Tuesday night the women of Philadel

mcmy of theirs in the city that they
have long dreaded. The enemy was the
celebrated buffalo moth, the destroyer
IF carpets. Millions of these moths were
blown into Philadelphia by favoring

that "in short time millions and mill

Preservation of the Eyssight.

TIE best preservative of eyesight is
outdoor exercise. A cold bath every
morning stimulates the circulation,
and with an active bounding of the
blood through the arteries assimila-
ton and elimination bring about good
results. Heated rooms with poor
illumination are a prolific source of
weak eyes. Reading or writing with
light calling on the page, and retec-
ting it's rays into the eyes, often brings
about a spasm of the little muscle
which govern the accommodation,
and the result is to exhaust the eyes.
The light should always come from
behind the individual, and fall obli'
uueIy over the left shoulder. People
who indulge in overlooking, are care
less about clothing, travel with damp
feet, or dine irregularly, all suffer
sooner or later from defective vision.
4 habit quite common among fassion
able ladies, to whom nature has de
MED brown or black eye, is to seek
the secrets of the chemists shop and
applya weak solution of belladonna
or homatrophine to dilute tho pupil
and render the cornea more brill ant.
Even the cologne bottle has been
drained of its contents to give bril-
liancy to the eye. Such habits are
only spoken of to be condemned. Let
The natural lubricant be the only cos
metic used. See that the tear ducts
are kept healthy by proper meansand
nature will then do her duty.

Thai CcEStS,

We have been favored by Mr..
Spur, county auditor, with bulletin
from the experiment station Of the
agricultural depal tment, of the state
univel sity; which contains much val
uable information for farmers.
Among others, is one subject which
the farmers know something about,
and it is to be hoped they know as
much as they ever will know of that
subject. Viz. the Rocky Mountain
locust. or grass hopper. But i'll case
they ever should return 10 atflict us,
this paper contains something worth
knowing. We extract the following:
In 1883 there were destroyed in Of
tertail county, 350G0 bushels Of these
insects. Parasites destroyed about
half The eggs laid. few eggs were laid
in we'll soddeG pasture land, and few
i'm ground we'll covered "ith timothy.
Nor in old stUObles we'll covered with
pigeon grass, owing to the numerous
fine roots in the ground. A few on
road sides, and or rail road tracks.
The place most used for laying eggs,
are in fields being cultivated. The
state and county used every effort to
destroy the nests. They experiment.
ed on blowing them under with the
following results.

One field seeded to wheat produce

One field seeded to wheat produced
q good crop of hoppers, but it was
found that it was neither fall or
spring pIowed, but lightly narrowed.
1t seems by this that late fall blowing
after the eggs are layed in the ground,
or spring blowing before they are
Matched out, will destroy them. They
cannot reach the surface if buried
the ordinary depth blowing is done.
From the experience Of 1853 and 1889
the people of Ottertail county believe
they have the pests under control, land
if every one cultivatlng lard in the
infested region will do their duty
vigorously, there need be no fears for
1890. There seems to be no danger
of another invasion from their breed
ing places IN the Rocky Maintains.
