COL. IRISH AND HIS CAPABLE FoRCE-A GOOD
WORD FOR WOMEN.
The superintendent of divisions and others in
charge OF work at the Bureau of Engraving and
Printing waited upon the chief Of that bureau
yesterday in a body to wish him happy New
Year. Col. Irish. in few happy remarks, re-
turned the compliment. In the Course uf these
remarks ne spoke Of the close and pleasant
daily intercourse that he has had for the past five
or six years with the superintendent aud with
the large forcs employed in the bureau He
alluded to the high sense Of duty that animated
the entire force. and stated that he believed
there was not SO large force Of men and women
employed In any governmental or private cstab-
lishment so thoroughly in earnest i'm the dis
charge Ofthe duties devolvfng upon tn m a. were
the force in this bureau. He also spoke of the fact
that the Bureau of Engraving and Printing " az
one of the first institutions IN the world ir
which the employment OF women in positions of
official trust and responsibility had been tried
aud proved successful When he first entered
the bureau he was struck with the fact that
Ladies were occupying positions as supprsatead-
ents Of divisions, and otherwise discharc!ng
duties of great responsibility, and he had closely
observed the manner of their discharge IF these
duties in order to become satisfied that the in
ferests of the government were protected and
he had become entirely satisfied that they were
He concluded by hoping that the comm" wear
would be to all one Of increased usefulness
prosperity and happiness.

An Efectual Insect Killer.

Kerosene, showered upon plants, is very
penetrating, and destroys insects in all
stages of developments, even to the eggs.
Two parts of kerosene to one of sour milk
is proper proportion. If fresh milk is not
at hand, condensed milk, diluted TO the
same strength, may be employed. This
mixture is successfully used for the scale
insect IN orange groves of Florida, and can
be, It is thought, employed to destroy
Chinch- bugs. A mixture of water and 3
per cent 6l kerosene is deadly to the bugs,
and does no harm to the growing corn. By
spraying few outside rows, ,nearesta ripen
ing field Of wheat, the whole area of corh
can be protected from the second brood o.
the destructive Chinch. bug. The apparatl S
tor the cheapest and best application of the
emulsion is yet to he devised. Doubtless t
sprinkler drawn by two horses could b,
made, that, by passing between the rows Of
corn, would spray them quickly and ei
feetively
All farmers seriously troubled with in
sees should give kerosene trial. By using
a cheap grade of petroleum, the expense lie
small, and, with the necessary apparatus
for applying the emulsion, safe and su,
cessful war may be waged against the in.
sect enemies. Much depends upon prompt
ness, and energy therefore, the farmer
Should be prepared to act at the earliest
warning. A barrel of kerosene, and a gar
den force pumF,with necessary attachments
E, ady for use, may come to be as essentia
part of a well-equipped farm, or fruit aud
vegetable garden, as Are extinguisners in 0
city. Try the mixture on a small area, to
lftermine the proper strength 1t may b,
that one proportion is best Tor the Potato
beetle, and another for the Cabbage worms
etc. but the emulsion must never be

is sPrayed.-As~iculturiSt.

Use Borax in Washing.

In employing common, cheap, but clean
soap, often put less than level teaspoon
iui Of powdered borax into the bottom
my tub, pouring hot water on it, and then
cooling to the proper degree. This borax
makes the washing more easy, and is good
for the hands, healing them when chapped,
and leaving them in good condition after
washing. Whatever god soap you use, it
is not necessary to boil the clothes, but this
process helps in most cases, especially if the
clothes are well stirred about in the boiler.
It is not best to leave them actually boiling
many minutes, as this will turn them vel.
low. The whole washing may be done
without warm water, if desired, but more
or stronger soap must be used, and the la.
Dor is harder. We want tS loosen the dirt
between the fibres Of the cloth as easily as
possible, and then to rinse it all away. That
is the philosophy of making soiled clothes
clean.-F. E. R., in American Agricuiturlst
