Clumps of chapparal abounded. and

THE PEAR TREE SLUG.
When and Where IL Begins It's Work and
How to Destroy 1t.

When and where It Begins Its Work and
How to Destroy 1t.
The pear tree slug begins II work
about the middle of June or first OF
July. 1t works on the upper side of
the leaf, eating out the tissue and leav-
ing only the under skin and veins In
this manner it will sometimes destroy
all the foliage of pear or cherry trees.
The insect passes the winter in the
pupa state in the ground, the flies. the
progenitors of the miscellaneous brood
of slugs, appearing in May or June in
the northern states. The female is a
little over one-fifth of an inch long, and
the male is a little smaller. When the
trees on which these flies are working
are disturbed, they fall to the ground,
and folding up their antenne, they re-
main motionless for awhile.
The female deposits her eggs carly in
June. in the leaves, in Sits made with
a saw-like appendage at the end of her
body, which cuts through the skin of
the leaf. In about two weeks these
eggs hatch into little white slugs,
which are not Shiny at first, but the
Shiny matter oozes out of the skin after

DRAFT OF WAGONS.


Resent Expsrinssts ovsreArow May As,
esptsd Ceaclasions-
Tests by Prof. Sanborn. of the Utah
experiment station, tend TO overthrow
many accepted conclusions on this sub
ject The following summary is taken
from the bulletin:
When the load was placed over the
hind wheels it drew 10 per cent easier
than when IL was placed ever the front
wheels
The mind wheels drew - per cent
easier over an obstacle three inches
high than the front wheels. This was
when attachment of the force was
directly applied to each set OF wheelA
The hind wheels, when drawn over
an obstacle by the usual hitch. drew
only LIZ per cent easier than the fore
wheels.
When the ends of the wagon we're
reversed and the draft was applied d.
rectiy to the hind wheels 1t drew near.
ly per cent easier.
The incline of the reach toward the
front wheels. as now put in, causes the
wagon to draw harder than it should
Lowering the reach or the point OF
application of force upon the hind
wheels materially decreases the draft;
therefore the reach should run horizon.
tally or on an upward incline from the
rear TO the front wheels.
Higher front wheels will reduce draft
The change of the angle of draft, rs
applied from the end of the pole, varied
the draft very markedly and the rela-
ton of the draft of the front to the rear
wheels.
A long hitch, or such n hitch as oc-
ours when lead horses are used, in.
creases draft
Loose burrs with one-half or more
| inches play lessen the draft of the load
Little difference was found between
the draft of three wagons.
Draft varied with the varieties oil
grease used, from nothing to IL pei
cent-lard proving the best, or prac
tically the same as manufactured
axle grease, and but little better than
| cylinder oil
The draft of varying roads and con.
dition of roads varied very markedly
being between the best and the poores,
classes of local roads nearly 500 pei
| cent in difference. In this trial neither
the best nor the poorest roads were
available-only such rs are found in
country towns.

Renting q Flat to q Woman In Not an
Easy Matter.
"Most women are easy suited as to
houses and flats" said Harlem real

New York correspondent of the st.
Louis Post-Dispatch. 'sThere are a
few, it is true, who object to very small
things and will refuse to take q house
if they find fy-speck on the door

can always come to some agreement
with q woman who really wants

"I thought the contrary was the
fact" said.
"Not at all. For instance, there was
a woman who came here for a nice

has been on my hands for seven
