The n OF WAFER Remedies.

1t appears that Prof. d. O. Kellogg, of
Fineland, has been experimenting with hot
water as an insectleide, and hat the atten-
ton of Prof. John B. Smith, the State
Bntomologist, has been called to the ex-
periments with the results as stated in the
following letter I o Mr.. Kellogg:
NEW JERSEY AGRICULTURAL
COLLEGE EXPERIMENT STATION,
New BRUNSWICK, n. j., June ~, 81 }
Dear Sr-We gave your bot water REM
edy a very full aud careful test, and failed
to get satisfactory practical results. There
was nc damage to plant life at the temper
atures we succeeded in getting on and
the spraying was done from boiling
hot water, goo at least. But
on the other hand neither did we in
jure the insects. Immersed in it at any
temperature from 1875 degrees up they
never recovered. Sprayed, they dropped
as 500 as they were touched by it and it
proved practically impossible to get them
wet with water hot CROUCH to harm them.
We tried it several times when there were
plenty of insects and always with similar
results. Yet withal hot water is the most
effective material tried, and perhaps the
mechanical difficulties may be s%urmounted.

The prevailing weather conditions OF
last week, as reported by the crop cores
pondents of the State Weather Service,
were most favorable 10 the growth
and maturing of all crops, and also fol-
transpianting and cultivation. Wheat and
rye ripened very fast, and cutting has
been quite general during the past week
in all the districts. The condition of these
cereals is reported to be above the average.
The warm weather following the rains has
greatly helped corn, which has made q
rapid growth during the week and the
stand is much improved.
In the northern counties a general lack
of sunshine las reported, cloudy weather
generally prevailing, as also an uneven
distribution of rainfall. In these counties
orchard fruits are still in a promising con-
dition. In the middle counties, especial
ly Somerset, a lack of rainfall is seriously
affecting the growing crops. Reports
from the southern and western counties
continue favorable, the rainfall there be-
ing above the ayerage, greatly beneitting
all crops.
Professor Halstead reports that the
blackberry vines in some sections of South
ern Jersey are badly attacked with a fun
gus known as anthracnose, oil perhaps
more commonly known as blight, and on
this account the crop will there be light,
perhaps not more than a half of the usual
amount

True Words.

No truer words were ever put in cold
type than the following, clipped from an
exchange:
A newspaper, if it has any brains, con-
science, and muscle back of it. must CON
tinually decide between doing its duty and
injuring its pocket. III any position but
that of an editor the public is able to sep
arate the individual home from the col
lective citizen. But if the editor does not
please them, it's his pocket they aim at.
Thus it is that newspapers learn who their
friends are. The man who reads a news
paper and admires it all the year round,
yet gives his business supper to some
other concern, whose principles he detests,
is not a friend to the former paper. Ad-
mi-ation alone will not run a
Sooner or later such admirers will find
that the object of their affections has be-
come welded to other ways that they do
not admire-in other wolds, a newspaper
is compelled, in order to live, to seek the
friendship of those who are not SO p~latonic
in their love, but unite that practical es-
TEEN which sentiment binds mutual ad-
miration in their professions. There are
too many men who expect an editor to
slave in defense of their pet notions and
hobbies, advocate their views against the
strongest opposition and coolly withhold
the business support by which alone a
small newspaper can live. Talk about a
newspaper having a public duty to per-
form. and an editor having to labor for his
principles, is cheap when Others stand
back and, while extending a lukewarm
neutrality with u hand. are filling their
pockets with the other band as a result oil
the editors labors for his principles, which
they admire but do not support.

We take from the Elmer Times the fol-
lowing sketch of the life of Rev. J. G..
Crate, whose death occurred at Elmer last
week:
Joseph G.. Crate was born September
IS, 1880, in Hunterdon county. His father
was a blacksmith without means TO give
his son the education for which he eraved,
but this did not prevent him from gaining
his end, and by his own exertions he OBJ
tanned the funds which educated him. He
then entered Rutgers college taking a
course in classics, which gave him the
reputation that has clung to him of being
one of the NEST learned men in the Con-
ference in Latin and Greek. The degree
Of A. NJ. was also conferred upon him at
that college. Mr.. Crate was converted at
the age of IS years and at the age of %
he entered the ministry. His principal
charges were atMillville, Barnegat, Sharp
town, P~ennsgrove, Pemberton, BridgetoD,
H~addonfeld, Winsor, Paulsboro, Moores-
town, Absecop, New Egypt, Mattawan,
WoodstowD, Mays Landing. On the lat.
ter field he preached to four congregations,
and it's exacting demands compelled him
during the winter months to preach nearly
every night. After occupying this field
about a year he suecumbed to paralysis
and left the active ministry and located IN
Elmer where he purchased a comfortable
home, which be occupied at his death.
During the greater part of his life Mr..
Crate contributed freely to the religious
and secular press, and wrote a book on
Sabbath work, which was appreciated BY
its readers. He has written other books
which however were reyer put in print. Al
the time the Woodstown MONITOR was
started Mr.. Crate was one of its mosl
earnest well wishers and worked hard fol
its success. He was always actively iden-
titled with the temperance cause and q
staunch Piohibitionist. Speaking from
human standpoint Brother Crate never
attained the position in the church fol
which he was by education, piety ant
ability fitted. He was an active membel
of the Order of Free Masons, and when biz
infrmities allowed him to attend their
communications he was in his happies
mood. Deceased leaves an estimable wife
a daughter and three sons to mourn his loss
