cut it early, wilt IL, and dry it in heaps
rather than in the sun. have had, in
some seasons, weeks work in heaps be-
fore putting any in the barn. But it
must be remembered, ! changed them by
carefully changing the top to the bottom,
keeping them up in good shape. 1t re-
quires a little extra labor, some will say,
but when one gets ton in, it is almost
equal to a ton Of Western corn meal.

Cleaning Lamp ChimneyS.

Knowing by disagreeable experience
how troublesome this duty Is sometimes
made, wish 10 give your readers the
benefit Of a way | learned not long since
which works like charm" 1t Is as
follows: While the hand is held tightly
over one end Of the chimney, breathe in
the other until the inside Is damp with
steam, and wipe out Immediately with
tissue paper, if allowed to get very smoky
perhaps washing might be necessary, but
when cleaned every day, this way takes
but moment and keeps them looking
beautifully.
Washing lamp ehimneys-or rather
wiping them after they are washed-I
always detested for the first years We
used them, my mother practiced rinsing
in cold water after washing them, aud
then wiped dry with 4 cloth or paper.
Being 50 cold and wet Of course it took a
long time TO free them from streaks and
lint, and had she done it very oiten-for
that was before farmers who had plenty
OF tsiIoW Tor lights ieit - II they could
afford TO use kerosene except when com
pany came-would have found some cas-.
Ter method | have seen people leave
them to drain dry after washing and rims
ing, but the spots where drops or streams
had been, always showed when dry. Our
usual custom has been to wash them in
warm sOapsuds, then rinse in as hot water
as was safe, and wipe after draining q
moment-though while still warm-with
soft paper.
A few years ago We were told that
washing lamp chimneys made them brittle
and more easily broken theory have
little faith in,-that when not very dirty
they could be wiped out with paper TO
look very well, and thus be made to last
longer. We have sometimes tried it. but
they always looked 20 dingy and smoky
We didn't like the way; but had it Oecurr-
ed 10 US TO try moistenins them with
breath or steam, We should have made a
labor saving If not glass saving discoy-

f 100000 Hotel.
What Dr. Pierce l. Doing-'An Important
Enterprise.

We learn that DR.. K. V. Pierce, pro-
prietcr of the Worlds Dispensary," IN
this city, has perfected the purchase of
large lot Of land, on which he proposes to
erect a large hotel for the accommodation
of his numerous patients, coming hither
from all points Of the compass. The
land purchased by the enterprising Doc
tor is 2S5 feet front on Prospect Avenue,
running through to Fargo Avenue, 332
feet; also an adjoining lot extending from
the above to Connecticut Street. 1t Is in
the midst of our extensive system Of pub
lie parks, fronts the old and beautiful
Prospect Park, is but a short distance
from the Circle" in one direction, and
the Lake Front" in the other. The site
selected Is a fine one, being both beautiful
aud healthful is one of the highest pOr-
tons Of our city, easily accessible Yet
sufficiently retired to secure quiet, and
commands a pleasant view Of the lake
and river, as well as of the surrounding
city and country. We understand that
il Is the intention Of DR.. Pierce TO erect
a hotel at the cost of at least two hundred
thousand dollars, where those who come
to enjoy the benefit of his treatment may
find all desired accommodations under one
roof, instead Of being scattered over the
city, as at present. We are further given
to understand that our architects will be
invited to submit plans for the proposed
structure without delay.-Bufalo tx

RENARKs.-In the classification OF
plants by botanists. the order rosaeee In
cludes not only the great family Of roses,
hut also the apple, the pear, cherry, plum
ounce, blackberry, raspberry, thimble-
berry, strawberry. hawthorn, and many
others. The wild rose is a single flower,
like that of tho apple blossom. Double
flowers are likely to occur upon plants
usually bearing only single flowers, and
by propagation, by slips, or by grating
may be Perpetuated as double Towering
plants. Indeed, many of the choicest
flowers of our popular collections were
started in this way, by chance sport.
So the beautiful roses which came to
hand in a perfect state of preservation
upon the twigs of an apple tree are not
such an anomaly after all as If they had
been found upon lilac or SNOWFALL

We claim superior i0 all other kinds in usc, Tor
the following reasons:
Ist. The presser foot is always raised from the
fabric when the iced takes place, thereby present
ing no resistance 10 seams or ridges while feeding
81. The needle being In the fabric, moving with
the vertical feed bGr-wth It's full pressure on the
goods, renders the feed sure aud strong and the
stitch uniform in length.
81. The needle being in the goods AZ the time
the feed takes place, renders IL impossible to full
one piece while the other Is stretched.
4th. The rerficaI FEED bar being behind the
needle renders IL capable Of sewing elastic goods
making smooth and flexible seam with stitch
alike ON both slles-thus enabling the sewing OF
any number of tbicknesses without basting, and
operating with equal facility on the heaviest a.
well a. the lghtest fabrics.
In addition TO the foregoing invaluable aud In.
dispensoble features, which are peculiar TO this
machine alone, we urge the following additional
points:
lst. SimpiIcitv.-It has no under works 10 be
looked after or sc, out OF order.
2d. DuFabiify-Its working parts are made Of
the best improved steel are compact, strong and
durable.
Sd. EReioncy.-It is the largest machine man.
ufactured that Is adapted for family sewing; its
~ inch arm enables IL 10 10 greater variety of
stitching, from the lightest cambrc, through all
grades OF fabric TO harness leather, and DO IL go
we'll that the same machine may be used either in
manufacturing or family sewing with equal facil-
ity.
4th. Prdcficdbilily and EcOnOmy.-It runs At n
high rate OF speed, which, combined with its pc.
cuiar feed, enables the operator 10 turn the work
nj any Angle while The machine IL In full motion,
without changing the tension or length Of stitch
consequently IL can easily do in q given time one
third more work than any rotary or four motion
