It is wonderful how the squirrels know
at once when any one has come into the
woods. Let the intruder be ever so quiet,
in a minute or two there is an approaching
" ohip-chip. chip! 7" a Gathering down the
loose bark of tree, as of somebody whose
shoes do not fit very we'll, and two small,
bright eyes are staring at him inquisitively
at safe distance. Sitting perfectly still
on the ground, / have eyed a squirrel ten
minutes at tlme-he as still as myself
and gazing into nay eyes as steadily as
into his. l have usually had to be the first
TO look away; then he would perhaps ven.
ture little nearer, or possibly would take
alarm at my movements, and ran up into
his tree. quivering with excitement. Once
| caught the eye of one sitting on a pine
scrub near me, with a nut or acorn in his
mouth, which fitted in exactly and gave it
the shape Of the letter o. He staid there
long time quite motionless, with his tail
in the air, and his paws uplifted to his
cheeks, stuffed out with the nut. which ne
did not attempt to eat or to drop until l
turned away. 1t was very comical, the
three interjections that his eyes and mouth
made as he watched me. tried to talk
to him in squirrel language, and he seemed
to listen, bat not to understand, for he
gave no answer; 1 suppose he was laugh
ing inside at the ridiculous mispronuncis-
tions of the intrusive foreigner. But l
have had long talks with squirrels that
came down to within few feet of me, and
told me Enthusiastically that they had better
command of their own vocabulary than l,
and that l had better leave their premises

shape, and reddish-brown in color. Three
years since few of the same scale were found
on two Newtown pippin apple trees, but the
washing mentioned for the oyster-shell scale
cleaned them away and no more were seen I'M
| til this past winter. This tree was washed
| with lye, but not all of the insects were de-
| stroyed, and recent investigation discovered
| fifty of the scale upon the tree, which were
crushed, and the eggs under them. From
this tree probably the young had crawled and
| been carried to other trees, so that
In one block of 140 trees 46 of them had spec
linens, in all amounting to 430 scale. From
another block of 2O5 trees 613 scale were
taken. The work of examination and crush
ing was done in one days time by my chill
dren. Several hundred eggs may be seen
under one of these large scales the eggs are
very long and white. The eggs of one scale
were placed in a phial recently, and a con-
siderable portion of them were Matched out
in week, and developed long, oval, white
insect, moving quickly. It has the usual six
legs and antenr e. There may be but one
brood of them during the season, but possibly
two broods may appear, as when discovered
IN the early part of the winter the insects
were very small many of them indicating
that they had been out but short time. The
observation at the present time shows that
the first Matching is about the Goth of June,
or perhaps the last of the month.
When the leaves have fallen the trees will
be washed with the whale-oil soap and sui
phur mixture. which will probably eradicate
this insect No other scale exists in the
orchard and this one is considered of minor
Importance when compared with the more
destructive insects.
The cooling moth has thus far this season
made but small showing in my orch 1rd, as
| consider it owing to the exceeding care
taken for its suppression last season. The
bands we're applied on the 18th Of May, and
have been examined FIVE times since applied,
with total result of 90 Larvae discovered to
date. This is from 500 trees The same
careful method will be pursued this season as
last. my children having contracted to care for
the bands for the season. A statement Of the
means taken for the suppression of this pest
the past season may be seen 10 the proceed
ings of the State Fruit Growers Convention
for 1882, and which are also briefly described
in circular of instructions officially issued
to thu fruit growers of the State few days
since and published 10 full in the RECORD
UNION.
/ have endeavored TO answer in part the
points presented in your request. and yet
have not been able, for want of space in this
communication, to even touch upon many
matters of the greatest Importance in the
successful care and management of an
orchard. Permit me to impress upon all en-
gagged in horticulture the necessity of constant
vigilance and untiring EFF ,rt in this enjoyable
and ennobling pursuit, if thus carried on, but
one which will only bring loss and discourage
ment if neglected. Respectfully yours.

OUR YOUNG FoLKs.
Beatrice

Slender Beatrice wandered down
The still wood path in the morning early,
Ger last years leaves that were dry and brown.
And grass that glittered with dewdrops pearly
From his bough so high looked the squirrel small,
BeckOned his mate TO come and behold her,
Ran out above her with chittering call
And dropped nut or her pretty shoulder.
Light she stepped, but the little thrush,
Hid in the dusk OF the branches, heard her,
Fitted about her aud broke the hush
With sudden joyous song that stirred her.
The low sun sent her long bright ray,
And pickering golden fans above her,
Sailed the butterfly swift and gay,
Fluttering close, like an airy lover.
The grasshopper skipped and stood on a stone,
Watching as she passed by sedately
The tree toad uttered musical tone,
She was SO fair and sweet and stately.
And when she paused where the water bIimmed,
The gay green frogs sang loud and louder,
And the dragon fly DER the surface SKINNED
And grew Of his splendid armor prouder.
But the wandering south wind, soft and warm.
Touched her beautiful brow and kissed her,
And the lilies looked up at her gentle form
And flower pure face, and they whispered SISTER.

OF tho Recommendation of the President of the
United StAteA, do recommend that Thursday,
the twenty-ninth day of November. instant, be
kept throughout the territory. as q day of
Thanksgiving. prayer and praise to the giver of
every good and perfect gift, for His merciful
Kindness towards us individually and collec-
lively as a people.
As q token of thsnkfulness l further recon-
mend that the people abstain from their Gus
tomary pursuits and avocations on that day

Almighty God for continuance of His gra-
cious favor and protecting care.
Let every church be open and the hands Of

A Washington telegram of the 18th
says:
Gov. Ordway is expected here to look
after the Dakota judgeship, which the
president kindly consented to hold open
until he arrived. It is said that Mr..
Ordway will present the claims of Judge
Shannon, who tavors the capital removal
commission and concurs in Ordwsy's
view concerning the new constitution.
Mr.. Ordway will also try to defeat the
confirmation of Mccoy, recently appoint
ed to the land Office at Aberdeen. The
old charges regarding the Douglas
county bonds will be revived. Before
the appointment Mr.. Ordway forwarded
his protest, but 1t was not received In
time to prevent McCoy's commission
from issuing.
The foregoing will be pleasant reading
to those of our misguided citizens who
aided Judge Shannon IN his efforts to
defeat the constitution. The price of
Ordway's favor was the effort he made
against statehood and probably an agree
ment to stand by the Ordway capital
scheme. 1t is not long ago that Judge
Shannon was expressing himself freely
in favor of just such decision as
Judge Edgerton rendered in the case.
He sat in the court room
and listened to most of the arguments
and did not hesitate t. declare his
opinion in favor of the invalidity of the
capital commission act. There seems te
have been change in his mind, of the
foregoing is correct. 1t also appear
that the change took place about tn,
time of Alex. Hughes visit to Yankton
upon which occasion it was arranged
that Shannon and Burleigh should tax,
the stump against the constitution sns
in the interest of Ordway. It was eA
pected that the governor would open
fight on G. I. Mccoy, but it does no
promise to avail him much, as McCo.
has strong backing.

1h. Pullman Car COMPANY Liable.

1he Paliman Car Company Liable.
Plttsburg, Nov. 12.-In the supreme
court this morning the Judgment of the
lower court was affirmed in the suit Of
Gardner VI. the Pullman Palace Car
company. The case has attracted wide
spread attention. Gardner secured Q
verdict of $500. having been robbed of
valuables while sleeping IN one of the
Pullman cars. The supreme court, in its
opinion, held that the company, while
not liable in action as an inn.keeper or
common carrier, yet reasonable and
proper degree of care is imposed on
them. The main object in taking
passage in such car is to permit passen.
gers to sleep. While in that Lelpless
condition duty rests on the company
to provide reasonable care aud caution
against the valuables of passengers being
stolen from his bed or from the clothes
on his person. This is not q case of rob.
berry by force and violence, but by
stealthy larceny. The fact that another
passenger in the same car was robbed on
the same night was admissible as larce.
ny on the absence of proper care by
the company.
