This process was repeated until six cell,
had been completed in like manners
when the hornet laid aside Its trowel
and betook itself to other fields of labor.
The other day the nest was removed
and found to contain Larvae in various
stages Of development, from tho full.
grown chrysalis in the cocoon to the
young larva just hatched. There were
three larve partly changed to the chry-

PROTECTING GRAPES FROM INsECTs.-
The secretary of the Ohio State Horti-
cultural Society recommend covering
the clusters of grapes to protect them
from rot and inscts. "Covering the
fruit by slipping paper bag over each
cluster after the berries are formed and
letting itremain Till ripe is found a 9om-
plete protection from rot and also from
insects and birds. The bags are those
In common use by groccrs, the size six
by nine inches, and costing about 50 per
1000. They are fastened around the
stem Of the clusters with two pins, of
course allowing space for the fruit TO
grow. One gentleman near Cincinnati
saves from five thousand TO seven thou
sand clusters per year in this way,
largely Of Catawbas, and finds the uual-
ity very superior. The cost, including
labor, he estimates at only one third of
q cent per cluster.''

How tho Tyrolese Love.

There is a pretty Alpine hut inhabited in
the summer by the subject of his affcc-
tions The solitary life is one that could
only be made endurable by habit, iron
nerves and absolute indifference to danger.
The girl lives alone among her cattle. She
seldom secs single soul, except her fellow
servant who brings her the fortnightly sup
plies, or some surly keeper who is sure to
suspect her of being in league with his
enemies, the poaohers. "She has to tackle
the vicious bull single-handcd; she has to
tame the cow-no longer the docilc creature
that would come when she called her name
since her calf had been taken away from
her." She has to protect herself and her
frail habitation and her charges against
snow storms, thunder storms, hurricanes
and swollen torrents. One can fancy how
she looks forward to pleasant visit of any
kind, above all the visit of a lover. Yet it
is significant Of Tyrolcse self-restraint I'M
DER any circumstances that the pair to all
appearance are absolutely undemonstrative,
unless for what may be read in their eyes.
She docs not even offer her admircr her
hand, nor does he seem to expect it. Yet
should there bo rival suitors, and if the
young woman Is a tlirt, it will be seen that
his feelings arc the fiercer for being sup
pressed, and affairs are unlikely to be set
tied without bloodshed. The very indoor
amusements of the Tyrolcse are rough and
even savage, though they seldom bear
malice for anything that may happen.
a writer and traveller tells of a friendly
struggle in al inn parlor, where a couple of
companions at drinking bout interlocked
the middle fingers of their hands, resting
the elbows Oh the table, and struggled to
drag each other over. A muscle gave way
under the strain and one of them was hore.
lessly manned for life; yet, when the first
sharp burst of pain was deadencd and his
ilnger was dressed, the sufferer gave his
hand to the winner, and they ended the
evening amicably as they had begun it. So
at the rifle matches, they show the same
infieXible firmncss of nerve and body. We
took friend to one of them who was in
cllned to dcpreciate these performances.
The cynically disposed spectator changed
his opinion altogether when he saw tho
marksmcn at work. Hc remarked after
ward, that chad he not seen it with his
own eyes he would never have believed
that human muscles and nerves could re-
main so rigid and apparently motionless,"
and the shooting is more admirable that the
weapons are clumsy and antiquated. The
usual range is one hundred and fifty yards,
and he has counted five consecutive shots
In which "flvc marksmen, taken at hap
hazard, firing one after another, hit each a
mark the SIZE of sXpence." Such feats
are the moro astonishing if we consider
that the marksman has no rest either for
his body Or the unwieldy rifle.

Pioughin0 by Elcctricity.-At n recent
meeting OF the Paris Academy Of Sci
cnccs, NJ. Trcsca gave All account Of
some experiments in ploughing by elcc-
tricity which he witnessed at Sermaisc,
in the Marine. A Gramme machine,
making 200 revolutions per minute,
anu driven by team-cngine, was con
nected to a second Grammo ut n distance
OF i40 yards, and caused tho latter to re-
Volve at the rate of ,l40 revolutions to
the minute, the electricity produced by
the first machine being thus covertcd
into work. The second machine was
connected to third ut n distance of210
yards, and these two worked cables at
tached to n double Brabant plough.
According to Nj. Tresca, the experiment
was very successful, the work accom-
plished representing the equivalent Of
three horsepower, while one-half of
the motive power obtained from the
stcam-enginc was really transferred to
adistancc of more than 900 yards from
the furnace.

SCIENTIFIC,

putcdnized Cdoutch0uc.--.M. Bouohut
has recently introduced to notice of the
members of the Academic des Sciences
CuiraSSe of vulcanized CaOutchouc.
which he has used with success for the
treatment Of cancerous and other tu-
mors of the breast. In this country
there has been much division of opinion
upon the utility Of pressure in the treat
ment OF cancer, some surgeons regard
Ing 1t as hurtful, or but rarely useful,
others attributing to it great retarda-
tion of the rapidity of the growth of the
tumor or even cure. The surgeons of
Middlesex Hospital studied it systemat-
lcally some years ago, and gave an UNI
favorable report. The theory of the
plan Is certainly good; neodlasia, like
a healthy tissue, is dependent upon Its
blood supply for vitality and growth,
and complete anaemia causes the death
OF Il tumor, rs 1t does of patch Of brain
substance. 1t will be remembered that
hlr. llaward last year rela led at the Clin-
tcal Society case in point. He liga-
turcd the left lingual artery for q re-
current epithcliOma Of the tongue the
tumor sloughed away, and fortnight
before the patients death from blood
poisoning the tongue was quite healed.
In just the same way isch;einia will i'm
pun Viz Vitality anu SO lesson the grow II
of II tumor. The difficulty is rather in
the practical application Of the theory.
The knowledge that we now possess of
the mode Of growth of cancers gives us
at least one important indication. If
we have to deal with neoplasia that
grows at the periphery by gradual in
illtratlon Of the surrounding tissues, it
is plain that, for pressure to be useful,
1T must be applied around the tumor
rather than oyer 1t, where by compress
Ing and obstructing the Capillaries, It
would cause overfullncss Of those at the
circumference. 1t is the periphery of
II cancer that is its active part, and we
must, therefore, produce ischaemia
around and not in the tumor. In the
application Of the treatment this must
be obtained by the careful adjustment
OF elastic pads or cotton wool, and
as the whole success OF the plan
depends upon the skill with which this
Is done, too much attention cannot be
given it. We cannot regard pressure
as substitute for removal Of Z cancer;
but in the frequent cases where this is
impracticablc 1t appears to be the
best substitute at present open to the
surgeon. M. B0uchuL's cuirasse would
seem to be an Improvement upon the
spring pads and other appliances In use

AGRICULTURE,

The POISONING OF WEEDS AND In
sEcTs.-Gardcning Is such an innocent
occupation, 50 promOtive of gentle
thoughts and ways us to make the idea
Of using poison even to destroy vermn,
produce shudder Of reluctance, at
first thought of it. But the survival of
the strongest and the flttest is the old
est earthly law. The most ancient
marine fossils-the old Silurian fishes
discntombed by Hugh Miller from de-
posits OF incalculable antiquity-show
that even before there was dry land or
bird or beast, the stronger fishes were
qualified and purposely fitted, privatecr-
like, to prey upon their swarming in
feriors. MISREPRESENTATION IS the first
law of Nature" This adage may have
selfish sound, and is no doubt peryer-
ted In application for selfish ends, but
1t Justifies our modern methods Of quick
determination to the enemies of the
crops which the earth gives us only at
the cost of resolute and perscvcring
struggle, and skill. l have just been
giving rose bushes second and currants
third syringi,ig with dilute infusion
OF helleborc, using a brass syringe with
the rose which gives the finest spray.
1t Is quick sure death to the voracious
larvae, and 1t leaves the foliage clean,
whole, bright, and competent to bring
the blossoms and the fruit to full per-
fcction. 1t seems effective too, against
tho white leaf-hoppers that infcst
Roses and Grapc-vincs, and suck the
juices from their leaves. With good
brass syringc-an invaluable house
and garden instrument-it is easy TO
keep foliage whole and bright. Such
materials as mix intimately Gas Paris
green, or sulphur, or SCOT, or kerosene,
with watcr) arc easily churned and
foamcd into thorough temporary al
mixture, and then most easily sent in
to every crcvicc and corner in which
insect or mildcw can lodge, with
force, speed, and dircctness, too, that
nothing else equals, Carbolic acid is
now recommended for paved yards, etc,
where we once strCwcu salt, to be an
noycd with its deliqucsccncc long after
wards; and where We found it look
still worse to have n poor woman or
boy all DAY spudding the grass bit by
bit from the chinks with an old knife.
In contrast to such methods, the appli-
cation OF Il spray of very dilute ct.rbol-
ic acid, during sunshine, is Il very brief
and easy job, and is said to be entirely
effective. For strong single weeds in
lawns, Il drop or two OF strong acid is
spurtcd from little oil can upon the
crown of the plant, which may be
pierced with an iron point the better to
receive it.
