FARM, GARDEN AND HOUSEHOLD,
The Borer.

The american Agrtcults.rist says:
The perfect insect of the apple-tree
borcr is one of the long-horned beetles;
it is about three uarters OF an inch
long, and has q pair of ffeelers more than
half as long as itself; its body is brown,
with two broad, nearly white stripes,
superda (Superda bivitta'a). The beetle
is seldom seen, as it is dormant by day,
but flies and works at night. The
insects begin to appear this month, and
next month the female lays her eggs on
the bark near the ground. The young
grubs soon bore through the bark, and
enter the tree, where they live upon the
sap wood, just beneath the bark, form
ing q cell or excavation the size of half
dollar. It lives, eats and grows here
for about a year; then, having stronger
Jaws, it, in the second summer, bores
upward toward the center of the tree,
making hole three or four inches long,
which it then curves outward until its
upper end reaches the bark again and,
at the beginning of the third winter, it
makes q bed and rests, in the next
spring becoming a pupa, and soop after
changing to beetle, which bores an
exactly round hole through the bark at
the upper end of its gallery, and comes
out into the world to lay eggs to produce
more bcrers. This is the life his
tory of the insect. Any "remedy"
must be of kind to keep the young
borer out, or to kill it alter it is in. Soap
is found to keep off the parent insect.
The base OF the tree is kept clear OF
weeds and the lower part Of the trunk
is rubbed with soap; the application is
repeated during June if washed of by
rains. Young orchards are to be ex-
amined late in July or early in August.
Weeds, trash, and about an inch of soil
are removed from around the base of
the tree. The bark is carefully ex-
amined; if chips are found, or the bark
looks dead and dark, ,.cut into it with a
sharp knife and cut the borer out. If
the insect has bored upward, it is to
be followed by a wire, piece OF whale
bone, or a twig, and killed.
The Rnral Nea1 Yorker says: The
peach grub works in the inner bark
mostly, just at or a little above or
below the surface of the ground. It's
presence is indicated by gummy e1u::
dations and it may easily be traced and
kiued with the point of a knife. An
orchard examined in this way in the
spring ana summer will not suffer
seriously from this cause.

AN exchange says; It is impossible to convey to the reader an idea of the vast valuable forests of fir, pine and cedar both in Oregon and Washington. Trees two hundred and two hundred and fifty feet high and six feet in diameter are never out of view; eight and ten feet in diameter and three hundred feet high are not uncommon, generally two-thirds bare of limbs. Fifty and sixty good timber trees grow on an acre as rule, and yield seldom less than three hun dred thousand feet, and instances are on record of one million feet from an acre. No acre is worked for profit which can not yield three hundred thousand feet at least, and even this yield is rare.
