WIEN re- ELL Ba1AHs AND BUSHES,

The idea that there is d certain time
in tbs moons age when briars, bushes
and noxiots plants are more easily killed
than 1t others is now very generally re.
garded as fallacious. II is, however,
true that when cut in the season of their
most active growth they are more liable
to die than when cut in the winter.
The reason is that a far greater proper
ton of the sap and vitality of the plant
being above ground and thus cut off and
destroyed, there is a smaller power for
recovery left chan there would be # the
cutting had occurred at a season when
the growth lie suspended, with the vi,
tally largely in the roots. According
to this, the cutting of briars and bushes
during the summer months is likely to
be the most effective. One cutting,
however, is seldom enough for those most
troublesome and persistent in their
growth.--New York World.
sULFHATE OF COPPER FOR SMUT IN GRAIN.
By soaking seed wheat in a weak so.
luton of copper, the dreaded smut can
be averted. the sulphate of copper is
used at the rate of one pound to 400
pounds of wheat. seed, and is prepared
by d~issolving in warm water. The
wheat should be in sacks whica will adj
NIT the water, SO that all the grain may
get the benefit of the soaking. Three
or four minutes is all the time required
fol- the wheat to become thoroughly
saturated, and when the sack is taken
out of the mixture it should be placed in
a draining trough to allow the water to
escape. When the water in the barrel
gets too low more Can be added, aud to
keep UP the strength of the solution
more sulphate of copper should be dis
solved and poured in the barrel now and
then. This is not only a remedy for the
smut in wheat, but for all grains subject
to this disease. The sulphate of cop.
per, also known as blue -%itriol, is poi
sonous, and care should be taken that
the stock get none of it, otherwise it
might prove fatal. 1t does not seem to
have any ill.efect on poultry aud pigs.
This remedy is in great use in the Pacific
States. --American Farmer.

TIE ROBEY PRIZE FIGHTS.
Lake COunty's Sheriff Wants Some More
Pointers-The Governors Action.

Governor Matthews has been informed
by the sheriff of Lake county shat he has
two men under arrest there for partici-
pating In the Robey prize fight, and the
letter was written to inquire If the Gov
ernor has any further instructions about
the fight that is soon to como off in the
grounds of the Columbi Club. Governor
Matthews. being in Chicago, is unable to
give the matter personal Atten tion. and il is
not probable that he will return until about
the 2Sth inst. The former effort of the
State authorities to interfere resulted only
