an Enemv of the Olive.

TheGilroy Gazette notes that destructive
pest to the olive is likely to make its ap-
pearanee this and during next month. 1t
is specie of the fly with hard-shell wings
(genius an:homysia). Its depredations are
made by boring in the very heart of the
tree, thus sapping and checking the vital
ity OF it. Spraying the tree with mixture
of concentrated lye in proportion Of three
pounds TO fifty gallons Of water, in which
has been dissolved one and one-half ounces
Of blue stone,will kill off the insect without
doing damage to the tree or fruit. s. W
Fitzpatrick has kindly furnished US this in
formation. In reference to the use OF
arsenical remedies to kill the insects. Mr.
Fitzpatrick thinks they should be very
sparingiy if ever used, for the reason that
the poison might possibly be retained upon
the fruit and makes its consumption dan
gerous and unhealthy.

this truthful excerpt from floating para
graph on the subject: "The same care
given to growing crops should be bestowed
on newly-planted trees. The ground must
be stirred and kept from baking to brick
like mass of dry clay. In many instances
this can be done by mulching, but good
culture is far preferable, if for nc other
reason than to prevent the harboring Of

WAY OF MAKING.

fREcoRD-USIoN Fashion Correspondence. 7

SARATOGA, August Is, 1888
Independent waists are leading feat
ure and remarkable for prettiness and
convenience. Materials hitherto thought
quite unsuitable are utilized, and with
advantage, the most notable being the nets
of the day in all their different colors and
patterns. Most of the nets, though va
ried by stripes, dots, leaves, buds, etc, are
in solid color, and placed over surah and
satin to match; but cream color Or black,
with small colored figures, or in black pat
terms, or striped, give change and the
foundation is according to fancy. The
usual way of making is especially becom-
ing TO their figures, since tuc!ls or shirring
about the neck, in yoke style, are pre-
lude to fullness below, while the sleeves,
if need be, can show succession Of pufs.
Point d'esprit is in great favor for indie
/ pendent waists or entire dresses In
black they should always, of course, be Of
! silk; but colored cotton point desprit is
not at all shabby, and makes pretty waists
I over inexpensive silesia lining Light
weight silk IS likewise very popular for
these waists, and is also made up With
| tucks or shirring, with fullness below.
Grape de chine is lovely substitute; but,
/ indeed, all thin fabrics, including lawn or
null, are pressed into service and with
charming result. The skirt portion can
be worn either tucked in or outside, and
they are often belted in by ribbon with
| fiat Of long loops and ends, on one side,
! while their popularity has brought about
I q demand for BELTS, which display special
novelty, being Of dressed OF undressed kid
in stylish shades Of tan, gray or blue or
Russian leather, with new design buckles
of gilt, steel or silver. Stout people are
warned against these waists, and can the
more readily avoid them, since independent
| basques are quite as fashionable. Here
| the material is, of course, heavier and the
| fit closer, and by choosing dark colored,
tight fitting basque, q plump woman can
wear skirt of light or bright color which
should otherwise he denied her. The fit
of Independent basques is very important
and fashionable dressmakers here are Civ
ing preference to the Thompson glove fit
ting coTsets, not only because Of the long,
slender waist and high bust, but because Of
individual adaptation since they come in
three sizes, short, medium and long, so as
to suit everyone. Those made in pale rose
color, blue, dove or scarlet satin are most
worn in this dressy place, but equally well
fitting styles come in coutil or jean al mod
crate prices.

PRETTY THROATS.

After years of Imprisonment in high.
stiff collars, pretty throats can at last be.
come visible, since fashion allows the
dress neck to come down in very becom-
ing point. High collars as yet, however,
are the rule and in general continued with
scrupulous care for the uncomfortable as
witness the hot velvet bands placed about
the necks of sateen, gingham, India silk
and other dresses selected for coolness and
reserved for hot days. Some thin necked
people, also, with marvellous blindness
to their OWE defects, are thoughtlesz
enough to wear dresses open at the throat,
while plump and white complexiored
women neglect a possibility 50 long de-
MED them. This is rs surprising as the
Infatuated manner in which mammoth
women persist in chosimg mammoth
patterned dresses, and thin women mar
row stripes. The former class, il truth,
are peculiar feature at Saratoga, and the
composure with which they display them
selves in rigs intended for the tall and
slender, is study. If rightly chosen,
however, almost every one looks TO Id
