grubs. A tablespoonful of the oil to two
gallons of water is the rule for tender plants
for hardy ones it will be necessary probably
to have it Of greater strength. As the com
pound does not mix readily, it needs to be
thoroughly stirred, and then quickly ap-

The APHIs.-The Aphis or green louise
is the one that most frequently infests our
plants, and the rapidity with which II null
tiplies is astonishing. Reaumer has proved
that in five generations one Aphis may be
the progenitor of six thousand millions, and
there may be ten generations in a year
The method most generally adopted for
their destruction is fumigation with to-
bacco. As this is attended with consider
able difficulty, weak solution may be used
quite as effectively. We have had no expe-
rience with either method, having used
another with good success for several years.
This is white hellebore, which we usually
apply in the powder when the rose-bushes
are wet with dew or rain, bending the
branches over, so that the application can
be made chiefly on the under side Of the
leaves where the pests are found. Two or
three times proves sufficient. For our house
plants we usually make solution, by put
ting half an ounce of the hellebore into
pretty warm water and letting it stand fol
several hours stirring it up, however, before
spraying the leaves. Afterward, the plant
need to be washed.

Cut-WOrms.

ID. T. A. of Northfeld, Vermont, wishes
TO know of ga remedy for the ravages Of the
brown worm the same that cuts down
young corn stalks) among strawberry plants. "
He says he knows of none except to dig him
out and kill him. We have never had any
trouble with cut-worms amongst strawber-
ries, aud would hardly think that they could
destroy a plant with such thick, hard,
woody crown. The greatest pest of the
strawberry bed is the large white grub with
red or brown head. These, however, Gas
well as cutworms) are worst on newly
turned sod, and disappear, mostly, in land
long in tillage. Like our friend A., we have
never found any remedy for this, or the cut
worm, except digging and "squshing
them. Crows dig them, occasionally. We
believe that toads eat good many Gu t
worms in the night, when they are travelling
over the surface from one plant to another
Toad-sbeters, made by laying heavy piec'
of plank on supports an inch or two high

A correspondent of the Home Farm, re-
cation, says; al did not condemn quick
steppers but | claim that the breeding of
trotting colts and putting them in shape to
sell for trotters, is too costly and too uncertain
to be entered into by common farmers. No
one disputes that thousands of dollars have
been brought into Maine for fast horses, but
among the whole how many common farm
ers in the state for the past ten years have
sold horse on account Of speed, for $500
The jockeys aud spectators buy up the
promising colts and get the big prices. And
the farmer will think he can do the same with
any colt that has a trotting pedigree, and
will spend all the way from three to ten
hundred dollars in the attempt, and sell out
for about 1925. Now will call attention
to an item in the Home Farm, April 80 :;
American dealers purchased nearly three
hundred horses in Montreal last week at a
cost of $2S 900, and shipped them across the
line.' American dealers are not the only
men who go to Canada for heavy horses.
Farmers, teamers and lumbermen from this
glorious trotting state go there for horses to
work on their farms, and pay prices that
make it profitable to raise them, while these
little hopefuls which have cost more and are
not worth half as much, are left eating their
owners out of house and home. When were
three hundred fast horses or any other
horses, except in war time sold in the whole
of Maine in a single week Let us raise
horses that will sell in Maine as well as in
New York"
