Worth Irving.

The Troy Press tells of earmer who
tried new remedy for ptato bugs
with success. He procured a number
OF boards and placed them here and
there among his potatoes, and on these
boards were placed raw potatoes sliced.
at noon on the first day Of the expert
ment he and his hired men found every
piece OF potato covered with bugs
The men killed this crop. and at night
another crop was killed, though not so
large. and in week not a bug could
be seen, and his trouble with bugs
after this was comparatively small.
In the spring, he says, is the best time
to attend to bugs, as spring bug, he
understands, breeds from 200 to 800
during the potato season. He thinks
it would be good plan to dip the
piece of potato in Paris green, as it
would save the work of killing the
bugs.

A Butcher on frozen Mead

London butchers do not believe in
frozen meat. One of them writes to
the Times in these indignant terms:
"The stupid twaddle written on the
above subject by some of your cores
pondents is most lUdicrous to those
who practically know about butchers
meat and its supply. Tor instance.
the a gentgeneral for New Zealand saws
there was no better meat to be seen in
the market the other day than the mat
ton from that country. Now, sir. any
one who knows anything of the matter
knows this to be absolutely untrue.
This meat, when it first comes into the
market looks bright and clean, is to the
touch like . piece Of stone, when no
one can be deceived by its appearance.
Afterward it begins to weep and be-
come wet and thawed, and after being
kept day OK two looks as though it
had been drawn through horse pond.
Is II likely that any one in his common
sense would mistake that for the best
English meatf AS for the butcher
palming it of as such, this is simply
stupid nonsense. How would a good
cook like lump of stone sent to her to
cook in the shape of a leg Of mutton ?
Is it likely she would be deceived about
what it was, or, if it was sent when it
was thAwed and wet, would she be
likely to take it in p"

Making Money.

The desire to snake money" may be
one Of the noblest that can actuate q
human soul. Getting gain wherewith
to do good is as worthy as any human
work; and we do this when, with care
full thought and diligent labor, we get
the wherewithal to give ourselves and
our families comfort our children
education and opportunity-the poor,
bread; and something beyond, to put
into another treasury out of which flow
blessings to the human race.
The man who is a faithful and wise
steward, one who manages a mill, or
store, or newspaper establishment, or
a farm, for the real owner of each-so
that the largest income of good may
come to general humanity-willb be &C
counted to have done his worlds work
well.
No shrewd manufacturer ever does
anything at hap-hazard. He judges to-
day what will sell at the best price to-
morrow, and then sets the iron fingers
in his mill to making the goods.
Looking over the world, carefully
noting the redundancy or the lack with
regard to any product. something may
be determined, with all but absolute
certainty, as to what will sell the readi-
est and the highest all things favor
able, eight or ten months from to-day.
Only in this way can farmers make
money. They must plan to do it-mpst
put thought and brain into their work
and this must be done not alone in
July, but in January.
Some time in the better future, farm
ing is to be sought instead Of stunned.
The tide setting to the city now, is to
set the other way; and that day is
fastened and assured by every worker
in the soil making his business pay.
1t is not alone comfort and health, but
dollars, that attract men of taste and
culture into any business; and when a
better husbandry makes it possible to
realize competency, if not a fortune
from farming, all the talk about the
difficulty of keeping our boys at home
will cease forever.

a Discinlined Army

NcN hOfk 6fAPnlc, lE@-
Nearly $4,000 workers in iron are
soon to march in procession through
Pittsburg. The ruling spirits of this
army of strikers deprecate all disorder,
all violenSe.al drinking on the day of
the parade. They advise the men to shun
saloons and eschew pocket TASKS. When
their president is notified of possible dis.
turbance at certain place where
negroes have taken the place of the
men formerly employed, he orders
that the negroes shall not be molested,
and his orders are promptly obeyed.
This is far more portentous than if
this immense force of laborers were
turbulent, violent, and inclined to
place themselves without the pale of
law in their treatment of those hired
in their places. 1t indicates discipline.
control, intelligence, reason. for5ear-
ance, patience. organization and
obedience. These are the essentials of
an army. These qualities distinguish
the army from the mob. These are
the acts Of men who are beginning to
know their power.
