What is popularity known as the "elm
Tree bug" is peculiarly destructive this
year, says the New York Tribune, and
unless something is done to stay its
ravages it will not be many years before
the elm will become extinct. The in
sect is not caterpillar, as many people
suppose, but species of the great family
of eating beetles known as chrysomellans.
The particular family to which the elm
tree bug belongs is the galeruca calmar-
iensis, and only within the last few years
has it been at all numerous in this coun-
try. In 1S47, in his report to the Massachu-
setts legislature, DR.. Harris said: "They
live and feed together in swarms, and
sometimes appear in very great numbers
on the leaves of plants, committing raw
ages at these times as extensive as those
of the most destructive caterpillars.
This was the case in 1887 at Sevres in
France, and in 1888 and 1889 in Baltimore
and it's vicinity, where the elm trees
were entirely stripped of their leaves DUR
ing midsummer by swarms of galeruca
calmariensis; and in 1.-The latter aplace,
after the trees had begun to revive and
were clothed with fresh leaves, they
were again attacked by new broods OF
these noxious grubs. These insects,
which were undoubtedly introduced into
America with the European elm, are
as yet unknown in the New England
States. The eggs of the galerucians are
generally laid in little clusters of rows
along the veins of the leaves, and those
of the elm galeruca are generally of a
yellow color. y
These insects have been particularly
destructive to elms in the suburbs of
New York this summer. Not only have
thousands of them been on the trees, but
in many cases the fences under the trees
have been literally covered with them.
Before it becomes beetle the insect
is dark-colored worm about half an
inch in length. When they are seen in
this state, crawling on the trunk of the
tree, they have passed their mischlevous
stage. They were Matched on the leaves
of the tree, where the mother beetle laid
them, circumstance which shows the
futility Of treating the trunk to a coat
of tar as a preventive. They remain on
the leaf until they are full grown, when
they crawl down the trunk of the tree,
in order to find in the crevices OF the
bark place where they may remain dur
ing theira.chrysalis state. Many people
have not known this, and have spent
much time in killing the insects on the
tree trunks, under the idea that they
were helping the tree. The insects they
kill have already done the damage. Ut
must, however, be seen that every worm
that is destroyed prevents thousands of
eggs that would otherwise be laid the
next year by the perfect insect There
fore destroy the worms.) Entomologists
who know the habits the insects say
that the only way to protect the elm
from it is to squirt strong solution of
tobacco juice on the leaves. Apparent
ly no bird care to eat the galerucian;
the English sparrow let's it severely
lone. In it's last state the insect becomes
a small beetle about quarter of an
in Oh in Length or about the size of GU
cumber beetlen It's wings have yellow
covers with black stripe along the mid
die outer edge.

The Horses to Raise For Profit.

There are but two kinds of horses for
farmers and small breeders to proftably
raise now, and these are the highest
types of light harness horse and the
heaviest draft horse that can be pro-
duced, with quality, high finish, action
and good bone. These kinds may be
raised at good profit if the business is
conducted with proper care and the
right kind of breeding stock is procured
to start with. To commence right the
best material is very important for a
breeder.
If farmers want to raise light harness
stock, let themlaim to raise coach or car
rage horses, found their principles of
breeding on individuality. knee action,

Cost of a Chicken.


Under ordinary conditions chicks
ought to be Matched, making fair allow
ance for value of eggs and food for sit
ting hens, at a cost of less than five cents
apiece. The highest cost per pound gain
during any week, while growing chicks
to 81 pounds average weight, was less
than seven cents, and the cost averaged
much less than six cents. At the prices
generally obtained for chicks of this and
lesser weights the growth was certainly
a profitable one. With chicks having
the liberty of the fields, it seems reason
able to expect still cheaper production
Of meat, and it would appear that a
profitable use for some of the skimmilk
Of the farm would be in the growing of
chicks for home use or for the market.
An unlimited supply of sweet skim
milk can apparently be given to chickens
with advantage, but sour milk must be
fed with caution. Where sour milk only
is available it is best to coagulate thor
oughly by moderate heating and feed
only the curd, straining out as much of
the whey as possible.-New York Agri-
cultural Experiment Station. Bulletin.

better than the steerage passenger.

CoTswoLD YEARLINa EVE

COTSWOI.D YEARLINH EVE.
Our first illustration shows yearling
eve Of the ever popular old Cotswold
family.
The Cotswold is white faced sheep,
especially valued in the northwest. It
belongs to the long wooded family. The
rams are hornless. A full grown Cots
void wether sometimes weighs when
dressed for market 344 pounds, while
the ewes shear II pounds Of wool to q
fleece occasionally.
Fig. shows a yearling Shropshire ram.
This is almost a perfect specimen of the
young Shropshire ram. At a year old
this animal weighed 800 pounds. Shrop-
shires have black or dark faces and legs,
sometimes spotted with gray. They have
wool of medium weight, length and fine
ness. Prize Shropshire rams in England
have sometimes sold for as high as $3.50.
