There is = very common prejudice
against the toad. By many he is
looked on with loathing and disgust
He is regarded as an uncouth and
worthless nuisance, that should be
abated at sight. But this prejudice
is ill-fouuded and unjust, as the toad
is not only harmless, but quite use
full to farmers and gardeners. They
should, therefore, be regarded as
friends, instead of being treated as
enemies. The eggs Of the toad are
usually laid in the water, but at
times, when this is not accessible,
they are laid in damp, dark places. and
in such cases they do not pass through
the tadpole state. While in the tad
pole state they live on vegetable food,
but as toads they live on insects, spi.
dcrs, ETC., They are exceedingly we'll
adapted to catching insects, having
tongue Of marvellous construction. It
is quite long. aud may be projected
six or eight inches, the tip Of it being
SO directed as to just reach the object,
and being covered with viscid, gum.
my substance, that causes the insect to
adhere to it, it is thus conveyed to
the mouth Of the toad and buried
alive. The movements of the tongue
in thus taking in fly or a bug are so
rapid that they cannot be followed by
the eye. The number Of insects that
a toad will eat is almost Incredible
A few Of them in garden will keep
it well rid of bugs, plant-lice. etc
They generally spend the day in some
dark. secluded spot. often a hole under
a sod or clod or the side of a rock.
aud in the evening they come out and
hop about in search of supply Of
live insects. They may be induced to
take mp there residence in the garden
by confiuing them for two or three
days to the place when they I'll be.
come quite we'll contented A board
laid about two inches from the ground
is just the kind of hiding place that
suits them. They are long lived, be.
ing often known twelve to sixteen
years old. and it is said one lived to
be 36 years old. On account Of their
propensity for DESTROYING insects, toads
should be encouraged to become per.
maneut residents Of our fields and
gardens.-(L. j. T. in Ohio Farmer.

SEED CoRN.-We do not appre
hend that the west will suffer from

fact that last fall was SO favorable that
most if not al the corn had fully reach.
ed maturity before the frost reached
rs; but there is one way that the far
rner can always tell whether bis seed
corn is good or not. It is very simple.
Let him take average kernels open
and examine the chit or germ and if
oy pressing it emits an oily substance.

others hand, If the chit or whatever
It Is called is soft aud dark and does
not contain an oily matter, it will not
