An Easy way to Keep insects OF Trees.

To trap various insects in the open
cir, half fill wide feciced bottles with
strip or sweetened water, adding enough
arsenic to make the liquid poisonous.
After rainstorm the bottles should be
ernptiea and re6lled, as before mentioned
Hang the bottle on the branches of the

to oratory and railroading, however,
but to agriculture and livestock
breeding. He is a Liberal in politics
and at one time was royal commits
sioner Of agriculture. He is chiefly
admired among his fellow country
men because he breeds the champion
animals for the public bull fights at
Madrid. The Veragua bulls are the
most ferocious and famous of all
those that appear in the ring in
Spain1among the most savage that
ever killed their man or horse before
the eyes of a delighted audience. A
thousand dollars is a not uncommon
price for the Duke. of Veragua t.

is a good flnancier, and partly from
ancestral estates, partly from live
stock breeding and other business
operations not beneath the notice OF
. noble duke, he has managed to
accumulate an annual income as
large as the salary of the president
OF the United States.

Many microbes that have been dis.

which are heavier than water in their

an inventor has devised a centrifugal
machine which will get rid of
microbes in liquids by a whirling
process. Gravity separates the mi
crobes from the liquid during this
process, 80 that il is rendered pure.
Milk, water and other liquids are
thus purified:

There will be at least one man
whose travelling expenses in con-
nection with Worlds Fair prepare
ton no man will grudge. That is
Professor Fernow, chief of the United
States bureau of forestry. He has
gone to Germany to procure a
forestry exhibit for the exposition.
Germany takes ARE of her forests
better than any other nation, and
Professor Fernow's exhibit will
illustrate to Americans how this is
done. The administration Of forest
government and the methods of
replanting, thinning and preserving
woods will all be laid before us in an
object lesson that none should fail to
take in.
