eIsuLPHlDs OF CARBON.
The Most Reliable and safest Remedy
Against Gram Weeyils.

Against Gram NeeNitss
Prof. Riley declares that the use of
bisulphide of carbon against different
insects attacking stored grain has
greatly increased in this country since
he first recommended it some thirteen
wears ago. There is, however, consid-
cradle diversity in the method of using
it and the recommendation of some Of
our writers have evidently been made
with no sense of the fact that the
fumes are heavier than air and descend
rather than ascend. Prof. A. III. Church
in a recent number of the Kew Bulle-
tin records that he found that one and
one-half pounds of bisulphide is enough
to each ton of grain. lie advises that
it be applied in the following way: y
ball of tow is tied to stick of such a
length that ii can reach the middle of the
vessel containing the grain. The tow
receives the charge of bisulphide, like
a sponge. and is then at once plunged
into the vessel and left there, the mouth
or opening of the vessel then be-
ing tightly closed When npc-
essary, the stick may be with
drawn and the charge (of one ounce
to one hundred pounds of grain may
be renewed The action of carbon BIZ
sulphide lasts in ordinary cases six
weeks, after which period fresh
charge is required. The bisulphide
does no harm to the grain as regards its
color, smell or cooking properties and
the terminating power of most seeds is
not appreciably affected, provided that
not too much is used. nor its action con-
tinued for too long period.
The assistant director of agriculture
of Burmah is reported to have used
naphthaline instead of bisulphide in
the following way, but Prof. Riley
would not expect, he says, anything
like rs good results from the naphtha-
line as from the bisulphide: A-hollow
bamboo cylinder one and one-half
inches in diameter with a stick fitted
into the cavity is pushed down to the
bottom of the bin, the stick is then
withdrawn and few teaspoonfuls of
naphthaline powder is poured into the
bamboo. which is then drawn out leav-
ing the naphthaline at the bottom of
the bin. If the bins are very large this
should be done once to every ten feet
square and the application should be
repeated every fifteen or twenty days.

Two singular showers.

On Saturday, November /, 1882, there
was shower of peculiar-shaped seeds
over an area of several square miles in
the vicinity of Statesburg $. c. The
shower began about 1880 a. m, and
was noted for twelve miles in one direc-
ton and about seven and half miles in
the other. In the enter of the district
over which they fell the ground was al
most covered; the noise made by them
as they fell on the leaves much resem-
bling that made by fine sleet. When
examined under the microscope these
seed, like granules, appeared wholly
different from any seeds known to
botanists of that part of South Caro-
lima In the following month, Decem-
Der, 1882, Huntington, Ind. and vicinity
was treated to shower of strange
worms. They were only about the
fourth of an inch in length, and about
the diameter of small sewing needle.
In some places they fell in such album
dance as TO cover the snow and ice to
the depth of nearly half an inch

EASTER MONDAY.

some Quaint sports i'm Olden Times-Ths
Tansy Cake.
ON Easter Monday in olden times the
principal sport was ball playing, and
even the clergy and women INDUCED in
the pastime In many instances il
formed part of the church service,
bishops and deans taking ball to church
and at the beginning of the anthem,
while dancing to the music, threw it to
the choristers, who handed it back and
forth to one another during the sing
ing. After this service they all retired
for refreshments, which usually con-
sisted of dish of bacon and tansy pud-
ding.
An old rhyme referring TO these GUS
toms reads somewhat as follows:
At stool ball. Lucia. let play.
For sugar. cakes or wine,
Or for tansy let Us pay
The loss be thine or mine.
II thou. my dear, winner be.
AT twirling Of the ball,
The wager thou shalt have, and me
And my misfortunes ALL"
Another Easter Monday game was
running a race for tansy cake. just
why these singular sports should have
been CONSIDERED appropriate 10 the
Easter festivities the wise ones fail to
tell us
The playing at ball or running race
for a tansy cake might-very likely
did-have its foundation in desire 20
keep alive the memory of the bitter
herbs at the paschal feast, though some
old writers ignore any spiritual mean
ing. and one speaks of tansy cakes in
this wise:
I'm the springtime they are made
with the leaves hereof newly-sprung
