Avoid Farm Mortgages.

Mr. Il. A Haigh gives the following VIII ole
some advice on mortgages to farmers lin the
American Agricultural for August: Mort
cages are necessary and beneficial in civiliz sd
society, bat there are unpleasant features
about them. They often enable man to
accomplish what he could not otherwise do.
and they also often involve man who
would have been otherwise successful. They
often enable a man to get out of trouble
which he could not otherwise avoid, and
they perhaps equally often make miserable
a life which would have otherwise been
happy. 1t is easy to get them on to the
farm, but il is not always so easy to get them
of. Farm mortgages are about the best in
vestments that capital can find. Investors
generally like them. They partake of the
nature, permanence, aud other substantial
qualities of real property, but are relieved
from many burdens imposed upon land.
Therefore: (l) Do not mortgage the farm
until it seems absolutely necessary. 3 1T as
q general rule is less valuable than par
ticuIar one. it may be we'll to specify. by add
ing: p Do not mortgage TO build fine
house BY so doing, you will have to pay
money fer an investment which does not
brig money. (3l Do not mortgage the farm
10 buy more land. When there is absolute
certainty that more can be made out of the
land than the cost of the mortgage, this rule
might not apply. But absolute certainty is
rare mistaken calculation is common. (4)
DO not mortgage the farm uless you are sure
of the continued fertility of its s0il. Many
persons borrow with an expectation OF re
payment based on an experience of the lands
Ill
the land less productive, and the means OF
repayment thus be removed. In this way
trouble begins, which may result in the loss
of the farm. Keep very clear of mortgages.

summer fruit, but is so hardy, productive

Insect enemies OF wheat makes late sowing,

but contract, fine soil that is desired Ii
may be compacted with the roller and har-

much labor. and it will do the work of pre-
pairing the soil far better than he can alone.
Another object gained by early blowing is
the destruction of weeds. They are robbers
of the wheat, and the fooner their growth is
stopped by blowing the less plant-food they
will take from the soil. Early blowing will
destroy them before they mature their seeds,
eLd thus prevent perpetuating their kind.
Late blowing admits OF large growth, and

The Grnna Vine PInma.

"A caterpillar with a very long name (Pte-
rophorus periscelidsctylus) works in an in
teresting manner upon The grape vines
About the time third cluster is forming on
a vigorous shoot, the young leaves at the ex-
tremity may be found fastened together,
making a cavity, in which one or more cater
pillars find retreat. The mature insect is
moth of tawny yellow color, with a very
rspid fight. The wings are split up into
featbeT-like lobes, and on this account the
insect is known as the Grape Vine Plume.
The Larvae hatch soon after the grape leaves
begin 10 expand. At first the caterpillars are
nearly smooth, but after each change of
skin the hairs become larger and more
numerous. They feed for about a month
upon the tender grape leaves, and then, fas-
ening themselves by the hind legs to the
under side of leaves, etc., they change into
the inactive or pupa state. A second brood
is not known, bat if there is one, it can do
but little injury.
The method OF treatment is hand picking.
The part attacked should usually be re-
moved in the summer pruning or pinching
and therefore the Plume is not very destruct-
i've. Sometime the third cluster of grapes is
included in the fold of leaves and silken
threads, and if this is to be preserved, care
must be taken in removing the unsghtly
twisted tips of the infested branches.

The sheep Grub.

During the hot days of midsummer sheep
often huddle together with their noses upon
the ground, or in some other Constrained DO.
siuon. This is done partly to secure them
from the attack of the Fostering gad-fy
(EstIus ovis) which is the parent OF the
grub in the head. The insect is closely re-
lated to the bot fly, that deposits its eggs
upon the neck, shoulders and forelegs of
horses, from which they are removed by the
teeth of the animals to ailay the itching and
are taken into the stomach and develop into
the troublesome bots. The female sheep CAD
fly aims to deposit her eggs in the nostrils of
the sheep, and the amin ais, apparently aware
IF the effects 10 follow. try to prevent il.
If the eggs are laid they soon hatch, and the
young grubs ascend the nostrils greatly to
the distress of the affected sheep. The
worms" attach themselves to the
siDuses of the nose, by means OF
hooks like these of the horse bot, and
live upon the mucus secretions of the ir-
ritated surface TO which they cling. When
fully grown, the grubs work their way down
through the narrow openings, by which they
entered when first Matched, and again cause
the sheep much pain. The grubs fall to the
ground, and burrowiDg for few inches be-
come chrysalids, which develop into the per.
feet flies in about two months. The grubs
pass from the sheep in early summer, and the
flies come out Of the ground from July to
September. A dsub of TAR upon the nose is
the best preventive a1d should be fire.
Quently applied during the summer months.
This may be done by sprinkling some meal
or salt over the tar in trough, when the
sheep will apply ii themselves as they eat the
meal. Some farmers ploY burrows in the
pasture, to furnish the sheep good place to
bury their noses. The sheep grub is not fatal,
bot very dissgreeable, and doubtless has a
6td effect on the general health of infec ed
sheep. II any one desires to study the grubs,
