Is That very snort person even can

CLOVER LEAF HOPPER. (Agailia San

mis- along the midribs of the leaves at
this time The Larvae much resemble
the adults, except that they are small
or and nearly white in color BY the
LIST Of July they are mature. The young
in all stages appear from this time on
until late in autumn, and the new
adults doubtless begin egg laying in
July or August, and the larvae
Of the first brood are ma
turing through July, August and
possibly September. The earliest
adults of the second brood might have
time to lay and produce third brood
during the year, though that is hardly
probable. When feeding, the insects
insert their beaks into the stems of the
leaves, and often remain motionless
for hours at a time, sucking up the
juices of the plant. Sometimes they
also feed upon the leaf blades, Their
incessant drains often cause the clover
to wilt, and unless the supply Of mois-
ture is ample this must soon destroy
the plants From their mum bers and
feeding capacity they are likely to
prove one of the most destructive OF
clover insects. Where it is necessary
to undertake, remedial measures, draw
hopper dozer over the field just after
the first clover cutting in July. This
dozer consists Of long, shallow
trough. with some sort of a guard be-
hind it to prevent the insects from hop
ping over it. Into the trough thin
coating IF coal tar or water with thin
layer Of oil upon it is poured. Attach
a rope to either end, and drag itup and
down the field. The clover hopper, to-
gether with large numbers of other
harmful insects, will hop into the tar
and stick, or be smothered by the oil
upon the water.

The Early Home.

1t has been said, THE Preside is a
seminary of infinite Importance" Few
can receive the honors of college, but
all are graduates of the home. The
learning of the university may fade
from the recollection, its classic lore
may moulder in the halls of memory,
but the simple lessons of home im-
pressed upon the heart Of childhood,
defy the rust of years. and outlive the
more mature but less vivid pictures of
after years. Those of you who are
best acquainted with the world, or
who have read most extensively the
histories Of men, will allow that, in the
formation of character, the most tell:
ing influence is the early home 1t Is
that home which often in childhood
has formed beforehand our most famous
scholars, our most celebrated heroes,
our most devoted missionaries, and, in
deed, the faithful toilers in all worthy
vocations. Banner of Gold

DESTROYING INSECTS.


How to Outgeneral the Pests Which Play
Havoc with Our Crops.
Various important points in farm
practice, which if carried out would do
much toward reducing injury from in
sects, are specified in Bulletin IS of the
New Jersey experiment station Fall
blowing is influential in controlling
certain pests, especially the lice, borers
and striped beetles of the squash and
melon. If blowing in the fall be mex
pedient the next best thing is to turn
the soil as early in spring as possible.
Rotation of crops prevents increase of
many destroyers by depriving them of
their normal food; crops attacked by
the same insects should not succeed
each other. Tomatoes after corn is
bad, for both are injured by the same
'"worm." Clean culture is insisted
upon, for many insects remain during
the winter in the rubbish of the field;
it is safe rule to clear off the remains
Of crop and burn them. Orchard
trees. may be much benefited by re-
mofing the loose dead bark and old
branches, thus dispensing with one of
the means for insect Information.
Fruit that is wormy should lie fed to
swine. One crop on@ the soil at any
time is enough; well-nourished plants
are better able to resist attacks of
some insects than those half starved.
The date of planting is an impor.
tant element in This connection;

BODILY TOLERANCE.
Tho Efforts Put Forth by Nature to r..
pair Injuries.


pair Injuries.
1, The body is more tolerant of injury
than most people think. Every one is
familiar with the fact that bullet
lodged deep in the flesh does not in all
cases cause serious trouble Nature
prevents irritation by surrounding the
ball with sort of sac, in which condi-
ton it is said to be 'encysted." In this
case the comparative smoothness of the
object favors it's encystment; but the
same thing may occur with no such IA
voring condition.
A man had been badly lacerated in
the leg by broken glass The wounds
healed under treatment but some
what uncomfortable feeling remained,
and in walking. the man was unable to
bring his foot squarely to the ground.
About three years later an increase
in this uncomfortable feeling, together
with a stiffness and pain in the knee
joint, led him to enter a hospital where
deep incision in the neigh borhood of
the old scar revealed a fragment of
window glass one inch wide and two
inches long.
A sharp corner projected into the
cavity OF the thigh joint Three small
er fragments were found imbedded
deeper in the tissues. In each case the
fragment was surrounded by a mass of
tough tissue, which acted like the pro-
tective sac around the i'm bedded ball.
So effectual was this hardened tissue
in protecting the adjacent parts that
there was neither pus nor the slightest
Inflammation. The man left the hos
pital well on the ninth day, and the leg
subsequently proved to be as sound as
the other.
Another case is in some respects still
more remarkable A lady, while eat
ing a piece of pie, fell into terrible
fit of coughing. A physician could find
no cause for the trouble, and thought
that whatever foreign substance had
produced it had been swallowed; but
the patient insisted that there was still
some obstruction which not only
cholSed her, but impaired her power OF
speech. Y.
For six weeks she remained nearly
speechless and under constant treat
ment. After that time she slightly i'm.
proved in health and voice, but without
permanent relief. At length, nearly
two years after the accident Doctor
Ransom, of New York, was consulted,
and removed piece of glass from the
larynx, hanging between the vocal
cords. 1t was triangular in shape, and
measured on it's three edges seven
eighths of an inch. one inch, and one
and quarter inches respectively
The woman's voice at once improved
and the irritation mainly disappeared,
though slight swelling remained.
Thus the permanent results were ex-
fceedingly slight, though so big frag-
ment of glass had remained in the
larynx for year and nine months
