Agriculture In Australia.

South Australian statistics, for 1892,

with 1674,OOO acres a year before,

an increase of nearly 5000 acres and

Destroying CaterpiIIars.

A writer for Orange Judd Farmer
says: A number Of years ago the or.
chard on our old homestead was liter
ally eaten UP by caterpillars. In au-
tumn they would crawl up the door.
step into the house, on rails, up trees
in the woods, and in fact everywhere
to pupate The moths would then lay
their eggs on the fruit trees where the
worms did the most damage. The
spring after 1 took possession, about
June when their nests were the size
of quart cup, I got up early in the
morning before the caterpillars were
out of their sleeping places, collected tn
nests and burned them. This must be
done before sunrise or some will be
out feeding, This method although
requiring some little work was very eff
fective. for since 1872 have not seen
a caterpillar on the place. If the work
is thoroughly done and persisted in for
several years, they can be completely
eradicated A small orchard can be
gone over in two or three mornings

ORIGIN of the Game of Billiards.

The English are very fond of the cur
ious game of billiards and letter has
been discovered In the British museum
which gives the origin of the national
sport. It was invented by London
pawnbroker, whose name was William
Kew. Kew not only lent money, but
he sold cloth, and for the latter purpose
had yard measure with which he used
to compute the amounts. One day to
distract himself he took the three round
balls which are the emblems Of his
trade-they may still be seen in front
of certain shops in London-and, plac-
ing them on his counter, began to hit
them about with his yard measure.
He found it made pretty game. He
got a kind of skill in making one ball
glance off the other, and his friends
who saw him thus engaged called the
game Bills yard. 1t was soon short
ened into billiards. But the yard was
the instrument with which the balls
were knocked about and the difficulty
arose what to call it. They called 1t
after the name of the pawnbroker-
a Kew.-London Figaro.

The Don9s of a Cheesemaker.

Don't begin making in the spring with
out you have everything in proper
shape for it.
Don't fail to give the making room
and curing room a thorough house
cleaning before beginning.
Don't fail to stop up all leaks in the
floor, and to get the hoops in perfect
order
Don't fail to thoroughly disinfect the
making and curing rooms early in the
spring. One part of bi-chloride of mer-
curry, mixed with 1000 parts of water,
and thoroughly sprayed about the
rooms, will answer the purpose, and
destroy the germ life.
Don't fail to thoroughly cleanse and
scald the whey tanks before the fresh
whey goes in, and to have it cleansed
at least once week during the season
Don't fail to send home any milk
that is not fit for making a first-class
article of cheese.
Don't fail to make the best quality
of cheese every day during the season.
Don't fail to have every cheese sym
metrical when turned out of the press,
and to have it properly boxed before
leaving the factory.

MAKE BELIEVE APPRECIATION

The Kind Generally Given TO Class
ical Music-Vanity the Prime Mover.
Il am tired of hearing people rave
over classical music" began James III.
Fuller to Globe-Democrat man. 1T
is certainly queer, but In classical music
you have actually something that is ex-
listing upon nothing more nor less than
the vanity of human nature. You can
say what you viii, vanity is the name
for 1t and nothing else. People have
an innate desire to make believe. They
want to appear what they are not.
Everybody does. If people cannot do
anything else they put on a black coat
and look wise, which places them in a
make-belieVe position and satisfies or
keeps their vanity from being wounded
No one will admit that he does not de-
sire to enjoy classical music. Every
body desires to. They have heard crit
les, who do not enjoy the classical rot
poured upon the world any more than
the commonest laborer say that beau
tiful songs are mere ballads and not
music. The critics have told them that
a series OF thumps and wild piano beat
ings make up classical music, and that
If they study a long time and have any
music in them they will understand and
enjoy 1t. Then when a reputed musi-
clan comes who Is well advertised, the
social world, filled with vanity and the
desire for appearances, rrlshes forward
fills great music halls and makes be-
neve that such music is grand and en-
Joyable. They hear sweet strain in
the great musicians playing, they begin
to think that it is pretty, when all at
once it is broken off by a series of wild
rot that Is no more musical than a
cracked doorbell. They credit the lat
ter with being classical, and applaud it
because some one else applauds it.
They don't enjoy it, Classical music
has never paid and never will. Grand
opera and choral symphonies have
never paid and never will. People do
not want it. Their ears have been
trained by a grander voice than that of
man-nature. Classical music doesn't
recall the signing voice of the wind nor
the ripple of the brook. It doesn't re-
peat the moan of pain we have all
heard, nor the music of the laugh. You
can't string out such voices through a
long half-hour of humping, Let the
make-believers and the praise-seekers
open their ears and they will hear in
the simple ballads of any nation more
OF real soul-inspiring music than exists
at present in the hundreds of volumes
of classical so-called music for which
they pay

The Instinct OF Locality Not Cone
lined to the Four-Footed Creation.
A cat carried a hundred miles In a

XVI.


The swamps of Dreauville, with mod
arn industry win soon transform into
,ity, extend along the left bank of the
Tongues between two ranges of wood
I'd hills. As the matin bells called the
1evout for prayer, the dog-cart in
which we were seated was driven
across the river and into sort of sheep
old surrounded by poplar trees.
I'VE descend here" said our guide,
Who had not before spoken. He un-
larnessed his horse, gave him some
provender, and handed each of us a
louble-barreled gun and some ammu-
lition.
Go on" he said to his dog, who had
followed the carriage. The creature re-
piled by a joyous bark, and bounded
away as If to show us our path. Fol-
owing him, we soon reached a retired
spot, where Anthime made halt.
II think this will suit our purpose, I"
remarked Barbejean.
Admirably" said Stephen. The guns
were loaded and the ground measured.
Il will not leave message for Alice,
since, if I fall, my death is to be ac-
credited to accident But you will be
Ter friend and protector if such should
De my fate"
''You and Marasca are to go to the
top of that hill, where you will fire
two shots. At the first we will take
our guns, at the second we can use
them"
The spaniel, who had been watching
his master closely, suddenly rose and
put his paws on his shoulders.
Lie down, sir!'
Poor Ban obeyed, but uttered pitt
full cry. When we reached the spot
designated, Maraska fired the first shot,
md after waiting what seemed an age,
gave the second signal.
Stephen fired, and we saw Barbe-
jeans gray hat, struck by the ball, roll
IN the grassy plain.
"Wen DONE" said Anthime stolidly,
now it is my turn" and he slowly
raised his gun. But he suddenly ex-
claimed, mo, it would grieve her too
nuch," and he discharged his gun at
/ rabbit which ran by.
Marasca and I rushed down, thank
ng him as we ran. Stephen, pale with
shame cried, '"Take another gun, Bar
oejean, l will not accept your gener-
Jsity."
II was insulted," said Barbejean,
calmly, land I am satisfied; but in fut-
ire do not mock at those who have not
lad the good fortune to receive the
anne education as yourself" Then
picking up his hat, he disappeared
whistling for his dog to follow.
