The secret Out at Last.

1t has long been source of wonder, as to
why Courtney failed to meet Iianlan in
sculling contest. The general explanatory
argument was. that he feared the little Cana
dian. This opinion. however. is exploded by
the authentic announcement, that on the days
fixed for the race. Courtney was unable to
sit in his she'll, on account of the intense itch
ing and soreness caused by the Piles. Hav-
ing recovered through the use of Swayne's
Ointment. he now announces that he will row

Those who have grain fields may be inter
ested to know how to save them from the raw
ages of the army worm, and we accordingly
give, for what they are worth the directions
recently contained in a Montana paper. One
wav is to pass a chain over the coulter of the
pIow so as to bevel the furrow, with
..land side outward and then drive
the pillow about the whole piece. and the
worms being very clumsy are not able to
yet across the furrow. Should the ditch be-
come filed, the worms are crushed by driv-
ing log continually along its entire length
Another way is TO fasten a weight to length
of rome and stretch il over the field in such R
wav that it will shake the worms from the
head. of the grain. as the least touch is all
that is necessary to cause their fall. The
fat fellows are never able to make second
,rip IN the stalk one trip with the rope is
.ufficient for that crop. repetition of this
opera,ion once day for ten days will save
tn. crop; and /, is easier and cheaper than
difchinx.
