Tho Grain Plant Louise.

The grain plant louise, an insect closely
related to the ''green fly of house
plants, has seriously injured the wheat
and oat crops in many sections. Its
raids have extended from Ohio west to
Indiana and north to Grand Rapids.
Mich. AS yet no practical artificial rem
edy for this pest is known. At the Ohio
Experimental station, at Columbus, they
have found that kerosene emulsion will
destroy them. The difficulty, however,
of reaching them with this substance,
when they occur on the under surface Of
the leaf or embedded in the chaff of the
head, makes the remedy hardly practi-
cal. The injury to the wheat will be
manifested by the shriveling Of the
grain, due to the extraction of the sap
necessary for its perfect development.
Fortunately the pest has many enemies
that prey upon it, included among which
are the Larvae of various species of lady
bugs.

High Stepping Horses.

notice that the breeding of these is
much oftener recommended at present
in the agricultural papers than formerly.
True, the action of such is more snowy,
and on that account is preferred by those
ignorant of its injurious effects upon the
horse. He has to lift his feet to an ex-
ira height, which is tiresome, and pre-
vents his accomplishing in such actions
as great distance per day on q journey
as he otherwise would if not obliged to
raise his feet so high, and this with con-
siderable less fatigue at the end of the
day. AS the feet are replaced on the
ground, the impact of high steppers is
much more forcible than of others, and
this is particularly injurious to the feet
and legs. When travelling on stony
road or a pavement have seen horses
made SO lame in a few months, or even
weeks, of such work that they had to be
withdrawn from use and turned out on
soft pasturage for some time to recruit
Even with this relaxation they were I'M
Git to go back TO hard roads, and had to
be employed for farm work or on mellow
ground ever after. Quite low stepping,
on the other hand, is to be avoided, as
the horse is likely to strike his foot
against any little rise of ground or OBJ
struction on the road and stumble badly,
often falling down in the harness and
endangering those riding in the vehicle
TO which he is attached to be upset and
perhaps fatally injured. A low stopper
travels more easily and is less fatigued
than those stepping higher. A medium
between the two is best and safest

Apples in q SilO.

a Massachusetts, farmer makes the
statement that when feeding his silo last
September he put into it, five or six feet
from the bottom at the back end, about
twenty bushels of large summer or fall
apples which have now been taken out
in fine condition and are greedilY eaten
by cattle. This report, taken in connec-
ton with the one published last week
announcing the success Of farmer in
SLIDING potatoes, goes to show that the
possibilities of the ensilage system are
as yet but partially understood. Cab
bages are hard to winter. Perhaps they,
too, will keep in silo.

Some New Varieties of Plums that Have
Been Tested-High CultivatiOn-Items
Worthy Of Note.

In a paper read before the American
Nurserymen's convention, by S. D. Will
lard. on opium Culture" occurred the
following statements of general interest:
With Che advent of the ''Wild Goose"
plum a new impetus seems to have been
given to the development Of new varie-
ties of plums, and the results have been
satisfactory and profitable, with the
probability that in the near future the
growing OF plums for market may be-
come one Of the great industries Of the
country. Under such conditions it may
be we'll as an association for us to learn
from each other what we can of varie-
ties being brought out and tested of this
most excellent fruit in our respective
localities.
OF some Of the new varieties tested
within the past few years, we have found
the following good enough to deserve
notice: The "Field" is much like BRAD
shaw" ripening little earlier, very pro-
ductive and inclining to bear early.
''Stanton's Seeding" fruit medium
size; color, dark purple, with beautiful
bloom; very productive; ripens from
Sept. 10 to Oct. 1, and has been kept
two weeks after ripening with no ten
dency to decay. As a fine canning fruit
it has no superior, and has fine quality as
a table fruit. The "Prince of Wales"
an English plum that sells well in mar
IIet, though not of the highest quality.
''Middleburg," resembling the prIne
somewhat, a good keeper, and promising
market variety. Shippers PRIDE" a
promising market plum. "Gueii," fruit
large. blush purple, covered with thick
bloom; flesh yellowish green, coarse,
sweet and pleasant; great bearer, and
very early; tree a hardy and rapid
grower This new variety is regarded as
very valuable for market growers along
the Hudson river. Vigorous grower.
First to the middle of September. One
of the best where market plum is want
ed of dark color. Peters Purple gage"
a fine yellow plum. Canada Orleans"
a purple sort, that handles well, and

and an annual bearer; very productive;
fruit medium; dark copper color, with a
rich bloom, and the best damson for
market purposes we have ever fruited;
ripens about two weeks later than Shrop-
shire.
Shropshire Damson-A plum of fine
quality, as free from the attacks of cur
culio as the common damson and of
came color and very productive.
The following new European varieties
are being tested, each of which promises
well and may prove valuable acquisi,

intelligence and labor OF the culturist.
Nature unaided is liberal producer, but
is wild in her methods and does not bring
forth her fruits in their best estate. So
il is that we talk of them as wild fruits,
wild grasses, wild flowers, ETC.; but
when their character has been changed
through cultivation we call them tame
grasses, grated fruits and garden flow
ers. The processes by which such changes
are made are often slow and laborious,
as is evidenced in the development of
tubers of marble size from South Amer
lean mountains into the unnumbered
splendid varieties of potatoes now grown
and the evolution of an almond of Persia
into the luscious peach.
The fact that it is in the power of the
gardener and orchardist to SO greatly i'm
prove the character of the productions
of nature is the chief encouragement to
persevering efforts in that direction,
without which there would be no induce
ments to cultivate at all. 1t thus be-
comes question of prime Importance
how the efforts of the agriculturist can
be most literally rewarded, and in its
successful answer lies the whole secret
of profitable farming, affirms the agri-
cultural editor of The World.
Whatever improvement may be made
in our productions in the future will
probably come about through a better
understanding and more intelligent use
of the methods now known rather than
through others that remain to be dis
covered. By cross fertilization and Gull
tivation great changes have been made
in the small fruits, and through budding
and grating the best varieties of the
larger ones are perpetuated. The fruit
from seeding trees is seldom any i'm
provement on its original stock, but oc-
casionally one of rare excellence appears,
to be entered on the list of the best, and
in this way the best have been derived.
1t must ever remain a mystery how it is
that the twig or bud when developed into
bearing tree preserves all the charac-
teristics of its parent stock, although de-
pendent on the stock and roots of a diff
ferent variety for its sustenance and ex-
istence

At the republican caucus last night Hon.

Deisem and H. w. Hoyt secretaries.
E. A. Williams, in nominating Governor
Pierce, said: sit is source of great pride
to us that he dwells among us. He is not
only our unanimous choice, but he is the
choice of all republicans. He has been
loyal as citizen, loyal as governor to
every interest of the people, and if elected
he will not only be a credit to North Da-
kota but to the senate.
Mr.. r. N. Stevens, in seconding the nomi-
nation of Mr.. Pierce, said he would be a
column of strength and wisdom to the new
state-equal to any statesman in the union.
He is experienced in public affairs. He
has never yet been found wanting in abil-

stands above and ahead of all others.
