Broken In health and fortune, Mr..

man az their head, asked the admins
tration TO place him at the head OF u bu,
reau in the Interior Department, but In
stead he was given tho on 70 he held
when no died, aud II was given, ~ his
friends believe, at the lnetigatioD Of his

lutte need OF the small salary attached
for the support Of his family alone In
duced him TO accept II. He told the
writer, on the day OF hls departure, that
he knew he was going TO his death, and
would be brought home for burial In ak
months.

SORROW FOR HIS DEATH.

FARM NOTES,

THE CURCULIo. The difficulty OF
growing plums, apricots, ~nectarines,
sfc has been well known for half a
cenfury. The curculio makes a cres.
cent.IIke incision in the thin skin, de-
nesting its egg, which matches out and
lives on the Young fruit, causing it to
dron prematurely. The best remedies
are keeping fowls in the plum orchard;
and iarTiug down the insects on sheets
snread under the tree, striking a smart
how with a mallet or hammer on the
end of asmall limb sawed off an inch or
so from the tree, or on a spike driven
into the tree for the purpose. This jar
ring-down needs to be done every morn
ING. killing the curculios which fall
down fthey pretend to be dead at irstl;
and il does not take as much time as
one would think. DIR. Hull's remedy
Is also of considerable value, and may
be used in connection with the forego-
ing. 1t is placing chips under the
trees. forming hiding places for the in
sects. where they can be found and kill
ed. The shaking must be begun early,
and continued until the fruit is fuD
grown.

II takes two hundred and fifty BUSH
els of potatoes to make a ton of potato
starch. Its manufacture, which is very
simple, is as follows: After being thor
ougnly washed and freed from dirt, the
potatoes are reduced to a pulp by means
of a crater. The pulp, placed in a
sieve, SIS washed by streams of falling
water, the starch being carried through
the sieve into a proper receptacle, and
the fibre washed away as waste. The
starch is carried with the water passing
through the sieve into a stlrrlng-tank,
in which it is washed from the timer
particles of waste, and, being heavier
than water, sinks to the bottom 1t IS
then further cleansed in other tanks by
washing and stirring, until the water is
clear and is drawn off.

mixture will not only vanquish the APP

thoroughly stir into the mixture one

the best way to apply it is to rub it on
thoroughly with a heavy cloth, using
the hands also duringthe operation.

FEEDING HOSTILE popular idea
that a hog cannot hurt itself by over
feeding is erroneous. Even if fatten'
ing, it is better to give only what can
be eaten up clean at one time and at re-
gular intervals. If the feeding occurs
at stated times each day, the hogs will
lie down and sleep in the intervals, and
this will fatten them faster and be more
healthful than keeping food before the
animals all the time. A mess of
partially-eaten food left in his trough is
distasteful even to "a hog, and makes
him eat less in quantity and with less
| relish than he otherwise would.
