The Nntional scour =.

It is estimated that the annual damages
caused by the ravages of insects and worms
exceeds $3.50 000,000in the United States alone.
Truly an enormous loss! Yetit sinks into insig-
when compared with the ravages Of
that more terrible scourge, Consumption,
which annually sweeps hundreds of thousands
of human souls into eternity. The causes of
consumption are various, depending in every
instance for the development OF the disease
upon the scrofulous diathess, or temperament,
of the victim. Thus the same cause which
will produce in one person an attack of acute
disease or y sight nervous prostration, will
engender consumption in person of scroful, us
habit. That consumption can be cured by
proper treatment will be readily perceived
when-lhe exact nature of the disease is under.

wtnterlmg Bees.

Those who are DESTROYS of wintering
their bees successfully, should now keep
a vigilant eye on their colonies. A diff
ference of locality sometimes makes a
difference in the condition of stocks !;
apiaries that are only few miles apart,
differing in the amount Of stores gather
ed, one may be scarcely making a living,
whilst another, few miles distant, may
be storing surplus-owing to the local
showers. saK
July, being very hot and dry, AID also
the first part of August, bees in this vi
cinity gathered only honey enough to
keep them rearing brood rapidly; conse-
quently at the present time august 220
hives are crowded with bees; August IS,
we hived the largest swarm of the season.
Swarms as late as this occasionally fill
their hives, and have suficien' stores for
wintering, but as genera. thing are un-
profitable, only partially filling their
hives with comb, and either freezing or
starving the following winter. We've
been blessed with a. glor ou' rain this
week; one of the old 6arxies "trash
meyers and gully washers" and all ma
ture rejoices. Bee pasture is improving
and swarms will be in order; these should
be returned as far as practicable and
