Hpssian FLY.

| would like to ask some of the advanced
farmers of the county if there is any remedy
for Hessian fly. Perhaps some of the mem
bers of the Deer Creek Farmers Club, who
raise fifty bushels of wheat to the acre, will
be able to tell all about it, Some fields in nv
neighborhood, which were seeded about Goth
September l find on examination are full of
fly. Other fields, in some cases adjoining the
above, seeded a week or ten days later, do not
yet show the fly Would also like to know
what kind of insect it is that lays the egg in
the wheat. find that many suppose it is a
small dark brown beetle which has been very
numerous for the last three or four weeks, and
appears about the same time every fall, and
which seems to be kind of tumble-bug. /
noticed on several occasions large swarms of
them coming off the wheat fields. have seen
in books description of the Hessian fly very
different from that of the beetle which go
abroad about this time. 1t must be very
numerous insect, whatever it is, that fills whole
fields full of eggs, and one would suppose il
ought to be known to the observant farmer.
In examining for fly, my attention was call
ed to the peculiar growth of the wheat. |
found that it mattered not at what depth the
wheat was seeded, it sent up a shoot to the
top of the ground and spur roots were sent
out from or near the surface, and the growth,
both ofplant and roots took place from thence.
1t suggested whether the object in seeding
wheat should not be to put it as near the sur
face as possible r.

KEEPING APPLES IN PLAsTER-I have
been experimenting the past few years with
apples, and find those packed in plaster keep
much longer than any other way have tried.
| use flour barrels and find them preferable to
apple barrels, as they aremade tighter. / first
cover the bottom of the barrel with plaster,
then layer of apples, then cover with plaster,
and SO on till the barrel is full; then put the
head in and drive the hoops tight. The plas-
ter, being of cold nature, keeps the fruit at
an even temperature, and being fine and dry,
packs so close as to keep the apples air tight.
| had northern spy and swaar almost as fresh
in May as when picked, and found no decayed
ones, and think they would have kept till early
apples were ripe had we not used them. Shall
put up several barrels for next spring and sum-
mer use, as am satisfied that our best varie-
ties, such as Steel's red winter, Wagner and
seek-no-further, will keep several months
longer than putting up without plaster, and
will retain their flavormuch better besides.

PACKING BUTTER FOR WINTER.-There
are few requisites for packing butter safely
for winter use The butter must be good !;
the salt must be pure; the packages must be
clean and alright, and perfectly well closed ;
and the place of storage must be cool, clean,
airy, free from mouldiness and not too dry
A clean, well-aired cellar with cemented floor,
and in which vegetables are not stored, is as
good place as any for the storage of butter
for winter use. Pure air is very important

THE MILLERS.

Interesting Committee Reports in the Chi
cago Convention.
CHICAGO, May 14.-At the session of the
Millers' association this morning, Mr.. Bur-
bridge again brought up the resolution, re-
citing the recent decision by Judge Dyer, of
the United States court of Milwaukee, that
the law of registration of trade marks is un-
constitutional, declaring that the milling in
terests in the country require more stringent
laws on the subject, and recommending
proper legislation by Congress, which should
be presented and urged by the committee ap-
pointed for the purpose, but they were
promptly voted down.
The report of the committee OH milling
was made by w. P. Brown, of Red Wing,
MINI. In the ensuing discussion the idea
was broached, and met considerable favor,
that millers can and should regulate the
quality of grain grown in their respective
localities.
F. M. Morton, of Chicago, member of
the committee on grading and inspection,
made report, deprecating the practice of
doctoring wheat, and submitted resolutions
by j. Meltz, of Milwaukee, recommending
the establishment of specific grade for
wheat which had been secured, to prevent it
being classed above it's merits on account of
its good appearance. Adopted.
Mr.. @. A. Seybt, chairman of the commit
tee on State organizations, reported favor
ing the plan of reorganization on the basis
mapped out by President Balm in his open
ing address. It advises that organizations be
formed in each State, and that they adopt a
constitution like that of the similar body in
Minnesota or Missouri. This afternoon the
members take boat ride down the lake.

Southern Steamboatmen Deny Having Re-
fused transportation to Refugees---The
Exodus Fast Dying out.
ST. LOUIS, May 14.-Officers of the South
ern Steamboat Company, having headquar-
tors in this city, and officers of steamboats,
plying between here and New Orleans, deny
having refused transportation to colored ref
ugees, whenever the latter have had money
to pay passage. They also deny that there
has been any generally expressed disposition
on the part of merchants and planters to
withdraw patronage from boats which carry
immigrants This has been done in few
instances, but the desire to prevent the ne
groes from leaving tho South is changing,
and now the planters don't seem to care
whether they leave or not Officers of the
latest arrived boats say they were not hailed
on tho way up by negroes, and they don't be-
ieve there are any such number of refugees
on the river banks as have been stated.
They further state that the excitement is
fast dying out, and it will cease altogether in
a short time.

4 SENSIBLE MOVE,

Extension of the Street Railway and Re-
duction of the Fare to Nickle.
There is occasion for mutual congratula-
tions between the public and the Street Rail
road company. That company celebrates
the extension of its lines to-day to the juno
lion of Western and Ashland avenues, and
by reduction of fare to tive cents on all
of annoy ance to the public and positive
buy tickets in order to make change
when they wished but "a single fare
and hence they would walk rather than
have the expense and annoyance. The COM
pany has stood in its own light, and we are
glad to see the abandonment of tho six
cent fare. The extension of the line to st.
Anthony Hill is a great public advantage
which ought to bring largely increased
patronage.
The following is the official announce
ment:
ST.. PAUL. Minn., May Is, 1879.
The st: Paul City Railway company would
respectfully inform the public that the St. An
thony hill extension of their line to the corner
of Western and Ashland avenues will be opened
this morning. Cars will be run every ten min
utes connecting with the cars on the main line
at Fourth and Wabashaw streets, and making
transfer of passengers as heretofore without
additional fare. From this date the rate of
fare will be reduced on both lines to five cents,
tickets being sold as heretofore. The company
hopes that liberal patronage of the new line
and the reduced fare will enable them to un-
dertake further Improvements and afford
greater accommodations to the public.

A Morris, Minn., Merchant Fails to Play it
on Milwaukee, and Gets Caught.
The GLOBE yesterday explained the capture
made of goods in this city, shipped here by
one Infeld, of Morris. Messrs. F. L. and
J. N. Rogers were the attorneys who made
the capture, at the instance of Milwaukee
creditors.
Infeld was found yesterday. The situation
was put to him, and to save the sixteen cases
of goods Infeld paid the attachment held by
Metcalf & Bradley of Milwaukee, amounting
to $543. Given with this payment, q liberal
discount being allowed for cash down,
Infield had a good thing in his bargain.
He expressed supreme satisfaction when
told the goods were released and started in
to have them carted off. But his Joy was
turned into sudden sorrow, when Deputy
Sheriff Harrison stepped up, and objected.
"Why?," asked Infeld.
because have three other attachments
to serve on these same goods.''
"Holy Moses" calculated Infeld, aud
fell back almost paralized.
The three new attachments, in total
81 600, were served for Singer & Benedict,
Landauer & Co., and Strahl, Ellsworth &
Brant of Milwaukee.
Infeld didn't have money enough to
compromise this little affair, and the sixteen
cases are in the sherif's custody.
