The Benevolent Terrier.

There is a terrier in "A cafe, Rue ST.
Honore. that no sooner sees an habitual GUS
toner enter than he runs up TO the new
conner, opens his mouth, and looks implor-
inglv at the customer The latter so well
understands the pantomine that he puts a
sou IN the open mouth. The terrier bounds
to the door, and in an instant is at the
nearest pastry cooks. The latter gives the
dog cake, which the latter brings to- his
benefactor, who breaks the cake into three
pieces. One is forthwith given to the terrier;
the dog, having eaten it, stands on his hind
legs, lets the customer put the second piece
on his (the dog's) nose, let's it stay there
untouched until the gentleman raps ten
times on the table; al the tenth rap the tel
rier tosses the cake in the air and catches
il before it falls TO the floor. The gentle
man then takes the third piece of cake in
his hand and says: "Billy, you have eaten
two of the three pieces of cake. There are
thousands of dogs in Paris VIII have never
tasted piece of cake Now, Billy, if you
be a gentleman-and | believe you are a
gentleman, Billy-you will take this third
piece of cake and lay it,in the street for
dogs that are not as well off il this world
as you are" The terrier takes the third
piece of cake in his mouth, carries it to the
street, leaves it there, returns to the Gus
toner, looks inquiringly at him as much as
to ask, ''Have done the genteel thing?"
and lies down to doZe until another custo-
mer enters.

Paper Pulp.

SO much is being said about the paper
pulp which is so extensively used in the
manufacture of paper at this time that a
brief description of the process of making
it will be interesting. Any white, soft
wood may be used The bark is taken of,
the knots, dark and decayed places cut out.
1t is then put into large caldron and boil
ed, which extracts all the glutlnous matter
and resin and renders it soft 1t is then
put on a large stone grinder, with water
pouring on it al the time. This grind
stone wears off the fibres until they are
finer than sawdust, which float away into
a receptacle. The water is drained off by
means of fine sieve, leaving the pulp,
which consists of fine fuzz or splinters of
wood. 1t is white, and requires no bleach
ing or chemicals, but is ready to be mixed
with rag pulp or anything else that has a
strong fibre and receive the proper constitu-
ents to make it into paste after which it's
run off into paper sheets, whereas rags have
to be washed and bleached with chloride of
lime, SODA ash and alum, and such strong
chemicals, to take out the color. Then
they are picked to pieces and made into
pulp. The process by which wood pulp is
made is purely mechanical, and as any soft
wood, such as cottonwood and poplar,
may be used, it can be made cheap, say at
about one cent per pound.

Destroyers of Carpets.

Careful house keepers are often dismay-
ed at the wholesale destruction which their
best carpets have suffered, through the de-
predations of some insect pests, and as
usual the injury will be attributed TO the
well known domestic scourge, the clothes
moth. But it may be of interest TO some
TO know that an insect Of quite different
order, and far more destructive, is fostered
unwittingly beneath our carpets. If the
windows of infested rooms he carefully eX-
amned during the winter and spring, a
number of small beetles may often be found
not exceeding eighth of an inch in
length, and of an oval convex form. These
insects are beautiful objects, being jet
black, variegated with scarlet, and white
markings. II examined through a low
power microscope these markings are seen
TO be composed of minute elongated scales
various coers, with which the body is
completely covered as with a coat-of-mail.
This is the insect, which in the larval state
plays such havoc with the carpets. It's
discovery In this country is of recent date,
and it has probably been imported from
Europe, where it has long been known and
dreaded for its destructiveness. Owners
of carpets who have not suffered from this
source have reason 10 congratulate them
selves and should be vigilant; making fire.
quent examinations during the summer
months, at which time the insect is in the
larval state and commits it ravages while
its presence is often unsHspected. The
larva measure about three-siXtcenths of an
inch in length, in mature specimens, and
are clothed with shortly bristly hairs, some
what longer at the sides where they form
small tufts, and are terminated at the
hinder end by tuft Of longer hair, making
them appear nearly three-eights OF an inch
long. When they are disturbed they are
active and glide very quickly away into
some crevice of the floor or beneath the
washl oard. 1t is not very consoling to
know that this pest is rapidly increasing.
while no effectual means for its destruction
has yet been discovered, although benzine,
kerosene and insect powder has been re-
ported beneficial. A curious fact concern
ing these insect Is that the image, perfect
insect, is frequently found on flowers. ap-
parently feeding on the pollen.

WASTE OF LANDAU agricultural
writer with calculating turn OF mind
gives the following, which Is well
worth the consideration of the intelli-
gent farmer: "If farm of l60 acres is
divided by fences into fields Of ten
acres each, there are five miles of
fences. If each fence now is one rod
wide. no less than 10 acres Of land are
occupied by them. This is equal TO G 4
per cent. of the farm, and the loss OF
the use of the land Is exactly equal to
a charge of 81 per cent, on the whole
value of the larm. But nearly every
fence row in the country is made a
nursery for weeds, which stock the
whole farm and make an immense
amount of labor necessary to keep them
from smOtherlng the crops. Much
damage always results to the crop from
these weeds. and if these expenses are
added TO the first one, the whole will
easily sum up TO 20 per cent, or tax
of one-tifth of the value of the farm.
To remedy this we would have fewer
fences, or we would clean and SOW
down the fence rows to grass or clover,
and NOW them twice year. Ten acres
of clover or timothy would at least sup
ply farm with seed and few tons OF
hay every year. We would, in short,
consider the fence rows as a valuable
part of the farm, and use them as
such"

AGRICULTURE.

Coon RoADs.--There Is decided in
which always have good and level
road to market. L do not believe the
Importance Of having good roals Is APP
preciated as 1t should and Will be, but
there is already an understanding on
this subject which makes intelligent
road Improvement profitable. AS
rule, most of the work annually put
upon country highways is wasted.
Consciousness of this fact Is one reason
why such work Is generally shirked as
far as possible. Most men will Tot
work at their road tax rs they do on
their farms for themselves. If they
could know that their work on the road
was as directly tor their own benefit
as that which they do in every day
farm work, this would not be SO. To
have men engage earnestly In road
making, 1t must be shown that their
labors are producing good results. As
it is now, very often the harder men
work the worse will be the roads. The
severe winters and superabundant
rains and SHOWS of our northern eli
mate, make the keeping Of roads IN re-
pair extremely difficult. We have
hardly begun to appreciate the import
ance of understanding to keep roads in
good order. 1t Is, on all heavy soils,
the first thing to be done. In neigh
borhoods where farmers underdrain
their land, the roads are much better
than where they do not. Very often
the drain crosses the road, and always
at point where Ii will be most advan-
tageous. With aA underdrain three feet
deep crossing road, and usually in a
depression, it should be easy TO keep a
long stretch of road always dry. This
Is the place to put In piece of maca-
dam turnpike-two or three layers Of
stone lightly covered with eaarth and
gravel. The macadam turnpike is real
ily thoroughly drained roadbed when
{ is perfect. The reason why it so
often fails because in many places there
is no outlet to the drain. The water
runs under the road to some depression,
and there lies until winter frosts have
lifted the stones from their foundation
and left the road quagmire as soon as
the spring came. If the macadam road
bed 10 connected with an underdrain il
will obviate this trouble and make a
firm permanent road-bed Piling loose
earth and sods in the centre of the road
may be somewhat better than leaving
the surface level. But if the soil is
vegetable matter, sOds and the like, the
more it is piled up, the worse the road
bed will surely be. Nothing will do
any good except to first remove surplus
water by stone or tile underdrains.
When this is done, it is surprising how
little stone or 9ravelis needed. l am
glad that road makers are learning to
use more gravel; but in thousands of
places drawing gravel to throw on an
undrained turnpike is nearly a waste
Of labor. =

THE Cost OF SoILING CATTLE. The
supposed large amount Of extra labor
involved in soiling cattle upon green
fodder crops, cut and carried to them
in yards or barns, is the greatest OBJ
lection urged against the system.
While certain amount of extra labor
is needed, this is by no means so oneI-
Gus or so costly, as to overcome the adj
vantages of the system. BY the use of
one-horse mower, hay-rake and
wagon, sufficient for days fodder for
twenty cows, can be moved, gathered,
loaded and hauled a quarter of a mile
to the stable In an hour, by a
smart boy of fourteen or fifteen years.
The labor OF feeding, watering and
cleaning the cattle, will occupy two
hours more. Ifhalf day is thas taken
up it will cost about a cent and half a
day per cows for the labor. The saving
of manure will more than pay for this,
and there are other savings about the
system which will sum up in al to a
respectable profit. 1t Is on small farms
that the advantage of soiling is the
greatest.
