IN THE ORCHARD.

Watch for insect pests. If the trees are
infested with bark lice, take them at the
time the young are moving forward, and
kill them with wash of strong soap suds,
in which little carbolic acid is mixed, as
heretofore advised by. the Prairie Farmer.
When canker worms are infesting the trees,
syringe thoroughly with London purple and
water. Set traps for codling moths, or use
hay bands about the lime trees.
Look for the first appearance of tent cater
pillars early in the morning and late in the
evening, when they are clustered in their
nests. After they get size they are not so
gregarious. Have an old broom along, fss-
tened to suitable pole; with this the worms
and web may be easily taken away. Kill
them in any manner that may suggest itself
Beating on hard ground is pretty effectual.
Do not serape trees because the bark il
rough. Many people keep their trees scrap
ed down to the quick. They think it look:
nice. 1t is wrong; the bark is for protection
If the trunk is mossy, it shows the tree il
not doing WELL and that it wants fertilizing
Scrape the old scale away in this instance
wash with very strong soap suds, and cult
vate and manure the orchard. So if insect
have found lodgment in the rough bark
scrape itaway so the trunks may be easil,
washed. Do not scrape to the quick tn
bark is the skin of the tree and should no
be wounded. A light scraping is good, tn
moss shows that the soil is too wet, ant
probably poor. Understandings and manur
ing will help this. ... ......
In going over your orchard, keep an ey
out for bad shaped heads, and abradin
limbs. When you find them, prune. d
not wait for the regular pruning season
There should be none such in well-regu
lated orchard. Let your pruning be q
light as possible. The more top, the NOR
root; and in the West thick head is no
Objectionable. In fact, the thicker th
better so all parts of the tree get faj
amount of light. There is, as rule, NOR
damage done by injudcious pruning tina
by no pruning at sll.-Frairie Farmer.

WHAT WAS LEPROsY IN THE BIBLEq

Every one knows how large a space Is
occupied by the Levitical laws regarding
leprosy, and most persons who have thought
about it have probably been perplexed by
the fact. The subject has hitherto been OBJ.
scure, owing to our insufficient knowledge of
the varieties and symptoms of that terrible
disease. Indeed, 1t is only within the last
few years that medical investigations, car.
red on In the countries which are its special
homes, have cleared up all the debated fea-
tures,except, perhaps its supposed contsgi
cusness, in regard to which the committee
of our London college Of physicians ICON.
slider that the weight of evidence is decided
ly on the negative side,' although there is
a considerable amount of testimony that
"the disease is contagious in a certain stage,
when the ulcers are running" Now all this
recent information is condensed, from which
it appears that the true leprosy of the law
was not the common white leprosy, iepra
vulgaris, or dry letter, which, unless ac-
companied by ulcers, did not render the suf-
ferer unclean but Etephdntiasis, Under eth
er of its chief forms, the tuberculated
and the anmsthetic, the various symptoms
of which in their earlier stages are delineated
with remarkable accuracy in the rules laid
down for the priests guidance. Should the
student of the law wonder why physical
disease should be the subject of such min
ute religious legislation, he will find enough
=. Al - Al,
ample explanation is to be found in the
sanitary aspect of the subject. Egypt was
in ancient times the chief seat of this most
malignant and horrible of diseases, which
as a poison in the blood descended from
parent to child with frightful persistence
and the Israeltes in their crowded and SER
vile condition, must have been peculiarly
liable to contract t,and carry its fatal germs
in their desert wanderings. Hence the
necessity, to their prosperous development,
of hedging it round with the most stringent
restrictions, and by the laws of uncleanliness
and separation checking its spread through
tainted. Of course, we are not precluded
from seeing religious meaning underlying
these sanitary ordinances, and Mr.. Clark ac'
cordingly sums up his dissertion by adding
that "the proper treatment of leprosy as q
disease of the body became a type of the
proper treatment of sin, not through 9
mere resemblance which might recommend
itself to the fancy, but through the law be

TABLE ETIQUETTE.
REMARKS ON WELL KNOWN RULES Fol
THE BENEFIT OF THE UNINITIATED.

Bread should be broken not "cut." In
"breaking" bread use curb bit. ..
Do not fill your moth too full, rather al
low some of the food to get into your mus
tache.
Split biscuit with your finger, instead Of
opening it with knife like an oyster. If
the biscuit be hard, beetle or wedge are
admissible in the best of society.
Do not pick your teeth at the table. Pick
them at the dentists if he has good assort.
ment to pick from.
Salt should never be put on the table
cloth, but on the side of your plate. If
however you want to pickle the table cloth
in brine, you must put salt on it, of course.
A barrel of salt table cloth would come in
play should your pork give out during the
winter. g..
Do not rattle your knife and fork. A
knife and spoon will be found more mu-
sical.
Eat your soup from the side of your spoon
either inside or outside.
Do not take game in your fingers. This
however, does not apply to a game ol
cards.
Do not rest your arms on the table cloth
Stack your arms in corner of the room
before beginning dinner.
! When asked what part of the fowl yol
prefer, answer promptly. If you want thu
whole of it, don't hesitate to say 80.
Do not drink with the spoon in your cup
put it in your pocket. Forgetting it, yol
will be so much ahead. A close regard Il
this rule has enabled Ben. Butler to accu
mulate competency. ..I ....
Pay no attention to accidents or blunder
on the part of servants. If Bridget blow
herself up while encouraging the fire wit
kerosene, keep right on eating just as if yo
had never (kero)sene it. .... .... .
Never help yourself to articles of foo
with your knife and fork. Use a harpoo
or lasso. ....
