The kirnles.

The Kirmes, or more properly kirmesses,
is an annual festival peculiar to the Ger
mans, the Flemish, the Austrians and the
Russians. Every town of these countries
has its annual fair, to which the young
men and women of the neighboring vii
lagos look forward as the haIcyon day of
the year. Scores of booths are erected in
town square or chief market place, in
which everything can be purchased, from
gingerbread to jewelry. Here the youth
full SWANS purchase the gorgeous neckties
which are to charm their Chloes, and here
are to be found the wondrous umbrellas,
long-stemned pipes, wooden shoes, beer
jugs and countless useful and useless odds
and ends usually treasured in Teutonic,
or in Flemish household, and which are
so many "reminiscences of past kirmesses.
But not alone to sale and barter is the
kirmes devoted. Every evening all avail
able space is cleared, and for hours the
young people revel in picturesque dances.
No prettier scene can be witnessed than
the comedy and healthy-loolling village
maidens, with their bright kirtles and
jaunty bodices, covered with spangles and
coins, tripping merrily in heel-and-toe
measures with young men in red knee
breeches, velvet waistcoats and peaked
hats. The most famous of these fairs, and
it is said to be the largest in the world, is
held annually during the months July
23d to August 22d, at Mini Novgorod, in
Russia, and about 265 miles east of Mos

The potato viewed as an article of
food has few nutrient principles to recon-
mend it, says the Popular Science Nears.
but as a table luxury it is highly esteemed
in all lands where it has been introduced.
The waste of the body which is constantly
occurring, sleeping or waking must be
met by a supply of food which contains the
chemical principles fitted to replenish and
sustain the body. The element nitrogen
is the important agent in foods which
supplies force or energy, and this the po-
tato holds only in insignificant quantities.
1t is capable of supplying warmth to
considerable extent, but it cannot be
regarded as a carbonaceous food of high
value
The only people in the world who have
fallen into the grievous error of striving to
subsist almost entirely upon potatoes are
the Irish. 1t cannot be doubted that nearly
or quite all the ills that trouble unhappy
Ireland are due to the humble potato. The
Irish are the meanest-fed people living in
civilized land of which we have any
knowledge; they are in a condition of
semi-starvation, even when in their highest
prosperity. Every visitor in Ireland is
struck with the pot-bellied" appearance
Of the natives, men and women. The
abnormal distension of the abdominal
walls is due to the enormous amount of
potatoes witch they are compelled to con-
sumo in order to maintain toIerabe
decree of health. If this people would
quit the cultivation of the potato, and
supply its place with grain cereals, Ireland
would soon become happy and prosperous
nation.
The Irish problem is regarded by Eng
lish statesmen as an exceedingly intricate
one. 1t is certainly of nature which can
not be solved by angry debates in Parlia-
ment or by Ministerial changes. But if
the English landowners will take the
trouble to visit Ireland, and remain long
enough to change its soil production from
potatoes to cereal grains, Irish riots and
discomfort will soon cease.
Halfstarved men and women can never
be happy, and an exclusive diet of pota-
toes, no matter how large the quantity
used, will only serve to maintain people in
feeble, half-starved. revolutionary, quar-
relsome Commercial Gazette.

Fighting Apple Insect pe.ts.

California fruit-growers will be inter-
ested in the manner of fighting the insect
pests in the East, and hence the following /:
In Bulletin No. 8 of the Ohio Agricult-
ural Experiment Station, an article by the
station entomologist, Clarence NJ. Weed,
Is published concerning spring and sum-
mer treatment of apple orchards to pre-
vent insect injuries. 1t says:
There is now known but one generally
successful practical means of preventing
the injuries of the Goblin moth-that is
spraying with arsenites. That this is sue
cessful preventive the sister sciences of
entomology and horticulture both attest
and there is now no good reason why the
fruit-growers of Ohio should permit the
destruction of large portion of their fruit
by this little pest.
The essential point in this method of
treatment is to have a small quantity of
poison lodge in the depression in the bios
som end of the apple before it turns down
on its stem, the supposition being that
when the newly-hatched caterpillar gnaws
the skin preparatory to entering the fruit,
it will eat sufficient poison to be killed.
This end is best accomplished by applying
the poison in water spray by means of a
force-pump and spray nozzle, throwing the
liquid above the tree so that it will settle
in fine mist. This should be done Just
after the blossoms have fallen, when the
apples are about as large as peas / be-
lieve that, generally speaking, one applica-
tion will answer the purpose very well,
unless there is washing rain soon after
wards, in which case the application should
be repeated
| prefer London purple to Paris green,
as it is cheaper, less liable to scorch the
tree, more easily seen and in finer powder,
and hence is more readily kept in suspen-
sion. A safe and effective proportion is
three-fourths of pound to eighty or one
hundred gallons of water. Paris green
may safely be used in the proportion of
one pound to one hundred gallons of water.
The poison should be formed into paste
with little water, before stirring into the
larger receptacle.
Of course it must be remember that
these substances are deadly poisons, and all
reasonable care should be taken that no
accidents occur through their use. Pro-
tect the hands of the operator with close
fitting gloves, and apply the spray so that
it will not be breathed by men or horses.
Keep stock out of the orchard for some time
after the application is made, and do not
spill the poison in quantity on the ground
where it will be accessible to animals of
any kind. Always keep the poison itself
in tight vessels, plainly labeled POISON,
and out of reach of children. No danger
need be feared from eating mature apples
that were poisoned when the size of peas,
for chemical analysis has shown that the
extremely small amount of poison that
lodges on the fruit is dissipated long before
the crop natures.

Mountain Lions Climb Trees.

In answer to the question whether noun
tain lions climb trees, | know of nine in
stances of their doing so.
In 1873 one was freed By a sheepdog and
killed by a Mr.. Geyter, on Mount St. He.
lena, in California.
In 1877 Mr.. Russell loaned dog to a
friend of his, who freed and killed two by
the aid of the dog. on White river, w. T.
In 1884 Jim. Kinsey, bear hunter,
freed and killed two with the aid of FIVE
bear dogs in the Bald Hills, Humboldt
county, Cal.
In 1887 Dan Boyle, prospector living a
few mikes from here, started out with a
pointer dog to look for pheasants one day.
He had not gone far, when his dog came
down the trail at the rate of sixty miles
per hour with a lion in pursuit Mr..
Boyle raised his Winchester and fred, at
which the lion sprang to the trunk of a fir
tree and started for the top, where he was
killed by the gentleman, and lodged in the
tree, which was cut down to secure his
scalp, which, in this country, is worth Sc
or So.
In 1887 d. Maxwell freed, by the aid of
one dog, and killed at least one of the
gentry.
In 1887 Mr.. jenkins, living near here,
borrowed the Maxwell dog and freed and
killed one.
In 1885 or 1856 German started from
4 store few miles from here to 90 home
with dollars worth of sugar, piece of
bacon and pair of boots, all in sack.
Before he had gone far on the trail he be-
came aware of the fact that he was being
followed by lion. He hurried, but so
did the lion, and finally he dropped his
sack and started on run through the
woods. Arriving at home he got his dog
and gun and started back. He found the
sack with the provisions and boots torn to
pieces. The dog soon struck the track and
freed the animal, when the German COM
meneed to pump lead. At the fourteenth
shot the lion bit the dust.
Now, if they WON'T climb trees, and che

ca, | would like to know the reason Why ?
