Why He MOnrneG.

The late George Borrow, Of England
was man Of powerful frame and was
six feet two in height without his shoes
Having been born at period wher
pugilism was in vogue-it was one Of
his fathers accomplishments-he was
not slow to exercise his physical capaci
ties if the occasion required it. La
menting, when he was verqing toward
sixty, that he was childless, hesaid very
mournfully: 81 shall soon not be, able
to knock man down, and shall have
no son to do it for me-"

Easy Hour, in recent issue says: "But
one of the most important Developments
concerning ST. JACOBS OIL is the discovery
that it has properties which are beneficial
to the animal as well as to the human
species. 1t has, Of late, been in active de-
mand among livery men and others for use
on horses suffering from sprains OF abra-
sions. The most prominent instance known
of in this connection, is that related by Mr..
David Walton, well-known Friend, who

Antidotes for Scale Bugs.

At the last meeting of the San Jose Horti
cultural S ciety, committee that had been
previously appointed for the purpose of inves-
tigating and reporting on remedies for the
scale insects that infest the orchards in that
section made their report. They state that
crude petroleum kills the insects without any
apparent effect, either good or bad, to the
tree. That potash I've will kill the in
sects also; and the committee thinks
that the I've has beneficial effect on
the tree They recommend the application
of both substances in the winter, when trees
have no leaves on them. It was shown that
the scale insect, which has been 80 destructive
to the apple trees in Santa Clara valley, will
live and thrive ON cherry trees as well as on
apple trees, and, of course, will prove as in
furious to the cherry as to the apple. A
member of the Society was of the opinion that
petroleum not only destroyed the scale,
but was Of decided advantage to the tree In
giving il general vigor and good health. He
stated that the oil killed the scale, and at the
same time loosens it so that the rain washed
it from the tree, leaving the bark smooth and
healthy. This discovery is of great practical
value. as the San Jose scale was being spread
over the State quite rapidly by nursery stock
and orchard trees sold from the San Jose nur-
series. 1t is pity the discovery had not
been made before so much injury had been
done to the orchards of Santa. Clara county
The above facts should furnish a hint to all
whose shrubbery, such as rose bushes, Is
affected with insects of any kind. The oil or
the I've can be applied with q common garden
pump or large syringe, throwing the solution
over all parts of the tree, stem and branches
