etc. is the immature stage of the May
beetle, or "June Bug" noticed usually
in great numbers in early summer.
Its habits are quite different from those
of the Tumble Bug" this latter spe-
| cies depositing its eggs in the balls of
dung which it is seen rolling along in
roads, etc, and the young feed upon the
decaying matter thus provided for them.
They are therefore rather beneficial than
otherwise. The May beetle, on the con-
trary, deposits its eggs in the ground.
particularly in sod, and the larvae feed
upon the roots of such plants as occur in
their vicinity. They are therefore often
extremely destructive to grass, straw
berries, corn, potatoes, as well as to vari-
ous garden vegetables.
The excellent illustrations show the
adult beetles, side and back view, the
Larvae in the act of feeding. and the
pupa in its oval cell awaiting its trans
formation to the beetle stage. Aside
from the injuries to the roots of plants,
there is often much damage caused by
this insect to forest and shade trees,
since the beetles congregate on them
in the night time and cut off the leaves,
sometimes seriously stripping them.
REMEDIES SUGGESTED.
1t has been demonstrated by expert
ment in Washington that grubs of re-
lated species can be destroyed by
drenching the ground with kerosene
emulsion.
But this method. while applicable to
very valuable lawns, would be too ex-
pensive to apply in meadows or pastures,
and probably the best recommendation
that can be made for land seriously in
tested with them is to summer fallow,
and then the next season plant some
crop not attacked by the grubs. Wheat
and oats are so nearly allied to grass
that they would probably be affected
seriously. Corn, if planted quite late,
after the land had been plowed early
the preceding fall, should be reasonably
free from injury. Hogs will root the
grubs out, and moles probably assist in
their destruction. There is parasitic
fungus which grows upon the larvae.

this is sometimes abundant enough to
assist materially in reducing their num-

VALUABLE DISCOVERY.
French Ssvants Testing the Nature o.
Soil by the Color of Plants.

French Ssvants Testing the Nature a
Soil by the Color Of Plants.
M. Georges Vile, French scientific
sgriculturist, after almost thirty years
Of assiduous researches on the expert
mental farm at Vincennes, has made q
remarkable discovery of a relation exist
Ing between the color Of plants and the
richness OF soils in fertilizing agents.
His conclusions, recently reported to the
Paris Academy of Sciences, deserve con-
sideration by all farmers and horticulture
lists.
He finds that the color of the leaves of
plants undergoes marked change when
ever the soil is lacking in phosphate
potash, lime or nitrogen. The color
remains light green or turns to yellow
when the soil is deficient in phosphate
potash or nitrogen. When none of the
fertilizing elements are wanting the
color is dark green.
By his experiments NJ. Vile furnishes
agriculturists with positive indications
by which they can determine with the
greatest facility what kind of fertilizer
the soil needs most or in what elements
of fertility it abounds. His expert
ments should be repeated by our De-
partment of Agriculture and the results
published. The practical information
which might thus be supplied to Ameri-
can farmers would enable many of them
to make two blades of grass grow
where one now grows."-N. Y. Herald.

few years ago of importing half dozen
long -limbed, fresh-comp,exioned British
damsels, with the laudable intention of hav-
ing genuine British "pp5' for the benefit
of Anglomaniacal New Workers. But the
scheme did not work. The average Amer
lean frequenter of bar-rocms has not cult
waited the same kind of idiocy affected by
his British prototype. In an American bar
room the patrons swear and tell objection
able stories between drinks, while in En-
gland the British youth occupy the inter-
walls in the process of getting fuddled in
staring fatuously at the bar-maid. The i'm
ported bar-maids interfered with the COM
fort of the patrons of the place, for man
has to get pretty low down in the scale be-
fore he can take any comfort in swearing
in the presence of a woman, and then the
bar-maid can't mix drinks. Her vast and
comprehensive ignorance of the composition
of cocktails" ''fizzes,'' punches" and
other palate-soothing but misunderstanding
connections Of the American liquor juggler
would do credit to the president of a 7. A.
b. lodge. As a consequence there Is little
or no temptation to drink to excess.
There are many points where we in New
York might to advantage initiate London
fashions and methods. We might, for ex-
ample, introduce decent cab system. In
London one can catch hanson on any cor
ner and ride two miles for a quarter. In
New York the chances are that you will
have to walk several blocks to find cab
and then walk several miles in order to
earn money enough to pay for it. But why
go into comparisons? Our AnglomanIacs
have heretofore initiated English folb,es
and, as might be expected in the case of
creatures of their shallow mentality, have
ignored the valuable lessons which we might
learn from our British cousins. This sea-
son England has been visited, en- route to
Paris, by greater number of really sensi-
BILE Americans than ever before, and the
fact that they are thinking about what they
have seen, and that it forms subject for
conversation, proves that the seeds Of a
more useful Anglomania have taken root

"How is that!"

fessor.
But the Americans are rapid people,
and they show considerable alacrity in
following out the injunction Of she apostle
to '.Try all things" If they will only re-

Road Dust for the Fowls.

One of the things of prime Importance
for the health of fowls, and without
which they can not be kept in an i'm
proving condition, is that they shall at
all times have free access to dry earth or
dust, where they may wal]ow and free
themselves from insects. Through the
dry summer, if they are allowed to run
at large, not much attention to this is
required, as they can generally look out
for themselves, and they will be found
scratching out hollows in the dry ground
and dusting themselves to their great
satisfaction. Now that winter is ap-
preaching provision should be made for
them in advance of wet and muddy
weather, SO that they can continue to
take their dry-dust baths under shelter.
For this purpose nothing is better than
dry road dust, and every one keeping
fowls should lay in a supply while it can
be obtained and keep enough of it for
their use through the winter, when the
ground outside has become wet and
muddy or frozen. Where there are
many fowls it is quite good plan to
have small room with window facing to
the south for this special purpose, rather
than box of dirt in their roosting- place
or nesting-room, so that they may dust
themselves without covering every thing
else with dust. Where there has been a
neglect to provide dusty earth for this
purpose ashes may be substituted. and
answer the purpose very we'll. Persons
who fail to make any provision whatever
and keep their fowls from this time on
until spring without any thing of the
kind, need not expect many eggs, and
will find them suffering from vermin.-

How to Grub Out Old Apple Trees,

As farmers in general like to know
how to make long job short or hard
one easy, an Eastern man tells how to
dig out an apple tree. The usual way is
to dig some dirt away from the base of
the tree and cut off some of the roots
close to the trunk. After this is done it
is very provoking to find sometimes that
the tree will not fall after all, because
some of the roots have not been reached.
His way is this: He makes a circular
excavation from six to eight feet in diam
eter around the tree, digs the dirt away
from the roots and cuts these off at the
trunk and again at the outer edge of
the excavation. Then the roots are out
of the way, and when they are all cut off
the tree will fall. A large tree can be
grubbed out in two hours in this way

sidered. / see young fellows OF Broadway
every day dressed in fashion which would
constitute show on Regent street, and yet
their Irish or German tailor assures them
that they are arrayed in the latest English
fashion. The fact is that the average young
Englishman has a sense of the eternal
fitness of things not exhibited by his cis-atS
lantic imitator. The three-inch checks in
colors so loud that they would discount a
brass band are reserved for country or sea-
side wear. In the city the dark sack or cut
away trock with light trousers is the rule,
and plain white silk four-in-hand is the cor
rect thing in neckwear. The only men who
sport loud suits IN London are the "'Arrys,"
the grocers' clerks and diapers assistants,
and theyonly exhibit their wondrous finery
on Sunday or shank 'oliday at t'Appy Ann
stead" The ambition of seven out Of every
ten of our young New Yorkers seems to ba
to initiate the English, and their method Of
accomplishing that purpose Is by making
themselves look as much like fools as pos,
sible. Nature having given them good
start in that direction they are sometimes
surprisingly successful.

institution which has never taken root in

We have in PARIS the most representative

storers, pills, linimcnts and corn eradi-
Gators ever laid eyes on. Outside of
patent medicines the United States section
resembles nothing SO much as the five-cent

industries, we can hardly blame the for
eigner who cherishes the idea that Brother
Jonathan is a whiting individual much
afflicted with biliousness and kindred COM
