Between the altitude OF 5000 and 5000 feet
is the favorite locality for cochineal raising
During the last days of May, Immediately
before the annual rains begin, great branches
OF eaoti, covered with the insects. are cut
OF, and stored in a building erected for the
purpose TO protect them from the weather
At the close of the wet season, or about the
middle of October, the plantations are re-
stocked from these supplies by suspending
little nests, made of jute, maguey, or any
other soft, woody fibre, upon the spines of
the growing nopal, each nest containing a
dozen female insects. Warmed by the tropic
sun, they soon emerge from their semi-oOm.
Atose condition and b' gin to lay eggs with
marvellous rapidity, each female producing
more than a thousand young. The new crop
Immediately spreads over the plants, the fe-
males at once swelling TO a surprising size and
attaching themselves 10 closely TO the nOpal
az TO become almost part Of it, 40 that they
resemble vegetable eXorescences rather than
animated insects. In this condition they are
gathered for oOohineal, the pregnant females
only being valuable for commercial purposes.
The males are comparatively few in number,
not more than one 10 hundred and fifty fe-
males, and are of no use for coloring mate
rial. The females are picked of with a
blunt knife collected with baskets, and
killed by dipping into boiling water or by
baking them in Ovena or on plates OF iron.
The first crop is gathered about the middle
OF Deeemabr, and subsequently several more
OF as many successive generations are obtain
cd. An expert laborer can pick only about
two ounces OF oocbineal In a day. These
lose at least two-thirds of their weight in the
process OF drying. As II requires not less
than 20, 600 insects TO weigh a pound, and
the average retail price Of the commodity is
only 20 cents pound in the United States,
it will be seen that the ooohineal business Is
by no means a sinecure for the operative.
When the living insects have been immersed
In boiling wator they turn to reddish
brown, losing much of the white powder
with which the wrinkles of their body is load
cd. When dried In an oven they retain this
powder, and then their color is grey, but
when baked on hot iron they become black.
This accounts for the 40 called varieties of
the same bug, known In the market az silver
grains, black grains and foxy grains. - qua

A GOOD STORY OF AN oLD-TIME WESTMINSTER
Minister
from the Congregationalisi. J


from the Congregationalist.l
The following story is told of the grand.
father of Rev. Joseph W. Sessions, whose
o4th birthday has just been passed at Chap
lin, Ut. There was great scarcity of pro.
visions, so their living was moatly potatoes
and salt. Near suns,t one Sunday afternoon
the good deacon saw deer come out of the
forest near his house, and regarding this rs a
providential supply Of his family, he took
down his gun and shot the deer. The church
lat Westminster, Vt. called him to account
for breaking the Sabbath, but he justified
himself, alleging that it was a work of both
necessity and mercy but the church instruct
ed the pastor TO read the sentence Of exoom-
municatiOn from the pulpit on the Sabbath
He called upon the deacon to arise aud re.
oeive his sentence. The deacon arose. but az
the minister was about 10 read, the deacon,
reaching behind him, grasped his gun, which
he had carried to church, and, pointing it at
the head of the minister, said in the most
determined tone, II forbid the reading of
that paper" The minister quietly said, IAN
things are lawful unto me, but all things are
not expedient. think it not expedient 10
read the paper" The deacon lived and died
a member and an officer of the church.
