Onr Tanned Vegetables.

According to the American Agr{CULtIT-
ist the great majority Of our vegetables
|are quite unlike the plant in its wild
|s,ate. By cultivation through a long
|serias Of years, some part of the plant,
|that portion most useful to man, has
|.aken on an unnatural development.
4 This may occur in the root, as in the car
'tct; the tuber as in the potato; in the bulb
rs in the onion; in the stem as in kohl
|fabi; IN the leaves as in spinach; in the
|eaf-stalk as in rhubarb, or in the termf-
4 bal bud, Of which the Cabbage is an ex-
Ekmple The fruit is changed in a large
number, as in the squashas, tomato, ETC.,
.and finally the seeds themselves are mndi-
|fed, as the peas, beans, sweet corn, etc.
Those portions have not only been in
Epreased in size, but they have acquired
.beculiar color. flavor, ETC., which add to
&heiryalue. When these plants are grown
Inder favorable conditions, they revert
pore or less to their original wild state.

The LeConte Peer and Insects.

Two weeks ago we published an article
from Liberty county correspondent nd
referred to specimens of insects found bv
him feeding upon the foliage Of the Le-
Conte pear. The insects were sent to the
chronological Bureau, and the following
reply obtained:
u. 5. DEPART OF AGRICULTURE.
DIVISION OF ENTOMOLOGY.
WASHINGTON, July 81.
DEAR SIR-The small yelowish beetle
which you forwarded to me with vour
favor of the 23rd inst. and which is "a in
FURIOUS 10 LaConte pear trees by Kidding
with holes the tender leaves, is a
common and widely-distribute spe-
oies OF leaf-beetles (Chrys0meHdae) de-
scribed as Colaspis flavida. In the more
Northern States it severely INJURIES occa-
sionally grape vines and strawberry
plants III the same manner as it does the
LeConte pear; while its lary;e, an elougate
whitish grub with yello head. is known
to work underground on the roots of
Strawberries. However, since the insect
occurs also where there are no strawber-
rles it is evident that the Larvae must a so
Ieed on the roots oil some other plant. The
pupa is also formed underground.
It's evident that the destruction of this
PNsV ""iAS Az IuO ihI va anu pu pd states Is
quite impracticable, aud efforts to check
its ravages should be directed against the
beetle itself, the most available remedy
being the Earring of the trees. For this
purpose large pieces of cotton cloth sa'-
urated with kerosene and kept open by
cross sticks fastened to the ends are held
under the branches which are Jared by a
sudden blow with a wooden club or stick.
The beetles fall on to the cloths and are at
once disabled and killed by coming in con
tact with the oil Respectfully,

Entom0logist.

Prohibition.

There are Theoretically grave evils |
urking in the wine cup and hiding in
the Incorporate use of Intoxicating
liquors. There is no lover of his
kind in all this bright land who does'n.
recognize this truth, and the problem
as to how the country may be guarded
and protected from these evils is now
exercising the very best minds, not
only of Texas, but of the nation. II
is staggering question and its ulti-
mate solution is fraught with the veal
or the woe of myriads of Gods own
people. Yet for all this there are
winch rise far above such injury as re-
suits from the use of artificial stimu-
lants. In this day rs in the day when
our foreiathers barred their breasts TO
the fight against tyranny and for per-
sonal liberty, we cannot be too care
full how we give up principles for the
founding of which the heroes of '76
gave up their blood and fortunes free
| ly. In a paternal or an absolute gov
ernment like that of Russia it is pos
sible for the government to say what
the people shall eat and drink, what
they shall wear and what sort of
houses they shall inhabit, but in gov
eminent OF the people, when the peo-
pie are sovereign, it can't be done.
Even majority cannot do it. A ma
jority has no legal or God-given
right to say if the minority shall drink
water or wine, eat wheat bread or
corn, 90 to church or stay at home, go
| TO one church and not an other; &c&c
The men who drink whisky pay
their taxes, fight for tho defense of
the country, obey the laws aud per-
form all the other functions of an ac-
copied citizenship, must be permit
ted to order their own lives as they
pleases inside of such lines as these.
The functions of reforms such as
these rest with the people themselves
and not with the laws or with the
government. The reforms contem.
plated by the prohibitionists can only
be worked out by the citizens, by the
people in their private and personal
capacities as such. The fathers. the
mothers, the schools, the teachers and
all the thousand and one moral agen-
cies of the land must find and apply
the remedies in cases where individ-
uals sustain injuries from an improper
use ito them) of the privileges and
rights conferred by their citizenship
Our brave and devoted prohibition
lists are going wrong in this matter.
They are wasting efforts in storming
the impregnable defenses of the rights
of the people instead of dealing the
vice of drinkers deadly blow from q
direction which is perfectly correct in
morals and policy and which is deadly
to all intents and purposes. 1t is a
pity that we cant all see this mat
ter alike for If we did, drunkenness
wouldn't stand as an evil, for twenty.
