An exchange tells of a farmer who
tried new remedy for potato bugs
with success. He produced q number
OF boards and placed them here and
there among his potatoes, and on these
boards were placed raw pototoes sliced
AT noon the first day of the experi.
ment he and his hired man found ev.
cry piece of potato covered with bugs.
The men killed this crop and at night
another crop was killed, though not so
large, and i'm weeks time not a buv
could be seen and his trouble with the
bugs after this was comparatively
small. In the spring time, he says, is
the best time to attend to bugs. "a n
spring bug, he understands, breeds
from 300 to 500 during the potato sea-
son. He thinks it would be d good
plan to dip the pieces of potato in
Paris green, as it would save the work
of killing them.

Raising Cabbnges.

AS to manure for a crop: I have
raised many acres of the large Drum
head varieties on land that had been
in tillage and well manured for several
years, by stirring into the place for
each hill a round handful of good
phosphate, to be followed by half a
handful of unleached ashes at the first
hoeing. Plant the seed by all means
where the cabbage are to grow, and
don't have the trouble and risk of
transpIanting. Just as soon as they
begin to break ground-and watch
for this-spriukle with fine
plaster, and this will protect them
from the black fly. Hi planting seed
scatter them, and the plants can re-
main larger without crowding each
other. Pat hard with the palm of the
hand rs soon as the seeds are planted,
or if you cannot open your hand flat,
use the hoe and plant as fast as the
hills are ready, to prevent the soil from

CHICAGO, April GA special says: !:
The town OF Carrollton, La. was struck
by whirlwind Tuesday evening. A
skiff in the river, containing three
men, was capsized, and none of the
occupants seen since. The wharf WAS
lifted and carried a square distant.
The noise accompanying the wind was
like a deep thunder. Several houses
wsre unroofed and the property great
ly damaged. The German Catholic
school was completely destroyed, and
number Of persons reported seriously
hurt, but none were killed outright.
The damage is estimated at $500
Other neighboring towns report more
or less damage.
A Bloomfield, Iowa, special reports
a devastating cyclone in that county,
which, however, by good chance die
not strike any town. The damage was
confined to farms, fences and isolated
buildings. No deaths reported, anC
but three persons were injured.

PILES! PILES! PILES!
A Sure Cure Found at Last. No
One Need Suffer.

A sure cure for Blind, Bleeding, Itch
ing and liberated Piles has been dis
covered by DR. William, IAN Indian
remedy,) called DR.. Williams Indian
Ointment. A single box has cured the
worst chronic cases of 25 or 80 years
standing. No one need suffer five
minutes after applying this wonderful
soothing medicine. Lotions, instru
ments and electuaries do more harm
than good. Williams Ointment alb
serbs the tumors, alIays the intense
itching, particularly at night after
getting warm in bed,) acts as a poul-
tice, gives instant and painless relief,
and is prepared only for Piles, itching
of the private parts, and for nothing
else.
Read what the Hon.. M. .Cof1inberry,
of Cleveland, says about DIR. Williams
Indian Pile Ointment: / have used
scores of Pile Cures, and it affords me
pleasure to say that have never found
which gave such immediate
and permanent relief as Dr.. Williams
Indian Ointment.

JAMES M. CONSTABLE, Of the large
New York importing house of Arnold,
Constable & Co., at recent meeting
of the Chamber of Commerce, to dis
cuss the Tariff question, said:
AS to wOolens, the manufacturers
demanded a high tariff nOminally that
they might give the workmen more
wages. But, by the table of prices of
wooden goads, he could show that the
manufacturers today owed their hands
IA per cent. advance. That was the
cause of the strikes. AS an importer.
he felt necessity for change in the
tariff, when his firm was compelled to
pay 1l9 per cent. duty on one article
that is used by the poor, and 220 per
cent, duty on another article worn by
the lrboring classes. They imported
one article that cost As cents, and paid
120 cents duty.

WE are in receipt of the Ohio Crop

lain, Secretary of the State Board Of
Agriculture, based upon reports from
over 1000 township correspondents in
all the counties of the State, returned
to the State Board of Agriculture,
April lst, 1882. 1t treports the prospect
of the wheat crop at that date at 35,-
519, ,41G bushels, decrease from that OF
1881 of 100000 bushels. If the later
reports as to the condition Of the crop
are reliable, the shortage will be much
greater, and there is no probability OF
a decline in prices.
