A Welshman near Milwaukee who has

says their welcome and happy occupants
not only prey on insects that would
spoil his trees and fruit, but destroy
millions of flies"-so many in fact, that

Mr. Mines Gaskell, member Of par
Lament, maintains in a recent contribu-
ton to the Nineteenth Century that the
present deplorable condition of the
British agriculture is permanent, and
not q mere passing period ofdepression.
This is probably true, and will he go lol.g
as most of the soil Of the United King

real farmers, the men who do the work
must have the privilege Of becoming
owners of their holdings by right ofpur-
chase. And the future will bring this
result, since the ''eternal years Of God"
are on the aide Of labor. .-.tf

Eccentric: Bullets.

The strange freaks and antics re-
corded Of these leadeu messengers Of
death on the field Of battle seems H.
most like the demon sport Of destroyers
possessed of intelligence and self-di-
rection. The allusion to "bayonets that
think" is familiar one, and Gen. De.
saix's metaphor of bullets that seemed
controlled by fate, is quite as vivid and
ignificant when applied to men like
Washington, whom the deadly missiles
always seemed to shun Deaaix had car
ricd the same "charIned lifc' in battle,
but when he came to fight at Marcngo
he had but lately returned from the
campaign in Egypt. 1T is so long" said
he, "since ! fought a'battle in Europe
that the bullets will not know me. Some.
thing vii! happen" And, sure enough,
he was killed. The Newman (Ga.) Her.
aid gives the following instances Of the
eccentric course of bullets on the battle.
field:
At the battle Of Peach Orchard, when
Mcclellan was making his change of
base, Michigan infantrvman fell to the
ground as If shot stone dead, and WAS left
lying i'll !. heap rs the regiment changed
position. The ball which lad hit him
first stru:k the barrel oftl!e gun, glanced
and struck button off his coat, tore the
watch out Of his vest pocket, and the,-
struck the man just over the heart, and
was stopped there by u Song bOok in his
shirt pocket. He was UNCONSCIOUS for
thrce-quarters Of All hour, and it was a
full month before the black-and-blu
spot disappeared.
At Pittsburg Landing member of tho
Twelfth Michigan Infantry stopped to
give a wounded man Il drink. from his
can't .cn. While in this act, bullet
aimed at his breast struck the canteen,
turned aside, passed through the body
OF a man and buried itself in the leg Of q
horse. the canteen was split open and
dropped to the ground IN halves.
At the second battle of Bull Run, q
New York inflntryman was passing to-
bacco to co,nrade; Il bullet struck the
plug, glanced off and buried itself in a
knal'sack. The tobacco was rolled up
like ball of sbavinRs, and carried hum
dred feet away. Directly in the line of
the bullet was the head Of lieutenant,
and had not the bullet been DETECTED,
be would certainly have received it. Az
it was. he had both eyes filed with to-
bacco dust and had to be led to the rear.
At Brandy Station, one of Clusters
troopers had his left stirrup-strap cut
away by. grapeshot, which passed be-.
tgeen his leg and the horse, blietering
his skin as il red.hot iron had been
used. He dismounted to ascertain the
extent Of his injuries. and az he bent over
bullet knocked his hat off and killed
his horse.
In the same fight was 4 trooper who
had suffered several days with q tooth
ache. In hand-to-hand fight he re.
ceived pistol ball in the right cheek.
It knocked out his aching double tooth
and passed out the left hand corner Of
his mouth, taking along part Of an up.
per tooth. The JOY Of being rid Of the
toothache was 60 great that the trooper
could not he made to 20 to tho rear TO
have his wounds dressed.

There are various nicans Of Kidding
cattle Of this pest. Lice cannot endure
grease of any kind; consequently if an
animal is sMeared with it they die: DR..
Dodd recommends two ounces of pulver-
lied lobelia, mixed with pint of crude
cod liver oil. Others uae merely wash
oftobacco water. tobacco stems stepped
in water until u pretty strong solution IS
made will kill them, and if little kero.
sene is added it is considered still more
effective. After the lice are killed the
whole surroundings should be thorough
ly cleansed by washing with this TOBACCO
water, white washing, or fumigating with
sulphur, or all three, for It does little
good to rid animals of them 80 long as
they are allowed to remsin on the wood
work around them. Cleanliness IL the
proper preventative and they will not
be found where such care il taken as
should be.
