Habits OF Frat Worms.

Professor Comstock says: The fall web
worm, the insect which makes the unsightly
webs upon the various fruit and forest trees
during the latter part OF summer aud in
autumn, has attracted much attention this
year. Among various methods employed
to destroy ii one of the most practical is a
web Of cloth tied firmly to the end OF a long
pole, saturated with kerosene, set on fire
aud held under the nest. have used the
same for the destruction of the apple tree
tent caterpillar. Ii is important that these
two insects, frequently COMPOUNDED,
be distinguished, as there are differ
eDces in their habits which must be taken
into account in attempting TO destroy them.
The apple tree tent caterpillar appears on
apple trees in early spring as soon as the
leaves expand. IL makes triangular tent
in the fork of branch. This tent serves
only as a residence. During the warm part
of the day the worms leave the tent and
spread over the trees to feed. IL the tent be
destroyed at such time the greater number
OF worms will escape. The proper time to
use the torch is in early morning, at evening
or during cold, cloudy DAYS. At such times
the woi ms are Ia their tent. In the case
OF both these insec.s it Is obviously
best to destroy them as soon
as possible after the webs are discovered
The fall web worm appears much later in
the season and iafesis many kinds of fruits
and forest trees. TIE web is begun near the
end OF branc' and serves both as residence
and pasture. When the leaves within the
web are destroyed the web is extended to-
ward the trunk of TIE tree so as to Include
other leaves. Thus the fall web worms are
always at home, and may be destroyed at
one time OF the day as we'll as another.
When only few colonies OF either of these
species exist the tents or webs may be cut
from the trees and the worms destroyed
with less trouble than by means of torch I"

Early Potatoes.
farming World.1

In an early variety, you want to combine
earliness with yield. AS the early bird
catches the worm, so the early potato SCOOPS
the profits. If you can get your crop into
market a week ahead of the general early
crop, nine seasons out OF ten your profits are
100 per cent. more. To do this, change
your seed every year and plant the best-25
TO 80 cents per bushel more for seed is a
trtie compared to the results in the crop.
Northern grown varieties are decided

tuber, you secure all the vitality inherent

Ro-ahead truckers know 1T pays to plant
Northern-grown seed. The further north
the better. This is why Early Rose, grown
on Prince Edwards Island and New Bruins
wick are so popular for seed. But the
trouble in getting pure stock is great. as there
are thousands of bushels palsned off for
genuine that were not grown within 500
miles of those places. The genuine are
known by their smooth, plump shape,
being nearer round or oval than our native
crown stock, and having red or deep pink
shade, looking as though they had been
ruled in brick dust. This is caused by the
red shell or ''shalp' they are grown in, and
are peculiar to the northern section of New
Brunswick and P. f. Island. Any reliable
seed houss dealing in them will freely give
a guarantee of their purity. If you can not

Grating stone-Fruit.


While it is more difficult to mako scions
live on cherry, plum or peach tree thsn it
Is on pear, apple or ounce, il the scions be
properly set and cared for most Of them will
grow. The cherry should be grated quite
early in the season; IN Massachusetts, the
last of March is not too early. The plum
may come in a little later. The peach
should also be grated early, bot as rule it
is not good policy TO graft large peach tree.
A bout the only occasion when it is best to
resort to grating the Telch tree is
when, by some oversight OF Tad luck,
The Seeding tree is permitted to get too large
before il is budded. A peach tree that is
more than an inch in diameter is too large
TO bud to advantage, so that tree that is
three-quarters OF an inch in diameter in the
spring will be too large to bud in August;
but, if it is not, at least one year is lost in
waiting to bud it, for If grated in the spring
the graft will, if ii lives, make growth at
once. while if budded it would not grow
until the next season. In grating such
trees it is best to set the scion near the sur
face Of the ground and cover the lower end
with earth; in this way it is very sure to
grow.
The plum and cherry may be grated I'M
der the same circumstances in the same
way; but both the cherry aud the plum
may be very successfully grated when they
become nearly full grown trees. There is
one precaution which should always be taken
when large trees are grated early in the
season, which is to protect the Scioas from
the birds. E4rly-set scions If left exposed
are frequently started FROM their proper
faces by the birds resting on them. 70
prevent this some of the small limbs that
are cut from the tree should be tied on the
grated branches in manner TO protect the
scions In fastening the branch care should
be taken to have it strong enough to prevent
1t from getting loose 80 as 10 touch the
scions.
Those who have never given this subject
any attention aye not aware how large o
proportion of scions set on large trees are
prevented from growing by being misplaced
by passing birds. Scions set late in the sea-
son are no; as liable to be misplaced, because
the time is so short between the setting and
when the scion begins to grow; but when q
tree is grated month before the growing
season commences, unless some protection
is provided, the chances are that the larger
portion of the scions will be started by pass
ing birds before the growing season COM
meuces.

xslimmea MIX for Hens and Chickens.

-
There is nothing better for laying hens in
the spring than milk, after the cream has
been taken off, We kave tried 1t several
seasons with complete success With the
milk given fresh from the dairy room every
day, the fowls will need no other drink, and
il will supply everything required in the
way of animal food. The outlets fed with
milk and corn, and mixture Of cornmeal
and milk, through the cold weather, have
given an abundant supply of eggs. Wheat
bran is also a good article to mix with the
milk. 1t is better to give the
mIxture a boiling and to feed it
in the warm state, but this is not
necessary We have alse found the milk
one of the best kinds OF diet for young
chickens, soon after they come from the
nest, to prom ote their health and rapid
growth. Indian meal, ground coarse and
scalded with milk, is perfect feed for them.
As they grow older, cabbage or onions may
be chopped fine and added to the daily ra-
tions. A portion of the milk on dairy farms,
usually going TO the pig trough, may be di-
verted to the chicken coop with CREST ad-
vantage. Eggs are worth twenty-five cents
dozen, and poultry twenty cents pound,
when pork brings but ten cents pound.

exhaustion of the Soil.
fFarmers. Rexism.l

fArmers ReF1eWi
The Scottish Chamber Of Agriculture has
issued for the Government final report on
the subject of compensation for farmers i'm
provements with special reference to unex-
hausted manures. In this document there
are embodied the views of upward of 600 OF
the leading practical farmers throughout
Scotland. The report gives the proportions
of exhaustion during the years which cover
the active existence of the principal appli-
cations, and indicates the margin to be al
lowed for arabic and pasture land. Lime
Is said to last for two rotations on light
arabic soil, and on hill pasturage con-
sumed by sheep and cattle for thirty
years, save in wet climates. On arabic land
il is generally computed to exhaust at the
rate of one-tenth per annum, but is by some
deemed most beneficial after the first year or
two Horse, COW, and town manures last
from three years on sandy soil to nine years
on clay land, two-fifths being exhausted the
first year. OF guano, bones and phosphates
the greatest endurance is given TO half-inch
bones. which are said to extend over seven
years at the rate of one-tenth per annum.
Bone meal covers six years. with most effect
the first year, while quicker action is as
signed TO dissolved bones. Ammonicsl and
phosphate guano, nirates, sulphates and
special manures are yet more speedily ex-
bsusted, the former often spending its
effects in a single year, though special
manures and cakes sometimes show their
effects over three and four years.

Watering MIX With Brewery Refuse.

Professor Arnold In New York Tribune.l
The enormous amount OF spent grains
which come from the breweries of this coun-
try are all consumed by domestic animals
in the neighborhood of the bre werles, and
by far the larger part of il by milch COWS.
The volume of milk which COW will give
depends very largely on the amount of flesh
producing food she can digest. and brewers
grains, which abound in fiesh-formirg mat
Ter. easy Of digestion by reason of the treat
ment il receives, responds forcibly 10 this
rule. There are but few foods that will
stimulate a large flow of milk equal TO
brewers grains, but there is no butter in il.
When used as an exclusive diet the milk of
cows consuming it soon ceases to produce
any butter. When used as partial iced
the butter product will be gagged by the
other food used with the grains. AS the
grains increase the weight of milk and de-
crease its value for butter production, 1t is
very unfair for patrons of a creamery to
feed grains to their COWS unless all the
patrons do the same. 1t is an artful way
of watering milk-the milk being
watered before II comes from the COW instead
OF afterward. So far as butter making
is concerned, both modes of watering
produce exactly the same results, and, if not
the legal, the moral bearing is the same in
either case. 1t means something for moth
ing: or, to phrase il little more exactly,
il means money for water. By far the largest
part of brewers refuse goes to feed the COWS
which supply with so-called milk the city or
village in which the brewing is done. The
people who purchase the milk expect it
will be wstered "all il will bear and il is q
matter OF little account to them whether the
watering is done before or after milking.
Cows supplying milk to creamery should
have no sour or fermented food.

Raising calves.

Correspondence New Hampshire Mirror.
IL wish to raise calf dropped in winter
let il lie with TIE COW one or Two days, and
let it suck a. much and as often as IL
pleases, unless the cows udder is caked., L
then milk all can before the calf sucks.
After the first two days / take the calf
away and let it go to its mother only twice
a day until week or ten days old, then let
HIM 60 without one feed so as to be pretty
hungry, then put my fingers In the warm
milk and put them in his mouth, at the
same time bearing his nose down
toto the warm milk IN the
sucking well slip the fingers from the the
mouth and let the calf drink, if he will,
few swallows; if not, repeat the operation
two or three times until be gets good taste
of the milk; then leave him until the next
feeding time and then try him in the same
way, and if he will not drink let him go un-
ill he will. Few will go beyond the third
time trying. / seldom have one which will
not drink some the second time. When they
get so they will drink it is a good plan not
to give full mess for two or three days, but
let them be rather hungry at each time OF
feeding until they get the habit of drinking
well formed. AS soon as this is
done, place trough or dish with some meal
in IL in such situation that they can
not turn it over. Nail it up against the side
Of the stall or pen in which the calf is kept,
but convenient to ge. az, and let him eat all
he will, which will not be very much.
Place little hay so he can get it, either
rowen or early-cut herdsgrass Is best The
best meal for a young calf is q mixture OF
oats and corn, ground in the cob, two bush
els of the former to one OF the latter. At
four weeks old SKINNED milk, slightly
warmed. may be substituted for new milk
but for a while should not be allowed to
stand until it gets very sour. After eight
weeks they may be fed and will do well, If
given fair allowance of meal, upon milk
that is even so old and sour.
