The following description of thrarmy
worm and its habits, from the Nashville
American will be found interesting to
those of our agriculuuri>ts who are not
familiar with this pc,tifcr0us insect
which comes 10 cut short the products
promised by the soil, the rain, the sun
shine and the husbandman toll We
hope Il close watch will be kept for
them in all sections Of the country and
that they may be circum-cribcd in their
nefarious operations:
The army worm is an old and ia
miIiar nuisance. 1t has been known in
this country for nearly century. and
its natural history, ut least in America,
first began TO be studied after the great
army worm year of 1861. According
TO Riley and other cntomologistS. the
adult insect is Il night-iiying moth Of
dull brown color, marked in the center
OF each fore-wing with II distinct white
spot, and with an GXpansc of wing q
little over IN inch and three quarters.
The moth deposits her eggs in the folds
OF grass or grain, always cOnccaling
them from sight by pushing them down
into the mfoldcd portion Of the leaf, or
bv ccmcnting the edges of the leaf
together over them. The crrs are laid
sinely, or in rows. which sometimes
contain as many as fifteen or twenty.
The larva or worm is. when full crown.
an inch and Il half in length. Durinp
this stage. which lasts from fifteen TO
thirty DAYS, the worm casts its skin five
times. It's body color is pale rrcen.
The entire back is occlpird by broad
black or dusky band, with n series Of
stripcs on each flank. Down fine mid
die of the back is an intcrruptcd narrow
white lime often clearly seen only pr,r
the head.
The habits of the worm urc somewhat
like those of their relatives. the cut-
worms. in that they feed mostly nt
night. During the heat of the day they
hide under sticks. stones or rubbish
though. when occurring in great num-
hers. they often eat the entire day. ar
disappear only for few hours. When

. The southern CultINatOr.
/ The census of 1870 showed that cattle
had decreased gradually in the eastern
and middle states since 1850, and that
in comparison with the increase of
population the boyincS had fallen great
. iy behind. What the census Of 1850
will show we will not ascertain perhaps
| for another wear. The imbrcilitv exist
ing in that work is marvellous. All
that is valuable TO spectators can be
cot out, but the general public is kept
in the dark for Years aftcrenumcratiOn.
Beef has risen steadily, and so great has
been the growth of demand for it that
the partial failure last year of the corn
crop brought it through scarcity, to
famine prices, and in many cases to
famine Independent Of price, rs far as
it was concerned. Our farmers do not
take kindly, many OF them. TO beef
raising, They dislike very much to
milk cows, that is suggested as soon as
farmer begins to keep cattle. If our
people would eat horses, Il very prompt
supply could be had rs We have quite n
surplus Of light, Useless cquincS that
are only valuable for driving, but, we
believe our people will rather learn to
care for the COW and her calf than eat
the horse. Our people solve all
problems that are presented to them,
and the beef question will be sure now
TO get wide attention. Farmers who
have been establishing good herds by
grading up will push that feature of the
farm faster. Heifers will have more
shan Il deprecated value compared
with steers, and will be sought after and
saved from the butcher in their second
year. The course Of those who have
been at expense TO get good blood into
the neighborhood will be better apprc-
ciated and more initiated Farmers
will not hesitate to pay well for we'll
bred bulls, while they bring 800 fat.
The fact that first rate milk COW, even
if purenative brings $50, will encourage
the raising Of every hcifer calf. The
fact that eight cents is paid in Chicago
for prime steers will encourage farmers
to feed fat and make more out of the
cattle they have The fact that prime
butter sold for thirty to forty cents all
last winter will argue that corn can
better be fed at home than sold at any
price. The difference between grade
short horns and natives in market will
urge the use of thorough bred bulls. But
these influences combined will not keep
beef out of the column of dear articles.
We can not increase cattle aS we do
hogs. Year after year, on an average,
beef will be dearer than other foods.
Its dcarth will lead to sheep raising, to
cheese making for substitutes, but it will
in time become food exclusively of the
wealthy as population increases.

SavageS rarely commit suicide; the
desire for standardization is the prod
uct of our higher civilization. People
are also more anxious to shuttle off the
mortal coil in northern than in southern
latitudcs, more in summer than in win
ter, more in cities than in rural districts,
more among the educated than the
illiteratc, more among working people
than professional men, and more
among the poor than the wcll-to-do.
The Danes are the most and the
Portuguese the least self destruc-
tive, the Prussians more than the
French, the French more than the
English, and the English more than the
Austrians, Russians, Italians or Spanish.
Apart from latitude climate has no
effect. The seasons, however, exert an
important influence. Most people
prefer to take themselves off in fine
weather. Spring and summer are the
favorite times. July offers to the
victim the most and November the
fewest attractions. The number of
suicides is twice as great in May, June
or July as in any winter month. That
women, more than men, should shun
death by their own hand, and should
make up but q fourth of the ill-starred
list, is but natural and proper. Nor is
it strange that convicts and prostitutes,
who know neither shame nor fear, do
not die voluntary deaths in any ap-
preciable ratio. But why should the
tendency to self-slaughter increase
steadily and surely with advancing
years, and old age rather than earlier
life become the suicidal period? For
this strange fact appears to be estab-
lished by statistics, and that in proper
ton to the number of individuals of
each age suicides are about as frequent
above three score-and-ten as between
the ages of twenty and forty. The
favorite methods of death are hanging
and drowning, poisoning and the knife
having gone out of fashion.

MEXICAN RAILROAD BUILDING.
Progress on the Mexican Centrul-The
Great Cost of Handling Its Material.

Progress on the Mexican. Central--The
Great Cost of Handling ITS Material.
New orleans TImcsDcmocrat.
The American public knows but little
of the difficulties attendant upon the
construction of railroads in Mexico, OF
of the obstacles, physical and other
wise, American engineers have TO con-
tend with and overcome in the prose
cuton Of their work. The mountain
ranges that Corrugatc the surface of
the country attain a surprising attitude,
while the passes and canyons that break
their monotonous uniformity are not
always practicable for railroad routes.
In their progress through the interior,
the locating engineers of the Mexican
Central have had many difficult prob
lens to solve. But they have overcome
them all, and to-day The line rests at
Leon, the second city in size and popu-
lation in Mexico and the center of one
of the most llouriShing agricultural dis
trictS of our sister republic. Nor have
the obstacles presented by the topogra-
ply of the country been the only ones
this company have hadto contend with.
The material for tho construction Of
their line from the City of Mexico to
Leon had 10 be hauled over the coast
mountain range, from Vera Cruz tothc
capital by the Mexican railroad, ut Il
great expense. 1t has been estimated
that the Central has paid the latter
railroad company very nearly, if not
quite, $4,000, 900, freight on construc-
tion material, within the last two wears.
Notwithstanding the great expenses in
cdcnt to construction, the president of
the Central, in his report to the COM
pany, states that the average cost per
mile Of the road, from Mexico to Leon,
is but S2I,2Sj From Leon through
the interior the route of the line tends
III general nOrthwcStcrly direction TO
the city of chihuahua. 4 fair portion
Of this division has been graded. while
the entire line from Leon tothc frontier
has been surveyed and the route loca-
ted, The company have for the last
year been working on the northern
division with the most commcndablr
activity. This section will connect
Chihuahua, the capital of the state of
the same name. with I'll Paso, on the
Rio Grandc frontier. The material for
the construction of this end of the
enterprise is laid down ut st. Louis, No.,
and from thence transported by rail to
FL Paso. The division of over three
hundred miles, will be opened to
freight and passenger traffic about the
10Th Of the coming September. Thus
the Central, the Mexican Oriental, and
the National railroad enterprises are
working as cXpcditiously as can BE- cX-
pcctcd to bring about that longcd-for
dcSilcratum, rail communication with
the interior of Mexico; nor will it be
long before American energy will have
solved the great problem OF bringing to
the Mississippi valley the vast traffic of
the interior Of our sister republic.

Journalism is the grave of genius, "

newspaper man, in his highly finished
essay upon graduating from an Iowa
college the other day. But Downes is
unhappy in his simile. Journalism is
not q grave; it is only seive over a

through. Only the very big ones re-
main on top.
