Insects Of the Season.

Prof. Cyrus Thomas, entomologist OF
the Illinois State Department of Agri-
culture, in notes on insects of the sea-
son, in recent report announces that
the supposed new insect that injured
the sweet corn during July and August
in the northern portions of Illinois and
Indiana is in fact the same pest as that
which is known in the cotton States as
the 'boll-worm," and in Kentucky,
Missouri and Kansas as the "corn-
worm" Prof. Thomas thinks that
this species has pushed itself north this
summer on account of the very hot and
dry weather that prevailed. 1t is a
Southern insect, and hence he believes
the farmers and sweet-corn growers of
The northern section of Illinois need
have no fear of its appearing in injuri-
Gus numbers in that section next year,
if the meteorological indications for
1882 prove as correct as those for 1881.
The Professors predictions in refer
ence to the appearance of the chinch-
bug this year have been only too fully
verified. While farmers have suffered
severely by this verification, it may
prove of value to them in the future as
an additional evidence that chinch- bugs,
generally speaking, appear in injurious
numbers only when two dry years come
in succession, the latter being above the
ordinary temperature.
Prof. Thomas is of the opinion that
the year 1882 will be similar in charac-
ter to the years 1875, 1868 and 1861, in
which the rain fall, taking the three to-
gether, was rather below the general
average and the temperature also rather
below the general mean. Judging from
various indications, he does not expect
the chinch-bugs will appear generally
next year in the State of Illinois in in.
furious numbers. Possibly they may
do some injury in limited localities, and
if so, most probably in the extreme
northern sections of Illinois, Iowa and
in Southern Wisconsin and Minnesota.
The appearance of the army worm in
the northern section of Illinois this sea-
son in the oat fields presents some
rather new features in its history. AS
a rule this cereal has heretofore suf-
fered but little from its attacks. There
are still so many unsettled questions re-
garding the climatic conditions neces-
sary to the maximum development Of
this pest that Prof Thomas hesitates to
predict whether the army worm will or
will not appear next season. AS very
general rule it does not appear two
years in succession over the same area.
On the other hand the great chinch-bug
years of 1871 and 1874 were followed
the next year by the appearance of this
insect. N. Y World.

Country Roads.

How we proceed here is about as fol-
lows: The farmers of the district are
notified to appear at q certain date for
duty. One or two teams and dozen
men gather to the portion of the road
to be repaired. AS the Road District is
a certain unit of democracy, each man
is as good as ''boss,' and is mostly
exempt from labor; the boys flourish
the spade and hoe, but the horses are
the laboring class. AS for our "earth-
works." the deep, narrow side bitches
are cut still deeper; the large stones
and small boulders along the footpath
are rolled into the center of the track,
and the finish given with top dressing
of sod. Logs, rails, etc., are then laid
on the TANKS to compel travel on the
center. Should the process be inter-
rupted (Which often happens) the road
is left variegated with piles of dirt
which sometimes lie unspread for the
season, reminding the traveller trolling
through an unfriendly world" that
something had been done toward i'm
provement. Probably we can all see
that this is good way not to do it, Is
there not a better wayp A few citi-
zens, our best farmers, are proposing
to use the same good and strong sense
on the roads as they use on a farm. A
letter from the original McAdam to a
farmer in Central New York, was long
kept, in which he says: Remember
that in your region, if you keep stones
out and water off, you have road"
Simple advice, yet needing wit to fol-
low it! Two ideas are growing in the
minds of our people, both tending to
reform. One is to find man who has
plain engineering wit adequate to road
making. In some districts one needs
a lamp at noon to find him, but when
found he is treasure. He is to be put
and kept in charge of the roads. The
other is to make the tax cash bust
ness. The assessment being payable
IN cash, the oyerseer can employ whom
he chooses, and, if he employs the resi-
dents of his district, they work better on
a cash basis. A good road saves wear
and tear of wagon, horses and driver;
it tells pleasant tale of the good sense
and good faith of the neighborhood, and
it adds something material to the value
of every farm along its course. Prof
