4. she Cotteny -Cushien scale
Inturieus ?


Injurious ?
EpIros HRRAI.D;--In recent issue Of
the HsEALD appeared . report Of an in
terview with q certain gentleman OF this
city who is accredited with making the
assertion that the cottony.cushion scale
is not injurious to the trees it infests. as
Il only feeds upon the fungus growing
upon the trees. That this is far from
being the case any person can prove to
his own satisfaction by an observance Of
these insects upon any badly infected
tree, with the aid Of an ordinary hand
Ions and : microscope Of conaidsrsbls
magnifying power.
Upon removing one Of the nearly
grown insects which we lind crawling
about the tree and examining the under
aide of its body under high magnify
ing power we find black tubercle stu
ated between the first two pairs Of legs.
and from the apex Of this tubercle issue
three slender bristles, which eonprise
| the beak Of the insect, by means Of
/ which its food Is obtained.
II, now, we loosen each OF the feet OF
| one Of these insects situated upon the
| ind ct aide Of the branch Of . tree, we
| find that, instead Of falling to the
ground. it is still attached to the tree;
and. BIZ examining closely with the lens,
| we end that the organ OF attachment Is
the beak described above, which Is in
serted into the bark Of the tree.
l say into the bark, because II we
sorape away the fungus with sharp
knife we find that the beak Of the insect
passes entirely through this fungns
growth aud enters the bark itself.
Almost every person who has seen
| these insects clustered upon the trunk Of
. tree has noticed that the bark Is wet
| for considerable distance around and
especially below them, and also that the
lower leaves and branches upon badly
| infested trees are covered to Q great
extent BY . sticky liquid, and II we
examine for some time one OF these in
| sects under lens we will see . globular
drop of . semi-liquid substance issue
FROM . pore situated on the back Of the
inssct, near the posterior end Of its body,
AID II this drop chances 10 fall upon any
object il breaks and scatters itself to .
considerable distance around; this, then,
| il the source Of the wet spots we find
/ upon the trunk and lower branches OF
| infested trees.
From what souvce do these insects OBJ
| tain their supply Of this liauid substance
Certainly not from the fungus, since
there Ii not sufficient moisture in the

OIL YOUR BOOTS AND SHOES.

The efficacy Of oiling depends
much upon the way in which it is
done. In the evening brush The
shoe clean, and then wash it with
lukewarm water, rather to mOisten
than to clean it. Set it where 1t
will dry slowly. 1t should not be
perfectly dry the next morning,
when the oil is applied, bat feel
damp, not wet, however. The best
mixture for oiling shoes is made Of
one-half of neat's-foot oil-be sure
you get the genuine article-one-
third beef talIow, and one sixth
castor oil. Mix thoroughly over
gentle heat. Depend upon the rub
bing rather than the heat to get the
oil into express it differently, two
parts of rubbing to one of heat. If
the shoes are pegged, as farmers
shoes usually are and always should
be, get the oil in well between the
uppers and the sole it will prevent
the sole pulling loose, or the leather
breaking away from the peeH
Shoes worn at farm work should be
oiled at least once a week. II re-
quires only a few minutes to do the
work, and it IS decidedly profitable
labor.-Americaa Agrieultarist for
November.

WATERING SHEEP.

A NEGLECTED CROP.

1t would be better for us if We
considered the manure made on the
farm as a crop; and it is strange
that we do not do so, for it is a pro.
duct of the farm and has a money
value as much as corn or hay or cot.
ton. When we once consider ma.
nure as crop, We will take Just as
much pride in making a big crop Of
manure as of corn; and we will no
more allow part of the manure crop
to go to waste, than we would part
of the wheat or hay crop. General
~ but little can be charged against
the production of the manure crop;
all the cost is often the expense Of
harvesting gathering and storingD,
this crop. On the most fertile farms
this crop is worth to the farmer sew.
eral times the cost of harvesting il.
And it is the greatest wonder of our
farming that we do not start out in
the fall with a determination to
make "a better manure crop than
our neighbor, as we start out in the
spring with a determination to make
a better oat, potato or tobacco crop.
The cleanly man will harvest a large
manure crop, because he will gather
up all refuse and put it in the CON.
post heap. He will have clean
stables, clean barns, clean yards-a
clean farm ; and cleanliness is the
