ID. Hnlsled asserts il tho july
American Aericulturist that nearly
al ofthe insects which attack the cab
bago IN its early growth, also prey up
on the turnip. Among these are
the caterpillars Of q number Of "Cab-
baqe butterflies, 7 easily recognized BY
their whitisn wings, with black mark
ings, and lazy, numbering fight. The
Harlequin CAbhage-bug is a common
pest Ii the South on many plants Of
the mustard family, as cabbages, rad
ishes, mustard, turnips, etc. The
greatest damage to the turnip crop
& done by the Striped-Turnip-beetle
CHaltica striolato). This insect is
sbout one-teuth Of an inch long, of
black color, with broad buff or yel-
lowish stripes on the wing covers.
The larva or worn is white and
slender, with horny, light-brown
head. It's motion is slow and awk-
ward. The pupa Is also white, and
forms an earth0n cocoon in the soil,
in which il undergoes its transfor-
nations. The perfect insects are
very fond Of the young turnip plants,
and do great injury to the seedlings
when they first appear above the soil.
The eggs are deposited on the under
side of the foliage, and soon hatch
into the "worms" that eat their way
between the upper and lower skins Of
the true leaves. The "worms bur
row rapidly for a few days and then
drop to the ground, to pass into the
inactive pupa state. Tho first brood
ofthS "fiSsS appears in May or early
June, and the second in August or
Septenbar. Hot, dry weather Is
most favorable to the beetles, as dur
ing . rain they cannot open and use
their EAuEy wings. On the other
hand, turnips thrive in Hrpist wealth
er, and ought to be hurried on in
such times. The ground should be
in the best possible condition, of tilth
and fertility for rapid growth, and
with q smooth surface, so that the
least time need be taken in passing
through the seed.leaf state. The
bsst, plump, vigorous seed should be
sown thickly. 1t is well to dust the
ysung plants with equal parts Of
wood ashes and land plaster. Air
slaked lime may be used in the same
manner with good effect.

Iceland has great interest in view OF
the fact that so large proportion

frennent the Iceland waters and take up
their positions at various stations along

The Prrsidcnt has Just returned frvtp
a protracted fishing tour.
He caught many bass during TINS
tour. but he lost more votes.
Really, the President has occupied
himself with fishing eyer since he ceased
to be Vice President.
He first went fishing for the Repub-
lican half breed. The Republican half
breed is the true political shark. II
generally takes bait and hook at snap:
In this case the fisherman was swallowed
along with the bait and hook.
Then he went fishing to split the
"Solid South" He caught Malone,
Chalmers, & Co., alias reputation
and general disreputability, made the
0Solid South" more solid, and split the
solid North.
Then he went fishing for praise from
the shoddy and Goldfish aristocrats and
so-called society, and, as devourer OF
choice yiands and illimitable guzzler OF
champagne, gained place in the igno-
bic strife.
He is still fishing; but it is mere force
of habit, for he does not expect to catch
anything.
The fact is the Presidential fisherman
has gone to sleep.
He is not fishing for denomination be

killed the Republican party, it is no

Is there nothing to be done that vii
